Uni students from Monash, Deakin and Melbourne who did brilliantly in the subject you're doing now. Near you, at half what an agency charges.
You set your rate and pick your students. We handle the boring half — the plan, the report, the payment, the reminders.
Commission starts at 20% and falls to 12% as your hours build. LearnMate's published range is 23–30%.
We pay back your Victorian Working with Children Check in full after your tenth completed lesson.
A diagnostic tells you what to teach. The parent report writes itself from a two-minute wrap-up.

Per subject. Most Melbourne tutors sit between $45 and $70 an hour. You keep 80% from day one.
Turn up with a plan already written. Two minutes at the end and the parent gets a real report.
Straight to your bank every Friday, for lessons you have completed. No chasing cash.
Most tutor directories check nothing. We check, we show it, and we watch the expiry date.
A tutor cannot accept a booking for anyone under 18 until their Victorian Working with Children Check is verified. We monitor the expiry and restrict the profile if it lapses.
Every tutor confirms a university email address with a one-time code, which is what the “Monash student” line on a profile actually means. Identity documents are reviewed by a person before a profile goes live.
Only a completed, paid lesson can be reviewed — scored across eight things, not one star.
We verify and display each tutor's check — we don't claim to have vetted anyone ourselves. You can confirm any check directly with the Victorian register.
We're starting in Melbourne's south-east — Clayton, Glen Waverley, Mount Waverley, Wheelers Hill, Box Hill, Blackburn, Burwood, Balwyn and Camberwell.
Tutors set their own rate. In Melbourne's south-east most sit between $45 and $70 an hour depending on year level and subject. You see the exact price on the profile before you contact anyone.
Any tutor who teaches someone under 18 must hold a current Victorian Working with Children Check. We verify the number, display it, and monitor the expiry. Tutors teaching adults and university students can start before their check comes through.
No. No contracts, no notice periods, no direct debit, no minimum.
Change tutors whenever you like at no cost. Cancel more than 24 hours ahead and you're fully refunded.
Weekly, straight to your bank account, for lessons you have completed. If a family cancels inside 24 hours, half the lesson rate goes to you and we take no commission on it.
