At Apex Tuition Australia, nothing means more to us than hearing directly from the students we work with.

In this post, we're sharing Charlie's experience, an IB student who came to us struggling with motivation and direction. Charlie received tutoring for Chemistry and English Literature. With the support of her tutor Victoria, Charlie saw a genuine turnaround in both her confidence and her results.

In her testimonial, Charlie reflects on how working with her Apex tutor Victoria transformed her approach to both IB Chemistry and English Literature. Before starting tutoring, Charlie found herself stuck, lacking motivation and unsure of what to actually study week to week. Having a set, structured time each week with Victoria gave her the accountability she needed, along with regular, targeted feedback on her work. She credits Victoria with pushing her to prepare properly for English, an area many IB students find difficult to self-direct, and says she saw massive improvements across both subjects. Charlie wholeheartedly recommends Victoria and the Apex experience to any IB student looking for the same kind of breakthrough.

Check out Charlie's experience with Apex Tuition Australia in this short video.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
