THE ACES POEM:
I’ve been going to ACES for five long years,
Maths and English have been whispered in my ears.
I’ve been learning so much I’m turning into a book,
If you’re having trouble too come in and take a look.
The teachers are great, and the food is good,
I would be a tutor if I could.
Even though they’re making me very clever,
I hope I can stay forever.
- By a current Year 6 student
We have seen the benefits over the last few years and have witnessed great improvement in our son's English and Maths. I would hate to think where he would be, if we had never had him at ACES.
It is hard to believe that he has been coming to ACES for almost 4 years now. His tutor has the patience of a saint, and the great rapport between her our son has, I am sure, been a major factor helping in his engagement. All the tutors have worked really well with him and we would just like to take this moment to thank you for your outstanding service.
- Parents of a Yr 9 student moving overseas
My daughter has gained so much from her time with ACES. I saw her confidence grow throughout the past four years, and along with it her knowledge and understanding of mathematics concepts and their application.
Her tutor built a strong relationship based on trust which enabled her to ask questions and explore the unknown.
Thank you for being so supportive and understanding and for creating such a fantastic resource for the many students who you all inspire.
- Parent of graduating student, 2018
Thank you never seems enough when we receive such wonderful updates. His confidence just seems to be going from strength to strength. His results are testament to the hard work he has been doing and credit so much of this to the help he has received from and at ACES. I find his math results amazing given how he struggled three years ago.
