Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
As Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) becomes better understood and more widely recognised, the need for specialised education and support becomes increasingly crucial. This necessity is amplified by the prevalence of harmful misinformation surrounding autism and its management. Families with a child on the autism spectrum often seek personalised tutoring to unlock their loved one’s full potential. The Star Academy was created to meet this demand, offering exceptional autism tutoring services across various locations, while also expanding its reach to London.
The Star Academy extends its reach internationally
The Star Academy operates several centres, providing accessible support for individuals with autism. In South Africa, these centres are situated in Johannesburg’s Highlands North, Waverley, and Fourways, as well as in Cape Town, Durban, Pretoria, and Rustenburg. Additionally, The Star Academy extends its reach internationally through innovative approaches such as international rotations, where instructors travel to meet individuals and provide in-person tutoring for a limited duration. Some instructors work with the child for over 3 months in some cases! This hands-on approach fosters deeper connections and facilitates
comprehensive learning experiences.
Our commitment to reaching individuals
Excitingly, The Star Academy is aiming to open a centre in London, enhancing access to high-quality autism tutoring services in the United Kingdom. This expansion underscores the organisation’s commitment to reaching individuals and families wherever they reside, ensuring no one is left behind in their academic and personal growth journey.
