If you are looking for a online tutoring tutor in Tarneit, here is exactly what we do, what it costs and how to start. RHZ Tutoring is a small, local centre in Truganina; we are not a franchise and every tutor is local, works with a valid Working with Children Check and reports to you after every session.

How we tutor Online Tutoring (Prep–Year 12)

Online tutoring is not a fallback at RHZ; it is how a large share of our families choose to learn, especially those who are more than fifteen minutes from our Truganina centre or who are juggling several children's activities. It runs live over video with the same tutors who teach in the centre, at the same prices, with the same free Skills Check at the start and the same plain-English progress note after every session.

A good online session looks different from a video call. The tutor and student share a digital whiteboard so working is visible to both, the tutor can see the student write in real time (a phone or document camera pointed at the page works well for maths), and materials are sent in advance so there is no scrambling. For English, the student writes in a shared document and the tutor marks it live. For VCE sciences and maths, worked solutions and calculator screens are shared directly.

Online suits some students better than in person. Students who are shy in a room often participate more from home. Senior students save the travel time and use it for study. Families with a child in Year 3 and another in Year 10 can run both sessions back-to-back without a second trip. And for VCE subjects with few students at a school, like Specialist Maths or Physics, online lets us match the student to the best tutor rather than the nearest.

It does not suit everyone. Very young students (Prep to Year 1) usually do better in person, where the tutor can hear them read and handle counters and cards. Students who are easily distracted at home need a quiet space and a parent nearby for the first few sessions. We will tell you honestly which format we recommend after the Skills Check, and many families mix the two: online during the week, in person before exams.

Practically, all a student needs is a laptop or tablet with a camera, a stable internet connection and a quiet spot. We send a link before each session, keep a record of what was covered, and the tutor can share the session's working with you afterwards. Small-group online sessions are capped at four so every student gets attention.

Online Tutoring tutoring for Tarneit families

Tarneit is one of the youngest suburbs in Victoria by median age, with a large share of families who moved here for space and schooling. Many of our Tarneit students attend the newer P-9 colleges and then move to Tarneit Senior College for VCE, so the transition years (Year 6 to 7, and Year 9 to 10) come up often in our consultations.

From Tarneit it is about 5 minutes to 17/47 Apex Drive, Truganina VIC 3029, straight down Leakes Road. Every subject is also available online with the same tutor, and many Tarneit families mix in-person and online across the week.

Schools our Tarneit students come from

We tutor Online Tutoring students from Tarneit P-9 College, Tarneit Senior College, Tarneit Rise Primary School and Davis Creek Primary School and other local schools, so our tutors know the pace and the assessment styles used in Tarneit.

Families from Truganina, Wyndham Vale, Hoppers Crossing and Werribee use the same sessions, and small groups are formed by level, not by suburb. See also our general tutoring page for Tarneit.

How it works

1
Free Skills Check. Start with the free Skills Check: a short online diagnostic, done at home, that shows topic by topic where your child sits against their year level.
2
Free consultation. A tutor calls you for a free consultation, walks through the result and recommends a plan: 1:1 or small group, in person or online. No card, no lock-in.
3
Targeted sessions. Your child is matched with a Online Tutoring tutor and sessions start, at the Truganina centre or online. After each session you receive a short note on what was covered and what is next.

Small-group sessions (three to five students of a similar level) are from $25 an hour. One-to-one sessions are $35 to $45 an hour depending on year level, with VCE at the top of that range. Plans are monthly, you choose how many sessions a week, and you can cancel any time. The Skills Check and the consultation are free. Online and in-person sessions cost the same.
