“Rod and I have been really pleased with the improvement in Hallie’s confidence and happiness around maths since she has started at NEC – still the occasional melt down but it is brilliant to hear her tell people “I do still find maths really hard but my tutor has helped me a lot and I felt much better about it now.”

Kathryn Booth- Bilgola Plateau Public School

“Jorja has really enjoyed her time coming to tutoring each week, and her confidence in maths has definitely grown. If she falls behind at all in the future or needs some extra help, you will be the first that I call.
Thank you to you and your wonderful tutors, for making her realise that maths really isn’t a scary monster!”

“Sharyn has been helping my girls since mid 2014, the older of which still sees her weekly.  Without Sharyn’s incredible support my girls, particularly my older girl, would not be where they are today.  Sharyn is an asset to my girl’s education as both of them have struggled with learning at certain times.  As parents we can not thank her enough for her dedication and professionalism and for her ongoing support and assistance.  No words can described the level of appreciation we have for what she has done for our girls.

“My children have been with Newport Education Centre for 5 years and I have always found Sharyn and her team to be helpful and understanding. The feedback they give is always very knowledgeable and professional.”

Fiona Griffith – Pittwater High School

“Our daughters’ ability and confidence in maths has improved significantly in the 2 years she has attended NEC.  Her first term in particular gave her some exceptional steps forward (steps that she wasn’t getting from her previous tutoring centre) and she has steadily built on this.  As a working parent, I really appreciate the efficiency & punctuality of the NEC operation.  Whilst maths may never be her favourite subject, it is fantastic that our daughter can start high school feeling confident and light hearted about a subject that previously caused anxiety and upset.”

“NEC has helped my reading a lot and Lyn is really nice and helpful.”

Max Ryan (Student) –Narrabeen North Primary School

“I enjoy attending NEC, I have gained confidence in a friendly environment. I have always been given full support with my studies.
I feel the tutor knows me very well and brings out the best in my approach to my studies.”

Grace Powers (Student) – Northern Beaches Christian School

“We are now heading towards the end of our second year at Newport Education Centre and we are so pleased with our son’s progress.  He has come along “leaps and bounds” since attending his tutoring twice a week.
Sharyn is a warm and friendly teacher who always speaks so lovely to him.  She is patient, understanding and incredibly professional at all times. Maintaining a child’s self confidence is so important and he feels like he is getting better and better each week.  He’ll often run out of tutoring to the car with a merit certificate and a big smile on his face! We are all very proud of how hard he tries and what he is achieving. Thank you Sharyn!

Fiona, O’Connor – Mona Vale

I would like to express my appreciation to the team at Newport Education Centre for giving both my children confidence in their abilities with studying maths.
Before they started tutoring they struggled and were in the bottom maths classes. Now our children are thriving and have improved tremendously.
Thank you once again to Sharyn and her professional team.

Cathy Fitz-Roy – St Lukes Grammar School

“According to Amber, her lessons with Janet have been very helpful and she feels it has certainly made her more confident. I wanted to mention that Amber has actually started reading! Somehow I think your little encouragement remark during our interview, might have triggered something as she has read at least six books since the beginning of term. Hopefully that will continue! Thanks so much!”

“Just a note to let you know Lani got 94% in her latest maths topic test! Thank you so much for her tutoring and for fitting her in. She and I are so, so happy with her results. Your centre is brilliant!

I am so proud of Bodie and his improved writing! He is so happy to come home and tell me how well he has been doing!”

Johnnie Rose – Bilgola Plateau Primary School

“Sharyn is a very nice and caring and when you need help with anything she is always there to help you. Even when you are in a dark place with your marks, Sharyn is always there to explain things and help. The staff at NEC are amazing. I have met nearly all of them after being there for nearly 5 years and they have all helped me succeed in the classes that I am not very good at. I would not be the place that I am at now without them. Thanks Sharyn!”

“Lyn is my favourite teacher and she helps me with my reading and maths.  I really like going to tutoring.”

Natalie Ryan – (Student) Narrabeen North Primary School

NEC has been a great support to us as parents. The tutors are able to tackle the students work and help them with their studies.
As a family we have always received professional feedback from NEC. My children have always enjoyed attending and have benefited especially in preparation for the HSC.

Verity Powers – Bayview

“I just want to say thank you so much for all the help Emily has been given with her maths. She just sent me a message with her yearly exam result and got 80/95. From failing at the beginning of the year to this amazing result now! Thanks so much!”

Sarah Ryan – Narrabeen

Since we’ve had 2 of our kids at Newport Education Centre we have noticed such an improvement in their academic progress and confidence.
Both of them love attending the sessions and always have a smile on their face when the walk out.
The staff have been fantastic, very understanding as to what is specifically needed to allow and help the kids to reach their potential. We couldn’t ask for anything else. Thank you!

“Thank you to you and to Janelle for the guidance and support you have both provided Grace this year, it has been most beneficial.
Grace’s writing has improved and she was thrilled to learn that she received 100% in an end-of year maths test on data! She will be starting high school with a great deal more confidence than she had at the beginning of this year.”

Nicole Mackee- Cromer Public School

“I just wanted to let you know, that thanks to all the fabulous help from Bridget, Ben won the Grammarian Award for Creative Writing at Oxford Falls Grammar’s Awards Night. We were absolutely thrilled as the “story” he submitted was judged the best out of all students from Years 7 to 10 (with Ben being in Year 8)! Please pass on to Bridget this wonderful news and our thanks!

”We especially really appreciate the confidence you and Angela have given George.  He really has changed his approach to learning, an invaluable lesson.”

Katrina & Jeremy Davis- Newport Public School

“What great feedback from the student’s questionnaire!
Well done to all the teachers.”

Finnie Staples – Warriewood

“I have just completed my HSC and without Angela’s assistance I would have found English much more challenging.”

Susie Griffith- (Student) Pittwater High School

“My tutoring has improved my test scores and how I understand maths out of sight.  I have learnt so much and changed from failing to getting really high scores.  My tutor makes it a fun way to learn more about maths.  I enjoy the subject more and have fun doing it.”

Emily Ryan (Student) – Mackellar Girls Campus

My daughter was an average student, but she never really knew how to study for her exams. When we started going to NEC the first thing she learnt was how to organise her school work so she wasn’t stressing with last minute cramming for exams. This made such a difference to her results and she was calmer and more confident.
She also said ‘it is nice to have the teacher explain how to do something in a different way and that I can ask questions without feeling silly in front of my classmates”
We would highly recommend NEC to any student.”

Cherie and Syra Lovett Newport – Mater Maria College

“I like Sharyn because she helps with my homework and all the things that I struggle with.”

Emmett O’Connor (Student) – St Lukes Grammar

“I just wanted to let you know that Joel managed to get a scholarship to St Luke’s, so thanks for your help with the pre test course. It gave us the chance to sit down and really practice all those general ability reasoning tests that he found hard when he first tried them with you. We’re very happy.
Thanks again for your help – it made all the difference.”

Sharon Leifer – Clareville.

Just wanted to let you know Steph got the best English result she’s ever had! In Semester 1 her ranking was 70/84. In Semester 2 her ranking was 58/82! She has worked really well with Leila – I truly hope she will be able to help Steph again next year!
Please pass on my gratitude to Leila for all her hard work with Steph this semester.
