She would always do what was best for each individual student, catering to their different weak points and areas of difficulty, allowing for a deeper understanding of the course content while creating a stimulating and fun atmosphere, encouraging my love for mathematics.

The course has truly helped my preparation for Trials. Understanding the basics is great, but being exposed to the top tier of questions is what really prepares you for exams and that's exactly what Karen provided in this course.

If you are looking for an outstanding tutor, you need Felicity Segel. She has made an incredible impact on our son’s learning journey. What sets her apart is that she genuinely cares about her students. There’s no ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach – Felicity took the time to understand our son’s unique strengths and weaknesses, tailoring her teaching to suit so that it just ‘clicks

Shirley connected with my daughter on a personal level, as she has taught her physical exercises to straighten her posture, which has helped my daughter’s spine alignment immensely.

My daughter has benefitted immeasurably from Shirley's Stress Management course. Her calmer, better organized and more confident manner were obvious immediately and her approach to tests and examinations was also far less stressful.

My child is really enjoying the lessons with Tsilla, and it’s great to hear Tsilla is pleased with the progress too. The group rate combined with philanthropic funding has made continuing Hebrew into Year 12 so affordable. Thank you!

The course was very useful and helpful, providing me with tips and tricks that I had never seen before and will be very useful going into my trial HSC. The explanations were all very thorough and detailed.

Coming to Shirley from a University Tutor I have seen many improvements from both my Maths abilities and Shirley’s Math tutoring. I retain much more information after each session and my knowledge has been extended.

Not only did this Ext 2 Mathematics course provide some really good practice with challenging HSC questions, they were also explained very clearly, so that by the end of the course they seemed easy.

Judd found Shirley to be unbelievable, not only in the way she taught him maths but he also found her positive reinforcement so very powerful.
From Mum of Judd
This course was definitely beneficial for me. We had a very strong teacher in Karen who went through the content thoroughly but not too slowly and the questions we were given were great - all past HSC and trial questions that were quite challenging.
