What is the average price for a private tutor?
Private tutor prices vary depending on the tutor’s experience, subject, class format, and session length. FunFox Program offers predictable online pricing for eligible Year 3 programs, including $165 monthly for a 3-month term and a one-time AUD $80 registration fee. This includes weekly live classes, structured learning materials, and teacher feedback to support steady progress.
What should year 3 be learning?
Year 3 students should be building stronger reading comprehension, vocabulary, grammar, spelling, paragraph writing, and confidence explaining ideas clearly. They also begin developing deeper thinking skills, such as identifying key details, making inferences, supporting opinions, and understanding different text types. FunFox supports these skills through reading strategies, literary analysis, writing genres, and personalised feedback.
Is FunFox Program suitable for Year 3 students?
Yes. FunFox Program’s Readers Club is suitable for students in Years 3–6, while the Writers Club supports students in Years 1–6. For Year 3 learners, this means tutoring can focus on the important transition from basic literacy to more independent reading, structured writing, stronger vocabulary, and clearer written expression.
How are the online tutoring sessions delivered?
FunFox Year 3 tutoring is delivered online through live weekly classes. Students join interactive small-group sessions led by qualified instructors, complete digital or structured worksheets, and receive teacher feedback. The format is designed to keep children engaged while giving them regular practice in reading comprehension, writing, grammar, vocabulary, and critical thinking.
How many students are in each class?
Readers Club classes are small-group sessions with 3–6 students, encouraging discussion, collaboration, and individual attention. Writers Club classes are also interactive and small-group based. This format helps Year 3 students feel comfortable participating, asking questions, sharing ideas, and learning from peers while still receiving guided teacher support.
What writing skills are covered for Year 3 students?
The Writers Club focuses on a different writing genre each term, including descriptive, narrative, persuasive, and informative writing. Across the year, students also build vocabulary, sentence structure, paragraphing, spelling, and grammar. Year 3 students learn how to organise ideas clearly, use stronger word choices, and develop confidence writing for different purposes.
What reading skills are covered in the program?
The Readers Club goes beyond basic comprehension drills. It teaches critical thinking, comprehension strategies, and introductory literary analysis. Year 3 students learn how to locate answers in a text, adapt strategies to different question types, interpret meaning, and begin recognising literary devices in an age-appropriate way.
Do students receive homework and feedback?
Yes. FunFox programs include structured worksheets and personalised teacher feedback to reinforce learning between live classes. This helps parents see what their child is practising and gives students clear guidance on how to improve. The feedback supports consistent progress rather than relying only on one weekly lesson.
