Need a Tutor™ is an online tutoring platform connecting teachers and tutors with students through real time, live video and audio proprietary technology. We provide educational support for Indigenous, remote and under-resourced individuals.
There is huge inequity in availability for effective learning support programs for our Indigenous, remote and under-resourced individuals and students, and a plethora of online tutoring platforms targeted at the privileged and resourced.
We are proud of our Social Impact Tutoring and Employment programs.
Aimed exclusively at strengthening the learning capacity of each individual through connectedness and by harnessing the power of technology, we created our proprietary collaborative online learning environment in 2017.
We have an incredible network of dedicated, qualified tutors and teachers and through our valuable social sector partnerships we do our utmost to access educationally vulnerable individuals, Indigenous communities and any child unable to access learning support.
If you have a need or can assist in any way, we would love to hear from you.
The Need a Tutor™ platform development and launch in 2017 was 100% funded by our Founders. We are now supported by generous Charities, Foundations, CSR (Corporate Social Responsibility) and equity funding.
We receive no government assistance.
We know that learning changes lives and we are determined to remove barriers preventing under-resourced students from accessing quality educational support.
Proudly sustainable and eco friendly we produce no waste, negligible carbon emissions and no environmental footprint.
* All profits from Need a Tutor™ are redirected into subsidising Indigenous and rural education in Australia and providing free tutoring to at-risk girls in remote Cambodia.
