Itʼs the end of the month. Youʼre sitting at your desk with your bank statement, a half-empty notepad, and a dozen different text messages from parents. Youʼre trying to figure out who has paid for this month’s tuition, how much you spent on new textbooks, and what your actual profit is after all your expenses.

If this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. As a freelance tutor in Australia, your passion is teaching, but running a business means dealing with financial admin. Juggling with sending invoices, tracking payments, managing expenses for your tax return can quickly turn your passion into a source of stress.

A surprisingly Simple Solution

Expense6 is designed to handle the business admin so you can focus on what you love—teaching. Itʼs not complex accounting software; itʼs a simple tool to get your finances organized in minutes.

What Expense6 Can Do For Your Tutoring Business

  • Automate Your Monthly Invoicing: Put your income on autopilot. Set up recurring invoices that send automatically, track who has paid, and issue professional receipts without the manual follow-up.
  • Effortlessly Separate Business & Personal Finances: Stop untangling your tutoring expenses from your personal spending at tax time. Keep everything in one app, but perfectly separated for clear, accurate records.
  • Capture Every Tax Deduction: Never lose another receipt for textbooks, software, or stationery. A quick photo is all it takes to log a business expense and have it ready for your tax return.

How to Set It Up in 5 Minutes

Ready to get organized? Hereʼs an overview to setting up Expense6 for your tutoring business.

Step 1: Download the App & Start for Free

First things first, download Expense6 from the App Store or Google Play. You can start with our free plan, which gives you more than enough power to explore the core features and see how it works for you.

Step 2: Create Your Financial “Folders” with Workzones

The most important step is to separate your business from your personal life.

  • From the side menu, tap the plus button to create your first Workzone. Choose the “Education & Training” type and name it “Tutoring Business.”

This is where all your income and business expenses will live.

Just like that, you’ve built a wall between your business and personal finances.

Step 3: Automate Your Invoicing

Now, let’s get you paid on time, every time.

1.    Inside your “Tutoring Business” Workzone, go to the Invoice section.

2.    Add your students as clients, filling in their details once.

3.    Create your first invoice for “Monthly Tuition Fees.”

4.    Hereʼs the game-changer: select the Recurring option. Set it to generate and send automatically on the same day each month.

Your invoices now send themselves, and you can easily track who has paid and who is overdue.
