Tutoring in Switzerland — from CHF 79/h + 8.1% MwSt.
A tutor who knows your child's exact curriculum and exam board — at home or online for the same price, assigned in 48–72 hours, and refundable in full if a session ever falls short.
Tutoring in Switzerland with Rundil costs CHF 79, 89 or 99 per hour (excl. 8.1% MwSt) depending on the tutor tier — a degree-qualified specialist in your child's own curriculum, assigned within 48 to 72 hours, at home or online for the same price, with every single session refundable if it falls short.
Tell us the school year and the subjects that need help. We will show you what a weekly rhythm actually costs — no email, no waiting, no sales call.
Our Experienced tutors cover almost every request. Choose the second option for high-stakes exam years or where a student needs additional learning support, and we assign from our Most Accomplished tutors.
Switzerland asks more of a tutor than almost anywhere else. In one classroom you can find a Gymi candidate, an IB Diploma student and an IGCSE cohort, each examined against a different standard, often in a language that is not the family's first. A tutor who merely knows the subject is not enough — they have to know the assessment. Rundil assigns tutors against the exact curriculum and exam board your child sits, then stands behind every hour with a full refund if it falls short.
You never scroll through profiles hoping to guess well. Tell us the curriculum, subject and year group, and we assign the specialist — typically within 48 to 72 hours.
If a session falls short, the student asks and we refund it in full. Not just the first lesson, not with conditions attached — any session, all year.
Most providers are one or the other, and charge differently for each. We charge CHF 79, 89 or 99 either way, so you choose on your week — not your wallet.
No registration fee, no minimum term, nothing to cancel. Add hours before an exam window, pause over the summer, stop entirely — none of it costs you anything.
Every Rundil tutor is degree-qualified and teaches one curriculum properly rather than five approximately. Between them: ETH Zürich, EPFL, the University of Basel and the University of Zürich — and, for the Swiss system, a Lehrdiplom für Maturitätsschulen.

Read full profileEvery tutor is individually interviewed, background-checked and assigned to the curricula they teach. You are never asked to browse profiles and guess — tell us the curriculum, subject and year group, and we assign the specialist, typically within 48 to 72 hours.
Most tutoring companies protect you for one trial lesson, then the risk quietly becomes yours. Ours never moves. If a session falls short on any given Tuesday in March, the student asks and it is refunded in full — no conditions, no approval, no awkward conversation.
The 1.5-hour structure is the same whether your child is sitting IB Chemistry HL in Zürich or the Gymi entrance exam in Zug — diagnose the gap, teach it properly, then prove it under exam conditions.
Rundil covers all subjects across every major curriculum taught in Switzerland, at school, university and adult level. Tutors are assigned to the exact programme and exam board — because IB Maths AA and IB Maths AI are not the same job.
Swiss tutoring runs from roughly CHF 28 an hour on a marketplace to CHF 260 with an elite agency. We sit deliberately in the upper-middle — and the honest question is not who is cheapest per hour, but who is cheapest per grade.
Three steps from enquiry to a tutor at your kitchen table — or on screen — usually inside 48 to 72 hours.
Tell us the curriculum, subject, year group and preferred rhythm on the booking form. It takes about two minutes.
We assign a degree-qualified specialist for that exact exam board — typically within 48–72 hours — and confirm the name and schedule by WhatsApp.
Session one finds the real gap. From there it is teach, practise, prove — with every session refundable if it falls short.
Four very different families, one common problem: the school moves at the pace of thirty children, and yours needs it to move at the pace of one.
IB, MYP, IGCSE or A-Levels at a school in Zürich, Zug, Geneva or Basel. You need a tutor who knows the exam board and the Internal Assessment deadlines — not a generalist.
Your child is heading for the Gymi entrance exam or the Matura, and you cannot help with the German homework. We teach in English and prepare for a German exam.
Mocks went badly and the real papers are eight weeks out. Add sessions now, drop them in June — no subscription is holding you afterwards.
A degree module that will not click, a professional qualification, or conversational German for the life you actually live here. Same tutors, same guarantee.
Three tiers, published in full, identical at home and online. The tier depends on the tutor's qualification and the academic level — not on how far they travel or which city you live in.

|---|---|---|
| Conversational Languages | Practical spoken language for everyday use | CHF 79/h |
| Experienced Tutors | IB, MYP, IGCSE, A-Level, Matura, Gymi, maths & sciences | CHF 89/h |
| Most Accomplished Tutors | IB Higher Level, Matura exams & high-stakes preparation | CHF 99/h |
| What you actually pay | 1.5-hour session | Four sessions a month |
|---|---|---|
| Conversational Languages · CHF 79/h | CHF 118.50 | CHF 474 |
| Experienced Tutors · CHF 89/h | CHF 133.50 | CHF 534 |

For families with a settled weekly rhythm who want predictable billing.
For families whose weeks vary and who want to pay only for hours completed.
Every curriculum in Switzerland rewards something different. Knowing which one your child is actually being marked against is most of the work.
| Curriculum | Typical stage | What it really rewards | Start here |
|---|---|---|---|
| IB DiplomaMost requested | Ages 16–19 | Criterion-based precision, command terms, and Internal Assessment craft — plus the Extended Essay and TOK nobody has time for. | IB tutoring Switzerland → |
| IB MYP | Middle years | Criterion marking that looks nothing like a percentage, and the conceptual habits the Diploma will later assume. | MYP tutoring Switzerland → |
| IGCSE | Years 10–11 | Exam technique and board-specific question styles — Cambridge and Edexcel ask for genuinely different things. | IGCSE tutors Switzerland → |
| A-Levels | AS & A2 | Depth over breadth, and the mark-scheme discipline that separates a B from an A*. | A-Level tutoring Switzerland → |
| Swiss Matura | Gymnasium | Sustained performance across many subjects, in German or French, written and oral. | Exam preparation → |
| Gymi entrance | Aufnahmeprüfung | One cantonal exam, one chance, on a syllabus most expat parents have never seen. Lang- and Kurzgymnasium differ. | Gymi preparation Zürich → |
Switzerland runs more parallel education systems than almost any country of its size. These are the programmes behind the school names you will recognise — and the ones we assign tutors against.
Two promises, written down rather than implied — because the two things families fear most about tutoring are wasting money and being stuck.
A full refund is available after any session if the student requests it. There are no conditions and no asterisks, and it is not limited to the first lesson — satisfaction is guaranteed on every session, in Switzerland, Germany and the Netherlands, across every curriculum. If the tutor is not the right fit going forward, we reassign at no cost and with no friction.
"Rundil made such a difference for our son. He was really struggling with IB Maths AA HL in Zürich, and within a few weeks he became more confident and organised. His tutor explained concepts clearly and helped him understand what examiners expect. He went from a predicted 4 to a final 6."
"Our daughter needed year-long support for IGCSE Biology and Chemistry. The tutor from Rundil knew the Cambridge syllabus inside out and used past papers in every lesson. She achieved two grade 9s and finished the year with much more confidence."
"We needed structured Swiss Matura tutoring for German and Mathematics. Rundil understood our cantonal requirements and prepared our son superbly for the written and oral exams. He passed with excellent grades and far less stress."
"Our A-Level tutor was exceptional — calm, knowledgeable and very organised. He helped my daughter with essay planning and exam technique for A-Level English Literature. She achieved an A*, something she didn’t believe was possible."
"We travel a lot, so online lessons were essential. Rundil’s tutors adapted perfectly, and the online tutoring felt structured and interactive. My son stayed on track with IB Physics HL even during multi-week trips."
"The communication was excellent. We received clear notes after every lesson, plus goals and next steps. It felt like having a personal education advisor supporting our daughter throughout the school year."
At-home tutoring across every major Swiss city and its surrounding cantons — and online tutoring everywhere else, at exactly the same price.
Rundil provides one-to-one tutoring across Switzerland for international-school families, English-speaking families in the Swiss public system, university students and adult learners. The difficulty in this country is rarely finding someone clever — it is finding someone who knows which of Switzerland's many parallel systems your child is actually being marked against. An IB Diploma candidate in Zürich, an IGCSE cohort in Basel and a Gymi candidate in Zug are three completely different jobs, and a tutor who treats them as one subject will be pleasant, expensive and ineffective.
So we do the identifying for you. You tell us the school, the curriculum, the subject and the year group; we assign a degree-qualified specialist for that exact exam board, typically within 48 to 72 hours, and confirm the name and schedule by WhatsApp. There is no gallery of profiles to sift, no trial-and-error, and no fee for changing your mind.
A wasted tutoring hour is not really a financial problem. It is a fifteen-year-old concluding, quietly, that they are bad at chemistry — and that costs far more than CHF 89. That is why the Rundil satisfaction guarantee is unconditional and permanent: a full refund is available after any session if the student asks, not only the first, and with no approval process. It is a deliberately expensive promise to make, and it is the most honest way we know to say that we would rather sell you six good hours than sixteen mediocre ones.
Rundil charges CHF 79, 89 or 99 per hour excl. 8.1% MwSt whether the tutor sits at your kitchen table in Seefeld or joins from a screen in Lugano, because the preparation behind the hour does not change. There is no subscription, no registration fee and no minimum term: add hours in the eight weeks before the papers, pause them over the summer, stop altogether in July. Free cancellation runs until 17:00 the day before any session, and on Flexi you pay only for the hours actually completed. Families across Zürich, Zug, Geneva, Lausanne, Basel and Bern choose Rundil because the good tutoring is the point — and everything else stays out of the way.
Degree-qualified specialists for IB, IGCSE, A-Level, Matura and Gymi — from CHF 79/h, at home or online for the same price, assigned in 48–72 hours. Every session refundable, nothing to cancel.
