Every Lynn's student starts the same way: we learn your child before we teach them. Here's exactly what happens, from the first booking to the first “I can do this.”
Half an hour per subject, in centre, with a qualified educator. A short, friendly level-check that shows us where your child is confident, where they're stuck, and how they think — it doesn't feel like a test. Then a one-on-one debrief with you about what we found and what we'd honestly recommend.
We design your child's programme from the assessment — pitched at their ability, not just their year level, and aligned to the Victorian and Australian curricula. Foundations rebuilt where there are gaps; extension where they're ready for more. Reviewed and adjusted every term as they grow.
One hour per subject per week in centre: corrections first (self-fixes and taught-fixes), then new work, with one-on-one help whenever it's needed. Short homework on four days a week — only ever on practised material — and every single piece comes back marked. By us, not you.
As your child settles into the programme, you'll notice growing concentration, confidence and independent study skills — all of which lead to academic improvement. The pace varies from child to child, but many parents notice a change within the first two weeks, and considerable progress within the first two months. Many long-term students go on to complete work well above their grade level. Your centre manager is always available for an update chat — please get in touch any time you'd like to discuss your child's progress.
No — and please don't. The assessment works best when it shows us how your child genuinely works: where they're confident, where they hesitate, and how they think through something unfamiliar. It's short, friendly, and doesn't feel like a test.
You're welcome to stay in the centre. Your child works with an educator while you wait, and then we sit down with you one-on-one to talk through what we found and what we'd recommend.
Then we'll tell you exactly that. An honest recommendation is the whole point — some families leave with reassurance and a few suggestions for home, and come back a year later when things change. No pressure, ever.
School teaches to the year level; Lynn's teaches to your child. We follow the same Victorian and Australian curricula, but your child's programme is pitched precisely where they need to grow next — sometimes ahead of class, sometimes behind, sometimes approaching the same topic from a different angle.
Most students complete a short piece of Lynn's work on four days a week at home, in addition to their weekly class. The load adjusts up or down to suit your child, it only ever covers material they've already practised in class, and we mark every piece when it comes back.
Centres run during school terms, in one-hour sessions — typically three per day (for example 4–5pm, 5–6pm and 6–7pm). Different centres operate on different days; check your centre's page for its days and times.
A free in-centre assessment: half an hour per subject with a qualified educator, then an honest chat about what we'd recommend. No pressure, no obligation, no cost.
