Rates and Available Hours

Below you will find our tutoring hours and rates for our services. If you are looking for a session time or rate that is not listed here, feel free to get in touch!

Walk-in and Phone Hours

While tutoring is available by appointment only, you can come to our office to make enquiries Monday through Friday from 3 pm to 7 pm.

We are available by phone Monday through Friday from 10 am to 7 pm. If you call outside these hours, you can leave a voicemail or send us a text message and we’ll get back to you the next business day.

Rates

In line with our values to provide access to education support to the community, we try to keep our rates as affordable as we can. You will find our current rates below. Note that weekly bookings permit our lowest rates, and to help make things more affordable for families who book multiple sessions or longer sessions, the cost per week is calculated based on total time booked weekly by the family (not as individual sessions). the overall rate becomes cheaper the more time is booked each week (when dividing the total weekly cost over the number of hours booked weekly).

Academic Tutoring

Service fee – there is an $8 per week resources and services fee for weekly and fortnightly bookings. This fee is charged only once per family during the 10-week NSW public school terms no matter how much time, how many siblings, or what combination of academic, language, or music tutoring you book in. This amount was previously part of our weekly rates, but we have separated it from our hourly rates to help make tutoring more affordable for those families booking longer sessions or booking multiple sessions weekly.

Hourly rates – our hourly rates for weekly or fortnightly bookings are as shown below. Bookings can made in blocks of 30, 45, 60, or 90 minutes.

Hourly rates – our hourly rates for weekly or fortnightly bookings are as shown below. Bookings can made in blocks of 30, 45, 60, or 90 minutes.

School Holiday Tutoring and Programs

Tutoring is optional during the school holidays. You will not be charged unless you make a booking.

We remain open and available for tutoring over the school holiday periods, except for the weeks of Christmas and New Year’s. Tutoring is charged at the above rates but is more affordable as the weekly/fortnightly service fee is waived.

Pricing for our school holiday programs can be found in the description for each program on our School Holiday Programs page.

Fees and Surcharges

We have the following surcharges:

• Weekends – There is a $5 per hour surcharge for weekend bookings.
• Casual bookings – There is a $16 booking fee for casual bookings if the student does not already have a weekly or fortnightly booking. (No weekly or fortnightly service fee is charged for casual bookings.)
• Non-automatic payments – There is a $2 fee for payments which are not made through our automated payment system, including payments by direct deposit, cash, or card.
• Late payments – There is a $4 fee if payment is not made before the session time and an additional $4 for every additional seven days that a payment is late.

We have no other fees or charges other than those listed above. We do not charge an enrolment or term fee.

How to Pay

Payments can be made on a weekly basis. You do not need to pay for a block or term in advance. We use automated card payments handled by Square. These payments are processed on the first day of the week on which tutoring has been booked. We also accept direct deposit, cash, or card, but there is a $2 processing fee for each payment. Avoid this fee by enrolling for automatic payments. For more information about payments, see our FAQ.
