See what our students say
I was doing well in most subjects, but found there were a few subjects I could use a bit of extra help in. After coming to Dymocks Tutoring I feel a lot more confident, especially in Maths. I used to hate integration and calculus, but now it’s working for me!
Simran, Year 12
My grades have improved throughout Year 12. I’ve found that Dymocks Tutoring has really supported me, especially with their resources, notes and access to teachers. Dymocks Tutoring has really helped me become a better learner.
Zoe, Year 12
The environment is very laid-back, so you can focus on what you’re doing and be relaxed while you’re studying. It helps a lot. My tutor for Legal Studies, Mohan, is great. He really helps you understand the concepts and ensures if you have any questions that they are explained.
Justin, Year 11
I went from getting C’s and B’s to A’s in English so Dymocks Tutoring has definitely helped a lot. I really like how they teach to the syllabus. When I go into class, I know that what I’ve learned at Dymocks Tutoring is going to directly correlate to what I’m learning at school.
Sara, Year 12
I’ve seen an improvement in marks in Physics, Chemistry and English since coming to Dymocks Tutoring. The tutors are really helpful, they help with assignments and they give really good feedback. I’m more confident putting my hand up in class.

Meet our tutors
Our tutors are carefully selected for their enthusiasm, energy and communication skills as well as their subject matter expertise. They are typically experienced and qualified professional teachers, but we also find recent HSC high achievers make ideal, relatable mentors for your child.
You can expect a very honest and positive direct relationship with your child’s tutor. They’ll get to the underlying issues that may be holding your child back from succeeding, and work with them personally to build their confidence and extend their capabilities.

FAQs
For Parents

We specialise in small group tutoring which allows us to be an affordable tutoring option whilst also giving you individualised attention to help maximise their marks.

$26.00 per hour for primary students.
$32.00 an hour for high school students.
$37.00 per hour for senior high school students.
Private tutoring starts at $65.00 per hour.
Should I enrol in a small group or private tutoring?
We recommend small group tutoring as our preferred method of tutoring. The benefits of small group tutoring are that it is
• Cost effective
• Allows kids to learn from and engage with other students in a small controlled group environment.
• Builds confidence in answering or asking questions around their peers.
• We recommend private tutoring for students that are at a remedial level or need additional support on a specific topic or subject.

Are there discounts available?
We periodically run promotions that can involve a discount for new students that have not previously been enrolled. For existing students, we offer an automatic enrolment discount of 10%.
My child is advanced, what are my options?
For kids who are advanced, we have an excel stream. Our excel stream classes require approval from the tutor to enter and run at a faster pace, with more extension questions and activities covered. We recommend advanced students enrol in the excel stream classes. Excel classes are available from grades 3 – 10 excluding grades 4 and 5 where excel classes are replaced by Selective Schools preparation classes.
My child is falling behind at school, what are my options?
For kids that need remedial study, we recommend one-to-one private tutoring sessions to help them to catch up with their cohort.
Once a child is more confident in the area they have been falling behind in – they are encouraged to move to small group classes in our success program, which follows the Australian curriculum.
For Students
What type of tutoring is available?
We specialise in small group tutoring which allows us to be an affordable tutoring option whilst also giving you individualised attention to help maximise their marks. For students that need more personalised attention or are struggling to grasp a specific topic we also offer Private Tutoring. You can access a free trial lesson for our group sessions by clicking here.
What type of device or software do I need?
If you are an online student we recommend that you have access to:
A laptop, desktop or iPad are all fine to access your classes – we do not recommend using a mobile device as this will not be a big enough screen to get the most out of your lessons and we use different software during the lessons, so having a larger screen allows students to navigate between systems.
A stable internet connection
If you are a maths or sciences student – it is advisable that you have a touch device and stylus for easy use of online whiteboard and drawing activities including writing equations and workings.
For in hub classes we recommend students bring a device to classes so they can access the in-class quizzes and do our online survey and tutor reviews.
Do you teach my state’s curriculum?
We currently operate in Victoria and NSW, though we teach the Australian curriculum, the way this is taught does vary from state to state. For Grades 3-10 we are able to privately tutor students from states outside of NSW and VIC.
Our content is mapped specifically for the Victorian and NSW variations of the curriculum. We also specialise in HSC and VCE tutoring and have created content that meets state requirements for these exams that focuses specifically on the state-specific texts and requirements.
How do I get started with Dymocks Tutoring?
To start your lesson with Dymocks Tutoring – you can enrol directly into a class online or in hub using our online booking form here OR you can test us 100% obligation-free through our free trial lesson, to make sure we’re the right fit for your child before you enrol.
What is Study Max support and how do I access it?
Study Max support is our one-to-one homework help. Enrolled students are able to book up to an hour a week of help (30 minutes per enrolled subject and 15 minutes for subjects that students do not tutor for at Dymocks Tutoring). Study Max support is booked in 15-minute sessions with our Study Max support tutors.
We recommend booking Study Max support to go through tutoring homework and questions, to get feedback on essays or written responses or to get help with school assignments and assessments.
