The Zenith Approach to Success

Don’t pay for what you don’t need!

The industry is rampant with over charging. Don’t pay for facilities and digital platforms you don’t need.

At Zenith Education, we focus on the things that matter to provide real value to your child’s education.

  • Classes average 4 students to ensure that each student receives personalised attention throughout each lesson.

    Lessons are designed to engage students and ensure they enjoy coming back every week.

  • We follow a rigorous hiring process to ensure our teachers are not only experts in their subjects but also the best teachers.

    All our teachers have a strong care factor for their student’s engagement and progress.

  • Our programs are developed by industry professionals to ensure students have questions to suit their ability and encourage them through the appropriate levels of progression. No sudden changes of difficulty!

  • We keep a close eye on your students progress to ensure they are heading towards their academic goals.

    This is achieved through regular discussions with teachers and ongoing work review.

Course Outline

The Zenith Education Program specialises in preparing students in Years 3 and 4 for the Opportunity Class (OC) placement test following the NESA syllabus. By partnering with Zenith Education, Feng Hua Chinese School is now able to offer its students and parents a targeted tutoring program. Our program is specifically designed to help students excel in these critical areas, giving them the confidence and capability to achieve their best results in school and in life.

English - we focus on building strong foundations in reading comprehension, vocabulary, and writing skills.

Mathematics - we ensure students master key concepts and problem-solving strategies, enabling them to approach complex questions with clarity and precision.

Thinking skills - we teach students to think critically and respond effectively under time pressure to being assessed on logical reasoning, analytical ability, and problem-solving questions.

With our experienced tutors, customised lesson plans, and supportive learning environment, we provide a comprehensive approach to OC test preparation. Classes are taught in stages and individual student progress is closely monitored to identify student strengths and areas of improvement, allowing the most suitable level of content to be provided for maximum engagement and progress.
