Tutornova is an online private tutoring booking platform, connecting high school and university students with world-class educators throughout Australia and globally. We offer two separate memberships: online tutoring lessons and unlimited writing feedback. Subscriptions to each service are sold separately.

Online tutoring with Tutornova is less time consuming and stressful than booking a tutor the traditional way. You don’t have to spend hours searching or being restricted to limited tutors in your local area.

At Tutornova, you get access to our trusted, experienced team of first-class academic tutors, already pre-screened and trained by us. And with the powerful interactive virtual classroom and shared digital whiteboard, it's just like sitting next to a real tutor. Best of all, you get access to the best quality tutors, all from the comfort of your home.

All you have to do is click Book Now, enter your details and within 60 seconds you’re on the way to getting mentored by a world-class tutor.

You'll immediately receive an email to let you know that we received your request. We will then contact the best tutors for your needs and see who is available. If you've mentioned additional flexible times when booking, we will consider these in case we are unable to match your booking at your preferred time.

Once we have found you a suitable tutor, you will receive a second email confirming all booking details including the date and time of your booking.

We’re very careful about the tutors we select to join the Tutornova network. We interview all of our tutors and make sure they hold a clear Working With Children Check and pass our 10 Point Tutor Certification Checklist. We accept only the highest quality tutors with a history of academic excellence and customer satisfaction.

We will match you with the highest quality tutor available at your preferred time. If you have any specific tutor preferences, you can mention it in the comments section when booking and we will do our best to accommodate your request.

Absolutely! We do our best to ensure that you get the same tutor every time. After your first lesson with a Tutornova tutor, you will be given the option to re-book with the same tutor at a regular time slot.

You can make your first booking on our booking form or simply contact us and we can book lessons for you. You can book and manage your lessons by logging into your self-managed Members Account.

Pay securely and automatically online only after your lesson has been completed. Say goodbye to packages and expensive term fees. With flexible, PAYG online payment of lessons, Tutornova eliminates the awkward conversations about money. You can book as many sessions as you like in advance.

PLEASE NOTE: A hold will be placed on your credit card (for authorization) for the amount of your service up to 2 days before the day of your booking. THIS HOLD IS NOT A CHARGE. Charging is completed after your service is rendered and you will receive an invoice via email once this occurs.

You will need a:

– laptop or desktop computer
– webcam
– speakers
– microphone
– headphones (optional, but recommended for best audio quality)
– reliable internet connection (home wifi is best)
– digital drawing pen tablet (optional, but highly recommended for maths or science subjects to draw on our interactive virtual whiteboard)

You can draw on the virtual whiteboard with any input device on your computer that replaces your cursor, such as a digital drawing pen tablet.

For a smooth drawing experience, we recommend the Wacom Intuos digital drawing pen tablet.

You can easily collaborate with your tutor via your Student Dashboard, where you can share Word Documents and edit documents with your tutor in real time using Google Docs. You can upload any documents and files from your computer to share with your tutor.

Tutornova takes the stress out of booking a tutoring lesson and is able to function because of the honour system. Our service agreement actually states that you must not independently hire any past or present Tutornova tutor, regardless of whether you want to use them for a recurring or one-off service. If you enjoy our service, we hope that you will do your part in keeping our eco-system intact and exclusively book through Tutornova for all your tuition needs.

It takes us time to find the right tutor for your needs. Because our tutors reserve your time especially for you, you may cancel or reschedule your booking for free up to 24 hours in advance.

If you cancel or reschedule with less than 24 hour’s notice, you will be charged a 50% cancellation fee. Lessons cancelled on the day will be charged the full lesson fee.

Further, for our recurring weekly or fortnightly plans, there is a minimum commitment of 3 bookings. Lessons are still charged after each individual session, but you will be required to complete 3 bookings before leaving the service.

You can cancel or reschedule by logging into your Members Account or by calling our Support Team on (02) 9758 4217.

We’re confident you’ll love our service, so we offer a lesson 100% happiness guarantee. If you’re not completely satisfied after trying our service, simply let us know within 24 hours of your lesson by emailing support@tutornova.com.au and you can request a full refund. We’ll work to make it right – guaranteed!
