About the Business
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a high‑quality online tutoring business specialising in evidence‑based reading instruction for primary school‑aged children. The business delivers lessons grounded in the Science of Reading, offering structured literacy support that is both research‑driven and engaging for young learners. Families value the program’s proven results, leading to outstanding loyalty, steady referrals and a continuous waitlist for new enrolments.
Lessons are delivered online at a premium rate of $95 per hour, reflecting the quality of instruction and professional brand reputation. The current client base includes 14 active students, with many families returning each year or enrolling younger siblings. Lessons are mapped to a full academic year, using a comprehensive suite of proprietary resources developed by a qualified reading educator holding both a Bachelor and Master of Education.
The business provides purchasers with a complete intellectual‑property package including:
• 40 ready‑to‑teach lessons with assessments (one full year of instruction)
• Supplementary activity packs and extension materials
• All digital training resources and staff onboarding documentation
The business currently employs qualified teachers, ensuring outstanding outcomes and reputation. A future owner can further increase profit margins by engaging trained tutors supported by the existing staff training system.
Operating costs are exceptionally low – approximately $1,665 per year – covering subscriptions for Teachworks, Xero, Lesson Space, and Wix. There are no marketing expenses, with all growth achieved through word‑of‑mouth and five‑star reviews.
The business is fully compliant with NDIS requirements, serving self‑managed clients and providing clear documentation. All payroll and compliance obligations are current and administered through Xero.
Management is simple and highly efficient. The owner spends no more than two hours per week overseeing operations thanks to automation through Teachworks scheduling, Stripe billing, Zoom delivery, and reminder systems.
Included in the sale are the professional logo, business email and Instagram handle, ensuring seamless branding continuity.
With a consistent revenue base, loyal clients, and expansion opportunities into small‑group lessons, school‑holiday workshops, or new subject areas beyond reading, this is a turnkey, low‑risk business ideal for educators or investors seeking a scalable, semi‑passive enterprise backed by exceptional results and reputation.
History
Established in 2023, the tutoring business has grown each year and maintains consistent five‑star reviews with a growing waitlist.
