Recent reviews for our Science tutors

Alysha
I was fortunate enough to get to know Maria this year, through receiving Psychology and Biology tutoring from her for my final year of school. She is an insightful, very knowledgable tutor, who delivered the material to suit my level of understanding, ensuring we covered the outline in the current VCE study designs. The Learnmate platform was also very easy to use, helping our tutoring sessions run smoothly!

Cassandra is an excellent teacher, very knowledgeable, resourceful and kind. She helped my daughter to understand concepts in Biology and guided in revision by doing VCE exam questions from the beginning.

We have been trying to search for a maths tutor for our boys for some time, but haven’t quite found the right tutor until we came across Jie through Learnmate. Jie is a very competent, well organised, patient and a promptual person with a very positive attitude. Our boys are now also taking up Science lessons with Jie. We highly recommend Jie.

Shamini helped me through VCE Units 3/4 Physics and Methods. She always ensured I felt comfortable asking any questions and was very adaptable to whether I wanted to go through Physics or Methods work each session. I would highly recommend Shamini.

Chloe
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.

    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!

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.

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.

You can view the minimum requirements we typically look for before approving tutors on our registration page.

Not sure if you meet the minimum requirements or worried you don't have enough experience? Tutors and coaches at all stages of their careers use Learnmate. Whether that's a 18 year old looking for their first student after finishing school or a qualified teacher of 20 years. We recommend applying regardless. 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. That said, you should always review a tutor or coach's profile and ensure they meet your requirements before proceeding to lessons.

Generally, tutors must have:

  • experience teaching

  • a relevant qualification or experience

  • can demonstrate they have mastered a skill or domain, or

  • personally excelled at the subjects they teach.

Additionally, all tutors and coaches are required to maintain a current Working with Children Check to work with students under the age of 18 in Australia. Please ensure you ask to see and verify your tutor's Working with Children Check prior to engaging any tutor for students under the age of 18.

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.

To have lessons with a tutor, users need to join Learnmate and have a valid credit or debit card linked to the account. You will be prompted on sign-up to add connect a credit card to your account. As per our Terms & Conditions, cash payment and direct transfers are not accepted.

Automated payments. 

Payment will be automatically processed from the credit or debit card linked to your account 24 hours after each lesson.

Privacy & Security

Learnmate uses Stripe, one of the most trusted payment providers, to process and securely and privately store payment information. Learnmate does not store or have any visibility over your payment information.

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.
