Benefits of tutoring with KIS Academics
Written by Daphne Lim - Updated
At KIS Academics, we try really hard to make tutoring a great experience for tutors. We were once tutors ourselves and we know what the most common frustrations are.
Our job is not to get in your way and make life difficult; our job is to help you develop into a brilliant tutor, support you and your students while making sure you have all the help and support you need.
Here are some of the best reasons to tutor with KIS Academics:
- We give you teaching resources and will provide you with worksheets to give your students so you don’t have to write your own. We also give you access to notes and a curriculum to help guide your teaching. See what subjects we offer this for here
- We’re super transparent with pay and pay higher than industry average (starting at $35/hour for probation, $40/hr regular) - When we discuss what type of tutor you'll be and the subject(s) you want to teach, we'll tell you exactly how the pay will work and your hourly rate
- Every tutor has a scary story of doing a lesson with a student and then getting ghosted and never getting paid. We guarantee 2 lessons worth of payment with each customer so you know that when you've done a lesson, you'll receive what's owed. 💳
- Let us do the heavy lifting when it comes to admin work - if clients have questions or haven't paid, KIS will do all the chasing up and answer any questions they have. You don't need to worry about any of the admin work
- Work with an amazing team of tutors - we only hire elite tutors who scored top marks. And you'll actually get to meet them! We love holding social nights across our active states 🥳 This was our turn up for the VIC social night 2025!!
-
Career development opportunities. We've previously run a LinkedIn workshop for our tutors (which we made available for public access here) and regularly provide opportunities for tutors to get involved in internal KIS business development roles including sales, marketing, content creation, product management, etc.
-
Top quality service to students, so you know you're making a real difference. Depending on the subject they're doing, we can provide your students with video lessons so they can review lessons, and all our students get access to study skills videos
-
We do the advertising (you don't have to pay or do anything!) and we spend on average $300-$400 per tutor per year
- Freedom to work freelance - you can search out your own students and tutor them aside from the ones you get through us. We’ll list you on our website and pay for all marketing. If students want you as their tutor - they’ll sign up. No loss for you
