SACE, high school and primary tutoring — in-person across Adelaide or online

For SACE students in Years 11 and 12, the priority is a tutor who knows the SACE Board's Stage 2 marking expectations — the year that contributes directly to the ATAR. High-demand subjects include Mathematical Methods, Specialist Mathematics, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, English and Economics. A tutor with a 99+ ATAR in their Stage 2 subjects, or TRBSA registration with classroom SACE experience, brings exactly that insight.

Adelaide’s prominent private school sector creates a distinct tutoring need not found at the same scale in other cities: scholarship and entry testing preparation for Year 7 and Year 9 entry at schools including St Peter’s College, Prince Alfred College, Scotch College, Wilderness School, Walford Anglican and Pembroke. Many tutors on Learnmate have experience with Adelaide private school entry test formats alongside their SACE and primary school expertise. Tutors offer in-person sessions across Adelaide — including inner suburbs (Unley, Norwood, Prospect, Burnside), the CBD, southern suburbs (Marion, Morphett Vale, Christie Downs), northern suburbs (Salisbury, Modbury, Parafield Gardens, Elizabeth) and the Adelaide Hills (Stirling, Crafers, Hahndorf) — or online for students anywhere in South Australia.

ABOUT US

Why Adelaide Families Choose Learnmate for Private Tutoring

Australia’s leading tutoring marketplace — with deep SACE expertise across Adelaide

Learnmate is Australia’s leading online tutoring marketplace, connecting students with verified private tutors across every subject, year level and curriculum. For Adelaide families, Learnmate provides access to tutors who have sat SACE Stage 2 examinations themselves, understand the SACE Board’s assessment framework and know the specific demands of Adelaide’s most competitive schools. All tutors are verified before listing, and the platform processes payments automatically after each lesson — no cash, no invoicing, no lock-in contracts.

Private one-on-one tutoring consistently outperforms group tutoring centres for SACE students because it targets the specific concept or assessment skill that is limiting a student’s Stage 2 grade — not a fixed programme moving to the next topic before this one is secure. Learnmate makes that level of support accessible from $65/hr, well below the cost of Adelaide tutoring centres, with the flexibility to work in-person or online and no commitment beyond the first session.

RoshnaReviews rating

Kashish is a excellent tutor, as he explains every thing he teaches so you can easily understand it. He also is great at giving out homework for the child to work on throughout the week until their next session. Kashish is also very friendly so my child really enjoys the lessons.

AlexisReviews rating

Casey has been fantastic. She is very approachable, relates well to my daughter, explains things well and my daughter has learned a lot already. She is flexible and understanding when we have had to change appointment times. I would definitely recommend Casey!

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!

AikaReviews rating

Tahlia was an amazing tutor, who was super helpful and had excellent knowledge of the SACE curriculum. I thoroughly enjoyed my weekly sessions and appreciated her positive and encouraging attitude. I highly recommend Tahlia, if you want studying in year 12 to be a fun and beneficial experience.

GlenReviews rating

Sam’s tutoring and helpful guidance has made a huge difference towards my sons learning. He was able to relate very well and made the sessions fun and interesting. We have gone from failing year 11 to achieving high marks in year 12. I could not recommend a better tutor.
