Newport Education Centre

Newport Education Centre specialises in catering for the individual needs of children at all educational levels. Operating on the Northern beaches of Sydney since 1988, we bring over 30 years of experience in tutoring to help ease your child’s educational issues. Owned and operated by Sharyn Whitton, who is highly regarded and respected in the local area and industry, Newport Education Centre provides individual programs for students from Kindergarten right through to year 12.

Our Tutors

At Newport Education Centre, our tutors have specialities in a wide variety of areas and understand how to make learning enjoyable and how to adapt curriculum to the individual needs of your child.

We know what your child needs to do to achieve success in the classroom and can secure them on a pathway to success.

Why is NEC different?

Newport Education Centre on the Northern Beaches has over 30 years of experience in the field.  All of our teachers are qualified, caring and experienced (no university students). Tuition is either one-to-one or two-to-one, with all children working on their own individual programs. This means they are working on what they need to work on when they need it.  Our programs are designed according to the individual needs of your child with consideration given to learning styles, strengths and weaknesses.  Homework is only given when it is requested and can be structured according to the time available at home to complete it.

We happily communicate with schools, occupational therapists, speech therapists, and psychologists who are working with your child to ensure a team approach.  Our office on the Northern Beaches is warm, open, inviting and inclusive to learning.  Students may work on homework in the waiting area before or after lessons if they wish.

Full reports are written at the end of each term and parents can communicate with the teachers at the centre giving them the flexibility to make changes to the structure or content of their child’s program at any time.

Lessons can be booked at the centre before, during, or after school, Monday to Thursday, to reach your child’s optimum learning time.
