🇦🇺 Online in every state and territory👩‍🏫 Australian-Curriculum-trained tutors, valid WWCC⭐ 5.0 · 34 Google reviews

Prep to Year 10 maths, English and science are taught to the same Australian Curriculum in every state, and NAPLAN is the same national test, so a good tutor in Melbourne is a good tutor for a child in Perth, Cairns or Hobart. RHZ Tutoring runs live online sessions with the same tutor every week, starts every student with a free online Skills Check (Prep to Year 12, 5,900 questions, same-day topic report), and prices small groups from $25 an hour with no interstate surcharge. Choose your city below for session times in your state, the senior certificate and selective-testing context, and the questions parents there ask.

What is the same everywhere, and what is not

The same: the Australian Curriculum (version 9) for Prep to Year 10, which every state's syllabus is built on; NAPLAN in Years 3, 5, 7 and 9; and the free Skills Check, which works from anywhere and shows topic by topic where a child sits against their year level. Our tutors plan from that curriculum, follow the school's current unit, and report to you after every session.

What differs is Years 11 and 12. We tutor the VCE fully, subject by subject, to the current VCAA study designs. For the HSC, QCE, WACE, SACE (including the NTCET), TCE and the ACT Senior Secondary Certificate we support the maths, English and science skills and the study technique a senior student needs, but we do not claim state-syllabus or school-assessment expertise, and each city page says so plainly. Selective and scholarship testing also differs by state (the NSW selective and OC tests, WA's GATE, SA's IGNITE, the Queensland Academies, Victoria's selective-entry exam) and each page covers what applies.

Frequently asked questions

Which parts of Australia do you tutor students in?

All of them. The cities on this page are the ones we see most, from Sydney and Brisbane to Cairns, Darwin and Mildura, but online sessions work anywhere with a reliable connection. If your town is not listed, the sessions run exactly the same way; the nearest city page will tell you the session times for your state.

Is your tutoring aligned to my state's curriculum?

For Prep to Year 10, yes. Every state's maths, English and science syllabus is built on the Australian Curriculum version 9, so the content and sequence our tutors teach is the content your child's school teaches. Years 11 and 12 differ by state: we tutor the VCE fully, and for the HSC, QCE, WACE, SACE, TCE and ACT Senior Secondary Certificate we support the underlying skills and study technique without claiming state-syllabus or school-assessment expertise.

How do you handle time zones?

We book in your local time and confirm the Melbourne equivalent in writing. New South Wales, the ACT, Tasmania and Victoria share Melbourne's clock all year; Queensland is the same in winter and an hour behind in summer; South Australia is half an hour behind; the Northern Territory is half an hour behind in winter and an hour and a half in summer; Western Australia is two hours behind in winter and three in summer. Each city page shows sample after-school slots.

Is NAPLAN the same in every state?

Yes. NAPLAN is set nationally and sat online in the same March window by every Year 3, 5, 7 and 9 student, so our NAPLAN preparation is the same preparation wherever you live. The free Skills Check is the diagnostic we build it from.

What does it cost and is there an interstate surcharge?

Small online groups from $25 an hour and one-to-one $35 to $45 an hour depending on year level, identical to our Melbourne prices, with monthly plans and no lock-in. There is no interstate surcharge. The Skills Check and the consultation are free.

Are your tutors checked?

Every tutor holds a current Victorian Working with Children Check, verified before they teach, and parents can sit in on any online session.
