I Would Give This Company ZERO stars If I Could

Do not waste your money or your children's time with this company. My children have used this tutoring service for nearly a year. The tutor assigned to my children failed to show up to a scheduled session, then silently left the meeting after 15 minutes -- no warning, no apology, no follow up. I had to chase them myself just to get any response.

Even more concerning: I later discovered the company had apparently internally discussed about whether my children were even suitable for online tutoring -- yet they said nothing to me and kept booking sessions and charging for sessions regardless. That is not just unprofessional or poor communication. it is dishonest. It is taking money from a family while knowing the service may not be appropriate for their children

Poor communication, zero accountability, and complete disregard for families' time. there are far better tutoring services out there -- look elsewhere.

Chemistry tutoring w/ Ruhab!

I did online tutoring with Ruhab in the leadup to my chemistry exam and she was super helpful! She always made sure i understood the content and went through examples in different ways if needed! She also was really organised, making summaries and sending through really useful additional practice questions that helped me gain an in depth understanding of the chemistry content! Would totally recommend Ru for VCE Chemistry!!

Very helpful and nice tutor experience.

Kim Thu Do is an amazing tutor and has been helping me in my high school English studies. It is perfect having a private tutor so I can align my lessons with the curriculum, and Kim makes it very easy to communicate the material I want to cover. I will be continuing this tutoring!

My experience with KIS math tutor

Keisha (my maths specialist tutor) has been great so far. She explains the content clearly and catches any of my mistakes at lightspeed (not exaggerating), and overall has been a huge factor in allowing me to maintain a good score in spec. If you are looking for an excellent tutor that will produce you results as long as you put the effort in, Keisha is a great option.

Jason zhu provided excellent support

Jason zhu provided excellent support to my son in IB Physics SL. Beyond simply covering the syllabus, he focused on helping my son understand how to approach complex questions effectively. He taught him to identify key concepts, break problems down into clear, logical steps, and apply the appropriate methods with confidence.

Helpful tutor

Amazing tutoring!

I found my tutor, Kartiya Gunarathna, through KIS academics. She has been incredible to work with and learn from! She has really helped me elevate my English and I’ve seen a huge improvement in my SAC scores just from working with her. She always makes me feel comfortable, and I thoroughly enjoy my time with her! I look forward to each lesson with Kartiya, through the KIS platform, and am super grateful to them for providing me with an amazing tutor! 100% recommend :)

Viola Halmai is the best tutor

Viola Halmai is the best tutor I have had. I have never been more confident with Maths Methods and my grades have improved significantly. Viola makes every session enjoyable and ensures that I understand everything and pushes me to bring on more challenging questions, making me a better VCE student. I look forward to every session with Viola and I am also very grateful to have her support in my VCE journey.

My experience of tutor Charlotte Landherr

From my experience tutor Charlotte Landherr has extensive understanding of High School chemistry content. During our lessons she already had detailed notes on each syllabus section and a range of practice questions ready based on my QCAA curriculum. She shared personal techniques that she used during High School and this helped me really understand the content. She also helped me refine my assignment and prepare for my data test. Overall she’s a great tutor that puts lots of effort into helping me.

Physics has never been easier!

I’ve been getting tutored for VCE Physics by Viola Halmai since January this year and I have never felt more confident with my understanding of the topics and my outcome in grades in the subject. She’s so supportive and has a wide range of resources and tips to offer every student. She navigates complex concepts with so much clarity and simplicity that by the time my classmates are introduced to ideas, I am already looking at exam style questions. I highly recommend that any student who’s struggling with Physics to try a session with her!

I have been doing tutoring from Catherine for over a year now!

I'm so glad I made the decision to be tutored by Catherine!

Catherine has been an amazing tutor at KIS academics. She explains difficult concepts in a really clear and simple way, which has helped me understand topics that I previously struggled with. She is also incredibly patient and is always available if you have any questions, and provides a lot of feedback. With Catherine, not only have I boosted my grades in VCE English, but I have also built confidence and understanding in the subject!

I would highly recommend Catherine to anyone looking for an amazing VCE English tutor:)

English Tutor - Harry S.

Harry S. has been tutoring me in Year 11 and HSC English Advanced for the past year and has been fantastic! He has helped me gain confidence in my English skills such as writing structured essays and I have seen a great increase in my grades since having him as a tutor. He always reads up on whichever text I am studying so that he can provide helpful input into our sessions. Harry is clear, supportive, and helps you understand complex analysis. I couldn't recommend him enough as a tutor!
