Home tuition is very common in Kathmandu, from primary homework help to SEE preparation, +2 science and management subjects, A Levels, and entrance exam preparation. With so many options, a clear plan helps you find the right tutor quickly.
Know the exam your child is preparing for
- SEE (Grade 10): the national secondary exam. Tutors should know the current syllabus and question patterns.
- +2 / NEB (Grades 11–12): science, management and humanities streams, with subject specialists needed for Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics and Accountancy.
- A Levels: offered by several colleges in the valley; tutors should know the Cambridge syllabus and past papers.
- Entrance preparation: for engineering, medical and other programmes, usually alongside an institute.
Search by area
Traffic in the valley can make long trips unreliable, so choose a tutor who can reach you easily. Look in Baneshwor, Koteshwor, Kalanki, Maharajgunj, Chabahil or Budhanilkantha, and nearby Lalitpur.
Home tutor or institute?
Institutes are good for structured entrance preparation and regular mock tests. A home tutor is better for school subjects, individual attention and building confidence. Many students combine both. Compare options on our Kathmandu centres page.
What to ask a tutor
- Which grades, streams and subjects have you taught recently?
- How will you plan lessons around school exams and the final board exam?
- How will you test progress and share results?
- Can we try a few classes first?
Tips for a good arrangement
- Agree on days, timing and the monthly fee at the start.
- Have a backup plan (such as mobile data) if you use online lessons and the internet drops.
- Give the tutor your child’s school test results so they can focus on weak areas.
- For younger children, keep lessons in a shared room.
