It’s Boost’s Final Chapter

Dear Parents and Students,
After much reflection, I have made the difficult decision that after 10 years, this term will be the final chapter for me as an English tutor, and will be closing Boost Academy at the commencement of this term. My husband and I have recently purchased a new home, and we will be focusing on our family during this exciting time. As a result, I will be stepping away from teaching.

Wishing you and your families all the best,

Warm regards,
Jenny Page
