Tristan Diakos, Co-Founder NextStepAcademy

Growing up, I struggled in almost every subject. My parents enrolled me in a large tutoring centre, but sitting in a crowded room, I could barely answer a single question.

Everything changed when they found me a 1-on-1 private tutor who actually tailored learning to how I thought. With the right support, I went from falling behind to graduating in the top 7% of NSW and earning an Engineering degree at USYD.

I built NextStepAcademy to give every student that exact same turning point.

Frequently Asked Questions

What if my child doesn't click with the tutor?

How quickly can we get started?

How do you track and report on my child's progress?

You’ll never be left guessing. Your tutor sends you a written summary after every single lesson covering what was worked on, how your child responded, and what’s planned next. Every 10 lessons you receive a detailed progress report highlighting improvements, areas still to focus on, and the strategy for the next block of sessions. Many parents share these reports directly with their child’s school teachers.

When is the best time to start tutoring?

There’s no wrong time to start. Some families come to us when they notice their child falling behind, others start early to build a strong foundation before things get difficult. The earlier you start, the easier it is to build confidence and close gaps before they widen. That said, we see incredible results even when students start mid-term or just weeks before exams. The best time is whenever you’re ready.

Will my child be assessed or tested?

There’s no formal test or intimidating assessment. Your tutor will naturally gauge your child’s level during the first session through conversation and light exercises. The goal is to build rapport and understand where your child is at, what they’re confident with and where the gaps are. From there your tutor creates a tailored plan that targets exactly what your child needs.

Are there contracts or upfront payments?

No. There are no contracts, no lock-in periods, no minimum lesson commitments and no upfront fees. We charge your card 24 hours after each lesson on a simple pay-as-you-go basis. You can pause, reschedule or cancel at any time with no penalties. If your child can’t make a lesson, just let us know 24 hours ahead and you won’t be charged. It’s tutoring on your terms.

Does my child actually need a tutor?

Tutoring isn’t just for students who are falling behind. Many of the highest-performing students in the country work with a private tutor behind the scenes. A tutor becomes a partner in your child’s education, someone who fills the gaps the classroom can’t, builds real confidence, and teaches strategies that last well beyond school. Whether your child needs to catch up or wants to push ahead, one-on-one support accelerates both.

How long are lessons and how often should they happen?

You decide with your tutor based on what works for your family. Most primary school students see the best results with 1-hour weekly sessions. High school students typically do 1.5 hours. For Year 11-12 students preparing for HSC, many families choose twice a week or extend to 2-hour sessions during assessment periods. There’s no fixed schedule and you can adjust the frequency anytime.

Will the tutor provide worksheets and study materials?

Yes, everything is taken care of. Your tutor has access to our library of over 7,000 resources covering every year level and subject, including worksheets, practice papers, past exams and study materials. They select the right resources for your child’s level and goals, and can also create custom materials when needed. You never need to source or print anything yourself.

Is the first lesson free?

The first lesson isn’t free, but it is completely risk-free. It’s covered by our First Lesson Guarantee which means if after the first session you aren’t happy with the tutor we’ve matched your child with, you don’t pay a cent. No questions asked. If you are happy, and we’re confident you will be, you simply add your payment details and continue with lessons on your schedule.

About Our English Tutoring in the Eastern Suburbs

Some students arrive at NextStepAcademy having quietly slipped behind in English for months, sometimes longer. A dropped essay mark here, a confusing feedback comment there, and suddenly the subject feels overwhelming. Our one-on-one English tutoring in the Eastern Suburbs is built for exactly this student, from Year 7 right through to HSC, and the first thing we do is work out precisely where things have come unstuck.

What separates NextStepAcademy from a generic tutoring platform is the matching process. Every English tutor we place is hand-picked, personally interviewed, and matched to your child's specific year level, text type struggles, and learning personality. There are no random assignments and no crossed fingers. Just one tutor, one student, and sessions built entirely around what that student actually needs.

Whether your child needs help with creative writing, essay structure, close textual analysis, or simply reading with more confidence, we have an English tutor who can meet them where they are. Families who need support across other subjects will also find that NextStepAcademy offers equally tailored maths tutoring in the Eastern Suburbs.

English Tutoring for Eastern Suburbs Students

Our tutors work with students from local schools across the Eastern Suburbs, including leading local schools. Whether your child is in a selective stream, working through standard curriculum, or sitting their HSC at one of these schools, your English tutor builds lessons that match the pace, assessment style and reporting periods of their specific classroom.

Why Is a English tutor Important?

For senior students in the Eastern Suburbs, English is a compulsory HSC subject and it carries real weight in the ATAR calculation. A strong Band 5 or Band 6 result can make a genuine difference to university entry, particularly for competitive courses. The pressure to perform in both the written exam and the extended response sections means preparation cannot be left to the last term.

The struggles parents tend to spot first are not always dramatic. It might be a student who spends three hours on an essay and still feels like they have said nothing, or one who reads the feedback and shuts the book in frustration. Confidence takes a hit quietly, and by the time a parent realises English has become a source of dread, the gap has usually been building for a while.

A good English tutor does not just go over what was taught in class. They rebuild the student's relationship with the subject, starting from the specific skill that broke down first. NextStepAcademy's matching process makes sure your child is paired with someone who understands both the syllabus and how to make a disengaged student feel capable again.

Achieve Your English Goals with NextStepAcademy

Students who work consistently with a NextStepAcademy English tutor typically see improvement in essay organisation, vocabulary range, and the ability to write under timed exam conditions. Beyond the marks, they develop habits that carry across every subject, planning responses, reading questions carefully, and managing their workload without last-minute panic.

The tutors we place are mentors as much as they are teachers. Many of them sat the same HSC texts not long ago and remember exactly what it felt like to stare at a Module B question with no idea where to start. That shared experience shapes the way they teach, making each session feel less like a lesson and more like a conversation with someone who genuinely wants the student to succeed.

Finding the Perfect English tutor Is Easy with NextStepAcademy

Getting started is straightforward. You tell us about your child, their year level, the specific areas causing the most stress, and any preferences around tutor style or timing. Within 48 to 72 hours we send you a matched tutor profile to review before anything is confirmed. You are never locked in before you feel comfortable.

Every NextStepAcademy tutor is Working With Children Check verified and double reference checked before they ever meet a student. There is no upfront payment, no lock-in contract, and every new family is covered by our First Lesson Guarantee. If the first session does not feel right, we rematch you at no cost.
