Our goal is to make a notable difference in the traditional ways education is viewed. We are looking to make education equal, accessible, have a global reach and fun to teach and learn.StudentsLink aim is to provide a platform where you can work online from the safety of your home, on topics matched to your interests and with flexible working hours suited to you.
The idea of StudentsLink was born when a friend of Belinda’s (our founder and CEO) contacted her from China to ask if Belinda’s son who is a native English speaker, could speak to her son in English so he could practice for his English exam. Belinda then noticed a gap in the system and thus created a solution that eventuated into a globalised program that looks to benefit both the students and tutors.
StudentsLink aims to create a generation of young people who will thrive in any environment and take their experiences with them into the future, as they become the leaders of tomorrow. By providing a flexible and easy to use online platform, our efforts are directed towards the training, mentoring and empowerment of young Australians.
We work closely with local schools, councils and the Department of Education to help improve and contribute to the education system in Australia while providing safe and beneficial work opportunities for the next generation.
Take a look at how StudentsLink flourished to become the innovative and leading online teaching platform it is today.
