Description

We’re looking for driven and committed VCE Chemistry tutors to join our passionate tutoring team at Contour Education. Take the lead in helping students get the most out of their learning experience, build strong relationships, and make a real impact. Multiple roles are available across our Victorian campuses: Point Cook, Narre Warren, Glen Waverley, Box Hill, and Melbourne CBD.

Who Are We

We empower students and their studies by providing an ecosystem of highly effective tutoring, resources and support. We run weekly small-group tutoring sessions at our in-person campuses, presented by young and experienced tutors that teach in a simple, intuitive and engaging way. We also supplement these sessions with weekly workshops, complimentary 1-on-1 support and a learning portal with a comprehensive suite of resources and practice material to help students master their subjects.

Over 8,000 students and 250+ team members have joined Contour Education since our founding in the beginning of 2020. Our growth is a testament to our dedication in providing ALL our students and parents with a premium learning experience (from 24/7 personal support to on-demand resources) and our commitment to helping them achieve their personal goals, and achieve success in their school assessments and exams. We've been listed three years in a row as one of the Fastest Growing Startups by the Australian Financial Review, and we're continuing to multiply year over year!

It's our vision to reshape education, one student at a time.

Opportunity to Tutor Groups

Have you ever wanted to do group tutoring but never got the time or students to? At Contour, you’ll energise and motivate groups of students instead of tutoring one-on-one, leveraging your expertise to create vibrant, engaging learning environments—without the headache of admin work and student management.

Access to High-Quality Tutoring Material

Tired of spending hours creating resources? At Contour, we’ve done the hard work for you—providing detailed solutions, expertly developed VCE resources, class workbooks, and comprehensive notes. You’ll save time and focus on delivering engaging sessions students love. Plus, your students will have access to a huge bank of high-quality resources to support their learning every step of the way.

We’ve spent thousands of hours creating resources for VCE subjects. All we need now is you—the tutor!

Minimal Admin Work

Leave the paperwork behind! Our dedicated support teams handle scheduling, attendance follow-ups, payments, and enrolments, letting you focus solely on delivering an exceptional learning experience for your students.

Support & Personal Development

You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. Join a supportive and energetic team that’s focused on helping you grow—and helping students succeed every step of the way. You’ll get thorough onboarding, regular check-ins, and in-class feedback to help you improve quickly. And as you gain experience, you can step into senior or leadership roles. We also offer personal support for your career development—like references, mentoring, and full-time job opportunities.

Competitive Compensation

At Contour, we believe tutors should grow with us—so your compensation reflects the impact you make. Contour tutors typically earn $90–$200 per 2-hour class (plus Super) when starting, depending on experience and class size. We also offer performance bonuses that grow as your student outcomes improve. There are clear pathways to senior roles with higher compensation—where tutors can earn beyond $200 per class. Plus, every tutor enjoys fun perks like paid subscriptions to Netflix, Spotify, Apple Music, Uber One, Amazon Prime, and more.
