Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some common questions from students and parents considering Apex Scholars:

Do I need to be doing a specific sport or subject?

No. Our program is flexible and tailored to each student’s interests, however our founder has expert knowledge in STEM subjects so these would be the most rewarding for our students.

Are sessions online or in person?

All resources are fully digital to make them easily accessible to our students, and coaching sessions are online so that our clients don't waste time travelling, allowing for greater commitments to developing on other parts of this service.

What age of students is this program for?

The program is designed for students in secondary school and college-level students who want to excel academically and/or athletically.

Do I need to be athletic to join?

No. Our fitness guidance is personalised for all levels, from beginners to competitive athletes. However it is recommended you do at least some physical activity during your time with this service to get the most value from this program.

Do I need to be a high-achieving student to join?

No. Students at all levels can benefit, though our methods are designed to help ambitious students maximise potential.

Can I switch packages if my needs change?

Yes. We can adjust your package as your academic or athletic goals evolve.

How flexible is the scheduling?

We work with you to create a schedule that fits around school, training, and personal commitments.

What happens if I miss a session?

If you give us notice that the session will be missed, we can swiftly re-arrange it to the next best available time, so you don't miss out during that week. If it is still missed, then resources and guidance will be given so students don't fall behind.

What makes Apex Scholars different from other tutoring services?

Most tutors/coaches/mentors only focus on one aspect: Academic, Fitness or Personal Development. Apex Scholars combines all 3; academic excellence with personal development and athletic coaching, offering a holistic approach to student success.
