i dont get adding big numbers like 47 + 35

No worries! Let's think about it like the Panthers scoring points. If they score 47 points in the first half and 35 in the second half, we need to add them up. Start with the ones column — what is 7 plus 5?

12!

Yes! So we write down the 2 and carry the 1. Now add the tens. What is 4 plus 3 plus the 1 we carried? 🎉

I have to write a persuasive text to convince my teacher fidget toys should be allowed

Great topic! A strong persuasive text needs a clear position and reasons that will convince your reader. Who are you writing this for — your teacher specifically?

yes my teacher Mrs Johnson

Perfect — so your arguments need to speak to what a teacher cares about. What do you think Mrs Johnson's main concern about fidget toys would be? 🤔

probably that they're distracting

Exactly right! So if you can show evidence that they actually help focus rather than hurt it, you directly address her concern. What do you know about why some students find them helpful?

I don't understand how to balance chemical equations

Good question. The key rule is that atoms can't be created or destroyed in a reaction, so the number of each atom must be the same on both sides. Let's try a simple one — hydrogen and oxygen forming water. How would you write that unbalanced?

H2 + O2 → H2O?

Good start. Now count the oxygen atoms on each side. How many on the left, and how many on the right?

2 on the left and 1 on the right

Exactly — they don't match, which means it's not balanced yet. What could you do to the right side to fix the oxygen count without changing the formula?

Why pay $50/hr for a tutor?

Private tutoring is brilliant, but most families can only afford one or two sessions a week. With SubjectMate, your child can access personalised learning support every single day, not just when a tutor is available.

Private tutor

$50/hr

Great tutors, but their time is limited and expensive. Most families manage one or two sessions a week and cross their fingers for the rest.

2 sessions a week, 4 weeks = $400+ a month

Online tutoring platforms

$90+/hr

Live sessions with qualified tutors sound great, but the hourly rates add up fast and most families simply can't afford it more than once a week.

Just 1 session a week = $360+ a month

SubjectMate

$19/mo

Unlimited help, every subject, every day. Available at 11pm the night before an exam. No booking required. No waiting.

Built only for Australia

Every other AI tutor is built for America.

Generic AI tutoring tools are built for the US Common Core. They don't know what a Band 6 is. They've never heard of ATAR. They can't help with a Year 11 VCAA Chemistry SAC.

🎯

Aligned to your exact state syllabus

NSW NESA, VIC VCAA, QLD QCAA, WA SCSA and more. The tutor knows your curriculum dot points, not America's.

📝

Knows HSC, ATAR, SACs, and QCE

SubjectMate understands Australian assessment including extended responses, practicals, and exam technique specific to your state's requirements.

🇦🇺

Sounds like an Australian tutor

Always "maths", never "math". Australian spelling throughout. Local examples and contexts. It sounds like it belongs here because it was built here.

🎯

Learns what your child loves

When your child signs up, they tell us their hobbies and interests. From that moment, every example and explanation is built around what they care about. A kid who loves AFL gets maths explained through match stats. A kid who loves cooking gets fractions through recipes. Learning sticks when it feels personal.

How it works

Guides, never tells.

SubjectMate uses the Socratic method, the same technique the world's best tutors use to build understanding that actually sticks.

Your child asks a question

Paste a problem, ask about a concept, or share their working. Any subject, any year level, any Australian state from Year 3 to Year 12.

SubjectMate guides, not gives

Rather than handing over the answer, it asks the right questions to lead your child to discover it themselves, just like a great tutor would.

Real understanding, not just answers

Because they worked it out themselves, it sticks. Research shows students retain far more when guided to a solution than when handed one.

Questions parents ask

Won't it just do my child's homework for them?

SubjectMate is designed from the ground up to never give direct answers. It uses the Socratic method, asking guiding questions that lead your child to figure it out themselves. If they push for the answer, it kindly declines and redirects. This is the core of what makes it different from just asking ChatGPT.

Why not just use ChatGPT or Google?

ChatGPT will just hand over the answer, which defeats the purpose of learning. SubjectMate is specifically built and tested to guide rather than tell. It's also aligned to your child's specific state curriculum, year level, and subject, something a generic AI doesn't do reliably.

Is it really as good as a real tutor?

For everyday homework help, concept revision and exam prep, it's remarkably good. Like any tool, it works best when a student engages with it consistently. The more your child uses it, the better their results. Most families find it replaces the need for a regular tutor entirely.

What subjects does it cover?

Mathematics (Standard, Advanced, Extension 1 & 2), English, Science, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, History, Geography, Economics, Legal Studies, and more. Select your state and year level in the app and the tutor adjusts automatically.

Can I cancel any time?

Absolutely. No lock-in, no cancellation fees. Cancel from your account settings any time and you won't be billed again. We think our product should keep you subscribed, not the fear of cancellation.

Is my child's data safe?

Yes. We comply with the Australian Privacy Act 1988. Your child's chat sessions are processed securely by our AI provider and are not used to train any models. We never sell your data to third parties. You can request deletion of all your data at any time. See our full Privacy Policy for details.
