About Peakly
We connect Australian students with expert tutors who help them build confidence, master their subjects, and reach their academic potential.
Our Mission
Every student deserves access to a great tutor—not just those who can afford premium tutoring centres or happen to live near a top university. Peakly was founded to close that gap. We use technology to connect students across Australia with qualified, vetted tutors who can deliver personalised, high-quality instruction entirely online.
Our goal is simple: help every student reach their peak academic potential, regardless of where they live or what their budget is. We believe that the right tutor, at the right time, can change a student's entire relationship with learning.
What Makes Peakly Different
There are many tutoring services in Australia. Here is what sets Peakly apart:
- Australian curriculum expertise: Every Peakly tutor understands the Australian Curriculum, VCE, HSC, or the specific state framework your child is studying. We do not use generic, one-size-fits-all content. Our tutors prepare sessions based on the exact syllabus, assessment criteria, and exam formats that your child will face.
- Rigorous tutor vetting: We do not accept every application. Our tutors go through a multi-step screening process that includes academic verification, a teaching demonstration, reference checks, and a current Working with Children Check. Fewer than 20% of applicants are accepted onto the platform.
- Instant matching: When you request a tutor, our system matches you with the best available tutor for your child's subject, level, and learning style—usually within hours, not days.
- 100% free: No fees, no subscriptions, no hidden costs. Every session on Peakly is completely free for students.
- Satisfaction guarantee: If you are not happy after your first session, we will match you with a different tutor at no cost.
Our Values
Results-Focused
We measure success by student outcomes, not session volume. Every tutoring plan is designed around clear, measurable academic goals.
Accessibility
Quality tutoring should not be a privilege. We keep our platform completely free and open to students in every state and territory across Australia.
Quality Over Quantity
We would rather have 50 excellent tutors than 500 mediocre ones. Our vetting process ensures every tutor on the platform meets a high standard.
Communication
Parents deserve to know how their child is progressing. Our tutors provide regular updates and are always available to answer questions.
Who We Help
Peakly serves students at every stage of their education journey:
- Primary school students (Years 1-6): Building strong foundations in literacy and numeracy, NAPLAN preparation, and filling knowledge gaps before they become bigger problems.
- Secondary school students (Years 7-10): Subject-specific support, homework help, and developing study skills that will carry them through to senior years.
- VCE and HSC students (Years 11-12): Intensive exam preparation, SAC and assessment support, and targeted revision for high-stakes subjects.
- Test preparation: Specialised coaching for NAPLAN, selective entry exams, UCAT, IELTS, and other standardised tests.
Our Tutors
Peakly tutors are primarily high-achieving university students and recent graduates who have excelled in the exact subjects and exams they teach. This means they have first-hand, recent experience with the curriculum your child is studying—they know what the exams look like, what markers are looking for, and where students typically get stuck.
All Peakly tutors hold a current Working with Children Check and have been verified for their academic credentials. They receive ongoing support and training from our team to ensure they are delivering the highest quality sessions possible.
