Finding the right academic support for your child can make a world of difference, whether they need help catching up, extending their skills or building confidence in a particular subject.

Fortunately, Lane Cove is home to a wide range of tutoring services and educational support options, from specialist literacy and numeracy programs to occupational therapy and speech therapy.

We see so many posts on Lane Cove Chat by ITC asking for tutoring contacts that we thought we would put together a guide for options in Lane Cove and surrounds, giving you an overview of what each offers so you can find the best fit for your child’s needs.

Kumon Lane Cove

At Kumon, we personalise each student’s program, right from the beginning. Students begin study at a level that allows them to build self-confidence from day one, and progress according to their ability rather than their age. Over time, our students develop the study habits, attitude and skills that will allow them to study advanced material confidently and independently.

Find out more about the Kumon Method of Learning by watching our introductory video (kumonglobal.com/kumon-a-foundation-for-the-future/) or booking an Orientation Meeting directly with Sheryl at [email protected].

Sydney Speech Clinic

Speech Pathologists and Occupational Therapists are professionally trained to assess, diagnose and treat a wide range of developmental differences and ultimately aim to help individuals in their daily activities, relationships and communication skills. 

Supporting these skills is often best achieved through group programs. Group sessions promote peer learning in an interactive, motivating and supportive group environment.

Our group programs are designed to supplement a child’s learning in other environments by building on existing skills and allowing for generalisation across situations. Most importantly, these groups encourage the children in the group to learn from one another. We often find that children thrive in this group setting, and emerge  feeling more confident and empowered. Group programs offer a reliable and affordable way of maximising your child’s exposure to learning.

All programs are evidence-based, and carefully planned and facilitated by qualified speech pathologists and/or occupational therapists.
