Our 5 year old daughter had been struggling in prep with reading and writing and this affected her confidence which was further slowing her progress. We turned to Brainworks a year ago for one on one help initially with reading and then writing. They provided the tuition in a way that our daughter really enjoyed and she has significantly improved in both areas to a point where she is back on track with the school curriculum. She now loves to both read and write. Thank you Brainworks. Mark
By the end of year 5 we realised that our son was experiencing problems with Maths at school because it seemed during earlier years some important concepts seemed not to have been taught or understood by him. At Brainworks, Meg and her team identified these weaknesses and within just two terms our son is flourishing and doing extremely well in grade 6. It is so pleasing to hear " I really like Maths. I'm really good at it now!" Whilst Maths may have been the primary reason for sending our son to Brainworks it is fair to say that the experience boosted his confidence and success more broadly. A great experience! Regards.

My daughter Avni attended Brainworks Balwyn classes in preparation for the academic scholarship at a prestigious school in Kew this year. Avni was able to crack the test (ACER scholarship Test) successfully. Meg and Monica were very helpful and meticulous in understanding the weak areas of Avni and providing material and support to help Avni score well. Additionally the feedback given on a weekly basis helped us to guide Avni in the right direction. I surely recommend this place if you are preparing your child for any competitive exam. Aravinde
