Find a tutor who understands your child’s learning needs

When looking for a private tutor in Bali, start with one example of what your child finds difficult. Is reading slow, is homework taking the whole evening, or does a confident student freeze during tests? A recent piece of work and your child’s own explanation are more useful than a broad request to improve everything.

Ask how a proposed tutor would approach that difficulty, what experience they have with the age group, and how they will communicate with you. Review the individual profile and ask which checks have been completed. A good match also needs a realistic time slot, a comfortable teaching language and an approach your child can engage with.

Bring the school curriculum into the tutoring plan

Two children in the same year group can be working towards different expectations. Share the school, subject, curriculum and current topic before matching. For an exam course, include the awarding body, syllabus code, examination year and level where applicable. This helps the tutor use the right terminology and practise the tasks your child will actually encounter.

For younger learners, bring a reading book, spelling list or recent maths task. For secondary students, a marked assignment can reveal whether the main obstacle is subject knowledge, interpreting a question or explaining an answer. Start with a manageable goal instead of covering every subject at once. Subject-specific and curriculum-specific support can then be planned together.

Plan the weekly commitment before booking

An hourly rate is one part of a tutoring budget. Ask for the proposed session length, frequency, travel arrangements and inclusions in writing. Share your available days and budget so lessons fit around school, family time and activities. We confirm the appropriate service and rate in your quote before booking.

When an exam is approaching, identify the priority topics, time remaining and practice your child can realistically manage. Agree on a review date before booking a large block of lessons. If the workload becomes tiring or school priorities change, your coordinator can help adjust the plan.

Make home, villa or online lessons work for your family

For lessons at home or in a villa, share the exact area and your preferred time window. Travel feasibility depends on the address and schedule, not just the distance on a map. Your written quote confirms the location, travel inclusion and any additional travel cost. Tell us if you will move accommodation during the placement so the arrangements can be checked again.

Choose a quiet, well-lit table with materials ready and agree parent or carer availability before the lesson. Online lessons need a stable connection, a suitable screen and a way to share schoolwork. The choice should reflect your child’s age, attention and learning task as well as convenience. If you are unsure which format fits, describe the practical constraints when you enquire.

Know what to prepare and what progress to look for

Prepare a small selection of recent work, any teacher feedback and one or two goals for the first session. Include something your child can already do comfortably, not only the hardest task. Let the tutor know about relevant learning needs and strategies that already help. You do not need to turn the introduction into another test.

The written plan and session notes give you a basis for reviewing the placement. Look for specific changes: explaining a method without prompting, correcting a familiar mistake, reading a passage with more understanding or starting a task more independently. Discuss examples of work and your child’s experience together. Grades alone cannot describe every change, and no tutor can promise a particular result.

Keep learning connected when your family moves

Families arriving in Bali may need support between schools, help with a new curriculum or subject teaching alongside a parent-led homeschool programme. Share your expected length of stay, previous school programme and next likely destination. These details help us plan focused catch-up lessons or a more regular teaching schedule.

Keep recent reports, completed work and a record of topics covered together. For homeschooling, agree which subjects you or your educational provider will oversee, what the tutor will teach and how progress will be recorded. Private tutoring does not provide school enrolment or an accredited qualification. Confirm any examination and certification requirements with the relevant provider.

Find support by subject, curriculum or area

Start with your child’s subject, curriculum or learning needs. Explore the support available, then tell us about your school, year group and location so we can discuss a suitable tutor.

Tutoring for international and local families

We support children aged 4 to 17, from the early years of school through IB Diploma and A-Level study. Families come to us for help with international curricula, Kurikulum Merdeka and parent-led homeschooling.

A familiar tutor and a clear routine can make learning more manageable, especially after a move or a change of curriculum. We agree on practical goals with you, build lessons around your child’s needs and keep you informed about their progress.

Our International Curricula & Specialist Support

We support the International Baccalaureate (IB) across its three school stages, Cambridge IGCSE (the International General Certificate of Secondary Education) and A-Level, as well as UK, US and Australian programmes. Other curricula, including French, German, Montessori and national-plus programmes, are available on request, subject to tutor availability.

Your child’s tutor follows the topics, terminology and assessment requirements of their school programme. Lessons reinforce classroom learning and give your child time to work through areas that need more attention.

Curriculum	Stages and typical needs
IB	PYP, MYP and Diploma; subject gaps, coursework calendars, exam technique
Cambridge IGCSE	Core and Extended; syllabus coverage, past papers, command terms
A-Level	Subject teaching, timed practice and feedback on marked papers
UK, US and Australian	Primary and secondary programmes, mapped to your school’s syllabus
Homeschool and worldschool	Structured programmes planned with parents each term
Kurikulum Merdeka	On request, subject to tutor availability

Specialist support

Our learning-support tutors work with children who have special educational needs (SEN), including ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia and autism. They teach study strategies, structure and confidence.

Where a school agrees, we also provide shadow teachers: educators who support one child inside the classroom during the school day.

Note: We are tutors, not clinicians: we do not diagnose or treat, and tutoring never replaces clinical assessment or therapy.

How it works: three steps

Discovery: A complimentary 30-minute WhatsApp call to discuss your child’s school, curriculum, learning needs and interests. We also talk about the teaching approach and weekly schedule that would suit your family.
The match: We summarise your requirements and propose a tutor with suitable subject knowledge, curriculum experience and availability. After the discovery call, we confirm when you can expect a written profile, which you review before the first session.
Progress: You receive a written plan, a short note after every session and a fuller review every four weeks. These updates explain what was covered, how your child responded and what to practise next. If the approach needs to change, your coordinator helps adjust the plan or tutor.

Example families

The three sketches below are illustrative examples, not client accounts.

A Year 6 student in Ubud is moving from a US-pattern school to Cambridge Lower Secondary. Her tutor uses recent schoolwork to identify differences in maths and English, then plans summer lessons around the topics she needs for Year 7.

A Year 12 IB Diploma student in Canggu is balancing Higher Level subjects with an extended essay deadline. Weekly tutoring provides subject practice and a manageable study schedule, while the student remains responsible for all assessed work.

A homeschooled Year 3 child in Sanur meets his tutor three mornings a week for a structured programme of reading, writing and number, planned with his parents each term.
