Mairangi Tutors is a tuition service on Penzance Road in Mairangi Bay that focuses on maths and science for high school students. Its tutors will come to the student's home, or families can come to the office, which has several independent learning rooms. Individual online sessions are also available. The business says it tailors each session to the school curriculum, and it runs after-school lessons and weekend times.
Before exams the tutors run individual revision sessions, workshops and group revision clinics, which the business says have worked well. The website says the first lesson is free. Parents who have written about the tutors say their children's NCEA results improved, with one student getting Achieved, Merit and Excellence results across several subjects, and another getting Excellence in Year 11 linear algebra. A parent of a student who had been struggling says the tutors' patience and encouragement showed in school tests. For a Mairangi Bay family with a student in Year 11 to 13, the mix of home visits, office study and online lessons is the practical reason to look at it.
