UNESCO named Ambon a City of Music in 2019, the only one from Indonesia
Ambon City's 2025 minimum wage is Rp 3,185,733, the highest in Maluku Province
Ambon City is divided into five subdistricts that ring Ambon Bay
UNPATTI is the oldest public university in Maluku, established in 1962
SMAN Siwalima is a Garuda Transformasi excellence school, Maluku's sole representative
As a City of Music, Ambon has high demand for vocal, guitar, and choir lessons. Your artistic talent can become an income source of its own.
Arrange your own teaching hours around your activities. Morning at sea or in class, afternoon guiding students; all can fit the rhythm of life in Ambon.
Students come from the subdistrict where you live. From Sirimau and Nusaniwe to Passo, the reach is close with no need to cross between islands.
Your guidance can take Ambon students into SMAN Siwalima or a national university. The knowledge you share becomes a legacy for the basudara generation.
Join a network of Ambon tutors who look after and share with one another. The Pela Gandong spirit shows in the support among fellow tutors.
The Maluku team runs free learning sessions on teaching methods, adapting to the Merdeka Curriculum, and building good communication with students' parents. Each session adds to your toolkit in the classroom.
Just a photo of your ID, your diploma, and a short note about your teaching experience sent to the team. From Poka and Passo to Latuhalat, it can all be handled by phone with no office visit.
The documents you send are reviewed one by one so the data checks out. If you are a UNPATTI student or alumnus, the process usually moves more quickly.
Over a light 15-20 minute video call, we talk through how you teach and what you hope for ahead. There is no formal test here, only a friendly conversation between basudara.
Once your profile is live, we find the nearest students in Sirimau, Nusaniwe, or Passo to match your location, and your first session is ready to begin. Welcome to the Ambon teaching family!
โAs a UNPATTI student, teaching around Poka fits my class schedule perfectly. No need to travel far, since many students come from academic families near campus. The fee is clear from the start, so I feel at ease.โ
โAmbon really is a city of music, so many children want to learn vocals and guitar. Teaching art here feels alive because the kids are talented. I teach in the afternoons at student homes around Talake and Amahusu.โ
โIn Batu Merah, my intention to guide children through reading the Quran walks hand in hand with the income that comes along. Parents in this neighborhood hold deep respect for a Quran teacher. The fee side is calm too, since I can request a withdrawal when I need it without any fuss.โ
โYoung neighborhoods in Passo keep growing, and the kindergarten kids there need a patient reading and counting companion. Running the household while teaching a few hours in the afternoon turns out to suit me well. A team as warm as my own relatives makes me feel right at home doing it.โ
