Scholarship exam prep
Tutoring for private school scholarship exams.
Year 7 and Year 9 scholarship exams open doors to Melbourne's top private schools - and a meaningful fee reduction for the next six years. Tuterly connects families with tutors who've prepared students for the EduTest, the ACER scholarship tests, and the individual-school entry exams that many schools run alongside.
Test formats we prepare for
EduTest, ACER, and individual-school exams.
EduTest
Used by Camberwell Grammar, Carey Baptist, Wesley, Caulfield Grammar, MLC, and many others. Five sections: reading, mathematics, written expression, verbal reasoning, numerical reasoning.
ACER Scholarship Tests
Used by Scotch College, Trinity Grammar, Genazzano, Loreto Mandeville Hall, Xavier, and Haileybury. Three papers: written expression, humanities (comprehension and interpretation), mathematics.
Individual school entry exams
Several schools run their own entry process in addition to the standard tests, with their own essay prompts and maths problem sets. Worth specifically practising for if you've shortlisted a school.
Schools families ask us about
Melbourne private schools we prepare students for.
Most Melbourne independent schools accept either EduTest or ACER results - sometimes both - for scholarships and entry. The tutoring approach is shaped by which test the school uses and by the school's own essay or interview round, if it runs one.

The Tuterly method
How Tuterly is different from a regular tutoring service.
Most tutoring services take a fee, book you a tutor, and leave you in the dark about everything else. Tuterly is built around the four things parents actually want from tutoring - visibility, progress, follow-through, and a fair price.
A report after every session
Most agencies hand parents a generic invoice and a vague "went well". Tuterly tutors submit structured notes and the platform turns them into a session report covering what was taught, how your child went, and what to focus on next - every single lesson.
Progress you can actually see
Each topic your child works on is rated for confidence and tracked over time. After a few sessions you can see, on a single page, which areas have moved and which still need work - instead of guessing whether the tutoring is doing anything.
Practice questions, automatically
Tuterly generates worksheets on the exact topics your tutor covered, so the learning doesn't stop when the session ends. Worked solutions included - your child can attempt the questions, check answers, and bring anything they got stuck on to the next session.
Sample report
A sample scholarship session report.
A real example of what you'll receive after every prep session. Tutors are trained to use the platform so progress, weak spots, and what to practise next are visible after every lesson - not just at the end of term.
