No one should be denied the opportunity to build a better life because they were under taught.

If you feel like you missed important skills in school, or the classes went way over your head, it's not too late.

There's a million reasons kids don't learn the basics they need in school
  • Childhood trauma and abuse
  • Kids being kids, not realising the cost
  • Growing up in poverty, working to survive
  • Learned distrust of schools and teachers

It's not your fault that there were circumstances outside your control as a child. You don't need to let that control your life as an adult though.

You feel like you're not smart enough. You're asking yourself why you struggle to learn.

The truth is - the system wasn't set up to help you catch up once you fall behind, but Second Chance Academy will take it back to basics.

We pride ourselves on clear and simple instructions in plain English that anyone can understand. There's no need for fancy phrases that sound nice but only confuse people further.

We know that learning gaps can be filled - no matter your age. We passionately believe everyone deserves a second chance at gaining the skills they need to succeed with second chance learning.

Second Chance Stories

No scripts. No spin. Just stories from people who took the leap.

“Second Chance Academy assisted me in writing a university scholarship application by commenting on more appropriate and professional ways I could reword certain parts of my application. They made it easy for me to understand and their assistance and guidance was amazing. I would definitely go ask again when needed. ”

Billi Williams (Ballarat, VIC)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“Second Chance Academy helped me construct my first ever uni essay where I lacked direction of how to structure all of the information I had collected into what was required. They helped explain the different layouts and eliminate repeating myself, including unnecessary information while presenting it in a professional way. They explained everything very clearly and really helped give a template for all my future essays that I could then use which was amazing!”

“Second Chance Academy helped me improve my writing skills, and pushed me to write in more detail. They encouraged me to be clear and helped me write things for work and university that I feel really proud of. I would definitely recommend working with these guys!”
