ABOUT US

Lessons built around your circumstances to give you more flexibility

Students progress faster with focused sessions

Tutoring schedules can sometimes clash with busy lives. Whether it’s for Chemistry homework help or Maths lessons, a rigid plan often means committing to long arrangements upfront, which might not suit every student’s needs. 

Oftentimes, there’s the challenge of pre-paying for sessions only to find out that the learner may struggle with the set pace, the tutor’s approach or an inflexible timetable that doesn’t fit around other plans. 

That’s why, with us, adaptability is built into the way lessons are scheduled. You decide when to have lessons, and you only pay when each lesson is completed. This gives you the freedom to ramp up sessions before exams or pause when school is out for the holidays. 

You can also opt for a different Chemistry tutor when your schedule or learning needs require it. There are no lock-ins or contracts that restrict your learning. Lastly, payments and scheduling are handled securely through our platform. As one of the tutoring websites trusted by Australian students, you can focus on learning while we take care of the details.

What our Chemistry Students Think About Learnmate


LamyaReviews rating

I was struggling in chemistry for so long until I found Surbhi! She explains things in great depth a detail, making it really easy to understand. She even realises what details I might be missing and helps me to understand understand the basics so that I can understand the harder stuff. Only wish I had found her sooner!

MollyndaReviews rating

Louisa is an outstanding tutor in Chemistry. I've had Louisa as my tutor for two months now and I can confidently say that she provides excellent academic support to her students. Although I am an IB student and she completed the QCE, Louisa still achieves to precisely teach me the difficult concepts of Chemistry and continually aspires to learn more about the particular IB standards.

ChloeReviews rating

I really like how you introduce the topics broadly speaking initially, like discussing the real life applications to let us understand how it works in the real world which will help us visualise it as well. I also really like how you go in great detail explaining everything, and also doing many exam questions in every lesson. The questions were very relevant and have varying difficulties which help improve my abilities over time. Your explanations were also really really good. I never understood volumetric analysis in year 11 and initially in year 12 and I went through 2 chemistry tutors and also 3 school teachers over the course of a year and a half but you managed to teach me and let me fully understand and comprehend it in a matter of 20 minutes. I was seriously impressed.

LindaReviews rating

Benjamin has done wonders for my son. He tutors my son in Yr 12 Chemistry. My son’s confidence in the subject, and subsequently his grades, have improved significantly since seeing Benjamin. He was thinking of Chemistry being in his bottom 2 subjects prior to the tutoring, but that has now changed.

GillReviews rating

Pre is an absolutely fantastic tutor who has assisted my daughter with Units 3&4 in Biology and my son through VCE Units 3&4 in Biology & Chemistry. She is patient, knowledgable and incredibly encouraging. Often I found her taking the time to explain complex issues in a different way to ensure their full understanding. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Pre and we will miss her regular tutoring sessions!

EvaReviews rating

Jeannette is the best tutor I’ve ever had - she’s so friendly and good at explaining things that I always looked forward to and enjoyed our lessons. Her help is the reason why I scored highly in IB HL Chemistry. She’s a perfect IB tutor because she uses a lot of different resources and actual IB past paper questions. She also really helped me with my Chemistry IA. Thank you, Jeannette!!

How soon can I book a Chemistry tutor and start lessons?
Once you’ve identified the ideal Chemistry tutor, getting started is simple. You can message them directly to check availability and arrange lessons that fit your schedule. Most students begin within just a few days of reaching out. It’s a flexible, no-fuss way to get the support you need, right when you need it.
How can I prepare for my first lesson with a Chemistry tutor?
Start by gathering your recent school notes, assignments and any test results to provide your Chemistry tutor with a snapshot of your academic standing. This collection of materials allows them to identify where your strengths lie and the areas that require more focus.  Additionally, whether you’re looking for a VCE, IB or HSC tutor, having set goals such as mastering chemical equations or understanding specific reactions will guide the session. 
What makes 1:1 Chemistry tutoring different from classroom learning?
Individual attention transforms the learning experience. In a crowded classroom, the pace and content are dictated by the curriculum, often leading to a one-size-fits-all approach. 1:1 tutoring, however, places you at the heart of the lesson, allowing the pace to match your comprehension.  Questions are welcome at any moment, and instant feedback helps clarify misunderstandings right on the spot. With the focus solely on you, in-person or online Chemistry tutoring becomes a personalised experience tailored to your unique learning needs.
Can a Chemistry tutor help with experiments, lab reports and practical investigations?

Yes. Chemistry tutors can guide you through practical concepts, experiment design, analysis of results and writing lab reports. While experiments aren’t conducted during lessons, tutors teach the scientific method, help interpret data and ensure you understand how to apply theory in practical assessments.

Do Chemistry tutors cover advanced or extension topics beyond school curriculum?

Absolutely. Many Chemistry tutors support students who want extension work, whether that’s deeper organic chemistry, reaction mechanisms, equilibrium, thermodynamics or university preparation. Lessons can be customised for students aiming for high Band 6 results, selective entry or advanced study pathways.

How do I know if a Chemistry tutor is right for my learning style?

Tutor profiles on Learnmate show qualifications, teaching levels, reviews and verified checks, making it easy to compare options. You can message tutors directly to ask about their teaching approach — whether they use visual explanations, step-by-step breakdowns, exam-style practice or conceptual discussions — and choose the tutor who best matches how you learn.
