Private tutoring in Bendigo

Tutoring starts from A$65 per hour. There is no sign-up fee and no contract, so nothing is paid to hold a place or to open an account. Each lesson is invoiced once it has been delivered, which means a family only ever pays for hours a tutor has actually taught. Most Bendigo students book one hour a week to begin with, then add a second subject later if it helps. If lessons need to pause, they pause, and the billing stops with them.

Yes. Tutero works with Bendigo students from Foundation right through to Year 12. In the primary years the work is reading, writing and number sense. Through Years 7 to 10 it is the full secondary spread: maths, English, science, humanities and languages. In Years 11 and 12 it is VCE subjects such as English, Mathematical Methods, General Mathematics, Biology, Chemistry and Physics. If the subject a student needs is an uncommon one, say so on the quote form and the match is made around it. There is more detail on the maths tutoring and English tutoring pages.

No. Every Tutero lesson runs online, one student and one tutor, over video with a shared whiteboard, and that is a deliberate choice rather than a compromise. It means a student in Kangaroo Flat, Eaglehawk or Epsom is not restricted to whoever happens to live within driving distance, and the tutor is chosen for the course the student is sitting rather than for a postcode. Work is shared on screen, so the tutor can see the same problem the student is stuck on. Lessons follow the Victorian Curriculum and, in the senior years, the VCE study design for each subject.

Students from schools such as Bendigo South East Secondary College and Weeroona College Bendigo, both of which run Years 7 to 10, come to Tutero, as do students at Bendigo Senior Secondary College, which takes Years 11 and 12. So do students at independent and Catholic schools including Girton Grammar School and Catherine McAuley College. Tutero has no partnership or affiliation with any of them. What the school does decide is the shape of the tutoring: a tutor works from the assessment schedule and the topics that school is covering, not a generic program.

Nothing changes on Tutero's side, which is why the match is one tutor, not a roster. An account manager sets the pairing from the year level, subjects, school and how the student prefers to work, then keeps it. In Bendigo this matters here, because students commonly finish Year 10 at one college and start Year 11 at another. The tutor is the constant across that change: whoever worked through Year 9 algebra with a student knows exactly what the Year 11 course assumes. If a pairing is not working, an account manager reassigns the student without penalty. See VCE tutoring for the senior years.

Use the quote form at the top of this page. It asks who the tutoring is for, the year level and the subjects. An account manager calls within 24 hours to go through the school, the assessment coming up and what the student wants out of it, then proposes a tutor and a weekly time. Lessons run online from home, so a family in Maiden Gully or Huntly gets the same choice of tutor as one in central Bendigo. There is no contract and no sign-up fee, and the first invoice arrives after the first lesson. You can also browse tutoring across Victoria.
