What our students are saying

Joining Cognito was probably one of the best decisions I’ve made! The tutors are not only highly knowledgeable and passionate, but also personable and easy to get along with. For me, the biggest difference between Cognito and other tuition centres is their ability to foster a competitive environment that motivates me to do my best without adding undue pressure or stress. It has been a wonderful community to be a part of, and the tutors here truly made the most daunting years of high school a memorable experience!

What sets Cognito apart is their dedicated team that genuinely cares about each student and wants to make sure they can apply what they learn with confidence. My tutors have been endlessly supportive and generous with their advice, expertise, and time - regarding academic matters and beyond. Not only were their resources very targeted and helpful, but the engaging delivery of the content ensured I understood the concepts deeply and also enjoyed the process of learning. I can safely say I wouldn't have done as well if not for them - so thank you cog!

Cognito is the best tutoring centre I've ever been to! The tutors are highly knowledgeable, passionate, and friendly. I'm so grateful for all the extra explanations and feedback that my tutors have given me, both in class time and in their valuable leisure time. They truly go above and beyond to help students thrive!

At other tuition centres with 20 - 30 student classes, I would always get distracted and not learn much. In my 4 student class at Cognito, I am constantly engaged and this has allowed me to learn much more easily and enjoyably.

Having attended various tutoring centres around the city, I can honestly say that Cognito Tuition is one of the very best. They offer highly personalised classes at very competitive prices and the tutors' dedication towards the success of their students is unparalleled. Highly recommended

Underpinned by incredibly supportive, knowledgeable and passionate tutors, Cognito not only simplified the Year 12 chem and phys modules into digestible chunks, but made the entire experience enjoyable, with interactive lessons and accessible study places. I loved the commitment to going above and beyond, when they held seminars during covid lockdowns to not only prep us for hsc but for vital uni applications and interviews.
