Blacktown tutoring that works. No more exam day dread.
Maths and English for Years 3–12, Opportunity Class (OC) and Selective test preparation, and HSC Sciences.
Tutoring often doesn’t work because it’s a compromise.
Tutoring franchises
- Affordable
- Tutor quality varies, and lessons are rarely built around your child’s gaps
- Classes are often large, so each child gets less of the tutor’s time
Private tutoring
- Undivided attention
- Expensive
- Good tutors are hard to find
We built Lux so families can have affordable and personalised tutoring.

What students & parents say
What a 97.0 average ATAR actually means
KEEP SCROLLING
The Lux system for academic success.
Top tutors, a system for learning, and a supportive environment.
Top tutors
Our tutors have all scored in the highest result band (Band 6 or E4) in the subject they teach.
A science-based system
Teaching materials and homework drawn from the notes of the highest achievers, used in a six-stage lesson sequence built on cognitive science.
A supportive environment
Classes of 1–5, so no one gets lost at the back. A motivational space where students learn alongside top-achieving tutors and earn rewards for their hard work.
Inside the system · every class, six stages
Class review
Rapid retrieval practice of past concepts — active recall to beat the forgetting curve.
Explicit instruction
Theory broken into the smallest parts, taught in simple, consistent language.
Guided practice
Worked examples together, tutor scaffolding fading as competence grows.
Independent practice
Exam-style questions with instant feedback, so errors are caught before they stick.
Exit test
A short end-of-class check on retention; targeted homework where needed.
Homework
Weekly consolidation that moves class learning into long-term memory.
The people who'll be teaching your child.

Before you book.
What happens in a free trial?
Your child attends a class where they get the full Lux Tuition experience with teaching, worksheets, and homework provided. They just need to bring themselves and a pencil case. They can see for themselves if our method is helpful for them.
Do you offer a free assessment?
Our tutors will assess your child's ability as they teach them in the trial class. This allows you to experience our style rather than just taking an assessment test. You can also email us any of your child's reports and past assessments to help us personalise our tutoring approach to your child's unique needs.
Do you teach the same curriculum as schools?
Yes, we use the same NESA curriculum. All the content we teach is syllabus-aligned and the same as the topics covered by school.
Is there homework?
Yes, homework is a part of our lesson design to ensure that students deepen their understanding of what they learn in class. Students are rewarded with tokens for completing their homework which they can use for prizes.
Do we test our students?
We have up to two tests each term to assess how well students have learnt the content and to look for weak spots to work on.
Are classes all the same grade or mixed?
All classes are arranged per year, so your child learns in a supportive environment with peers at their level and the tutor can focus on teaching topics that everyone is going through.
Are our classes at the same level as the school level?
Our classes are per year. Students will not be taught content at a higher level unless they enrol in a higher year level.
What if my child doesn't like it?
After the trial, you have the 30 day guarantee. If you're not loving our services then let us know and we will give you your money back. No hoops to jump through. Read the full guarantee terms.
Can I leave part-way through a term?
Yes, there are no lock in contracts. Leave anytime.
Is my child safe?
We are fully compliant with all Working With Children Check regulations with all tutors having a WWCC. Each room of the centre is monitored via CCTV for your peace of mind.
Do we have online classes?
Yes, we offer an online attendance option. Just let us know.
How does payment work?
You have the option of paying fortnightly or for the whole term up front. We accept all major payment options including card.
