Our teaching ethos at MWNS is to help our students achieve their personal best so they can get to where they need to be.

our Teachers
Our team at MWNS consists of amazing qualified teachers and experienced tutors who are able to effectively communicate their subject area to our students. Our Primary Teachers focus solely on our Kindergarten to Year 6 students where as our High School Teachers target our secondary students within their area of expertise. Our Senior Maths and English Teachers concentrate on achieving the absolute best results from our Year 11 and Year 12 students knowing first hand what a difference the right advice can make. To compliment our teachers’ abilities and experiences, all our centres have an extensive range of resources, which allows our tutors to teach each individual student according to the unique learning style.
