“I teach mathematics to junior and senior high students in Wanci after my online classes. The fee per session is clear from the start, so I can focus on helping the children understand while my pay stays clear.”
Wa Ode Sarni
Math Tutor
EduPoint is opening private-tutor positions in Wakatobi for elementary, junior high, and senior high, especially mathematics, English, and science, across Wangi-Wangi, Kaledupa, Tomia, and Binongko. You need only be an active university student or hold at least a high-school diploma with real command of the material. The per-session fee is agreed clearly before you start, and you set the teaching schedule around your daily activities. In-person sessions close to home are available, and online sessions let you reach students on other islands. Applications are submitted at no cost through the online form, and the process is short.

A private tutor in Wakatobi guides students through their studies, either in person at home or online, across Wakatobi Regency in Southeast Sulawesi. Wakatobi is made up of four main islands whose names merge into one word: Wangi-Wangi, Kaledupa, Tomia, and Binongko, with Wangi-Wangi serving as the regency capital. As a Wakatobi tutor, you help children in your own community master school subjects and exam preparation, with a per-session fee agreed at the outset.
Choose the subject you command, then apply through the online form. Demand is highest in mathematics and English.
We are opening positions on all four islands. Pick the area that matches the island where you live; online sessions are available to reach students between islands.

Answers to what prospective tutors in Wakatobi ask most often.
Apply NowFor in-person teaching, you need to reside on one of the Wakatobi islands such as Wangi-Wangi, Kaledupa, Tomia, or Binongko, because sessions take place at the student's home. If you are from Wakatobi but currently studying in Kendari or Baubau, you can still join for online sessions and take in-person classes when you return home. Active students from these islands are exactly who we hope will apply.
The fee is calculated per session and set before the first meeting, adjusted to the student's level and the subject. Senior-high levels and UTBK preparation classes are valued higher than elementary. Because the figure is agreed upfront with no hidden deductions, you can work out your own income from the number of sessions you take each week.
Mathematics and English hold the highest demand, followed by integrated science for elementary and junior-high students. English draws interest because many families near tourism areas want their children accustomed to a foreign language. For young children, early-literacy and Quran lessons are also regularly sought by parents guiding their kids from an early age.
Yes, through online sessions. A tutor living in Wangi-Wangi can guide students in Tomia, Kaledupa, or Binongko without moving between islands. You simply choose online sessions when you apply, and the team matches you with students who need that subject. In-person sessions remain prioritised for students on the same island as you.
Yes. This vacancy is open to those with at least a high-school diploma who genuinely command the material they will teach, especially for elementary and junior-high levels. What we value most is your ability to explain lessons in a way children grasp easily. Active students and graduates are of course welcome, particularly for senior-high roles and university-entrance preparation.
The schedule is built from an agreement between you and the student. When you apply, you list the days and hours you are available, then the team matches you with a student whose timing lines up. Many students prefer afternoon-to-evening sessions after school, but you decide how many sessions you can handle so they do not clash with your other activities.
After your form comes in, document review takes about 24 to 48 working hours. If you pass, we invite you to a short introductory chat, then activate your profile. The first student assignment usually arrives within 48 to 72 hours after matching, depending on the availability of a student who fits your subject and location.
Yes, registering as a tutor with EduPoint carries no charge at all. You do not pay to send an application, attend the introduction, or receive students. The entire selection process runs without collecting money from prospective tutors, so anyone in Wakatobi who meets the requirements can try applying.
You certainly may. Many tutors begin with their very first experience at EduPoint. If you command the material and are willing to learn how to convey it, the team provides free briefing to help you start. Teaching one or two students first is a good way to build your confidence as a tutor.
The main way to reach us is via WhatsApp at EduPoint's official number. You can ask about requirements, the subjects open, or the areas that need tutors before deciding to fill in the form. Once your questions are answered, the next step is simply completing the online application so your submission enters the student-matching queue.
Apply free through the online form, set your own schedule, and start guiding students on the island where you live.
