About Strive Academics
Strive Academics is a modern, Australian-based education technology company on a mission to reshape learning for K–12 students and aspiring medical students. Built by high-achieving students, educators, and tech-forward thinkers, we blend elite tutoring with digital innovation to deliver personalised academic support.

We started as a grassroots tutoring initiative in 2020 and have grown into a national education provider—specialising in K–12 subject tutoring, UCAT preparation, and medical school interview coaching. Each year, hundreds of students trust Strive to help them reach their academic and career goals. And we’re just getting started. We're looking for tutors who can guide students not only in mastering the content, but in developing the skills to learn independently.
