Kip McGrath Education Centre
We have been very fortunate to get great tutors, including teachers with Early and Middle Years training through to a teacher with a Masters Degree in Maths. As a result we help from preppies upwards (i.e. any student who needs reading, literacy and numeracy intervention or extension). We have been working closely with some schools and community groups to assist identified students with tutoring. If anyone at the school would like to discuss how we work or find out more about the tutoring we can provide to support kids, feel free to contact us. My phone number is 0437260434.
We would love to work with schools and teachers as partners to achieve great outcomes for all the kids in our area.
