"I highly recommend Pohutukawa Tutoring. My son is a past student who flourished with this important service they provide. My boy had not achieved a lot he was well behaved and got on well with everyone young and old but when it came to learning he got left behind. Almost ready to start college and he knew he'd struggle. I had to do something. Well I tell you he went from strength to strength. 1st year under Rachal he was rewarded for his efforts scoring 3 top prizes for his class and right to the end of college. Rachal had a way of reaching kids where schools haven't. She encouraged him beyond his wildest dreams. He was interested in building took it in year 13 finished top of the class. Right now he is in his 2nd year apprenticeship with a reputable company based in Whakatane/ Pukehina. Look what is happening to young adults in this town a lot not having been through something special like Pohutukawa Tutoring to get them doing what they should be doing. Without this help from Pohutukawa Tutoring my baby would be one of those statistics not achieving to his potential. I 100% recommend this for all children. Our kids deserve the best start in life.

"My three children aged 6, 8 and 11 have been doing tutoring with Rachal and Helena from Pohutukawa for a few years. They enjoy the lessons both in person and online. They have improved in reading and math, and I really value the regular updates I get on their progress. It is a great investment in their education!"

Pohutukawa Tutoring was an absolute game-changer in my child's learning journey. From the very first session, it was clear that this is not just a tutoring service—it’s a team genuinely committed to helping students grow in both confidence and capability. The tutors are incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and skilled at explaining concepts in a way that truly sticks. They take the time to understand each student's unique learning style and tailor lessons accordingly, making learning both effective and enjoyable. What sets Pohutukawa Tutoring apart is their warm, supportive approach. They create a positive learning environment that encourages questions, curiosity, and growth. Thanks to their guidance, I've seen noticeable improvement not just in academic performance, but also in motivation and self-belief. Their professionalism, passion, and dedication truly stand out.

"My two children having been coming to Pohutukawa Tutoring for two years now. I highly recommend them. Having one on one time has really helped both my kids. They have gained a lot of confidence and extra skills that have helped them grow and progress academically. They are always keen to go to their sessions. I’m very grateful to have this service available locally."
