After just three months with Harry I have achieved beyond my expectations. Deciding to embark on the journey of 3 unit maths 8 weeks behind was a risky decision, and my teachers, my parents and I had doubts. Only Harry was, not only optimistic, but confident of a turnaround. He exclaimed “John if you don’t pass 3 unit I will close this place down!”

His words of wisdom were my virtue and his determination inspired me to achieve. He constantly reminded me of my potential and my ability in mathematics which boosted my confidence. In my most recent assessment I came 2nd in my class blitzing the average by over 40%, I owe it to Harry as he motivated me to be where I am today and still reminds me not to become complacent. I have no hesitation in recommending Harry strongly to anyone in struggle or wishing to improve their skills in mathematics.

A normal mathematics teacher would be perceived as a boring person with no sense of humour; Harry is very different in this category. He makes learning fun and makes your goal his goal. He is able to push you to challenge yourself but does so in a relaxed personal manner. You feel as though he is your friend and he genuinely wants you to succeed.

I write to say thank you for teaching Ken Chemistry since June this year. Ken has made tremendous progress in Chemistry since then. His yearly school report has shown him improved 31 rankings at school. What a great result! I also noticed that Ken is more focused and determined and he also has more motivation and interest in studying Chemistry during his coaching with you. Thank you very much Harry. I wish I had brought Ken to you earlier.

Throughout school my maths grades have not been anything spectacular, so as the HSC year drew closer and closer, I decided it was time to find a tutor. My parents and I tried various other well-known coaching branches, but we felt that their approach did not tackle problem areas of weaknesses head on. Often they were more worried about their business than the education of their students.

We looked to the internet, and there we found Master Coaching, run by Harry. I was sceptical at first; since at other major branches I was not able to find the right tutor for me, I doubted that such a small business would be able to do anything for me.

After a few maths lessons with Harry, I quickly let go of my doubts. The progressive lessons, combined with Harry’s extensive knowledge of the HSC 12 2U Mathematics course enabled me to feel more at ease when tackling maths problems for homework as well as during assessments.

Come HSC, I felt well prepared. I sat the examination, and my efforts were rewarded with a band 6 in mathematics. With the help of Harry at Master Coaching, I was able to achieve a rank I felt was a long way out of my reach. Harry, I can’t thank you enough.

We’re very pleased to share with you fantastic news that have just arrived – our daughter Milica got a place in Caringbah Selective School and she is the only one from her school this year that managed to get in. She is very happy and has acknowledged that the preparations she has done through Master Coaching have helped her a lot, especially with improving her writing and mathematical skills and with the exam time management, which was crucial in achieving the best results. Big thanks to your team on behalf of our family, we look forward to our daughter Maria joining Selective School preparation classes next year.

My son Zac began tutoring at Master Coaching with Harry in 2005 in preparation for selective high school. During that time he enjoyed attending his lessons every week as his tutor Dianne provided a challenging and enjoyable lesson with a realistic and professional approach. Harry is a man who enjoys what he does. It’s not a job to him when he makes students achieve, but instead it becomes his passion. The enthusiasm and dedication provided by Harry and his staff is endless. We were ecstatic with the results achieved by Zac this year as he gained an interview for a scholarship at Trinity Boys Grammar, a scholarship to Newington High School and was given an offer to a selective high school as well. I am so pleased with Harry and Master Coaching that I am now sending my older son in year 11 & 12.

We were very impressed with the high standard of tutoring provided by master coaching. Our tutor was both a friend and mentor in helping us prepare for the HSC. She provided us with a range of knowledge and skills which greatly supported our approach to the HSC. Moreover, the scaffolding and insight for writing she presented to us increased our confidence and ability in essay writing and preparing for the HSC. Our tutor also directed us about where to find exemplars that we could use as benchmarks of excellence to assist in practising the writing of essays.

My daughter attended the year 5 selective class at Master Coaching Hurstville and I am pleased to announce she has just been accepted into CaringbahHigh School for year 7 next year (2015). Caringbah High was our first choice, but her mark of 218 was enough for her to be able to go to her second choice of St.George Girls High as well.

I can honestly say that sending her to Master Coaching was the best decision I have ever made. She received Band 6’s in all academic areas in her Naplan results for year 5 and I know she learned a lot of tips from Master Coaching that helped her achieve this fantastic result. She is now so much more confident leading up to exams and appears to be less stressed as well.

I remember my daughter coming home from school one day very excited because she had sat a reading exam and said that she felt she did well because she remembered what she had been taught at Master Coaching about reading the questions first and then the text. She has learned time management skills that have also helped a great deal. I have noticed her general knowledge has grown stronger and she doesn’t seem as nervous prior to academic testing.

I’d like to thank all the dedicated staff at Master Coachingfor their fantastic teaching methods (special mention to Dianne) and for giving my daughterthe confidence she needed to sit the selective school test and I know she will take the skills she has learned with her throughout her future schooling.

My name is Tony and I attended St Patrick's College Strathfield. During my HSC year I came to Master Coaching in order to improve my results in economics which I was finding difficult. Mitchell was excellent in explaining the key economic concepts and made everything very easy to understand. Master Coaching was an excellent facility which definitely gave me the help and guidance I needed. Harry worked with me and Mitchell to make sure tutoring times were always easy to make and allowed my to fulfil other commitments.  I achieved a mark of 83 in economics which was well beyond my expectations and an overall ATAR of 90.0. Master Coaching was without doubt key to me achieving the results I desired.
