Before you decide
Questions South Australian parents ask
Straight answers for South Australian parents deciding whether tutoring is right for their child.
Deciding on tutoring
How do I know if my child needs a tutor?
Common signs are marks slipping in one subject, avoiding homework, losing confidence, or struggling with the work set this term. A 1-on-1 tutor finds the gaps and works on them using your child's own school work, so the progress shows up in class.
When should my child start tutoring?
Any time in the school year. Starting a term or more before a big assessment, such as NAPLAN in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9, or SACE Stage 2 assessments and exams in Year 12, leaves time to build skills steadily rather than cram.
Choosing a tutor
How do I find a good tutor in South Australia?
Look for a tutor who knows the curriculum for your child's year, has strong results in the subject, holds a Working With Children Check, and suits your child's personality. At Tutero, an account manager matches a tutor from the top 2% of applicants on all four.
Can a tutor help with the SACE?
Yes. SACE tutors help Year 11 and 12 students with school assessments and external exam preparation in Stage 1 and Stage 2 subjects such as Mathematical Methods, Specialist Mathematics, English, Chemistry, Physics and Biology. In Stage 2, 30% of each subject is assessed externally.
Cost and commitment
How much does a tutor cost in South Australia?
Tutoring with Tutero costs from A$65 an hour, the same rate from Reception to Year 12. A qualified teacher is from A$75 an hour. You pay after each lesson, with no upfront fees.
