One tutor, one learner
The hour belongs to a single learner. Questions that would go unasked in a full class get asked here, and the tutor can stay on the one step that is actually stuck for as long as it takes.
Bhubaneswar, Odisha
Home tuition in Bhubaneswar, at your address
Home tuition in Bhubaneswar puts one tutor beside one learner, on CBSE, ICSE, BSE Odisha or CHSE Plus Two. Hundreds of tutors work across the city, so the lesson happens at a flat in Chandrasekharpur or online from Old Town. The first lesson is a trial, and the learner carries on only if the teaching suits.
How it works
- 1. Tell us the class or exam, board and subject.
- 2. We look for a tutor who teaches exactly that.
- 3. The first lesson is a trial.
Good to know
- One tutor, one learner
- Home or online lessons
- First lesson is a trial
- Tutors pay nothing to apply

What is home tuition in Bhubaneswar?
Home tuition in Bhubaneswar means a tutor comes to your flat or house and teaches one learner at a fixed hour, commonly in the evening once school and travel are done. The city was laid out in numbered units, each planned with its own high school, shopping centre and dispensary, so the school, the market and the tutor's own address often sit within the same few streets. Lessons follow whichever board the school uses: CBSE, the ICSE and ISC examinations, the Board of Secondary Education, Odisha for Class 10, or the Council of Higher Secondary Education for Plus Two. Explanations can run in English or in Odia, whichever language the learner thinks in.
What it gives the learner
- An hour in which the learner can ask everything that went unasked in a full classroom
- Teaching pitched at the board the school follows, down to the pattern of the question paper
- A timetable built around school hours, evening traffic and the learner's own routine
- Homework and revision checked in front of you, so a gap shows up in the same week it opens
Suits
- Class 10 students sitting the BSE Odisha HSC examination
- Plus Two Science students carrying JEE or NEET alongside CHSE papers
- Primary children in English-medium schools whose home language is Odia
- Working adults in the Infocity offices who want spoken English or IELTS
Bhubaneswar
Getting a tutor to your door in Bhubaneswar
Four steps, from the first description of what you need to the evening the lessons settle into a routine.
1
A few minutes
Tell us the class, board and subject
Say whether the learner is in Class 8 or Plus Two, whether the school follows CBSE, ICSE, BSE Odisha or CHSE, and which locality a tutor has to reach. Online lessons work for learners outside the city too.
Step 1 of 4
2
Edutara looks for that exact tutor
We search for someone who actually teaches that board and that subject: a postgraduate student, a graduate, a retired teacher, or a teacher working outside the school system, and who can reach your locality at the hour you want.
Step 2 of 4
3
One lesson
The first lesson is a trial
The tutor comes home, teaches a real chapter, and you watch how the learner responds. If the learner would follow someone else better, say so and Edutara sends another tutor at no cost. Nothing is settled before that lesson has happened.
Step 3 of 4
4
Settle the days and the hour with the tutor
Days of the week and the hour are agreed between you and the tutor. Edutara sets the monthly fee for your plan, sends the invoice, and pays the tutor for each lesson taught.
Step 4 of 4
Coverage
Localities where we look for a tutor
Bhubaneswar spreads from the temple lanes of Old Town to Infocity in the north, and a tutor's route matters as much as the tutor.
Each request is searched from its own locality. When one comes from Sailashree Vihar or Jagamara, we look for a tutor who teaches that class and can reach that address on the days you want. These are the parts of the city this page covers, with the localities that sit inside each of them.
The north of the city, laid out in vihars of flats and rowhouses. The Infocity IT park sits at its edge and DAV Public School stands in Sailashree Vihar, so a tutor's travel between two addresses inside this belt is usually short.
Localities7AreasSailashree ViharNiladri ViharDamanaInfocityNalco NagarRail ViharPatia- Infocity, the city's IT park, sits inside this belt.
- The KIIT campus at Patia lies at its northern end.
The hinge between the old city and the northern vihars. Utkal University's Vani Vihar campus is alongside, and the roads through here carry traffic from one end of Bhubaneswar to the other for most of the day.
Localities4AreasIRC VillageNayapalliAcharya ViharVani Vihar- Utkal University, the oldest university in Odisha, has its campus at Vani Vihar.
- Entrance coaching centres cluster around Jayadev Vihar and Acharya Vihar.
The commercial high street of the planned city, with the numbered units of the original layout on either side. Master Canteen and the railway station are minutes away, so a tutor coming from almost anywhere in the city can reach this pocket.
Localities6AreasSatya NagarBapuji NagarAshok NagarKharvela NagarMaster CanteenBhoi Nagar- Bapuji Nagar is Unit 1 and Ashok Nagar is Unit 2 of the original plan.
- The State Secretariat and the Assembly stand in Unit 5, a short distance away.
The oldest part of Bhubaneswar, grown around the Lingaraj Temple and its tanks, with narrow lanes and houses that have stood for generations. Schools here run on the state board and on CBSE, and Odia is the language of the street.
Localities6AreasKapileswarSamantarapurBJB NagarRajarani ColonyBrahmeswar HaatBhimatangi- Lingaraj Temple stands here, and the lanes around it are the city's oldest.
- Buxi Jagabandhu Bidyadhar College gives BJB Nagar its name.
The western edge, running out along the Khurda road past the Khandagiri and Udayagiri caves. Newer colonies sit beside older villages here, and the far end of the belt is anchored by a national medical institute.
Localities6AreasJagamaraBaramundaPokhariputPatrapadaSijuaGopabandhu Nagar- AIIMS Bhubaneswar stands at Sijua in Patrapada, on this side of the city.
- Baramunda holds the bus terminal for the rest of Odisha.
The eastern approach, where National Highway 16 leaves the city for Cuttack. Mancheswar Industrial Estate and a spread of older colonies sit behind the highway, and this is the first part of Bhubaneswar a tutor coming from the twin city reaches.
Localities5AreasMancheswarVSS NagarPalasuniJharpadaLaxmisagar- National Highway 16 runs through Rasulgarh Square towards Cuttack.
- Mancheswar Industrial Estate is the city's older manufacturing pocket.
Subjects Bhubaneswar learners ask for
Schools here run on CBSE, on ICSE and ISC, on the Board of Secondary Education, Odisha and on the Council of Higher Secondary Education, and each one examines the same chapter differently.
Subjects
Where Bhubaneswar learners start
Six paths that come up again and again in this city, each shaped by the board and the examination calendar behind it.
Class 10 maths, three boards
Geometry, trigonometry and mensuration taught against the paper the school actually sits, whether that is CBSE, ICSE or the BSE Odisha HSC examination held across February and early March.
Class 10
What the learner gets:
Past papers of the learner's own board
Steps written out the way examiners want them
Weekly checking of the chapters just taught
Suits:
Class 9 and Class 10 studentsLearners who lost ground over the Puja vacation

Physics, chemistry and biology arrive as one paper at Class 10, and most learners are comfortable in one of the three. A home tutor can spend the extra hour where the marks are actually leaking.
Class 10
What the learner gets:
Diagrams and definitions drilled to the mark scheme
Numericals practised until the method is automatic
Suits:
Class 10 students on any of the boards used in the city
JEE with Plus Two Science
First-year B.Tech seats in Odisha are allotted on JEE Main scores through OJEE counselling, so the Plus Two Science years and the JEE preparation have to move forward side by side, in the same week.
Class 11 and 12
What the learner gets:
Class 11 and 12 physics, chemistry and maths kept in step
JEE Main level problems set after each board chapter
Suits:
Plus Two Science students aiming at engineering
NEET-UG with Plus Two
NEET-UG asks for a command of Class 11 and 12 biology, chemistry and physics that reaches well past the CHSE paper. One tutor can hold both syllabuses in view during the same hour.
Class 11 and 12
What the learner gets:
NCERT biology gone through line by line
Physics numericals practised alongside the board syllabus
Suits:
Plus Two Science students preparing for medical entrance
CUET-UG for Arts and Commerce
CUET-UG opens seats in central universities, and its domain papers follow the Class 12 syllabus the learner is already sitting for CHSE, CBSE or ISC. The general test is the part that needs separate practice.
Class 12
What the learner gets:
Domain papers matched to the learner's own Plus Two subjects
General test and English section practised every week
Suits:
Plus Two Arts and Commerce students
Spoken English for adults
For people who read and write English comfortably and still hesitate to speak it: in the Infocity offices, behind a counter in Saheed Nagar, or before an interview. One-to-one leaves nobody to hide behind.
What the learner gets:
Speaking practice from the first lesson onwards
Vocabulary taken from the learner's own work
Suits:
Working adultsCollege students in the city
Lessons shaped around the learner in Bhubaneswar
Not sure which subject page fits? Describe the learner in a few lines, and we look for a tutor who teaches exactly that.
The first lesson is a trial
The learner carries on only if it works for them.
At home or online
Days and timings are agreed between the learner and the tutor.
A fee set by Edutara
Priced for the class, the subject and the city, shared at enrolment and paid to Edutara by invoice.
Our Advantages
How an Edutara match works
The same arrangement in every locality of the city, written down plainly so there is nothing to discover later.
The first lesson is a trial
Nothing is fixed before you have seen the tutor teach a real chapter. If the style does not suit the learner, a replacement tutor is found and you pay nothing for it. This holds for every match, from Patia to Old Town.
At home in your locality, or online
A tutor can come to a flat in Niladri Vihar or a house in Old Town. When travel is awkward, or when the learner lives out towards Cuttack or Khurda, the same lesson runs online at the same hour.
One fee, set by Edutara
Edutara sets the lesson fee for the class and the subject, tells you the amount at enrolment, and bills it on one invoice. Tutors are paid by Edutara for every lesson and are charged nothing at any point.
Taught to the board the school follows
A CBSE Class 10 paper and a BSE Odisha HSC paper reward different habits of answering. The tutor we look for teaches the one your school sits, with its own question papers and its own marking.
Hours that fit the Odisha school day
Schools across the state move to early morning hours in the hot weeks before the summer vacation, which frees the afternoon. Lesson timings shift with that, and again when the Puja vacation comes in October.
Questions learners in Bhubaneswar ask
How a home tutor is found here, what it costs, and how the boards and the calendar shape the year.
Start by describing the learner: the class, the board the school follows, the subject that is slipping, the locality you live in, and whether the lesson should happen at the house or on a screen. Edutara then looks for a tutor who teaches that exact combination and can reach you at the hour you want. The first lesson is a trial: you watch a real chapter being taught, and the arrangement continues only if it suits the learner.
Yes. Schools in Bhubaneswar run on CBSE, on ICSE and ISC, on the Board of Secondary Education, Odisha and on the Council of Higher Secondary Education, and the question papers differ in shape and in marking. When you tell us the board, we look for someone who has taught it, because a Class 10 HSC paper and a CBSE Class 10 paper ask for different habits of answering.
You can ask for a tutor anywhere in the city: Chandrasekharpur, Patia and Sailashree Vihar in the north, Jayadev Vihar, Nayapalli and Saheed Nagar in the centre, Old Town and BJB Nagar in the south, Khandagiri and Jagamara in the west, Rasulgarh and Laxmisagar in the east. Whether a tutor can reach a particular address at a particular hour depends on that route in the evening, so give us the timing you have in mind along with the locality.
You pay Edutara, and Edutara pays the tutor. A tutor riding from Old Town to Chandrasekharpur spends more of the evening on the road than one teaching inside the same vihar, so Edutara sets the fee with the distance beside the class and the subject, and you see it at enrolment. Tutors never pay Edutara anything: no joining fee and no charge for a lead.
Yes. Cuttack is about 26 km from Bhubaneswar along National Highway 16 and the two are called the twin cities of Odisha, yet an evening crossing in either direction can swallow the hour the lesson needs. Online lessons remove the travel completely, and the same arrangement suits learners in Khurda, Jatni or Puri who want a tutor the town itself does not have.
The Board of Secondary Education, Odisha held the 2026 Class 10 examination from 19 February to 2 March and declared the results on 2 May, and it announces each session's timetable towards the end of the preceding year. CBSE now holds Class 10 in two phases, February and May, with the February attempt compulsory and the May one open for improving up to three subjects. A student who begins tuition in Class 9, or early in Class 10, gets a full year of revision in place of a scramble through January.
No. A tutor who can explain a concept in Odia and then give the learner the English sentence to write in the examination is doing exactly the right job. According to the 2011 Census, Odia is the mother tongue of about 88 per cent of Bhubaneswar's residents, while a large share of the city's schools teach in English. Holding both languages inside one hour is ordinary work here, and you can ask for it when you describe what you need.
Tutors are college and postgraduate students, graduates, retired teachers, and teachers working outside the school system. A teacher currently employed in a school cannot give private tuition: Section 28 of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act, 2009 bars it, so Edutara does not take them on. Everyone else who is eligible can apply, and applying is free.
First-year B.Tech, B.Arch and B.Plan seats in Odisha are allotted on JEE Main scores through OJEE counselling, so JEE Main is the paper that decides an engineering seat in the state. Medical admission runs on NEET-UG. The OJEE examination itself covers B.Pharm, MCA, MBA, the integrated MBA and lateral entry into B.Tech and B.Pharm, and in 2026 it was held as a computer-based test in early May. CUET-UG is the route into central university programmes.
Yes, and those weeks are quietly productive. The School and Mass Education Department fixed the 2026 summer vacation from 6 May to 17 June and the Puja vacation from 17 to 26 October. With school out of the way, a tutor can take the long chapters that never fit into an ordinary week. Timings move earlier in summer, since schools in the state run from 6:30 am in the hot weeks before the break.

A guide for Bhubaneswar learners
Home tuition in Bhubaneswar: what to know
Most schools in the city belong to one of four systems. The Board of Secondary Education, Odisha conducts the Class 10 examination, still called the matric or HSC examination by almost everyone who has sat it. The Council of Higher Secondary Education, Odisha conducts the Plus Two examination in the Arts, Science, Commerce and Vocational streams. Alongside them, CBSE and the ICSE and ISC examinations of the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations run in a large number of private schools across Chandrasekharpur, Nayapalli, Patia and Jayadev Vihar.
The state government has said it intends to bring Class 10 and Plus Two under one board by merging BSE and CHSE, and a draft law was reported in September 2026. For a learner sitting an examination this session, nothing has changed. The practical question for the learner stays the same: ask the school which board's question paper will be set, and make sure the tutor has taught that paper before.
- BSE Odisha conducts the Class 10 HSC examination
- CHSE Odisha conducts Plus Two in the Arts, Science, Commerce and Vocational streams
- CBSE and ISC papers reward different answering habits from the state board
- Odia and English are both used as media of instruction across the city
The School and Mass Education Department sets the calendar for government, aided and privately managed schools in the state, and that calendar decides when tuition earns its place. For 2026 it fixed the summer vacation from 6 May to 17 June and the Puja vacation from 17 to 26 October. In the hot weeks before the summer break, schools across Odisha were ordered to run from 6:30 am to 10:30 am, which pulls the whole day forward and leaves the afternoon open for a lesson.
Board examinations sit at the other end of the year. The Board of Secondary Education, Odisha held the 2026 Class 10 examination from 19 February to 2 March and published the results on 2 May, and the Council of Higher Secondary Education declared the Plus Two results on 20 May. The timetable for the coming session is announced by the board itself, usually towards the close of the preceding year, so a student planning tuition counts backwards from a February start.
- Summer vacation 2026: 6 May to 17 June
- Puja vacation 2026: 17 to 26 October
- Class 10 examination window: February into early March
- Morning school hours from 6:30 am in the weeks before the summer break
Engineering admission in Odisha runs on JEE Main. First-year B.Tech, B.Arch, B.Plan and integrated M.Sc seats are allotted through OJEE counselling on JEE Main scores, with NATA added for architecture, so a Plus Two Science student aiming at a state engineering seat is preparing for a national paper. IIT Bhubaneswar, whose campus stands at Argul near Jatani in Khordha district, admits through JEE Advanced and the JoSAA process that follows it.
The OJEE examination itself covers a different set of courses: B.Pharm, MCA, MBA, the integrated MBA, M.Tech and lateral entry into the second year of B.Tech and B.Pharm. In 2026 it was conducted as a computer-based test in early May. Medical admission runs on NEET-UG, and AIIMS Bhubaneswar at Sijua in Patrapada fills its MBBS seats through the national counselling that follows. CUET-UG is the route into central university programmes for Arts, Commerce and Science students alike.
- JEE Main decides first-year B.Tech seats, allotted through OJEE counselling
- The OJEE paper covers B.Pharm, MCA, MBA and lateral entry
- NEET-UG for medical seats, AIIMS Bhubaneswar included
- CUET-UG for admission to central universities
Bhubaneswar was designed in 1946 by the German architect Otto Königsberger and became the capital of Odisha on 13 April 1948. It was laid out in numbered units, each planned with its own high school, shopping centre, dispensary and play areas, and Unit 5 holds the State Secretariat and the Assembly. That plan still governs how the city speaks about itself: Bapuji Nagar is Unit 1, Ashok Nagar is Unit 2, Kharvela Nagar is Unit 3, and a resident giving directions is as likely to name a unit as a street. According to the 2011 Census the city had about 8.4 lakh residents and a literacy rate above 93 per cent.
The newer city grew north and west of that core, into the vihars of Chandrasekharpur, Patia and Sailashree Vihar, and out along the Khurda road past Khandagiri. A postgraduate student living near the Vani Vihar campus can reach Jayadev Vihar in minutes and Old Town in a good deal longer. That distance is why we ask for the locality along with the class: a tutor who is right on paper and an hour's ride away will not last a full term.
- Units are still how the central city is addressed
- The State Secretariat and the Assembly stand in Unit 5
- Chandrasekharpur, Patia and Khandagiri carry the newer growth
- Give us the locality with the class, so the travel is realistic
The Comprehensive Modular Survey: Education 2025, conducted by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation as part of the 80th round of the National Sample Survey, found that 27 per cent of students in India were taking private coaching, and 30.7 per cent of students in urban areas. In Bhubaneswar that shows itself on the ground: entrance coaching centres cluster around Jayadev Vihar, Acharya Vihar and Saheed Nagar, and a Plus Two Science student often spends several evenings a week travelling to one.
A coaching batch moves at the pace of the batch, which serves a learner who is already close to the level being taught. Home tuition does the other job. It sits with one learner, finds the chapter where the understanding first broke, and rebuilds from there before the next class test arrives. Plenty of students in the city use both: coaching for the entrance syllabus, and a home tutor for the board papers that decide the marksheet.
- A coaching batch moves at one pace for everybody in the room
- Home tuition starts from where this particular learner is
- Entrance coaching clusters near Jayadev Vihar and Acharya Vihar
- Many students pair coaching with a home tutor
Ask for a home tutor in Bhubaneswar
Write down the class, the board, the subject and the part of the city you live in. The first lesson is a trial, so you decide once you have seen the teaching.
What to expect
- One tutor for one learner
- At home in your locality or online
- Billed by Edutara on one invoice
- Tutors pay nothing to apply
Begin with one trial lesson and continue only if the tutor suits the learner. After that, a single Edutara invoice covers the lessons.
