Good teachers are costly, but bad teachers cost more.

Meet our Founder

Walter Sprinkle: After being frustrated with conventional teaching practices - I felt I could do it better, only if I could connect more with my students. Having coached basketball teams, I noticed that the stand-out players had a passion and an enthusiasm which I hoped to somehow replicate in the classroom. So after more than 20 years of teaching various schools around country NSW and Sydney, I ended up founding Smart Moves. I especially enjoy seeing student faces after they finally see the fruits of their labour paying off. Today I am semi-retired (I still pop in occasionally to help with training the tutors) but enjoy travelling much more especially to my hometown (in the USA).
