Job Title: HSC Tutor - English, Maths, Sciences, Business, Economics & Legal Studies (Subcontractor) - Sydney
About Acumen HSC
Acumen HSC is a Sydney-based HSC tutoring business. We work with students across Years 11 and 12, running one-on-one and small group sessions (capped at 4 students) focused on exam technique, strong written responses, and the specific demands of each HSC syllabus. Lessons run online via Zoom and in person depending on the student.
Subjects We Tutor
* English (Standard, Advanced, Extension 1, Extension 2)
* Mathematics (Standard, Advanced, Extension 1, Extension 2)
* Business Studies
* Economics
* Biology
* Chemistry
* Physics
* Legal Studies
You don't need to cover all of these. We match you to students in the subject(s) you achieved a Band 6 (or E4) in.
About the Role
We're looking for tutors to join our team on a subcontractor basis. You'll be matched with students based on your subject(s), availability, and fit, with the expectation of a consistent weekly slot per student for at least 2 full terms, ideally through to their HSC. Most of our students are working toward specific trial or final exams, so sessions are structured around live syllabus walkthroughs and timed practice: building strong short-answer and extended responses, working through past paper questions, and topic mastery across the modules of your course.
You'll teach with Acumen's resources, including Band 6 topic notes, indexed past paper banks, and mock exams, so you're not building materials from scratch.
What You'll Do
* Deliver weekly one-on-one and small group (max 4) tutoring sessions in your HSC subject(s)
* Prepare students for school assessments, trials, and the HSC exam
* Give feedback on practice responses, essays, and past paper questions
* Answer student questions between lessons (we target a 24-hour response time)
* Communicate with Acumen HSC regarding student progress and scheduling
* Maintain the same time slot with your student(s) on a recurring basis
What We're Looking For
* Band 6 result in the HSC course(s) you want to tutor (E4 for Extension courses). You must have sat that HSC exam yourself
* Currently studying or holding a university degree, ideally in a field related to your subject(s)
* Strong communication skills, particularly around structuring short-response and extended-response answers, and explaining concepts and worked solutions clearly
* Reliable and able to commit to a fixed weekly slot for at least a full term
* Working With Children Check (or willingness to obtain one)
* Comfortable operating as a subcontractor with your own ABN (or willing to set one up)
Pay
$40-$45 per hour depending on experience; paid fortnightly.
