Tutors cover all four NAPLAN domains — reading, writing, language conventions and numeracy — for Years 3 and 5 across every state, with preparation aligned to the Australian Curriculum.

Learnmate connects families with primary school tutoring specialists across literacy, numeracy, NAPLAN preparation and selective school entry coaching in every major Australian city.
Primary school tutoring is sought for three main reasons: catching up when a child is falling behind in literacy or numeracy, preparing for NAPLAN in Years 3 and 5, or building ahead for selective secondary entry and scholarship testing. NAPLAN tests all Australian primary students in Years 3 and 5, covering reading, writing, language conventions and numeracy. Tests run in May and June, and preparation typically starts in Term 1. Tutors on Learnmate align sessions to the Australian Curriculum at each year level, from foundational phonics and number sense in Kindergarten and Year 1 through to the extended reading, writing and mathematical reasoning of Years 5 and 6.
Online delivery is a particular strength of Learnmate’s primary school tutoring network — giving families in regional Australia, outer metropolitan suburbs and rural areas access to qualified classroom teachers and NAPLAN specialists they may not find locally. In-person tutoring is available across all major cities: browse Primary School Tutors Melbourne, Primary School Tutors Sydney, Primary School Tutors Perth, Primary School Tutors Adelaide and Primary School Tutors Brisbane for city-specific tutor listings and suburb coverage.
Learnmate is Australia’s leading online tutoring marketplace, connecting families with verified primary school tutors across every city, subject and year level. For primary school families, Learnmate provides access to tutors who understand the Australian Curriculum at each year level, know the NAPLAN assessment framework for Years 3 and 5, and have specific experience supporting students from Kindergarten through Year 6. All tutors are verified before listing, and payments are processed automatically after each lesson — no cash, no invoicing, no lock-in contracts.
Private one-on-one primary school tutoring works best when sessions target the specific literacy or numeracy skill a child needs to strengthen at their current year level — not a fixed programme delivered at group pace. Learnmate lets families browse by subject, compare credentials and reach out directly to a tutor whose experience matches their child’s needs. From $44/hr, well below the cost of tutoring centres, with no intake process and no obligation beyond the first session.

Holly has tutored my son for almost a year. She was able to quickly build trust and rapport with my son and target his needs through testing & weekly exercises. My son commenced grade 6, six months “behind standard” in Writing, Spelling and Comprehension and is now “at standard” and “exceeding expectation” for Comprehension. Thanks Holly, this success is attributed to your experience & expertise!
Sona has been fantastic with my daughter, Jess who is in primary school. The marks are going up so seeing the results but the best thing is Jess’ confidence is improving and she’s enjoying maths more. I see good consistency, patience and alignment with the school’s approach. It has been effective since the first session.
Tutoring has made my daughter more confident in her essay writing!
Jaye is a wonderful lady and has helped my primary school age son work his averages up in his class a lot.
My primary school son has responded well to receiving online tutoring sessions, possibly more receptive than in person. The tutor has helped to extend his writing whilst keeping him focused during the 1 hour session.
Samantha is friendly, personable and professional. The tutoring sessions were personalised and catered to my sons primary grade level and educational needs. I highly recommend Samantha's service.
