Legal Studies Tutoring
Our Legal Studies Program is designed to help students excel. We follow the full NESA curriculum of HSC Legal Studies including Crime, Human Rights and the options of Workplace, World Order, Family, Shelter and Consumer Law.
We don't just rote learn, but put the knowledge students have learnt at school into context. Our course focuses on writing and applying knowledge. We work through HSC-style multiple choice questions and practice paragraphs to patch up any holes in students knowledge, and ensure they are prepped for their exams
Our Course
Research indicates that attention spans typically begin to decline after just 20 minutes. By structuring our lessons to last one hour, we create an optimal learning environment that maximizes both focus and retention. This approach helps students fully engage with the material, ensuring they gain the most from their educational experience.
Hour Long Classes
Private tutoring offers a highly effective solution for addressing individual challenges and enhancing retention. Through one-on-one attention, students benefit from personalized instruction tailored to their unique learning styles and pace. This customized approach fosters greater confidence and a deeper comprehension of the subject matter.

Consistency is crucial for effective learning. Regular weekly lessons help students stay on track and steadily work toward their goals. Relying on last-minute cramming is often ineffective and can hinder long-term understanding. By following a structured, consistent approach, students can see significant improvements in their progress and retention
