Our SACE Tutors are more than just high achievers...




They know the ins and outs of your curriculum, and they care about your success...
...just as much as you do!

Hi 👋 We're glad you're here and interested in finding a tutor for your SACE studies.

At KIS Academics, we understand that every student has unique learning needs. That's why we offer personalized tutoring services that are tailored to meet the individual needs of each student. Our SACE tutors are experts in their respective fields and have years of experience in helping students achieve their academic goals. 🎓

Here’s a brief overview of what you’re in for completing Year 12 SACE…

Understanding the SACE Program

The South Australian Certificate of Education (SACE) program is divided into Stage 1 and Stage 2 subjects. Stage 1 subjects are typically completed in Year 11, while Stage 2 subjects are taken in Year 12. Passing each semester of a subject earns 10 credits. However, it's essential to aim for higher achievements to boost academic excellence.

In addition to SACE/NTCET subjects, students can earn credits through Recognised Studies and VET courses. It's important to note that the SACE system can be complex and understanding what's going on can be challenging for new students and parents. At KIS Academics, our tutors have a thorough understanding of their subjects and can assist in understanding curriculum requirements.

Assessments in SACE

Assessments for SACE/NTCET subjects involve both internal (school-based) and external (set by the SACE Board) assessments. External assessments allow for moderated marking standards. While external assessments often include exams, not all subjects require exams as external assessments. For example, an English external piece may be an assignment completed over weeks, and an arts external assessment may be a live performance instead.

ATAR Calculation

The South Australian Tertiary Admissions Centre (SATAC) manages higher education admissions in South Australia and the Northern Territory. The ATAR pathway is only available to students who complete Research Project B, earn at least 90 Stage 2 credits, with at least 60 credits from 20-credit Tertiary Admissions Subjects (TAS), and the remaining 30 credits from TAS or Recognised Studies.

The ATAR calculation involves selecting a student's best-performing subjects, a "flexible option," and SATAC determines the option that provides the highest possible aggregate before ranking students. The aggregate calculation process involves selecting a student’s three best-performing subjects (with scaled marks out of 20) and a “flexible option.” This option can be another subject, credits from Recognised Studies, or a mix. SATAC will work out the option that gives each student the highest possible aggregate before ranking them against each other to calculate the ATAR.

How KIS Academics Tutors Can Help 🎓

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

Yumeng Liu Tutor

Yumeng Liu - 99.10 ATAR - Science and Biomedicine

Hi, I'm Yumeng! I'm a graduate from the Australian National University with first-class honours in chemistry, and minors in biology and computer science.
I’ve worked as a tutor since high school – and I’ve loved every second of it. I try to create an environment where you’ll feel comfortable making mistakes, asking for help, and taking initiative for what you learn. After all, that’s what we’re here for! It’s not just about the content itself, but all the study techniques and problem-solving skills that’ll stick with you.
I’m super passionate about science communication. A lot of people picture science as something really prestigious, but whatever goals you have for the future, having an understanding for the sciences is essential in navigating the world. STEM isn’t just about theories and formulas either. It’s so important to make science accessible, and to be able to critically examine all the information we’re bombarded with – which is why I love English too! It might not seem like it, but just like anything else in school, there’s methodology in analysing and creating texts.
I’m keen to share all the tips and tricks I’ve collected to smash your studies. Hopefully by the end of it, you’ll walk away just as excited about these subjects as I am. Looking forward to meeting you!

Kash Avadhani Tutor

Kash Avadhani - 97.20 ATAR - Medicine

Heyo, My name is Kashyapchandra, but you can call me Kash!
I'm a current Medical Student at the University of Adelaide and also an incredibly experienced tutor who would love to support you on your education journey!

I pride myself on being able to run sessions tailored to fit your specific needs and goals by creating thorough lesson plans and constantly following up. When it comes to my specific tutoring style, I love bringing abstract STEM concepts into focus through simple analogies while also providing you solid understanding of marking criteria and test structures so you can maximise your opportunities to score well!

I'm familiar with the pains of cramming for a test the night before or pulling an all-nighter to finish an assignment in high school; so I hope that by sharing my relevant experience and knowledge you can avoid these stresses and have a much smoother and fulfilling ride through schooling. Whether it be drafting or preparing for a test I am both competent and confident at sharing the strategies that helped me reach my goals.


There's few things that make me happier than seeing one of my students reach their goals, so please don't hestitate to contact me if you have any questions or just want to have a conversation!

Emilia Tokareff Tutor

Emilia Tokareff - 99.10 ATAR - Science and Biomedicine

Hi, I’m Emilia and I am a recent graduate from Pembroke School. I love teaching and am excited to help students develop their skills! Having graduated in 2021, I am very familiar with the current SACE syllabus. I am now studying the Bachelor of Science Advanced (Honours) at the University of Adelaide with an interest in majoring in either Biology or Geology. I have continued to study English literature and Ancient studies as electives in university, maintaining my knowledge in the humanities.
My teaching is dependent on the needs of my students, whether it be explanations for difficult concepts, revision of material learned at school, assignment help or learning ahead of school work. It is also important for me to provide teaching that will suit various learning styles which enables me to make sure that my explanations are easy to understand. I particularly like to focus on improving the communication and English skills of my students, as this can improve performance across all subjects, not only the ones I teach.
I know that learning can be difficult so I make sure to be a support for my students and help make subjects fun and engaging.
Looking forward to working with you,
Emilia.

Want some more info about SACE Tutors? 🙆

Should I get a tutor for SACE?

Getting a tutor or not is a decision that is very personal to each and every student. If you feel as if you’re struggling in a subject with some of the concepts that are being taught or even if you’re wanting to get that one extra step higher with your grades, a tutor will definitely be able to help you achieve these goals. SACE specifically is delivered in a relatively fast-paced manner compared to your previous years of studying, so there’s nothing wrong with asking for a helping hand especially considering these years form the basis of your future career.

What makes a good SACE tutor?

A good tutor should be able to listen to all your concerns about the subject at hand and be able to create a step by step plan for you that will allow you to relieve all those concerns. They should have strong knowledge about the subject they are tutoring and whilst they may not know everything, should have the initiative to get back to you on concepts they themselves may be unsure about. The basic point here is they should be your guide through this process. A tutor shouldn’t ever be doing the work for you but should be giving you advice on how you can complete the work in the best, most efficient way possible.

What subjects should I get a tutor for?

There is no specific subject that requires or doesn’t require tutoring. Remember, tutoring is a process that is designed for you, specific to you. Every student is different in their own unique way and is going to have different strengths and weaknesses. So what one person finds easy another may find more difficult. It all depends on whichever subject you think you need some extra help in.

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.

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!

You can find more details about this in our Terms of Service and Cancellation Policy

Can I get access to the online resources?

Yep! All KIS Academics Private Tutoring students will get access to KIS Plus. KIS Plus gives you access to 25+ Online courses for the Australian Curriculum worth over $12,000 dollars.
