Tutorial and study support

Aurora College's tutorial and study support program provides targeted asistance for students who need extra learning support or who have been absent due to illness, home-school commitments, or other circumstances. The program is designed to help students catch up, consolidate learning, and build the skills and confidence to become self-sufficient learners.

How it works

Tutorials are delivered online by experienced Aurora College teachers in small-group or one-on-one sessions. Programs usually run for approximately 10 weeks and are tailored to each students individual needs. Students may receive support in:

• Aurora College subject areas
• Study strategies and organisational skills
• Managing assessment tasks and learning at a steady pace
• Developing independent learning and problem-solving skills

Benefits for students

Participation in the tutorial and study support program helps students to:

• Catch up on missed learning and consolidate understanding
• Build confidence and resilience in their studies
• Develop effective study habits and independent learning strategies
• Engage with teachers and peers in a supportive learning environment

While primarily focused on learning support, the program aligns with the NSW Department of Education's High Potential and Gifted Education (HPGE) Policy by fostering students intellectual, creative, and social-emotional potential. It supports cognitive growth, problem-solving skills, and confidence, enabling students to achieve personal learning goals and thrive in their broader educational experience.

Accessing support

Tutorial and study support is available to students who have actively engaged in their learning and are seeking targeted assistance to consolidate understanding or catch up after unforeseen circumstances. Students are encouraged to use the program as a help-seeking strategy when additional support will enhance their learning, with teachers serving as the first point of contact to discuss their needs.
