Face to Face Tutoring

In-person tutors for when you want face to face help 🤓

Let's be real, after 2 years of constant lockdowns, we're all craving some in-person real life interaction. If you've decided that online tutoring isn't for you, that's okay. Now that COVID is slowly going away, in-person tutoring is a great option again!

In person tutoring allows students who may not engage well online to get some one-to-one help from someone sitting right in front of them (literally!). Here are some things to consider when choosing in-person tutoring:

Location, location, location 🗺

Where you hold tutoring sessions can be a real hassle to organise, so it's important you know the options available to you. Some tutors are happy to do home visits and come to your house to hold lessons. This ensures you can be tutored in the comfort of your own home while still getting that face-to-face engagement. Some in-home tutors will request a travel fee if you live further away and need them to travel to you. This is only fair as it takes up their valuable time, effort and also petrol money!

Another option is going to the tutor's location. This could be their house, a public place or a library. This might take a bit of travel time on your part, but if you don't want to do online lessons, then the travel will be worth it to see your tutor in-person!

Finally, if you live a bit further apart, finding a middle ground is a great option! Libraries, schools and university campuses are excellent locations to hold lessons. You've got desks and study spaces, printers, powerpoints to charge your laptop and speedy wifi. These locations are great for tutoring and allow both you and the tutor to find a convenient location that works well for everyone.

Resources 📚

Make sure to be proactive when it comes to preparing for lessons with your in-person tutor. Organising your notes and school work takes a bit of extra effort when you can't just click ctrl-f to search for it on your computer. Make sure to log into any online platforms like KIS Plus before your lesson to download the relevant resources for your lesson and print the worksheets out before you see your tutor!

There are a lot of moving parts to consider when organising in-person tutoring lessons. If you ever need some assistance with your studies or subject specific help, KIS Academics in-person tutors have a thorough understanding of their subjects and can assist in understanding curriculum requirements. Our tutors are able to provide materials and teaching on how to prepare for assessments thoroughly.

As a year 11 student doing ATAR, I was looking for a tutor that could help me with French. KIS Academics was incredibly helpful and fast at finding me a wace french tutor who could assist me with my studies. My tutor Eliza Carey over the past few months has helped me so much not only in French but in biology and maths as well. I’m incredibly grateful for the effort and commitment she has put into helping me be more comfortable and less stressed about the subjects I was having difficulty with. It’s been nothing but an honour to be tutored by Eliza and I strongly recommend her as a tutor

Darshil Batavia  Tutor

Darshil Batavia - ATAR - Medicine

Hi! I’m Darshil and I'm a first year dental student at James Cook University. I received the Economics Award (top scorer in Economics ATAR in my school cohort) in Year 11 and 12, High Distinction in the International Chemistry Quiz in Year 12 and the WACE Certificate of Distinction.
Having been through high school myself, I understand the pressure and stress that it can put you through. I’ve not always been a bright student throughout my high school journey, and I learnt the secrets to achieving academic success, in my latter years, the hard way. One thing I realised was that hard work is simply not enough to achieving top marks in a subject. It requires hard work combined with the correct guidance which includes optimal study techniques, notes, and teaching.
As a tutor, I can assure to provide you with this guidance which I wish I had earlier on in my high school journey. I’m knowledgeable and well-versed in the subjects which I tutor so you can expect to receive notes which includes everything you need to know for your upcoming tests and exams, in-depth teaching and study techniques that will allow you to spend the least time studying to achieve top results. I’m very passionate about the subjects that I tutor so you can ask any questions outside of tutoring and expect to receive an answer.
Outside of studying, I enjoy physical activity specifically bike riding and hanging out with friends. I believe anyone can do well in school so If you’re looking to elevate your grades in any of the subjects which I tutor, I look forward to meeting and working with you to achieve your goals!

Jhermayne Ubalde Tutor

Jhermayne Ubalde - 99.75 ATAR - Medicine

Hi, I'm Jhermayne! I'm studying Integrated Medical Sciences and Clinical Practice at UWA, on an assured pathway to the Doctor of Medicine.

In 2021, I was awarded a General Exhibition (ranked 20th in the state) and a Subject Certificate of Excellence in Human Biology (in the top 0.5% of students). I also received a Winthrop scholarship to study at UWA, and a Westpac Asian Exchange Scholarship to study at the National University of Singapore for a semester.

Happy to help with anything chem or human bio! If you want tips on university scholarships or med school admission, I can help with that too :)

Tutoring locations are online or anywhere on UWA Crawley or Nedlands campus.

I will tailor my lesson to your needs:
-Review content you've covered in class and clear up any questions you might have
-Cover future content to get a head-start in class
-Try exam-style Qs to consolidate your understanding and work on test-taking skills
-Go through the syllabus and identify strengths and weaknesses to guide your study
-Talk about how you study and find an approach that suits your learning style

My goal is to help you achieve your goals - whether you need help with mastering the fundamentals, learning how to study, or want a good challenge!

Lotte George Tutor

Lotte George - 99.35 ATAR - Science and Biomedicine

Hi there!
I’m Lotte, and I graduated from All Saints’ College with an ATAR of 99.35. My success in Year 12 resulted in the SCSA Biology Subject Exhibition (top student in the state in the WACE Exam); and a 94% overall. Achieving entry into an Assured Pathway to Master of Pharmacy at The University of Western Australia, I am studying a Bachelor of Biomedical Science. When I’m not studying, you’ll find me running in circles around a track, snorkelling at the beach or hanging out with friends.

I wasn’t tutored in high school, but I understand how beneficial a good tutor can be. I learnt teach both myself and my peers by tackling large topics like a jigsaw puzzle – each core concept is a piece of the puzzle - each piece must fit together. This comes with understanding a subject, not just by taking notes in class. Having coached athletics for 4 years, and commentating sporting events for 3, I have acquired skills for teaching myself and communicating to others to achieve in many different disciplines. I pride myself in being a student who engages with subjects renowned for being content-heavy, such as Biology, Human Biology and Chemistry. Genuine understanding, not just ‘rote’ learning is my philosophy, as this allows for knowledge to be applied which is the key to academic success. I have adapted and formulated a range of innovative and effective learning and memory tools to cement comprehending and apply knowledge to produce a high achieving answer.

Tutoring should not be a one-way process, instead it ought to be similar to symbiosis, where both parties interact to benefit each other. As my students learn their subjects, I learn which teaching methods suit them best. If you are looking for a dedicated, passionate and high-achieving tutor to guide you to learn, understand and apply scientific knowledge, then I’m the tutor for you!

What is Private Tutoring?

Private tutoring is the best option for anyone looking for individual, personalised help with their academic performance, especially for subjects like English, Math and Chemistry.

Private tutors can provide you with structured lessons to teach curriculum content, while also being flexible enough to answer questions as they come up, help look over assignments and assist in exam revision.

A high quality private tutor from KIS is not only a knowledgeable teacher who can answer all your questions, but an understanding friend who once had to face the same struggles that you are facing now.

Are your tutors any good?

You bet - you should check out our reviews!

KIS only hires the top tutors in each state.

We specifically hand pick and 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.

Are your tutors qualified teachers or graduate students?

KIS Academics aims to hire young tutors who are relatable, friendly but also super smart tutors who are great at explaining things.
We firmly believe that tutoring should be delivered by someone with a different perspective to teachers at school. This ensures that tutoring doesn't just become another few hours of school, but a completely personalised time where students are taught in a very different, and better way.
You can read more about this in our blog post: Should I get a graduate tutor, or a teacher?

Why are some tutors more expensive?

KIS Academics has an extensive process for hiring tutors. When deciding whether a tutor should be Gold ($70/hour), Platinum ($90/hour) or Executive ($150/hour), our team evaluate factors such as academic performance, years of tutoring experience, feedback and reviews from students, university experience and degrees, other qualifications and overall performance within KIS Academics.

The biggest consideration when upgrading tutors to Platinum or Executive is years of teaching experience and positive feedback and results from past students.

As tutors develop their skillsets further and gain more experience and feedback, they progress through the three levels- ensuring high quality services to match the price they charge.

Here's more info on our pricing

How do payments work?

Payments with KIS Academics are super easy.
Your 30 minute study skills consultation with your tutor is free

After your first lesson, we'll send an invoice to your email. You can pay it with your credit or debit card, or using Google or Apple Pay, just like when you buy something online! You can also pay via direct debit. Please note that we don't accept any other types of payment method.

Please make sure to pay this invoice within 3 days of your it being emailed to you.

All future invoices are billed after and only after lessons. We can save your card details to make payments easier, but if you don't want us to, just let us know at [email protected]. We'll never charge you before a lesson, and you'll always receive a receipt via email.
Here's some more information on how our payments work: How should I pay my tutor?

How long are lessons?

Lessons can be as long as you'd like them to be!

Because we provide private tutoring, all our services are personalised to you. So... if you'd like to do a 2 hour lesson in one week, just let your tutor know. If you'd like to do a 30 minute lesson in another week because you're really busy, just let your tutor know. If you want to make all of your sessions 1.5 hours instead of 1 hour... you guessed it! Just let your tutor know.

We're flexible and lessons can be the perfect length of time for the student.

How can I contact my tutor?

To request a tutor, just press the "Contact Me" button on your tutor's page and send them a message.

Your tutor will get in touch with you directly by giving you a phone call or sending you a text message.

We recommend you save their mobile number as a contact in your phone, so you can get in touch with them easily in the future!

What happens during the study skills consultation?

Study skills consultations are a free, 30-minute meeting with your KIS Academics tutor.
While we are 100% certain that you'll love our tutors, students and tutors also need to have what we call a personality-match. Students need to like their tutor and be comfortable enough to share difficult problems, frustrating questions, and see them for a few extra hours every week.

So, during this consultation session, tutors will focus on getting to know their student, finding out what their strengths and weaknesses are and then building a plan on how to get the most out of tutoring. You can read more about it here: Free One-to-One Study Skills Sessions

How do I organise lessons?

You can organise lessons directly with your tutor - no need to download any apps or go to any websites, text message and email will do the trick!

Your tutor will be in contact with you via text or email to organise all lessons, meaning you can reschedule and reorganise lessons whenever you need to just by contacting them!

What happens during lessons?

Our lessons are completely personalised to the student.
Every lesson is unique, and the sole focus of the tutor is to help a student find their weak spots, then help them overcome these.
Because our lessons are completely personalised, what happens during lessons is entirely up to you!
If you have specific content or questions to go over with your tutor, you can do that with them.
If you don't, your tutor will have a vast array of curriculum resources and content to go through with you.

We usually recommend our tutors to spend the first part of the lesson working through any questions the student has, then to go through curriculum content together, and finally summarise and make plans for the next lesson at the end.

I want a different tutor, can I ask for someone else?

Yes of course!
KIS Academics prides itself on matching students with the best tutor for them . We are successful at doing this 92% of the time.
We rarely have people ask for a different tutor.
If you do need someone else, for whatever reason, please contact us by emailing [email protected] or calling us on +61 485 868 009.

What if I need to cancel a lesson?

That's okay! We know life gets busy, so we can be flexible around your schedule too.

All you need to do is get in touch with your tutor directly and reschedule the lesson for another time.

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. This is to ensure our tutors' time is respected.

So please, if you need to cancel or move a lesson, do it well in advance!
