Apply Now10 questions answered
I live on Pantar Island, separated by sea from Kalabahi. Can I still teach?
Yes. We match you with students on the same island so the journey stays short, while children across the strait are served through online classes. Many Pantar tutors blend in-person lessons in their village with online sessions for other students.
What is the earning potential for tutors in Alor?
How much you earn is shaped by the student's school level, the subject, and the number of hours you are able to take on. With the 2025 East Nusa Tenggara minimum wage around IDR 2.3 million and Alor's gentle cost of living, teaching gives decent purchasing power. How busy your schedule gets is entirely your decision.
Can students of Tribuana University or STKIP Muhammadiyah Kalabahi register?
We warmly welcome it. Students and graduates of these two campuses are the mainstay of Alor's tutors, especially from the Mathematics Education and Primary Education programs at STKIP Muhammadiyah. You can take on students around your boarding house or campus while continuing your studies.
Which subjects are most sought after in Alor?
The greatest interest falls on Math and English, followed by Science and early reading, writing, and arithmetic for young children. In coastal areas like Kabola, English conversation classes are popular because of their closeness to the dive tourism of the Pantar Strait.
How and when are tutor fees disbursed in Alor?
The fee for each session is set and agreed before you say yes to a schedule, so the amount is transparent from the very start. Once a session is complete, you simply request a disbursement from the team, and the funds reach your account within at most three working days. Alor tutors often use this flexibility to align their cash flow with the fishing or harvest season.
Do I need a vehicle to reach students between villages in Alor?
To move between villages on mainland Alor Island, a motorbike clearly helps. If you choose to teach only around Kalabahi town, walking or taking local transport is enough. Meanwhile, students on the islands across the strait can be served through online classes without crossing over.
Signal and electricity in my village can be limited. Can I still become a tutor?
Of course. Most Alor tutors choose in-person lessons at the student's home when the network weakens, then move to online once the signal improves. We tailor student placement to your reach and the conditions of your area.
Is knowing a local Alor language an advantage?
It helps a great deal. Alor has many local languages, and being able to greet students in their village tongue makes the learning atmosphere warmer. Parents also feel closer to a tutor who understands local customs.
Is there demand for English for dive tourism?
There is, and it keeps growing. The Pantar Strait draws divers from many countries, so coastal youth want to speak English fluently to guide guests or sell their wares. Conversation tutors have good prospects around Kabola and Alor Barat Laut.
I am a young Alor graduate with no teaching hours yet. Can I still join?
Absolutely. What matters most is a grasp of the material and the sincerity to guide students patiently. Free online training is available to sharpen your teaching technique, including how to manage classes in island schools with bare-bones materials.
