Welcome to Edworks! Founded in Melbourne in 1990, Edworks has assisted thousands of students achieve their academic dreams and go on to thrive in an increasingly competitive world. The key to our innovative tutoring program? We teach students critical thinking, creative problem-solving and effective communication skills. Importantly, too, we foster resilience and independence in students, allowing them to embrace both academic and social challenges with confidence and resolve.

As an educator and Psychologist, I developed the Edworks tutoring philosophy to equip students with 21st Century skills, and to show them that reaching a goal and following a dream is something over which they have control.

Edworks’ tutoring services recognise that success in the Innovation Age must go beyond students simply learning how to sit exams. Today, students need to learn how to innovate, think creatively and critically analyse data, if they are to succeed.

Edworks’ tutoring programs are personally tailored to the needs of each student, and delivered in a positive learning environment designed to foster self-esteem and motivate students to achieve their full potential.

Jack’s A+ Efforts

I am thrilled to convey to you our very good news that Jack obtained all A+ results … I am convinced that your input regarding background of topics and structure of essays was particularly instrumental in him obtaining such pleasing results. With Sally’s three Scholarship offers, our association with you has been both pleasant and rewarding – altogether a good investment for our children’s future.

The Edworks Tutoring Advantage

We are deeply appreciative of the competitive advantages, skills, thought processes and methodology that you have imparted to and instilled in Matt which has given him the ‘edge’ not only at the Scholarship examination, but also for use on an ongoing basis. We value the positive influence your tutoring has been. It continues to impact on many aspects of his life. We are confident that Matt will perform excellently, having been given a head start. Thank you for the wonderful opportunity that has been given to our son.

Sandeep Excels in English

Dear Edworks Tutoring Staff: I would like to take this opportunity to thank you … My essay writing has come a long way as you have taught me how to plan and structure essays efficiently. You have trained me to think clearly and to arrange my ideas in an effective manner in all my written work. I am now able to write fluently without any hesitation.

Sandeep, Hawthorn, Melbourne

Steven Learns Skills for Life

Steven has remarked on his use of the skills for working smart at school. We note a change in his attitude now he feels more confident with written tasks. I will not hesitate to recommend your tutoring services, particularly for children studying humanities – skills learned must make an amazing difference to studying such subjects. For Steven – I see the benefits as long term, carrying into his tertiary study.

Mrs. J.B., Glen Iris, Melbourne

“Scholarships are the Cream on the Cake”

First of all, ‘thank you’ for all your professional and thorough work with our daughter. Both our children have fond memories of Edworks’ staff and the sessions. We have noticed the positive impact it has on their enjoyment at school … Scholarships are the cream on the cake and we have had offers of 3 Scholarships from excellent schools for Mia … Add that to our eldest son’s Scholarship, and we think the results speak clearly for themselves.

Mr. and Mrs. J. P., Armadale, Melbourne

Tristan Tops the State

When I began with Edworks my English marks varied from C+ to B-, however by the conclusion of my tutoring I was ranked in the top 5 percent in the state in this subject. I have now acquired many new and valuable skills, including how to structure essays, locate relevant data in texts, and how to form a coherent argument from a range of topics and resources.

Tristan, Glen Waverley, Melbourne

James Scores Scholarship

Before I went to Edworks in a test I would get an average score, but now I get high scores in all the tests … The tutors there are also really nice and help you if you’re struggling. Also when I was close to my Scholarship Edworks timed me so I could get used to it. I got my scholarship! My favourite thing about Edworks is learning new things.

James, Brighton, Melbourne

It’s Medicine for Marcel

“It is my belief that the growth of a student is dependent on the quality of the tutor, and I know no tutors of a higher calibre than those provided by Edworks. It is my honest belief that I would not be where I am now if not for the experience I gained from their tutoring.”

Marcel B., ATAR: 99.8. Bachelor of Medicine and Bachelor of Surgery

Sara’s Selective Entry Success

“My experience at Edworks in short, has been unmatched by any other. Providing an excellent work environment and qualified tutoring services, students are pushed to the limits of their imagination without pressure and excess anxiety. I have no doubt that I owe my acceptance into Mac.Robertson Girls’ School to the engaging tutors at Edworks.

Sara, Doncaster, Melbourne

Confident & Capable

“The benefits have been enormous and you are to be highly commended for your insightful and excellent tutoring program. The result – our newly confident and capable daughter.”
