Professional, kind, organised and patient. Am so grateful to find Nanditha. Such a great resource and help during our year 12 studies. Can’t recommend her any more highly. Has been a seamless experience and I know it will continue to be. Very reliable.

Tania has a lovely way of teaching. She is calm, patient and succinct without ‘over teaching’. She was able to very quickly identify what worked with our year 12 son and gain his trust and respect. She has helped him grow in confidence in his English analysis, text and article responses - and his enjoyment of English. He also draws on these skills in assessing media reports!We have had such a fabulous experience with Tania and would come back to her in a heartbeat for any future tutoring needs. Thank so much Tania!

I think Atifa is really helpful and understanding. I have been doing alright with English and tutoring with Atifa has helped me improved. Through my persuasive writing, there is a clear improvement and it has been more visual through my marks as well. She is friendly and kind and is a great help when revising overwork and assignments. She is honest when it is needed and provides constructive feedback. She is a great tutor and to be her student is an honour.

    Our son had the first introductory lesson with Gauravi for Chemistry and UCAT preparation. and we found her to be precise and supportive. Our son felt confident about the chapter she took him through and clearly saw the benefit of continuing learning with her. We look forward to her sharing tips and tricks that helped her achieve her great results!

Minimum requirements

People come to Learnmate with specific learning objectives in mind and it is important that tutors are able to help them achieve those objectives. Accordingly, it is important that you have the ability, experience, knowledge and resources (or willing to obtain them) to get the best out of your students. This generally means having materials, plans and resources to provide your clients.

The most important thing we look for in tutors is passion and commitment to helping others achieve their learning goals.

Tutors and coaches must apply to list on Learnmate and meet certain minimum requirements before approved to list. Learnmate reviews all applications to ensure that tutors and coaches meet a minimum level of relevant experience and/or qualification.

Tutors and coaches are available both online and in-person all across Australia. Whether you’re in a metropolitan CBD or living in a remote location, there will be someone for you on Learnmate.

Tutors choose where and how they tutor - some will tutor online and in-person and some may only do one or the other. You can use Learnmate's filters located on the left hand side of your search (if you can't see it, press the little green tab) to see if there are tutors near you.

The availability of in-person tutoring will depend on your location and particular need. As tutors have spent the last few years learning and teaching online, we're confident they have mastered teaching online and can be just as effective as if they were in-person. 

Option 1. Contact tutors

Once you have found a tutor or coach that you want to work with, click 'Contact tutor' on their profile to reach out to the tutor directly. Discuss your requirements with the tutor, ask questions about their experience, availability and rates and decide if you want to proceed to lessons. If you do, and your tutor is available at a suitable time, ask them to schedule lessons in; you will receive notifications when lessons are booked and they will start to appear in your calendar on Learnmate.

Option 2. Request a lesson

Alternatively, you can request a lesson directly from a tutor by clicking 'Request lesson' on a tutor's profile and provide your tutoring requirements, desired day and times for a lesson.

If you are looking to request an in-person lesson, make sure your tutor is in your area by using Learnmate's advanced location filter. To increase the likelihood your tutor can fit you in, we suggest that you request for your first lesson to be online.

If your tutor is available, they will schedule in your lesson and you will be notified once it is booked in your calendar on Learnmate.

The likes of Airbnb, Amazon, Zoom, Atlassian, Shopify and many other companies you deal with on a day-to-day basis all use Stripe to process payments. 

You're in safe and secure hands with Stripe. 

If you're engaging a tutor for a school student, the answer will depend on the student’s specific needs, current level and goals.

Evidence for Learning (2020) believe that optimum impact is achieved in one-to-one tutoring where short (roughly 30 minute) regular lessons are completed 3-5 times per week (i.e. 1.5-2.5 hours per week) over a set period of time. Our data suggests this is most suitable for younger and primary school tuition, whereas Year 11-12 tuition tends to be longer (1-1.5 hours) lessons and should occur 1-2 times per week.
