 FAQs

  • Sessions must run for at least 60 mins. Apart from this, students have the ability to choose the frequency and duration of their tutoring sessions. That said, we recommend scheduling one-hour sessions either weekly or fortnightly to maintain high levels of growth, engagement, and productivity.

  • Our tutors work on their own schedule and based off their own availability. If students would like a session early in the morning or late at night, they are encouraged to ask their tutor for their availability.

  • Sessions can be conducted online via Google Meet or in-person at a library, if convenient for the tutor.

  • All tutors at L2S were ranked in the top 9% in the state for VCE English and hold a valid Working with Children’s Check (WWCC), which can be presented upon request.

  • Every Sunday, students will receive an invoice, which must be settled within 7 days via card (credit, debit, PayPal) or bank transfer. Students are encouraged to contact our admin team, if they’d like their invoices to be sent to a parent or guardian.

    Please note that L2S does not accept cash payments.

  • No, there is no lock-in contract. Students are welcome to stop/pause tutoring at any time. Students may also swap tutors if their learning style does not align with who they are initially assigned.
