Parent Testimonials

“AHeadStart suited my son well. He was motivated but did not want to ask questions in class and had low confidence in Calculus. He was in Year 13 so did not want me to be too involved! His marks and confidence improved and he was happy with his NCEA results. That is all I wanted from the tuition.”

“Hi Melanie 

The tutorial went extremely well. Douglas was quite apprehensive but totally clicked with Jackson and said the 90minutes went very quickly and Jackson helped enormously with the maths and chemistry he had been doing this week. 

Many Thanks, Catriona”

"Our daughter gained invaluable help from her AHeadStart tutors. After each lesson she came away feeling energised by the learning that she had done and she looked forward to the next lesson. She went into her final exams feeling confident that she had the knowledge to pass them."

"[Tuition helped my daughter understand better] some difficult areas of Maths and science for which we could not help. She has a greater enthusiasm to study science after tuition began. My daughter's confidence to take on exams has increased remarkably. She has also shown very good exam results due to tuition from AHeadStart."

“We are very happy with Claudia’s lessons and that her test results in class have improved considerably, with her end of year report and conversations with her science teacher supporting her growth in this subject.  Claudia’s confidence has grown heaps! 

Claudia is a quiet student who struggles to ask for help when she needs it, so the one on one lessons have been amazing for her.  Marwah is fantastic and Claudia just loves her, which makes her lessons a delight rather than a chore. 

Thank you for our short time with you last year and we really look forward to 2014 with AHeadStart.”

“I feel Anna achieved all her objectives and irrespective of the results, I witnessed a child 'grow' in so many aspects other than just learning the subjects. Her confidence took in a different level which was profound and was evident in all areas; not just the areas being tutored.”

“[William] thinks his physics exam today went really well, fingers crossed.
