Alison has transformed my teenagers lives. After homeschooling my twins since Year 9 both have graduated with A's. We have yet to find out there ATAR score. However it has been a wonderful journey with Alison attending eight two hour lessons across English, Mathematics, Geography, Ancient and Modern History through Jubilee Distance Education. I would highly recommend anyone seeking to homeschool whilst they work. Alison has been the best decision we ever made. Her compassion and love for supporting my boys has been superb. Now they are ready for their next chapter. We recommend Alison to anyone facing that decision after my sins were previously traumatised by extensive bullying.

Alison, or Miss Alison, is a valuable extension of our family. We started with our eldest son who struggles with learning due to his ADD and Dyslexic diagnosis. My son refused to even try, but with Alison's kindness, he has started to gain confidence and flourish with participation in his classroom. He has, for the first time, started to enjoy reading. Through Alison's worksheets, he has discovered how a story builds on his imagination. His dyslexia is mild, but he does have difficulty with writing, including crossing the middle line. So he writes with both hands, meeting his brain's line on a page. My son now looks forward to every lesson particularly when he knows that they will work on a particular area he struggles with. His school results are showing improvement from E/D's to C/B's. Alison has a kind, patient demeanour which focuses on positive learning skills. Now my second daughter is having lessons with Alison in preparation for ACER exam to gain access to a scholarship. Alison has provided a learning plan so that all the areas are focused on including English, Mathematics, Thinking and Writing. My daughter needs support with reading comprehension including all the elements of poetry. We started studying for this in February 2024 with the exam in February 2025. I highly recommend Alison as a teacher and tutor. For any families seeking that teacher who will inspire their students to love learning then look no further. I have seen such a positive tramsformation in my students learning. My son has been through his Year 3 and Year 5 NAPLAN with Alison. For me personally it was not really high marks I was concerned about but how to support him as his stress levels esculate with any school assessment. Alison has provided strategies to make these assessments early including breathing techniques. So at presemt Alison attend our house eight hours per week - three two hour lessons for my daughters ATAR preparation and two one hour lessons for my son. Please employ Alison she will provide that support for your student. An individual learning approach based on your students needs.

Alison has been my daughter's tutor for the past three years. She started tutoring my Myra in Year 3. My daughter was struggling with English and Mathematics with her report card reflecting this. When I first contacted Alison I advised her that my long term goals were for my daughter to gain confidence in her own abilities, gain knowledge and understanding of English and Mathematics and gain entry to a private girl's school. Alison completed an assessment of my daughter's skills using an assessment form based on the Australian curriculum. She then created an educational plan with two hour lessons booked weekly. She also worked on supporting my daughter with her writing in the areas needed for her upcoming Naplan. My daughter had such confidence that she wrote her own story. She gained the top 5% of the state for her Naplan results. Which was solely due to the support from Alison. My daughter's report card reflected all of the tutoring support provided with Myra's report card showing after the first term. An increase in her report card for both Mathematics and English from a D to a B, With written confirmation from her teachers stating how much my daughter's confidence had grown. Myra used to receive one on one home tutoring but due to her sports commitments, this was becoming too hard to accommodate. My daughter then switched from an individual in home tutoring lesson to zoom lessons. Despite this change, my daughter continued to thrive in Alison's lessons. Due to the academic results, my daughter was offered an enrolment place at her private school. We are beyond grateful for all the support Alison has given our Myra. We would highly recommend Alison to anyone who is seeking a teacher who tutors. She has such a kind, loving and compassionate soul. I can see how passionate and genuine she is when discussing with her my daughter's needs. We are so grateful that we decided to employ Alison's services. Alison is very organised, reliable, dedicated, caring and passionate.
