IMPACT TUTORING

Impact Tutoring is here to make a difference for our students in their knowledge, skills and attitude. Self-belief is our key focus so students progress to achieve the best they can be.

The lessons run for an hour each week during term time.

Mathematics: Primary level consists of Times Tables, Problem Solving, Revision, New Skills Learning and finish with a Maths Game. Secondary school level is based on the same concepts but with a priority of addressing the needs of the student and what they are currently needing for Internal and External assessments.

Written Language: Primary level aligned to the New Zealand Curriculum. For our younger students lessons consist of an emphasis on Personal recount, Information Reports and Narrative.  These genres then includes Speeches, Instruction writing, Reports, Explanations and Argument writing.

We place importance on surface and deeper writing features developing grammar, punctuation and structure for the different genre.

Models of writing are used to provide students as examples of developing their skills.  This helps them to understand what they are aiming for to meet their individual goals.

Our programme follows the NZ Curriculum and supports what is being taught in the classroom.

We provide all the equipment and materials for the lesson and each child’s exercise book will come home each week so parents can see the progress.

The lessons are a maximum of a 1 to 2 ratio. There is NOT more than 1 to 2 ratio at any stage. NCEA 2 and 3 are 1 to 1 ratio. Each student is taught on an individual programme so gets personalised attention and support. This means that any gaps in knowledge or misunderstandings can be identified and remedied.
