our story

Just a few years back, we were also New Zealand high schoolers looking for ways to improve our academic performance. In our extensive search for tutoring, we repeatedly encountered two frustrating occurrences. Firstly, niche curricula and subjects lacked high quality tutoring. Secondly, where tutoring was available, prices were inordinately high for students, and wages were inordinately low for tutors.

 

Minerva's free tutor-search platform was subsequently founded to create an ecosystem of educators and learners where aspirational students are able to afford the academic support they deserve and talented tutors are compensated fairly for their expertise.

 

We take zero commission — our platform only exists to help Kiwi high schoolers match with suitable tutors without burdening tutors and students with additional costs.

 

As former students, we want to give you the best shot at academic success. Minerva's free tutor-search platform is perfect place to start.

MISSION

To help driven Kiwi students reach their academic potential

vision

A democratised and accessible educational landscape for talented tutors and high school students in New Zealand
