Really happy with our Tutor Cathy, she is very attentive to my daughter's needs and provides me with regular updates regarding my child's progress. She is a lovely caring beautiful lady and I would highly recommend, I'm so glad we found Cathy :) My daughter looks forward to her tutoring lesson each week
We found a great tutor for our daughter's HSC exams. The tutoring was very structured, outcome-focused and encouraging taking my daughter through all the curriculum requirements. The platform is super easy to use, straight forward, no need to buy a certain amount of lessons in advance and ability to reschedule lessons if need be, without penalty. Every lesson comes with a lesson digest for the parents.
I heard about Learnmate from school counsellor, and it's been fantastic. We found the right tutor for our daughter, and it goes really well. Learnmate makes everything easier. Thank you, highly recommend Learnmate to everyone.
Can highly recommend this platform. Our tutor knew the content very well and our daughter now she feels confident for exams. Simon was always happy to help with any queries we had and guided us through the process.
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!
We are thrilled at the transformation in our son's performance and attitude towards maths since starting. In a very short space of time, maths has become his best subject and his confidence level is high. He actually enjoys his tutoring sessions. Dane has quickly transformed him. We are thrilled and I could not recommend Dane more highly.

Many families begin tutoring anytime from Year 1 onward, especially if they want to strengthen early literacy and numeracy habits. Others start in Years 3–6 as school expectations increase. The “right” time depends on your child’s confidence, learning pace and whether teachers or parents notice emerging gaps.
Look for tutors who understand the Australian Curriculum, have experience teaching young learners and can adapt lessons to your child’s pace and personality. On Learnmate, you can compare verified WWCC badges, qualifications, reviews and hourly rates to make an informed, confident choice.
Sessions usually include short, engaging activities that build core skills in reading, writing or maths. Tutors often use games, visual aids and real-life examples to maintain focus. Lessons are designed to be supportive and enjoyable, ensuring your child feels encouraged—not pressured—as they learn.
Concerned that group learning doesn't cater to your child’s pace?
In subjects like English, home tutoring for children can help them master phonetics and words until they become second nature. Maths tutors take a similar approach, guiding students through addition, subtraction and other core concepts at a pace that suits them best.
Such a personalised rhythm builds genuine understanding and encourages self-confidence and curiosity in students. One on one tutoring for foundational skills also helps identify misconceptions early. Tutors quickly correct small errors to strengthen comprehension.
With a dedicated tutor’s encouragement, students learn that asking questions, making mistakes and trying again will lead to success. These early experiences shape lasting attitudes towards learning. Years 1–6 literacy and numeracy skills lay the groundwork for future academic growth. Motivating children with regular feedback and structured practice prepares them for different assessment styles ahead.
By building confidence through gentle but firm tutoring for Year 1 to 6 learners, students will approach each new challenge with focus, curiosity and a love of learning that will last well beyond the classroom.
Finding a reliable Year 1–6 tutor is efficient and transparent with us.
Navigating early literacy and numeracy milestones requires more than a generic approach. Our platform offers wide-ranging profiles, verified qualifications and transparent rates that can fit your budget. Whether you opt for online or in-person sessions, support is flexible and focused on key skills.
