This is not your traditional tutoring service.
We deliver neuroscience-based programs to optimise your learning and productivity.
A tutor works on a single subject.
We coach you to become an effective learner, so that you'll see results in all subjects.
But learning doesn't happen in a vacuum.
It relies on a healthy body and a positive mind.
All this can be learnt. We're here to help.
Academic coaching for high school students
Achieving your best in high school requires you to learn independently.
The problem is, nobody ever teaches us these skills.
We’re here to change that.
Unlike traditional tutoring, our neuroscience-based programs guide you to be an effective learner in all your subjects.

Why is our approach effective?
Prevention over treatment
Treatment
To understand our approach, think about a health issue. We tend to seek treatment after it's happened - by taking medicine, undergoing rehabilitation, or surgery. But you've already suffered and there'll be side-effects from the treatment.
Prevention
Prevention helps you build a healthier lifestyle so the problems don't arise in the first place. Nutritionists and coaches help you to form behaviours that set the foundations for a healthy lifestyle.
Tutoring - a treatment
A traditional tutor is like a treatment. You seek help after a poor test result or when you're falling behind in class. They'll diagnose your weaknesses and give remedial exercises. When you come across those same test questions, you'll hopefully see an improvement. But you've already suffered from the setback.
We aim to be the prevention.
What does it look like?
Masterclasses
We've distilled decades of teaching and leadership experience, with the latest in educational neuroscience to design a comprehensive learning program.
This program is presented through concise masterclasses, designed and delivered by our highly qualified learning coaches. Each masterclass is available on demand to watch whenever, wherever.
Implementation support
Simply telling people what to do rarely leads to results. That’s why we enrich our masterclasses with implementation support.
This support includes carefully designed activities, timely reminders, and the option of group or individual coaching workshops.
Each approach helps you build neuroscience-based habits that lead to effective learning.
What informs our work?
Neuroscience-based approaches to learning.
Our curriculum covers four areas that support brain-friendly learning and wellbeing.
Content is grounded in the latest learning science research and decades of education experience:
- Foundations - what your body and mind need for motivation and focus
- Mindset - your self-belief and approach to challenges
- Routines - structures for productivity and organisation
- Strategies - your toolkit for learning.

Our mission
We believe that anyone can become an effective learner. And learning is the key to unlocking your full potential.
Neuroscience shows us that all brains are 'plastic' - they respond when given the right stimulus. This is what we call learning. Yet many of us have decided that we aren't good learners. At Learnwell, we use insights from research and experience to change those attitudes.
We aim to give everyone confidence in their learning.
After decades of working with high school students, teachers, and adult learners, we know that very little time is spent on teaching people how to learn. But thanks to advances in research, we know what works to learn effectively.
We turn this research into practical advice and help you to implement it.
