Our most frequently asked questions about Apex Tuition Australia

To start tutoring with Apex, please fill out this form. One of our Operations Managers will receive and process it. They will get all the necessary details from you and then begin the process of finding the perfect tutor for you.

Tutoring can happen anywhere based on your individual needs. We have tutors that can travel to your home or a nearby meeting spot. Alternatively, if you prefer or if we have no tutors in the area, we can arrange online tutoring. All tutors are trained to use online tools to maintain tutoring quality.

Currently, we are providing tutoring services in Melbourne and Sydney.

We recommend that tutoring occurs once a week. This allows the tutor and the student to get to know each other well and form a bond. However, the frequency of tutoring is completely up to you. If you would prefer to have multiple sessions a week or just need a tutor once a month, that can also be arranged.

Private tutoring is extremely effective for all types of students. The major benefit of private tutoring is the personalised, one-on-one support. Often in schools, a teacher has to teach 20+ students at once, as a result, if you miss something or fall behind it can be tough to catch up. With a private tutor, students can learn at their own pace, take time to explore new topics and ask as many questions as they want.

Whether you are a top achiever striving for the best marks or a student who is just looking to keep up, private tutoring with Apex Tuition Australia provides an intimate learning environment that builds confidence, promotes curiosity and improves grades.

At Apex Tuition Australia, the cost of tutoring depends on the student's age and preference of location. There are four different prices:

• $72 per hour for Year 11 & 12 online tutoring

Most of our tutors are recently graduated high school students who finished in the top 3% of their subjects with a median ATAR of 99.00. Many of them have gone on to further study the subjects they tutor at university. All our tutors are passionate educators and pride themselves on their knowledge in their chosen subjects. To become a tutor with Apex, all tutors go through a rigorous application and interview process as well supply us with a valid Working With Children's Check.

Before you begin tutoring, you will be asked to do two things:

1. Register to Teachworks - our tutoring management software where you can view all past sessions, upcoming sessions and your invoices/payments
2. Set up a direct debit with Stripe

If you do not want to set up a direct debit, please alert us and our Finance team will provide alternatives.

Stopping tutoring is super easy. There are no lock-in contracts or extra fees so you can stop whenever you would like. If you do decide to stop, please let us know so that we can update our records.

Of course! Sometimes, the learning styles or the personalities of the tutor and the student do not match. In these instances, we will find you a replacement tutor right away.

Yes, all of our tutors are familiar with the current curriculum. We recognise how important it is that your tutor is an expert in the curriculum they are teaching.

We will always match:

• VCE students with tutors who completed the VCE
• HSC students with tutors who completed the HSC
• IB students with tutors who completed the IB

For younger year levels, we will endeavour to find a tutor who has completed the same course but this is less vital.

At Apex Tuition Australia, we offer a first session satisfaction guarantee! This means if you are not happy with your first session, we will give you a 100% refund and find you another tutor. For full details on the first sessions satisfaction guarantee, you can read out terms and conditions here.
