ABOUT US & THE ROLE
Padea partners with schools to deliver after-hours, on-campus study programs. In our sessions, students get tutoring in every subject and build study habits, while making life easier for parents.

Keep your students progressing on their goals and work, while managing distractions and behaviour.
Proactively identify understanding gaps and improvement areas, then deliver personalised, engaging tutoring.

Share actionable feedback with your student’s parents each session.
YOUR QUALIFICATIONS
Minimum ATAR ++.00 (or equivalent) or a subject score of at least +0 percent in the subjects you wish to tutor.
Currently enrolled in an undergraduate university degree or recently graduated from secondary school.
Proven track record of tutoring or working with students, with group experience preferred.
Able to commit to at least one, three-hour, on-site shift per week for the duration of the school term.
A valid Working with Children Check (WWWC) or eligibility to obtain one.
Reliable transportation to our partner school campuses (a driver’s licence and vehicle are preferred but not required).
YOUR COMPENSATION
$50 per hour ($150 per three-hour shift), with progression opportunities tied to increased pay.
Complementary, restaurant-catered meals available each shift with a thirty-minute paid dinner break.
