DOES YOUR CHILD NEED ASSISTANCE WITH IMPROVING THEIR READING?
Reading is an important skill for people of all ages. At TCC, we prioritise reading a variety of texts everyday to prepare students to be experts in the subjects they study.
Griffith University are offering free weekly tutoring sessions (online, for 6 months) to students aged 8-14, commencing soon.
If you are interested, please see the flyer below.
