Do lessons with a friend and save!

It's simple: 1. You first need to request a tutor. 2. Then, find a friend (or friends) who would like to join lessons with you! Have a chat to them and make sure you're all on the same page about getting tutored together. 3. Then fill out the "Add a friend" form to add one or two friends to your tutoring lessons. You'll each get a reduced lesson price (up to 28% off!). We'll change your pricing and make sure to update it when we've added your friends so you all get the discounted rate. You'll do lessons together in a small group and you can organise lessons by chatting to the tutor in a group chat! You'll all also get access to KIS Plus resources to use outside of class times. Small group lessons are also a great way to stay motivated and enjoy the lessons with your friends - success is better together!

Gold tutoring normally costs $70/hr for private lessons. If you bring one friend, you and your friend will each pay $60.20/hr instead (save 14%). If you bring two friends, you and your two friends will all pay $50.40/hr instead (save 28%). Platinum tutoring normally costs $90/hr: $77.40/hr each with one friend, or $64.80/hr each with two. Executive tutoring normally costs $150/hr: $129/hr each with one friend, or $108/hr each with two. You'll get billed after every lesson. We can save your card to make payments super easy, or send you an invoice which you can pay with your credit or debit card, or using Google or Apple Pay. You can also pay via direct debit. We don't accept any other types of payment method.

We recommend bringing a friend who is also studying the same subject, of course! Aside from that, you're welcome to bring anyone. For younger students, this might be a playdate or a family friend. For high schoolers, this could be your best mate or even partner. Ultimately, make sure you invite someone you get along well with and who has similar goals and wants to learn! Your tutor will involve both of you in the learning process and make lessons as interactive as possible.

Yes! If you've done a few lessons with your tutor already, that's fine! You can add a friend to your group at any time. Just fill out the "Add a friend" form to give us their details and we can add them into your lessons so you can do your next class with your friend!

You bet - you can check out our reviews on the reviews page! KIS only hires the top tutors in each state. We recruit the best tutors and top scorers of every year level, vet them with a thorough interview and application process, and then we take them through an intensive training program so that they become the best, most compassionate tutors who really know how to teach. On top of that, we don't just hire the best, we treat our tutors well with top rates, personal development opportunities, plentiful resources for their subjects, and 24/7 administrative support.

Outside of lesson time, your tutor will communicate via a method that works for you! This could be an SMS texting group chat, email, WhatsApp or any other messaging service. This is where you can all chat and organise lessons. If you're a group of parents with younger children, your tutor can also communicate via these channels with you! During class time, your tutor can do in-person lessons or online lessons (via Zoom, Skype or another video-chat service). You can discuss with the tutor and your friends what works best for everyone! We recommend online tutoring to save on travel time.

Yep! All KIS Academics tutoring students get access to KIS Plus, our library of 30+ video courses, practice quizzes and exam masterclasses. You'll get access to KIS Plus after your first lesson payment is completed. As a tutoring student, you'll get access completely for free!

That's okay! We know life gets busy. All you need to do is get in touch with your tutor directly and let them know. However, please keep in mind that we have a cancellation policy - if you cancel a lesson less than 1 hour before the time you arranged with your tutor, you'll get charged 100% of the lesson fee. So please, if you need to cancel a lesson, do it well in advance! You can find more details about this in our Terms of Service and Cancellation Policy.

Yep! You can find all the details in our Terms of Service. The 3 main policies you should know for private tutoring are: 1. Regular lessons generate results. If you skip more than 3 consecutive weeks of lessons with us, you'll lose your tutoring position with KIS Academics. 2. Lesson timing is flexible, but if you fail to show up or cancel less than 1 hour before a lesson, you'll be charged a last-minute-cancellation fee. 3. Payments are all done online, and you'll only ever be charged after a lesson. Please make sure to complete any lesson payments within 3 days.
