Parents/Students trying to haggle or negotiate pay

Written by Daphne Lim - Updated 25 August 2025 22:22

KIS Academics has a set pricing structure, as seen on our website: KIS Academics Pricing

This payment structure is set and cannot be changed for private lessons to prevent any confusion or negotiation on the part of students/clients.

If you get approached by a potential client who tries to haggle pay, please send them the following message:

Hi CUSTOMER_NAME,

Unfortunately KIS Academics has a set pricing structure that I can't change or negotiate. If you'd like a discount on lessons, that can be arranged if you have any other friends you'd like to do small group lessons with, but otherwise there are no discounts on private one-to-one lessons. If you've got any questions, please get in touch with the KIS Academics Team on +61485868009 and they will discuss things further with you.

Thanks!

Pay disputes are super annoying and can be awkward for you as a tutor to deal with. Feel free to handball them off and we'll take care of them, along with any customers who are happy to do small group lessons as an alternative 😊

If you have any other questions, feel free to send a message to #help channel on Slack, or send an email to contact@kisacademics.com
