GED Tutoring Services: Achieve Your High School Equivalency

Our greatest teaching tool is our passion. We get involved - head and heart - and have a vested interest in seeing our students grow.

Your GED tests are looming… are you prepared?

Every one of our GED tutors has passed our tutor training programme with distinction and achieved a 99th-percentile score on the GED. Our GED tutors not only know the work but also know how to teach it.

Our GED students frequently improve their scores by 30 to 40 points.

Your GED tutoring needs are assessed

Student profile

Study habits, routines, interests, and learning style - an in-depth qualitative and quantitative review of the student’s scholastic career.

GED mock exam and diagnostics

Following the initial family interview, the student writes a full-length GED at our assessment centre. We analyse the exam to determine the specific subsections and question types to focus on - and the kinds of mistakes the student tends to make.

Then we create an action plan

Trained GED Maths, English, Science, and Social Studies tutors get you up to speed on:

GED Mathematical Reasoning

Number operations, algebra, functions, patterns, measurement, geometry, data analysis, statistics, and probability.

GED Reasoning Through Language Arts

Close reading of complex texts, clear argument-based writing including the Extended Response essay, and editing and using standard written English in context.

GED Science

Life science, physical science, and earth and space science - biology, chemistry, physics and the earth and space topics that sit under them.

GED Social Studies

Civics and government, United States history, economics, and geography and the world.

GED test-taking techniques

We teach you test-taking tools, tricks and techniques designed to maximise your GED score.

How we operate

  1. Initial Consultation

    We begin with a personalised consultation at our Fourways assessment centre, where we gain a thorough understanding of the student’s academic background, study approach, and long-term goals. This process includes both a qualitative discussion and a detailed analysis of their academic performance to ensure we tailor our approach to their unique needs.

  2. Tutor Matching

    If tuition is recommended, we carefully select a tutor from our team who aligns with the student’s learning style and personality. Since we work directly with our tutors - not as an agency - we ensure that every student is paired with a mentor they can trust, connect with, and feel motivated to learn from.

  3. Personalised One-on-One Tuition

    Lessons take place in the comfort of your home or at school, providing a structured yet flexible learning experience. Tutors establish a strong working relationship with the student, ensuring that lessons are engaging, effective, and aligned with their curriculum. Progress is monitored continuously, with structured work assigned between sessions to reinforce learning and track improvement.

What our families say

While we were skeptical about investing so much money in a parallel academic programme over and above the fees we pay, Genius has proven to be the best investment we have ever made for our child.
