Choosing the right tutor is not an easy decision, and a large investment into your child’s future. At ABC to VCE, we believe a successful provider requires qualified, passionate teachers who will support your child throughout their entire journey. This is why we follow a consistent model where each student has equal opportunities for their full potential to be realised and maintained beyond their schooling years.
We offer 1 on 1 teaching, with additional expertise in nurturing services, for small groups 2- 4 students at a time, small group classes, as well as online classes. Our delivery model is based on undisputed research (Vygotsky, 1934) and theories, which stress the fundamental role of social interaction in the development of cognition. We agree, it is essential tutors allow children an opportunity to learn with both the teacher, and higher skilled peers.
ABC to VCE’s tutors also work hard to identify gaps in the curriculum your child has – in order to fill these while developing their strengths. We consistently deliver top quality teaching, with the expectation our students will share any new learnings with peers and teachers.
A warm welcome to my classroom! As a dedicated Early Years and Primary Educator, I have worked with the Department of Education for many years in various roles including Principles of Learning and Teaching Development team, Lead Teacher, Curriculum advisor, Assessor for Mathematics aptitude in Pre-service teachers. This experience has led me to become passionate developing confident children and reconnecting their positive relationship to education through their entire learning journey.
Every parent has the desire to ensure their child’s genius zone shines. At any time during schooling, children may lose confidence and feel unsuccessful – especially if they are performing remarkably in some areas and not others. This is why my team at ABC to VCE make it their purpose to identify these gaps and other areas of need. Learning begins through a celebration surrounding the level your child is at upon commencement. As tutoring progresses, we build layers of new information, while ensuring there is a clear understanding and connection with new learning. We relate this to building a hamburger, where delivery starts at the base with content gradually added, piece by piece.
My son has attended the school readiness 3 year old program for around 6 weeks and in that short
amount of time he has learnt how to say and identify all letters of the alphabet, learnt how to
recognise and read common sounds such as ph and wr and he has improved on his fine motor skills.
Now he gets upset when I tell him it’s a child care day not a school day as he wants to go to Jo’s
class every day instead. Can’t recommend enough :).

Danny is an amazing tutor. Under his guidance my daughter has made excellent progress in Maths.
He is a very patient teacher and provided lots of useful resources which helped my daughter in improving her Maths skills.

Ms. Nicole is one of the best teachers I’ve had in my life. By doing 1 to 3 tutoring, I’m able to ask questions that I didn’t understand in class.
Learning extra knowledge about VCE and helping on my school’s homework and assignments has been of great help.
My English has improved dramatically since I came to Australia, and one of the reasons is definitely this tutoring centre. Before I came here, I was averaging a ‘D’ which is around 50%. However, Nicole has helped me on my language structure, vocabulary and all the other literary skills that is need for the VCE program. That’s why I am now averaging a ‘B’ in my school work now and sometimes I have received an A which is 85%. I know my English isn’t that good yet, but I can still improve through this tutoring centre.

We have had the loveliest
transition into learning with Jo
for our 4 year old son, Matthew.
He enjoys the class, acts independently
and eagerly tells us about what
he has learnt at each session.
Jo has been wonderful and professional
to liaise with and I enjoy
her feedback and encouragement.

Our daughter has been at ABC to VCE for about 6 months. Since the end of the first lot of Victorian home schooling.
We started with one session with Miss Jo and Our daughter really loved her and her way of teaching.
We saw her confidence soar and her work improve. Even her class teacher commented.
So when covid school 2.0 was upon us we decided to out her in for a second class. So we now see Miss Shannon as well. We also find her great. Having the 2 different tutors each week I find is great as there are 2 different approaches and our girl never gets bored.
Highly recommend Jo and her team and will be putting our youngest daughter into the Begin Brilliantly Program to prepare her for when she starts prep in 2022.

Ms Jo has been amazing with our 5 year old son. When we pick up Jayden he is so happy and loves
to tell us everything he has learnt with Ms Jo. Such a great centre and Ms Jo is so amazing at
teaching the children independence. Cannot recommend high enough.

We moved to Australia around 2.5 years back and as any mum I was apprehensive about my daughter settling in, picking up English (as it is not our first language), communicating and exploring
to ultimately become confident and independent.
I live nearby the centre. One day, I suddenly dropped in to check out and instantly fell in love with the vibrant, open and welcoming space.
As always Jo was so adorable and comforting. My daughter has not only learned her lessons but also has become so confident and active.
All thanks to Jo and her continuous efforts to make this centre better everyday even in these tricky times. I highly recommend the centre and its services.

What an amazing establishment and program to have at our fingertips. Miss Jo is one of the most enthusiastic and nurturing educators I have had the pleasure of meeting. My 5 year boy has soared
through kinder with real confidence and is set to tackle prep next year. With the support and guidance of Jo, he can confidently read, spell, write his name and key words, count to 100, count by 2s, 5s and 10s and has even started simple addition and subtraction. My 7 year old (grade 1) has a real love of mathematics and has been encouraged to relish in this gift through the support of Jo and his other incredible Educators Amna and Veronica. My kids skip in and out of their classes with a smile each week.
I cant thank such an incredible team enough.

ABC to VCE provides a nurturing
and creative learning environment and
I would highly recommend their services.
They go above and beyond.
A big thank you to all the incredible staff,
I don’t know where we’d be without you!

I got tutored throughout my last 2 years of high school for both math methods and chemistry.
I noticed a huge difference in my scores over the past 2 years and it definitely didn’t go unnoticed at my school and in my year 12 classes. During mid year 12 I was being tutored by Danny for both methods and chemistry – chemistry being my weakest subject, my scores doubled in comparison to my 2019 results with his help.
Throughout my experience at ABC to VCE tutoring, the staff have been so welcoming and kind with my tutors pushing me to work as hard as I can and working their hardest to help me in my subjects. I have them to thank for my increase in scores this year for both methods and chemistry.
