To make sure your student is assured of success, the Cluey Education Team has an ever-expanding bank of resources as well as units ready to support essays, oral presentations, creative and persuasive writing - as well as grammar and spelling to give that final polish. If you're looking for assistance or extension in Year 8, our tutors are ready to help.
In Year 9, your child will be engaging in higher order reasoning and increasing abstraction. It's a great chance for students to consider their own position in the world as a creator and responder. The Cluey Education Team is ready to support them at every stage, with units for essays, oral presentations, creative and persuasive writing, as well as spelling, syntax and grammar. Whether it's catching up or getting ahead, our custom learning plans are tailored to your child's needs.
Students build their analytical skills, gaining greater insight into the choices made by the creators of texts and how these impact readers. The focus on evaluation in the final years of the primary curriculum requires a larger technical vocabulary, greater ability to understand abstract meaning and figurative language, and to master a range of text types. Pre-essaying writing skills are consolidated in preparation for Year 7.
In Year 2, students are developing their reading skills and using a range of strategies to recognise and decode words. They are learning to understand the range of purposes and audiences for spoken and written language and also learning to create their own texts for specific purposes and audiences. They are also learning to reflect on and assess their own writing and that of others.
Explore a world of sophisticated and complex texts and adopt new approaches to the practice of in-depth reading and writing. Challenge yourself to develop, present and defend original creative or critical work that reflects your growing confidence as a student of Senior English. Cluey will be there to support you with everything from developing independent research strategies to mastering the secrets of extended writing.

Here’s what parents and students around Australia are saying about Cluey Learning:
My daughter who is in year 5, has had three 1-1 remote lessons with an English and maths teacher.Both teachers appear very knowledgeable. My daughter is once again excited about learning and feels more confident as a result of these lessons. The online platform the kids use during the session is intuitive and ease to use. The feedback sent after the lesson is great to ensure parents are across what was done during the lesson.
I was looking for tutoring to support a Year 11 and now Year 12 studies. We have been matched with good tutors for both math and english. The systems are great and allow parent to make sure sessions are effective, swapping and pausing is easy and very flexible. I was reluctant for an online forum however convinced now by the service offered and convenience of being able to books sessions (without the drop/off and pickup runaround!). Like any service like this, it all relies on the Tutor your student is matched with - we had a substitute tutor for one session and their communication style was different so not as conducive to my student's learning style. The system provides for you to swap out a tutor if its not working out. We are happy to the first match of tutors provided - just more cautious if we are being offered a substitute in future. Overall very happy with the service and we will be continuing this year.
Cluey has provided us with a convenient way for our year 4 son to build confidence in Maths and English. His tutors are so patient and understanding and reports are received almost immediately his session ends.
I've recently signed up my 8 year old for English and Maths tuition with Cluey to reinforce and extend his learning. The Cluey learning platform is a very structured program that has allowed my son to remain engaged, focused on the learning intention and successful in grasping the targeted concepts by the end of each 1 hour session. Having access to many tutors, Cluey was also able to effectively match my son's personality and learning-style with the right tutor, allowing my son to remain excited and keen throughout each lesson, thereby maximising my investment. I had initially gone to market to find tutoring on a face-to-face basis and was initially not particularly keen for an online tutoring service, but Cluey has proven that online learning is not a hindrance to my son's learning. In fact, I have found Cluey's online learning platform as very convenient for us in terms of just logging on for the lesson and is resilient, where our weekly tuition session is not impacted by the pandemic situation the world is facing today. I'd recommend Cluey to other families seeking to reinforce or enhance your child's learning. I'm happy
Cluey has been fantastic my son has gained confidence in both English and Maths the tutors are supportive and seem to really connect.
We had a couple of issues with my lap top connecting to the first couple of sessions and support team were wonderful getting it all sorted.
