Join the Erudite Team
Great pay, flexible hours and a community that you belong to. Put your knowledge and experience to use by teaching Australia’s next generation of leaders.

Academic Tutor
Erudite refers to an individual who has both deep and broad familiarity with general subjects and knowledgeable as a virtue of study and extensive reading.
We recognise that you’ve put time and effort into cultivating your skills, so why not share that knowledge with others?
Erudite Tuition is more than just a tutoring agency, it’s a community of like-minded individuals putting their front-foot forward and sharing their knowledge through tutoring.
We’ve provided one-on-one tutoring (online and home) to K-12 students since 2018. We stand out from the competition with our focus on making lessons interactive, fun and personalised for each and every single student. This means that our tutors stand out from the crowd themselves, being role models, leaders and high achievers that strive to do the best they can for their students and ultimately show others what they’re truly capable of. With great benefits and opportunities working with us, what’s stopping you?
Why not take this chance to work one-on-one with students that need your knowledge?
Flexible Schedule
You choose your hours!
Whether you're teaching online or in-person, you're free to change your hours based on your schedule. Just make sure to give your students appropriate warning when you do decide to cancel classes!
Skip the Admin
You take care of the tutoring, we'll take care of the rest!
Academic tutors get access to an account created on our platform which they use to see available student opportunities, upcoming lessons, manage payments and lesson details. Never worry about missing a thing again!
Competitive Rates
We pay our tutors starting rates of $40 (in-home) and $30 (online lessons) per hour which can increase to an extra $10 on top per hour, paid into your account on a weekly basis.
This is a great way to make some money on the side while delivering great education to struggling students.
Resources and Support
Whether you lack the experience, skills or resources, Erudite has your back.
All tutors gain access to training packages, resources and ongoing support, with a dedicated tutor manager as your first point of contact. You'll never be left in the dark again!

Mentoring Skills
At Erudite Tuition, we view teaching as so much more than just the marks.
Our tutors are all natural leaders who are able to motivate and inspire their students to do better. They are the kind of people that students will naturally want to get closer with and become, creating a goal to strive towards over their weekly lessons.
Have a question?
Check out some of our most common questions below about the role!
Where do my lessons take place?
Depending on your main preference of teaching, this will either be online or at a student’s home.
For face-to-face, most of the time you’ll be at the student’s house with some exceptions like libraries etc. We try and get you students near you and you always have the right to accept or decline students.
With Online Lessons, we’ll organise a Lessonspace classroom for both you and the student. When it’s time to teach, simply click on the link provided in the email or by logging onto the dashboard to open the class!

I completed school internationally, can I apply?
Generally speaking, we do not accept tutors who have not completed schooling in Australia to apply as they are not very familiar with the teaching curriculum and standards applied.
However, this is not a definitive role and we’re always looking for energetic and motivated tutors.
Please keep in mind that you will most likely need to be an Australian Citizen.

How long do I have to work?
We expect a 6 month commitment after you have accepted the offer and signed the tutor agreement.
During this time, we will try to provide you with a small number of students (1-2) so we can slowly monitor your performance and provide feedback.
That being said, you’re free to choose your hours and decline any students that you feel that you are not suitable for.

I've never tutored before, can I apply?
That’s no problem at all!
Even if you’ve never tutored formally before, any experiences will be useful for tutoring. Things like teaching your younger siblings, helping peers with homework etc. We recognise that not everyone would have formal experience of tutoring and because of that, we offer specialised training for tutors before they take on their first student if they’re not confident.
You’ll also have access to an optional session with one of our trainers if you feel you’re not up to the task.

Can I choose the subjects I tutor?
Absolutely!
You have complete flexibility in choosing whatever subjects you’re comfortable with and would want to tutor at any given time.
Do note for that every subject you tutor in, you must have received a Band 6 in that subject or for subjects such as Selective Test Tutoring, had some exposure to the teaching skills of the test.
