Now taking on home, online and hybrid tutors · in Port Blair
Tell NXTutors what you teach and which areas of Port Blair you can reach, at home, online or both. You appear on those area pages and in the shortlists we send to families, and the Verified badge follows once our team has checked your identity.
Tuition work in Sri Vijaya Puram, the island capital officially known as Port Blair until 2024, falls into three zones on our map. Aberdeen & Old Town takes in Aberdeen Bazaar, Phoenix Bay and Haddo; Junglighat & Central Localities covers Junglighat, Delanipur, School Line, Dairy Farm and Bathubasti; and the Expansion Villages are Dollygunj, Garacharma, Prothrapur, Brookshabad and Austinabad, named in the 2011 plan to widen the municipal limits. Homes range from flats above shops and apartment buildings in the centre to government quarters blocks and houses on their own plots towards the edge, so arriving may mean finding a block number, a flat number or simply a front door on a lane.
For boards, CBSE is the one to know thoroughly. The South Andaman district administration's education page states that all the senior secondary and secondary schools are affiliated to CBSE, so expect NCERT-based school work, CBSE sample papers and board-style answers in Classes 10 and 12. What differs is the classroom language: the same page lists five mediums of education in the islands, English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Bengali, and Haddo alone has Hindi- and Telugu-medium senior secondary schools. If you can explain in one of those languages as well as English, say so. A student may instead follow ICSE, ISC, the IB or IGCSE; such learners can be taught at home or online.
Timing and travel shape a tutor's week here. The bazaar lanes fill on shopping evenings, Phoenix Bay is busy around inter-island ship days, and homes in the Expansion Villages are a longer trip from the centre, so a workable pattern is central evenings for home visits and outer localities on fixed days or online. Say a Garacharma parent sends a request: NXTutors puts forward two or three tutors, checking that locality first, then its zone, then the whole city, then online. Parents see your fee ahead of the free first demo and may change tutor later without paying, so steady teaching is what keeps a student. Online, you can also teach learners anywhere in India.
Six steps from applying to your first class. Swipe to see each step.
Start on your phone: confirm your number or email with a one-time code, then add subjects, classes, the CBSE levels you take, any school medium such as Hindi or Telugu, and your localities.
Next, upload a government photo ID for the team to review before your profile is marked Verified; each ID works for one tutor account only. It checks identity; it is not a police or background check.
When approved, your profile shows a Verified badge with your boards, languages, fee and the localities you cover, from Aberdeen Bazaar and Junglighat out to Dollygunj and Prothrapur, plus home, online or both.
A parent in Delanipur or Phoenix Bay sends a request. NXTutors suggests two or three tutors, starting with those nearest the family, then the zone, then the whole city, then online.
Your fee is visible to the parent in advance. Lesson one is a free demo at their home, and we ask a parent to be at home for the demo, giving you a look at the student, household and journey.
Then teach the students you can reach at home, online learners anywhere in India, or a mix, say home lessons in the central localities and online classes for Garacharma or Austinabad on monsoon evenings.
CBSE comes first in Sri Vijaya Puram: the South Andaman district administration states that all senior secondary and secondary schools are affiliated to CBSE, and no separate island school board is named on the official pages. Read the curriculum and sample papers on CBSE's academic website. The district page lists five mediums of education, English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Bengali, so note on your profile any language you teach in. A student may instead follow CISCE's ICSE or ISC, the IB or an IGCSE; check each on its official site and ask the family which board the school follows.
Classes 1–12
The South Andaman district administration states that all secondary and senior secondary schools in the islands are CBSE-affiliated, so this is the board nearly every island student takes. Teach from NCERT chapters, practise with CBSE's own sample papers and marking schemes, and ask which medium the child studies in, since Hindi-, Tamil- and Telugu-medium classes also follow CBSE.
ICSE (Class 10), ISC (Class 12)
A Sri Vijaya Puram student on the CISCE track needs a tutor at ease with long written answers, set texts in English literature and project work marked inside the school. Such students can be taught at home in your own zone or online. Take regulations and specimen papers straight from cisce.org, not from files passed around on messaging apps.
Classes 11–12, two-year Diploma
IB Diploma students can be taught from Sri Vijaya Puram online as well as at home. Both the Internal Assessment and the Extended Essay are part of the Diploma, so guide the student on the criteria and the command terms in each subject guide on ibo.org, while making sure the submitted work stays entirely the student's own.
Classes 9–10 (IGCSE)
Before the first lesson with an IGCSE learner, find out whether the school enters Cambridge or Pearson Edexcel papers, because the syllabuses are not the same. Work through timed past papers marked against the published schemes, show what each command word is asking for, and agree the correct tier early. Online teaching lets you take such students from any city.
Zones marked "Tutors needed" have the fewest tutors living in or travelling to them, so families there mostly see online tutors today. Add them to your travel areas to reach those families first.
This is the old centre around the clock tower, with Aberdeen Bazaar as the city's shopping hub, the inter-island jetty at Phoenix Bay and Haddo's quarters blocks and family houses. Plan home lessons before the evening shopping crowd and away from ship departure times at Phoenix Bay. Some homes sit above shops or in lanes off the bazaar, so ask for the lane name and a landmark. Haddo families may want explanations in Hindi or Telugu.
The five central localities, Junglighat, Delanipur, School Line, Dairy Farm and Bathubasti, mix family houses, government quarters and, around the Bathubasti bazaar, multi-storey apartment buildings. Ask for the block or flat number and where to park before the demo. Several government CBSE schools sit here, so Class 9 and 10 board practice is a common need, and School Line's senior secondary school brings Class 11 and 12 science and commerce. Arrive before the evening market rush.
Bathubasti (Bathu Basti), Dairy Farm, Delanipur, Junglighat, School Line
Dollygunj, Garacharma, Prothrapur, Brookshabad and Austinabad form the growing edge of the city, where many homes are houses on their own plots and you walk straight to the door. Addresses in newer lanes are hard to trace, so ask for a map pin and a landmark. A practical offer from the centre is fixed days plus online classes, which also helps in the monsoon. Prothrapur's government senior secondary school means Class 11 and 12 students live there too.
Women tutors welcome
NXTutors welcomes women tutors in Sri Vijaya Puram, whether you prefer visiting homes, teaching on screen or a blend of both. You decide which localities appear on your profile: a tutor living in Junglighat might accept home lessons only in the central localities and teach Garacharma or Prothrapur students online, while one in Haddo might keep to the Aberdeen & Old Town zone. Homes range from government quarters blocks to family houses with a door straight onto the lane. Each new student begins with a free demo, and we ask a parent to be at home for the demo. All tutors who join go through the same ID check. Treat these as practical tools, not assurances about families.
Read the safeguarding policy and how the ID check works.
What is different from a directory listing or a tuition bureau.
Your fee per class is on your profile, and families see it before the demo, so there is no haggling after a good class.
Each request goes to two or three tutors who fit it, nearest first, not to a long list of people chasing the same family.
The first class is a free demo. Families decide after meeting you, not from a phone call or a price list.
We never show invented requests. The only request details on these pages are real and anonymised, and only once there are three or more.
Every tutor who joins goes through the same ID check. Real tutors who pass carry the Verified badge; sample profiles are always labelled.
Parents can ask NXT AI about your profile and compare tutors side by side. The teaching is always yours.
Tutor plans are listed on our pricing page with what each one includes. Read them before you apply; we do not quote prices on this page. Tutors are independent: you set your own fee, and families pay you for the classes they take.
Each request from a parent states the child's class and board, the subjects, the locality and the preferred mode. NXTutors answers it with two or three tutor profiles, searching that locality, then its zone, the whole city and finally online. Whether you are included depends on the localities and boards on your profile.
Only those you can reach on time every week. A Junglighat tutor might list the other central localities, Delanipur, School Line, Dairy Farm and Bathubasti, add Aberdeen Bazaar or Haddo if the trip suits, and leave the Expansion Villages for fixed days or online lessons.
No, but it can help. The district administration lists five mediums of education in the islands, English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Bengali, and the syllabus stays CBSE in each. If you can explain in one of those languages, add it to your profile so families with a child in that medium can find you.
Mostly CBSE: the South Andaman district administration states that all secondary and senior secondary schools are CBSE-affiliated. A student may instead follow CISCE's ICSE or ISC, the IB or IGCSE, and you can teach such learners at home or online. List your boards and classes, and check the school's board during the demo.
Yes. Home requests go to tutors near the family first, but parents who choose online lessons can see your profile wherever they live in India. You can combine a few home students near where you live with online learners on the mainland, which also keeps your timetable steady through the monsoon.
Yes. Joining and onboarding cost nothing, and the Free plan comes with 160 lead credits a month. The paid plans listed on /pricing are optional subscriptions for extra visibility, AI tools and more credits, never a fee to apply for a tuition. Anyone joining also completes an ID check: a one-time code to confirm a phone or email, then a government photo ID that the team reviews. It establishes identity and is not a police or background check.
Yes. Only the localities you list bring home requests, so you might accept visits only in Aberdeen & Old Town or only in the central localities and teach everyone else online. We ask a parent to be at home for the free demo, which lets you see the household before you commit to a timetable.
Yes. Tick home and online on your profile, then settle with the parent after the demo how many lessons go each way. In the Expansion Villages a common pattern is a weekend home class with online sessions on weekdays, which saves long evening trips from the centre, especially during the monsoon months.
