Here’s what parents and students around Australia are saying about Cluey Learning:
Cluey has helped my daughter understand her maths and English better over time. She really loves her English tutor and enjoys these lessons. It has been a good investment. However, I think that it is important to get the right tutor for the child and ensure that they practice regularly.
Given my child more confidence and help on what is needed.
★★★★★
Great teacher. Works well with my shy child. Cluey challenges without dropping their confidence. Would recommend parents to try. Teaching is so hard to do when we learnt many years ago and with different techniques and technology. I feel less stressed my child is getting behind and happy that confidence is increasing.
Confidence growing , tailored to needs and highly recommend
★★★★★
Teaching is spot on and compatible with my sons way of learning. So far the tutoring is relevant to what is being taught at school and curriculum therefore reinforces and revises subject taught
The tutor is very helpful and welcoming. She is helping my daughter build confidence. so far we had 3 lessons and my daughters is really enjoying it and looks forward to the sessions. The tutor is professional and able to include my child into discussion which is really great improvement.
My child has a medical condition and has missed quite a bit of school. By joining Cluey learning he has gained confidence and has been able to fill in the gaps he has missed. He is always very excited to do the lessons and he always reflects back to me what he has learned. His tutor always checks with my son what he has been doing at school so he can extend on this.
My son is lost in the system. He is that good child that they do not see. We started Cluey a few weeks back. I love the flexibility of doing it in our own home. The maths tutor gets it. He gets my son to work through the problems and figures out where he is making mistakes. They work back through the problem to fix it. My son than works on other similar problems that he does not get. Our tutor works with my son on the deficits in his maths knowledge. Having one on one allows my son to work on his individual needs.
