GED Tutoring Services: Achieve Your High School Equivalency

Our greatest teaching tool is our passion. We get involved — head and heart — and have a vested interest in seeing our students grow.

A student working towards their GED

Your GED tests are looming… are you prepared?

Every one of our GED tutors has passed our tutor training programme with distinction, and then passed the GED at the 99th percentile. Our GED tutors don’t just know the work, they know how to teach it.

Our GED students frequently improve their scores by 30 to 40 points.

Your GED tutoring needs are assessed

Student profile

Study habits, routines, interests, and learning style — an in-depth qualitative and quantitative review of the student’s scholastic career.

GED mock exam and diagnostics

Following the initial family interview, the student writes a full-length GED at our assessment centre, analysed to determine the specific subsections and question types to focus on — and the kinds of mistakes the student tends to make.

Then we create an action plan

Trained GED Maths, English, Science, and Social Studies tutors get you up to speed on:

GED Mathematics

Number operations, algebra, functions, patterns, measurement, geometry, data analysis, statistics, and probability.

GED Language Arts – Reading

Poetry, drama, fiction and nonfiction prose, critical reviews, workplace and community documents.

GED Language Arts – Writing

Organisation, sentence structure, usage, mechanics, and essay writing.

GED Science

Physics, chemistry, biology, earth science, and space science.

GED Social Studies

Geography, US history, Canadian history, world history, civics, government, and economics.

GED test-taking techniques

We teach you test-taking tools, tricks and techniques designed to maximise your GED score.

How we operate

  1. Initial Consultation

    We begin with a personalised consultation at our Fourways assessment centre, where we gain a thorough understanding of the student’s academic background, study approach, and long-term goals. This process includes both a qualitative discussion and a detailed analysis of their academic performance to ensure we tailor our approach to their unique needs.

  2. Tutor Matching

    If tuition is recommended, we carefully select a tutor from our team who aligns with the student’s learning style and personality. Since we work directly with our tutors — not as an agency — we ensure that every student is paired with a mentor they can trust, connect with, and feel motivated to learn from.

  3. Personalised One-on-One Tuition

    Lessons take place in the comfort of your home or at school, providing a structured yet flexible learning experience. Tutors establish a strong working relationship with the student, ensuring that lessons are engaging, effective, and aligned with their curriculum. Progress is monitored continuously, with structured work assigned between sessions to reinforce learning and track improvement.
