Delivering “Tuition That Works” — Chairmans Message

When I started our first North Shore tuition centre at Chatswood, NSW in 1991, I believed that there were better ways to assist students in accelerating and changing their study methods. To me, a great educator inspires dreams, encourages creativity, builds confidence and instils a love of learning providing a solid foundation for success as lifelong learners.

With that in mind, I created a campus where we the tutors, showed real passion and genuine desire to understand and help develop students’ abilities. Today we have over 65 campuses across Australia and Hong Kong; our coaching colleges are staffed by the most knowledgeable educators who all share the same values in providing our students with highest standards in professionalism and ethics in all our activities as coaches. More importantly, we thrive on the connection we build with our students, to help them get their study processes right from the start of their journey with us.

From the time you call us on the phone wanting more details about our courses till when the student graduates, we assure you that your child and your family goals for their education becomes our key focus. We believe in succeeding together and growing stronger together.

As a parent myself, I know it takes a lot for parents to provide children with the best opportunities and possibilities. That is why I often reinforce to our students the “gratitude” mindset to remind students always to be grateful to parents for their unconditional love and support in their success.

I look forward to welcoming your family to North Shore Coaching College, where we will work together in helping your child to be the best they can be.

Warmest Regards,
