A private tutor in Sabu Raijua is a teacher who mentors one student at a time, whether by visiting the family's home or through online classes, across the six districts of Sabu Raijua Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. This island regency, split off from Kupang Regency in 2008, spans Sabu Island and Raijua Island with Seba at its heart. Local teachers are badly needed because the islands sit far from mainland Timor, leaving few quality tutoring options, even though Sabu children have long been known for their drive to pursue higher education.
