Supporting a Student with Dysgraphia

Dysgraphia impacts a child’s ability to express their thoughts clearly through writing. It may show up in how they form letters, structure sentences, or organise ideas. They might have so much to say—but struggle to get it onto the page. Writing tasks can feel tiring, frustrating, or overwhelming, and over time, this can affect their confidence. We understand how tricky this can be—for both children and parents. That’s why our support is designed to be flexible, practical, and encouraging.

How Kinetic Tutors Support Children with Dysgraphia

At Kinetic Education, we make writing feel less overwhelming—and more accessible. With short, supportive lessons and real tutor guidance, we help turn everyday challenges into small wins that build lasting confidence.

Through our online Maths Wiz and English Wiz platforms, your child follows a personalised plan tailored to their needs. With strategies like typing, visual planning tools, and scaffolded tasks, they can learn in a way that works for them—and feel proud of what they can do.

Struggles with handwriting or getting ideas onto the page

What this can look like:

Your child might have lots of ideas but find it difficult to get them out in writing. They may focus so much on forming letters that it’s hard to keep up with their thoughts. Writing may take a lot of effort, making it feel tiring or frustrating.

How we help:

We reduce pressure by breaking writing into small, manageable steps. Your tutor will take the time to chat with you and explore options so we can find what works best for your child. The goal is to help them feel confident and focus on developing their ideas without being held back by handwriting.

Troubles with spelling and sentence structure

What this can look like:

Spelling can be a challenge, and sentences may be incomplete or out of order. Your child might struggle with grammar or forget punctuation when trying to get their thoughts down.

How we help:

We teach writing using explicit instruction, step-by-step modelling, and real-time feedback. This supports sentence building, spelling, and structure—without it all feeling like too much at once.

Avoidance or anxiety around writing

What this can look like:

Your child may dread writing tasks, ask to skip them, or shut down when asked to write more than a few lines.

How we help:

Our lessons are short and achievable. We set clear learning goals, use a points-based reward system, and support progress at your child’s pace—so writing becomes something they can approach with confidence.

Difficulty organising ideas or staying on task

What this can look like:

Your child may start writing but lose their train of thought or mix up the order of their ideas. Their writing might be jumbled, repetitive, or left unfinished.

How we help:

We use graphic organisers, scaffolded templates, and visual planning tools to help children sequence their ideas and stay focused. Their weekly lesson plan targets specific gaps in their learning—giving them the tools and confidence to approach writing with clarity.

Previous support hasn’t worked

What this can look like:

Your child may have tried writing support in the past but felt frustrated or discouraged—especially if the focus was only on handwriting or the pace was too fast.

How we help:

We personalise every learning plan from the start. With flexible access, structured lessons, and writing tools tailored to how your child learns best, we help children make real progress—and feel proud of what they’re achieving.

Why Families Trust our Maths & English Tutors

We start with a free assessment to understand your child’s writing needs. From there, we create a tailored plan that builds on their strengths and supports what they’re ready for next.

Short, structured lessons that reduce pressure

Our 20-minute sessions help children stay focused and complete writing tasks without overwhelm.

Writing tools that support how they learn best

Typed responses, visual guides, audio prompts, and graphic organisers allow children to express their ideas in a way that works for them.

Tutor support when it’s needed

Whether your child needs encouragement or one-on-one help, support is available throughout the week in a format that works for your family.

Progress through confidence, not pressure

Our points-based system and step-by-step structure help children feel good about what they’ve achieved—every small win is celebrated.

Weekly reports that keep you informed

You’ll receive a simple weekly summary showing what your child completed, how they’re progressing, and what’s coming next—so you can stay in the loop without needing to supervise every lesson.

Common Questions About Our Dysgraphia Learning Support

What if my child avoids writing or says they hate it?

That’s really common for children with dysgraphia. We make writing feel more manageable by starting small, using visual supports, and helping your child build confidence every step of the way.

Do they have to write by hand?

If handwriting is a struggle, your tutor will work with you to find what works best for your child. We focus on making learning feel easier—and more achievable.

How do you support spelling and sentence structure?

We use explicit instruction, visual modelling, and real-time feedback to help children build sentence fluency, improve grammar, and strengthen spelling—without overwhelming them.

Will this work if my child has multiple learning challenges?

Yes. Many children with dysgraphia also experience ADHD, dyslexia, or executive functioning differences. Our approach is flexible and can support overlapping needs.

What if we’ve tried other writing support before and it didn’t help?

We do things differently. Our lessons are short, structured, and supportive—with tools specifically designed for neurodiverse learners. Families often see progress here—even when other support hasn’t worked.

Will I get updates on how they’re going?

Yes. You’ll receive a weekly report outlining what your child has completed, how they’re tracking, and what they’re working on next.


So many happy families

Reviews

"Maths Wiz is really exciting, it never gets boring because you can follow what you’re doing at school and sometimes you can even skip ahead a bit and so when you get to learning that at school you already know it."

Ebony, Grade 5 Student

"The programs can give parents a great sense of direction and a sense of structured involvement which will give them great satisfaction. Most children will learn much better. It’s interactive, individualized, special, and it works."

Dr Janet Hall, Psychologist

"I found the programs to be equivalent to a personal tutor for me. I managed to attain not only a high score, but a deep feeling of satisfaction in that I had done my best and had gone beyond my limits."

Sherry, Grade 12 Student

"I am most impressed that, using the Maths Wiz program, the students have successfully learnt difficult concepts without the 'hard work' which is generally associated with learning mathematics through the conventional methods."

George Moran, Principal

"To me it's better than school as it's a lot more fun. I really enjoy using the computer. I try and use the program every week and I do get most of my activities done. I'm feeling happier about my studies."
