Tutoring in Point Piper

Built around your child, not a worksheet pack.

One on one is the entire model at LearnIt: one tutor, one student, and a plan built around what your child actually needs rather than what a group happens to be covering that week. Our tutors average a 98.2 ATAR and include state rankers and school duxes, among them duxes of Ascham, Kambala and Cranbrook, a perfect 45 out of 45 IB Dux from Wellington and a 43 from Singapore. For Point Piper families that means someone who sat the same papers recently, working at your own table if you prefer, with feedback from your tutor after every session.

Point Piper is barely a kilometre of harbour frontage: a few hundred homes on Wolseley, Wunulla and Wentworth Roads, with no school gate and no shopping strip of its own. Every school run therefore heads out along New South Head Road, and the children of a single street can be spread across Cranbrook, Ascham, Kambala, Kincoppal Rose Bay and Double Bay Public. Families here are usually working towards one of two things: entry testing and scholarship rounds for the independent schools during primary, then the long stretch of the HSC or the IB Diploma in the senior years. With sailing off the point, term time travel and weekends that fill quickly, the scarce resource is rarely ambition, it is an unbroken hour in the week, which is exactly what a tutor at your own table protects.

We cover Wolseley Road, Lady Martins Beach, Blackburn Gardens and the streets around them.

How lessons work

Three ways to learn in Point Piper.

Most Point Piper families choose lessons at home, which suits the way the peninsula lives: a quiet study or a kitchen table, and nobody sitting in the car at four in the afternoon. If home is busy, our Double Bay study centre is a five minute drive down New South Head Road, and older students at the western end often walk in from the Blackburn Gardens side. Online lessons run on the same plan and the same app, which matters through exam blocks and whenever the family is away.

In your home

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.

Point Piper homes sit minutes from Double Bay, so most families simply have the tutor come to them.

At our Double Bay centre

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.

Online

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.

Jordan has been a fantastic tutor for my boys. He's committed, reliable, and really great with them. My boys are more confident in their subjects and actually enjoy their sessions too. Highly recommend!

Fabulous tutoring experience for 3 grandchildren. They actually enjoy their session and their excellent maths results reflect this, and the skill of their tutor.

Common questions

Point Piper parents often ask

Yes, and in home lessons are what most Point Piper families ask for. The peninsula sits a few minutes from our Double Bay base, so tutors are not losing an hour to traffic either side of a session. The narrower stretches can be tight for parking, so tell us where to leave the car and we will work around it.

You can have them back to back on the same afternoon, usually with different tutors. We match on subject and stage rather than on household, so a Year 3 reader and a Year 11 Extension 1 student each get a specialist. Whether your children are at Double Bay Public, Cranbrook, Ascham, Kambala or Kincoppal Rose Bay, the tutor is chosen for the course in front of them.

Only if you want it to. Lessons move online for a week or a month at no extra cost, and time zones are almost always workable. Between sessions the LearnIt app keeps practice going, set by your tutor, with a live parent dashboard showing what has been done. If plans shift late, our cancellation window is 9 hours and there are no lock in contracts.

We are only a few minutes down the road, so the simplest place to start is a single lesson with a tutor matched to your child.

There is no contract and no joining fee, and we will come back to you within 24 hours with a matched tutor.
