Welcome to Jennifer·Learning

I work primarily at the following schools in the South Wellington area. If your child attends one of them I can usually see them at school during normal class time.

• Berhampore School
• Hataitai School
• Seatoun School
• Island Bay School
• South Wellington Intermediate School

If you have an intermediate aged child at another school, I can offer after school tutoring at your home, although I have limited spaces available for this.

Tutoring usually comprises a one-hour session each week. If your child needs support with both literacy and maths it is usually best to have a second session.

At each lesson I will find the student’s learning zone (the skill or part of a skill that they need to master in order to progress further) and create customised homework to give them the practice they need to move on. You will need to commit to four home practice sessions with your child each week to make progress.

During the first few sessions I will carry out assessments. These are done in a relaxed way and the results are used to set the starting level for tuition as well as giving a baseline to measure progress from. I will assess and report on your child’s progress twice a year.
