Tutors who join go through an ID check. Tell us the class, board and your area: we share two or three matched tutors, each with their fee, and the first class is a free demo, at home or online.
Book a free demo classAcross NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Tutors set their own fee, and you see each tutor's fee before the demo class.
Monthly example: 3 one-hour classes a week ≈ ₹9,600–₹32,500 a month (12–13 classes at ₹800–₹2,500 an hour). An example, not a quote: your tutor's own fee decides the real figure.

Cuttack is where the Board of Secondary Education, Odisha keeps its main office; its notices are now signed from "Kataka", the city's restored spelling. For a family here, the "Odisha Board" means two bodies in turn. BSE Odisha runs the Class 9 and Class 10 years and the Annual HSC examination at the end of Class 10. The Council of Higher Secondary Education, Odisha, which works from Bhubaneswar, then takes over for Classes 11 and 12 with its own syllabus and papers. A tutor who serves state-board students well knows the calendar each body sets, the shape of its papers and where its free material sits. Every term, mark and paper detail below was taken from the two bodies' own websites this October. Open them again in your child's examination year, since changes are announced there.
| Point | BSE Odisha | CHSE Odisha |
|---|---|---|
| Years covered | Classes 9 and 10, with the board examination at the end of Class 10 | Classes 11 and 12, the +2 stage |
| Main examinations | Annual HSC, a supplementary HSC, Madhyama and the State Open School Certificate | The council's +2 examinations in Arts, Science and Commerce |
| Acts it cites | Secondary Education Acts of 1953, 1979 and 1996 | The Odisha Higher Secondary Education Act of 1982 |
| Where the office is | Cuttack | Bhubaneswar, with zonal offices at Baripada, Berhampur and Sambalpur |
| Where to check | The board's own site | The council's own site |
On its About page the council describes itself as autonomous, working under the state's school education department, with the +2 syllabus, examinations, results and affiliation as its tasks. BSE's notice list also carries teacher tests and scholarships, so search it for "HSC" to find what concerns your child.
BSE's subject-wise syllabus for 2026–27 is more than a chapter list. For each subject it divides the year into two terms and says by when each assessment is meant to be finished. The English and mathematics files plan it like this:
| Term | Assessment | Marks | Planned for |
|---|---|---|---|
| I | Internal assessment IA-1 | 10 | By the second week of July 2026 |
| I | IA-2 and the first aspirational component | 10 and 20 | By the last week of August 2026 |
| I | Half-yearly examination | 100 | By the first week of September 2026 |
| II | IA-3 | 10 | By the first week of November 2026 |
| II | IA-4 and the second aspirational component | 10 and 20 | By the first week of January 2027 |
| II | Annual examination, after a revision block that starts in the second week of January | 100 | By the last week of February 2027 |
Because each assessment names its chapters, a tutor can plan backwards from it. In the board's own uploads, the internal assessment and aspirational component appear as "I.A. and A.C." marks, which schools send to the board ahead of the annual examination. How they combine with the written papers on the certificate is the board's decision, so ask the school for the current rule. If the two ever differ, follow the board's file.
We will not guess how the marks of each paper divide between the objective and written parts. Take that from the current sample papers in the board's examinations menu, or from the school.
In the 2026–27 subject list Odia is the first language and English the second; the two English books are Skills of Communicative English and the grammar workbook Learn and Practice Grammar. Mathematics has two prescribed textbooks, and general science and social science complete the core. There are first-language papers in Bengali, Urdu, English and Telugu, third languages including Hindi, Sanskrit and Persian, and Environment and Population Education.
Most Odia-medium schools in Cuttack follow this board, while English-medium schools mostly follow CBSE or ICSE. Three practical points follow. Say which language your child answers in, because the tutor must use the maths and science words of that medium. Where the trouble is the Odia or English language paper itself, look for someone who prepares students for that exact paper; the English home tutor in Cuttack page covers the English side. And if your child will switch to an English-medium +2, begin an Odia–English glossary of science and maths terms in Class 9.
Alongside four electives, the compulsory part of every +2 course is English, one modern Indian language (Odia, for instance, or Alternative English in its place) and a combined paper in environment education, yoga and basic computing. The council's science course document sets the order: physics and chemistry first, then mathematics, biology or geology as the third or fourth subject, and a fourth that may instead come from a second group including statistics, computer science, information technology, electronics, biotechnology, economics, geography and Sanskrit. Its commerce document makes accountancy, business studies and management, and business mathematics and statistics compulsory, with the fourth elective chosen from options such as cost accounting and business economics.
The same science document says the first-year examination is held by the college or school for 100 marks per subject and counts only for promotion, while the pass certificate rests on the council's examination at the end of the second year. Confirm the current rule with the college, since documents are revised. For single subjects, see our Cuttack pages for maths, physics, chemistry and biology.
The council's rationalised maths file gives the Class 12 written paper 80 marks and keeps 20 for internal work, in two halves of 10. The first half comes from three pen-and-paper periodic tests, suggested for July–August, November and December–January, though schools may set their own dates; each is scaled to 10 and the average of the better two counts. The second half comes from at least ten activities done through the year: the activities and their record are worth 5, a year-end test on an activity 3, and a viva 2. A tutor should know when the school holds each periodic test and plan revision for those weeks. The prescribed books are NCERT's textbooks, exemplar problems and lab manuals, with the state bureau's Elements of Mathematics.
| Subject | Practical marks | What earns them |
|---|---|---|
| Physics | 30, beside a 70-mark theory paper | One experiment worth 15, plus the record, a question on the experiments and a viva; at least eight experiments in the year |
| Chemistry | 30, beside a 70-mark theory paper | In Class 11, salt analysis for the acid radical is worth 10, split between dry and wet tests, with a second experiment, a viva and the record |
| Biology | 15 for each of botany and zoology | A major experiment, spotting, the record and a viva |
Steady work earns these marks. A tutor can check the record monthly and quiz each experiment's aim and result, leaving the writing to the student.
During the trial lesson, find out which of these files the tutor actually uses for your child's year. One who knows the current syllabus can name the chapters due for the next IA from memory.
| Stage | What the sessions concentrate on | Typical rhythm |
|---|---|---|
| Class 9 | Algebra and geometry foundations; science terms in the paper's language; past Class 9 papers | Twice a week |
| Class 10 | Chapters secured before each IA; objective questions at speed; written answers; past HSC papers during revision | Two or three times a week |
| +2 first year | The four electives settled; groundwork in calculus and mechanics for science; practical work begun properly | Once or twice per subject |
| +2 second year | Unit marks guiding revision; timed full papers; periodic tests and records; entrance work beside it if planned | Twice per main subject before the examinations |
A +2 science student with engineering or medicine in mind usually adds national entrance work to the council's course; see JEE home tutor in Cuttack and NEET home tutor in Cuttack. For state admissions, the OJEE committee was formed under the state's 2007 law on admission to professional institutions, with the approval of the Skill Development and Technical Education Department, to hold common entrance examinations and counselling for undergraduate and postgraduate professional courses. Which courses it covers in a given year is in the current brochure on ojee.nic.in. Families on other boards can read our CBSE or ICSE and ISC pages, and anyone deciding at the end of Class 10 can use the board and stream guide.
Most of Cuttack lies between the Mahanadi and the Kathajodi. Tutors mostly come by two-wheeler or car, so the first thing we look at is which part of the city they live in. Notes from our locality research:
The zone pages cover every side of the city: CDA and Bidanasi, Old City West, Old City East, Mangalabag, Ranihat and College Square, Badambadi and Link Road and Madhupatna, Naya Bazar and Mahanadi Vihar. Every locality is on the Cuttack home tutors page, and the Cuttack home tuition guide goes zone by zone. Families in the capital can use our Odisha Board tutor in Bhubaneswar page and the Bhubaneswar home tutors hub.
Class 9 and 10 work, with its step-by-step written answers, suits a tutor at the table. In the +2 years, a home session plus an online one is often easier to sustain, and online helps with a fourth elective such as statistics or computer science that nobody nearby teaches. See online tuition in Cuttack and the home tutor or online tutor comparison.
You receive two or three matched tutors, each with the fee visible before the demo; that first class costs nothing, and nor does a change of tutor later. Tutors who join go through an ID check; the Verified badge appears only after the ID check is complete (how we check tutors). Our checklist for parents suggests further questions.
Across NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Each tutor decides their own rate; the pricing guide and our Cuttack fees post explain why rates differ.
Tell us the class, the +2 stream and electives if relevant, the medium of the paper, your locality with a landmark, and the times you can manage. Your opening lesson is a free demo, and tutor profiles are open to browse. Teachers of BSE or CHSE subjects can look at tuition jobs in Cuttack; joining is free.

BSE Odisha runs Classes 9 and 10 and the Annual HSC examination, and its main office is in Cuttack. The Council of Higher Secondary Education, Odisha runs the +2 stage, Classes 11 and 12, in Arts, Science and Commerce, from its office in Bhubaneswar.
IA and AC marks are the internal assessment and aspirational component marks that schools send to BSE Odisha before the annual examination. The 2026–27 syllabus plans four internal assessments of 10 marks and an aspirational component of 20 in each term, with half-yearly and annual examinations of 100.
The board's scoring keys for the 2026 Annual HSC examination list 50 objective questions in each subject, printed in four sets, A to D. The papers also have a written part, since the board rechecks totals in both objective and subjective answer books. Take the exact split from current sample papers.
In the council's science course document, physics and chemistry come first, then mathematics, biology or geology as the third or fourth elective. The fourth may instead come from a second group that includes statistics, computer science, information technology, electronics, biotechnology, economics, geography and Sanskrit. Confirm current options with the college.
CHSE +2 mathematics keeps 20 of its 100 marks for internal work, split into two halves of 10. One half comes from three periodic tests, with the better two averaged. The other comes from at least ten activities: record 5, a year-end activity test 3 and a viva 2.
If your child writes the BSE papers in Odia, choose a tutor who can teach maths and science terms in Odia. Tell us the medium when you send the request. If your child will move to an English-medium +2, ask the tutor to start an Odia and English glossary of terms in Class 9.
OJEE is the state committee that holds common entrance examinations and counselling for professional courses in Odisha, while the CHSE examination is the +2 board examination. The committee was formed under the state's 2007 law on admission to professional institutions. Read the current brochure on ojee.nic.in for the courses it covers.
State-board tutors usually reach these localities from neighbouring colonies, and Badambadi also has the city's main bus terminus. Give a landmark away from Badambadi junction, both spellings, Naya Bazar and Nuabazar, with the lane, and the block and plot number in Mahanadi Vihar.
Tell us the class, board and your area. We share two or three matched tutors, and the first class is a free demo.
