Matraville is a driving suburb, and the soldiers' settlement streets around Menin Road are a fair hike from any tutoring centre. So the tutor drives, not you. Lessons run at the kitchen table, online, or up at our Double Bay centre. We teach Kindergarten to Year 12, and IB Diploma subjects.
Matraville is about 20 minutes by car from our Double Bay study centre, roughly 14 kilometres.
Matraville is a working, family suburb. The 2021 census counted just under 10,000 residents, a median age of 42 and close to three quarters of households with families in them. Parents ring us for ordinary reasons. A Year 4 who has quietly stopped putting a hand up in maths. A Year 10 at Matraville Sports High whose training load is eating the homework. A Year 11 who picked Advanced Maths and is now drowning in it.
Sport sets the clock here. The Matraville Tigers run juniors through the South Juniors competition, Matraville Sports High builds its timetable around a talent sports program, and the courts at Matraville Sports Centre on the western edge of Heffron Park are booked most evenings. Add Port Botany trucks on the main roads at knock off time and a Saturday morning that belongs to the club. Tutoring has to fit that, not fight it.
We teach in homes off Menin Road and Somme Way, around Perry Street near the Matraville Hotel, and out towards Franklin Street and Barwon Park.
Schools in and around Matraville that local families commonly attend. Whichever your child is at, we tutor to their syllabus and their assessment calendar.
Matraville is a driving suburb, not a walking one. The soldiers' settlement streets, Menin Road, Somme Way and the crescents around them, are quiet and easy to park in, and a long way from any tutoring centre. So the tutor drives instead, books already out on the kitchen table, and nobody joins the Port Botany truck traffic on Bunnerong Road at six.
Your tutor comes to you, so there is no drive and no parking, and your child works in the space they already study in. It suits primary students and busy weeknights particularly well.
Matraville sits a long way from the tutoring strips, so the tutor doing the driving saves the family an hour.
A quiet, purpose built room away from the distractions of home. Senior students and exam blocks tend to work best here, and parents often use the time for the school run.
Live one on one over video with a shared workspace, so the tutor and student write on the same page. Ideal for sport seasons, travel weeks, and the day someone wakes up unwell.
Every LearnIt tutor is a recent top of the state graduate, interviewed and trialled before they meet a student. These are three of them.
Riley has been extremely helpful improving my essay writing and making me feel more confident within exam scenarios. Highly recommend Learn It.
Charlie has been an amazing tutor, he has helped build my confidence in maths, improving my results and making me feel more comfortable in exams.
Most of our Matraville students come from Matraville Public School on Bunnerong Road, Matraville Soldiers Settlement Public School on Menin Road, and St Agnes' Catholic Primary School. At high school we work with students at Matraville Sports High School on Anzac Parade at Chifley, Corpus Christi College Maroubra, and Marcellin College Randwick. We also see families from Chifley Public School and Malabar Public School. We tutor Kindergarten to Year 12 and the full IB Diploma.
Yes, and it is the most common question we get in this pocket. Rugby league with the Tigers, football, squad swimming and the sports high program all eat the weeknights. We book a fixed weekly slot that sits around training, at home, online or at Double Bay, and we hold it for the term. There is no lock in contract. If a session clashes with a carnival, tell us more than nine hours ahead and it costs nothing.
You see it in three places. The tutor writes to you once the hour finishes, so you know what ground was covered and where your child wobbled, often before they are home from training. The app shows the practice done between lessons and how much of it landed. Then there is the school report, which is the one that really counts. If a Year 10 at Matraville Sports High is handing work in on time again, that is your answer.
There is no contract and no joining fee, and we will come back to you within 24 hours with a matched tutor.
