Enrolment Information 2022
About Us
Our Founder, Principal & CEO, Sia Goutzas, established Maths Words not Squiggles (MWNS) in January 2003. Our centres provide quality Maths & English tuition for students in Kindergarten through to Year 12. We specialise in Individual Lessons as well as in Micro Groups, which consists of a maximum of 3 students. Our Learning Centres offer a safe, friendly environment that allows us to focus on the individual needs of each of our students.
Enrolment, Attendance & Rescheduling
Students may choose to enrol for a:
- Single Lesson
- Term Enrolment
- Ongoing Enrolment
Students are expected to attend their scheduled lessons on their allocated day & time each week. If a student forgets to attend a lesson, it will not be our responsibility to call & remind them.
Parents and/or students may reschedule lessons up until the day before the scheduled lesson. If a lesson is not rescheduled within the current term, this lesson is forfeited. Lessons cancelled on the day may not be rescheduled due to the short notice provided. No credits or refunds will be issued for absences with or without notice.
Enrolment pack
An Enrolment Pack will be issued to all students who enrol for a Term or an Ongoing Enrolment. Enrolment Packs include a:
- Folder
- Writing Book
- Homework Sheet
- Maths and/or English Workbook
Your child will need to bring their Enrolment Pack to each lesson as well as any additional material they require assistance with.
A one-off $30 fee is charged, each year, for new student’s Enrolment Packs.
Teachers
Teachers are scheduled to teach on certain days throughout the week. If a teacher is absent, we will endeavour to find a replacement teacher. If we are unable to, we will notify you as soon as possible and give you the option to either reschedule this lesson or apply a credit to your account.
