A private tutor in Nunukan is a learning companion who sits at one table with a single student, whether in a family's living room on Nunukan Island or through a screen for those living on Sebatik and the Krayan highlands. Nunukan's position right beside Tawau, Malaysia, gives the demand for tutoring here a character of its own: from the children of seaweed farmers to children of migrants who have just returned and must catch up with schooling in Indonesia.
Pick the subject that matches your expertise, then apply through the online form. The biggest demand sits at the elementary and junior-high levels.
We need tutors across all of Nunukan Regency. Choose the area closest to where you live.

First-hand experiences from tutors who joined in Nunukan before you.
“The appetite for learning to read the Quran here never fades. I usually sit with the children once they are home from school, and parents deeply value a tutor who comes regularly. There is a quiet joy in walking them through the hijaiyah letters one by one.”
Khadijah P.
Quran Reading Tutor
“While studying at Nunukan State Polytechnic, I fill my afternoons with teaching. Campus and the students' homes are close, so no time is lost on the road, and the fee is settled before I even begin. The moment I look forward to most is when a student who once flinched at numbers slowly finds the nerve to pick up a pen.”
Aji W.
Math Tutor
“Many families on Sebatik deal with Tawau often, so the children are eager to learn English. I love teaching simple conversation they can use right away. Balancing teaching with household tasks feels flexible too.”
Selva A.

“There is a warmth every time I watch a kindergartener piece together their first word. I arrange my teaching hours around the rhythm of home life, so I stay productive while remaining close to my own children.”
Melita P.
Early Literacy Tutor
“Children around the Sei Menggaris palm estates are keen to learn computers. Sometimes I run online classes for those living farther out. Seeing them type fluently and handle basic apps makes this work feel worthwhile.”
