We have fantastic opportunities for driven and committed VCE Biology Tutors to join our passionate Tutoring Team in preparation for 2025! Be the leader who develops and nurtures relationships with our students and parents, and helps them derive maximum benefit and satisfaction from our offerings at Contour Education!
Who Are We We empower students and their studies by providing highly engaging small-group tutoring designed to prepare them for school assessments and final exams. Our sessions are presented by experienced but young tutors who can teach the study design in a simple and intuitive yet engaging way.
Over 5,000 students and 100 team members have joined our tutoring services since our founding in 2020. Our growth is a testament to our dedication to providing ALL our students and parents with a high-quality tutoring experience (from 24/7 personal support to on-demand resources) and our commitment to helping them achieve their goals. We were listed as the 17th Fastest Growing Startup by the Australian Financial Review in 2022 and ranked again for both 2023 and 2024, plus we're continuing to multiply year over year!
It's our vision to reshape education, starting with tutoring.
Opportunity to Tutor GroupsHave you ever wanted to do group tutoring but never got the time or students to? Maybe you've been doing one-on-one tutoring so far, and now you want to explore group tutoring? As a VCE tutor at Contour, rather than tutoring one student at a time, you can now motivate groups of students with your knowledge and experience without the hassle of more admin work and finding students.
Access to High-Quality Tutoring MaterialYou've probably spent hundreds of unpaid hours making tutoring resources for your students. We know it can be an extremely time-consuming process, and arguably one of the more boring and tedious parts of being a tutor. But that's where we come in! We've spent thousands of hours creating resources and detailed notes for VCE subjects. All we need now is you—the tutor!
All you have to do is prepare for your tutoring session by reading over the class workbooks beforehand, and provide an excellent tutoring experience to your students :)
Competitive Pay and CompensationWe pride ourselves on compensating and rewarding our tutors for their hard work. The starting rate ranges from $90 to $160 per 2-hour class (exc. Super) depending on the size of the classes you take. If you're already a veteran tutor, then apply for our senior tutor role and the rates can only get higher as you pick up more classes, show dedication to Contour, and contribute to the success of your students!
We've also introduced a new compensation model since 2024 where you'll also share part of the revenue generated by your classes. We want you to feel rewarded for introducing students to Contour and doing a great job at making them happy, so if Contour grows, you'll grow with it!
In some circumstances, if you already have private students but want to transfer them over to Contour, we can potentially even provide payouts so you can move all your tutoring work to us. Win-win! Minimal Admin WorkThere is almost no requirement for admin work. All you have to do is take simple attendance, manage student emails, and address student questions promptly outside of class via social media/text/email. Our support teams organise class days and times, following up on missed attendance, managing payments and enrolments, so you can just focus on the student and tutoring.
Support & Personal DevelopmentWorking in a collaborative environment and an energetic team can be a fantastic opportunity to hone your skills and learn so much along the way! When you work with us, you'll also have the chance to learn from tutors who have spent thousands of hours tutoring and have garnered years of experience, perfecting their craft.
You'll be trained upon joining and we'll provide you with personal feedback as you settle in. You'll also be engaged with the rest of the team through routine catch-ups and peer-review sessions, and over time you'll receive further perks, pay rises, classes and work opportunities. We'll also be there to support you through any personal ventures such as rent applications and job references!
