Many students with dyslexia are creative thinkers and problem solvers. We use those strengths to keep motivation high while building core reading and writing skills.
We begin with a short literacy assessment process that looks at phonics, decoding, spelling, reading fluency and comprehension. This helps us understand where support is actually needed.
From that, we create a personalised plan for your child.
Each login shows your child exactly what to do next. Activities are interactive, use audio and visual support, and are broken into small steps. This style works well for students with dyslexia because it keeps things clear and reduces stress.
Your child’s tutor, a specialist tutor for dyslexic children in Canberra, tracks how they’re going, updates the plan and checks in with you. You’ll also receive a simple weekly summary that explains what improved and what we’re focusing on next. You always know where things stand.
Dyslexia affects how children process written language. It does not mean they can’t understand ideas. When reading, spelling and written expression get in the way, it can look like they’re “behind”, even if they understand the content in class. We work on those core literacy skills, decoding, spelling rules, reading fluency and structured writing, so they can show what they’re truly capable of.
Our tutors focus on:
This is especially helpful once schoolwork starts expecting longer answers, formal writing and independent reading.
We build skills in phonics, decoding, spelling patterns, reading fluency, comprehension, grammar, vocabulary and written responses. The aim is smoother reading and clearer writing in class, not just “doing worksheets".
Many students with dyslexia understand maths concepts but get stuck on the wording of questions. We help with number skills, problem solving, fractions, percentages and early algebra, and we slow the language down so they can understand what the question is actually asking.
Our dyslexia-aware tutors in Canberra:
Provides tutor check-ins and weekly progress updates so parents can see change in real time.
At Kinetic Education, we make learning feel less overwhelming and more achievable. With short, supportive lessons and real tutor guidance, we help turn everyday learning challenges into small wins that build lasting confidence.
Through our online Maths Wiz and English Wiz platforms, combined with support from our tutors, your child follows a personalised plan tailored to their needs. With structured, interactive support and clear guidance, they can build skills at their own pace, in a way that suits how they learn best, and feel proud of their progress.
Every child starts with an online assessment so we can understand where they’re at and how they learn best. From there, we create a personalised learning plan that builds skills gradually, fills gaps, and supports steady progress in Maths and English.
Lessons are short and flexible, taking around 20 minutes, which helps children stay engaged and feel confident. Your child can learn when it suits your family, with the flexibility to learn before school, after dinner, or on weekends.
Lessons use a mix of visuals, audio, interactive activities, and guided practice to support understanding across Maths and English.
Whether your child needs a confidence boost, extra explanation, or help when they’re stuck, tutor support is easy to access and tailored to how they learn for up to 10 hours each week.
We celebrate effort and progress, not just correct answers. As children complete lessons, they earn points and recognition that help build confidence through small, meaningful wins.
Each week, you’ll receive a simple progress summary showing what your child has worked on, what’s coming next, and how they’re tracking. It keeps you informed without adding extra pressure.

Years of tutoring success
Customer satisfaction rating
My kids went from 6months behind their class in math skills to 1year ahead after using kinetic education for 2 years. Consistent practice and feedback from the team. Website works great on all kinds of devices. Absolutely recommend!!!
Our girls and I absolutely love Kinetic education for math.
Our girls and I absolutely love Kinetic education for math. I've seen a lot of improvement since they've started at the beginning of the year. I was blown away to see so many BASIC topics they were behind on, day by day, they are chipping away. I think they enjoy it most because it is only a few minutes of their day, with examples to guide and the added bonus of earning points for every task you complete to get themselves a gift card - a great incentive if you ask me, which has helped with our daughter who has Dyscalculia. Our tutor/ customer support lady, Shell is beautiful! She listens and hears and collectively we work together, which i love as we've never had the support from their teachers which obviously lead to areas that lacked knowledge. So I am very very thankful for Shell and her expertise and being understanding and patient.
My daughter is improving in her maths skills. As she has dyscalculia repetition is necessary so she retains concepts. The Kinetic tutorials are engaging and fun for her.
I cannot recommend Kinetic Learning enough if your kids struggle with Math & English.
My son has been a Kinetic Learner for over a year and the lessons have really helped him as he is Dyslexic. His school teachers have seen a big difference in English so much so that he no longer needs support in reading. My son was not a lover of Math but since starting his journey with Kinetic Learning, he is engaged more and is willing to want to complete his weekly lessons. I cannot recommend Kinetic Learning enough if your kids struggle with Math & English. The support team are fantastic and are constantly in contact to discuss your kids progress and what they can do to help make the lessons manageable.
A great program that helped my son, who has autism, close his learning gaps.
A great program that helped my son, who has autism, close his learning gaps. He started at a grade 2 level and after 1 year on the program was at a grade 6 level. It also helped my daughter solidify her knowledge. They loved the incentives as well so it was great motivation for them to complete their lessons each week. The program was so flexible, as I was able to change the number of lessons from time to time if the kids were busy with other commitments. Highly recommend Kinetic Education.
My son, Chase (12 yrs), was diagnosed with autism and adhd at 6 yrs of age. Schooling has been difficult, as he has changed school a few times (at no fault of his own), and some schools have not been forthcoming with assistance and patience. This has resulted in low self-esteem for Chase, a lack of friendships due to self-doubt and an inability to find patience with himself and others. Since starting Kinetic Education, about 4 months ago, Chase has not only grown in self-esteem and patience, but he has also grown in his interactions and friendships with those he is around. Even while Kinetic Education has the incentives to inspire a child to learn, ie; points, extra learning, games and prizes, this is not the main part Chase enjoys.... It's the end of each section when he sees how well he has done, that makes it worth while. The smile and squeal of excitement displayed, makes it so very worth it. Kinetic Education is a service I will always be grateful for, and glad to know.
I highly recommend Kinetic Education.
My son has Autism and has learning, communication and concentration difficulties. He was working as a foundation student in his year three class. Now with the help of kinetic Education and staff members, he builds his blocks and confidence and just started year three in the home. I highly recommend Kinetic Education to all families whose children need a home based very good support to fasten up their progress.
Within 3 months we can see the difference.
We found Kinetic online and went with it as this was the only platform which knew about kids on ASD High functioning activities. My son and Daughter got on the program and within 3 months we can see the difference where both of them had no difficulty doing their NAPLAN this year. Its 15 minutes a day gives the children an edge at school. Communication is great with regular calls and checkups from tutor and admin. Highly recommend.
It has given me peace of mind I’m giving him the support he needs.
Deciding to homeschool my children this year after struggling with my son who has dyslexia and not getting support at school. I have been using kinetic education to help with english and maths and it has given me peace of mind I’m giving him the support he needs. His confidence has improved. I have a happier boy. With our tutor checking in regularly we can see the improvement. So happy we decided to go this way.
We started kinetic education a few months ago. We never expected such outstanding results. We saw an improvement from week one! Our child has ASD and ADHD and has always needed a little more help. We have not looked back since joining Kinetic Education. Our daughters school even approached us asking what we were doing as our daughter had advanced in such a short amount of time. Our daughter quickly went from shutting down during maths to achieving 100% on maths sheets and tests. We can't thank this program enough.
My 6yr old has come leaps and bounds with his English, even though he has Dyslexia and Dyspraxia.
Cant recommend Kinetic enough. We homeschool both of our boys and this program has added everything that they need for maths and English. My 6yr old has come leaps and bounds with his English, even though he has Dyslexia and Dyspraxia. The Tutor is awesome, monthly feedback is amazing and the weekly reports go a long way!! Thanks for everything you do Kinetic!
We couldn’t be happier with how the kids are progressing.
We couldn’t be happier with how the kids are progressing. We’ve seen our daughter (who was really struggling with maths and English start to enjoy learning again. The team at kinetic education are so attentive and in tune with how the kids are learning, adjusting the weekly lessons to balance confidence and progression. This years NAPLAN result has been so encouraging and I think it comes from the confidence she’s developed from kinetic. Our son, who loves learning is being consistently challenged and we have watched his learning surpass his year level! It’s so nice to be able to get a handle on how the kids are going with their education.
After being with Kinetic Education for a year, my child has excelled in both English and Math.
Excellent program! After being with Kinetic Education for a year, my child has excelled in both English and Math. Received positive feedbacks from the school commented on how good the persuasive writing work was, I know it’s because of Kinetic Education, because I can see a dramatic difference after just a year of tutoring. This year, my child did very well in NAPLAN, and asked to enrol for the Australian Maths Competition as well as the ICAS. Thank you Kinetic Education team.
We are happy to finally find an online platform that actually delivers.
It’s a great platform. We are happy to finally find an online platform that actually delivers. Kinetic education was the first platform that correctly identified the gaps in my daughter’s learning and fixed it and because of it she showed tremendous improvement in her NAPLAN assessment. Their teacher support is great and the way they have structured the course is excellent.
This program changed my perspective on learning programs forever! My once struggling child exceeded in her naplan tests achieving above average of the school rate! Wow! I highly recommend this being an addition to every child's homework!!!
Amazing program.. The education department needs to allow children to access this program at school
I was introduced to kinetic education back in 2015, when I was told my daughter was failing at school and needed a tutor. Having worked as a teacher's aide I changed my employment hours to suit my children's needs after school and trialed kinetic education for 3 months.. in those three months my children's performance at school started to change, their confidence in the knowledge they were learning in kinetic helped them to answer questions in class. After the 3 month trial was over I signed up for 12 months in for both my children in this time one of my children had their naplan tests, the results were amazing, obtaining not only top in her school but coming top 10% nationally for literacy, writing and reading was just awesome. I have now signed my children up to kinetic for the full package. The kinetic tutors not only set reasonable lesson plans they adapt them to what their teachers are delivering in class so they are aware before the teacher delivers that section of the curriculum. The tutors are happy to speak to my children on a regular basis to help encourage my children in keeping up to date with their lessons. My children also love the competitions and spending their points in the shop. I'm very grateful for being introduced to this program.
My son is doing a year ahead in Maths and English, with the help of the tutor he is preparing for the selective school exam. Happy for joining in kinetic.
I am happy with the progress of my boy under Kinetic Education lesson plans. My initial plan was to keep him busy, later I found it helps him many way specially when he took ICAS exam! Without knowing but preparing himself for online exams! He is doing really well with his maths and English. Teachers are friendly, professional and very helpful. I fully recommend Kinetic Education program!
Great product for kids to consolidate and improve knowledge
Content and content revision to needs is excellent. Style and format really helped my children improve and reduce their anxiety for tests (especially Naplan). Initial assessment is great to highlight strengths and weaknesses.
I am really thankful to kinetic Education. I am happy with the progress of my 2 kids under Kinetic Education lesson plans. My initial plan was to keep them busy, later I found it helps him many way like NAPLAN . My boy is doing really well with his maths and English. Teachers are friendly, professional and very helpful. I fully recommend Kinetic Education program.
Interactive online lessons and feedback to parents
My son has been doing both English and Math tutoring for 9 months now. He had quite a few gaps in his knowledge at the beginning. The first exam picked this up and whilst this was concerning the lessons have been working slowly to fill in those gaps as well as build his confidence in learning. I have been able to illustrate to both my son and his school teachers the progress he has been able to make during this time. I found the interface quite easy to use, I didn't experience any of the issues others have commented on. The phone call support is available if the student or parent needs further explanation. I view the weekly reports on my iphone or android device without issue. I receive regular calls from my contact to discuss my son's progress. I suggest you ask for a trial to experience the system. I highly recommend Kinetic Education and our school now does too.
Kinetic Education Highly Recommended!!
Thank you Kinetic Education! You have been a blessing for both of my children using this program. It has boosted confidence back in my children's learning. My oldest son will be sitting an exam for a Opportunity Class next year and my daughter has caught back up to her required Year Level. My daughter struggled through her first year of schooling (Kindy) due to Covid 19 and lockdowns. My daughter could not grasp the idea of home learning and using the technology to complete her work. Kinetic Education is very user friendly for children - easy to navigate through their learning. Thank you Kinetic Education. Highly Recommend!!!!
Great option for at home tutoring
This has been a great option for our busy family- my boys have the spectrum with one being well advanced and the other filling in his English gaps.... both are engaged, progressing and the person approach of the human tutor checking in provides the adjustments that computer only programs could never provide.
This is Perfect for school children
This is so useful and so practical for busy families like me. And also my daughter love this and enjoys. Very practical way for her to understand and her performance increases very well. Tutors are very supportive for my child and myself. Very happy of choosing this.
Self-paced, tailored learning suits busy family
Every week there are reports generated so that I could track the progress of my son. He started to make phone calls to his tutors when he needed help. Having tutor-learner interaction is a great bonus for online learning method.
Great online tutoring option for busy families
We like the fact that the tutoring can be aligned or tailored with what school is teaching in a particular class. Allowing my child to relate work back to class work.
Perfect education support for busy parents!
We are pleased to have the support from Kinetic Education. My daughter is regularly practising maths and English through their system. She is happy and stress free, we are stress free too!
After trialing other math tutoring options, this has been the perfect fit for my children and me (just quietly). From the start, Kinetic met my children where they were at mathematically and focuses on their key learning needs. They have been engaged the whole way through. Kinetic makes it easy to follow and perform tasks in the comfort of your own home. With visual tools to aid learning, online tutors and a point system resulting in rewards, it's a total learning framework. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Kinetic. Give it a go!
My 2 children (year 4 and year 6) have both participated in Kinetic’s tutoring program this year and I’ve been really pleased with their progress. There has been noticeable gains in their grades and confidence in the classroom. The program is simple, easy to fit in around busy lives, and the support you receive is great. Highly recommend.
An awesome program for any student of any ability!
This is a fantastic program to help any student in their educational journey. Having two children with learning disabilities I have found this program very useful to help them keep up with the subject matter they have learnt at school and not understood. Doing the weekly activities has meant that we tend to cover math and literacy concepts before the class. This enables my children to be familiar with the work and feel positive that they can do the work, instead of being frustrated that they don’t understand the subject content. The course is engaging and keeps up with the curriculum and it focuses on the children’s areas of weakness and improves these areas. We have been doing this program for five years now and I have just enrolled my eldest child into years 7-8. Thank you Kinetic education for helping my children achieve the academic grades they are truly capable of.
I am so pleased to see both of my daughters (Yr 4 & Yr 5) who were extremely anxious about maths now have confidence in themselves. My oldest daughter is now taking on difficult maths extension questions and with the help and guidance from her friendly tutors Amy & Daniel who have been absolutely brilliant when explaining these problems (ones I had no idea how to assist with). The friendly nature of these tutors has brought smiles to our faces and she now feels more confident in making the call for assistance on her own. My youngest daughter who has learning difficulties and slow processing speed is nailing questions I never believed she would get her head around. With the repetition of these problems going into her long term memory her speed has been improving and her confidence has increased remarkably. The questions have been in line with the curriculum which is great when they say they have been learning this at school. The tutors continue to check in and see if there are any questions or concerns and it is great to see their progress with the weekly reports. Thanks Kinetic!!
I didn’t have huge expectations of this helping my daughter who has an ID and learning difficulties, but after just 6mths using Kinetic Maths we have seen gains and her confidence has soared!! So glad we found this and I would highly recommend anyone considering it to give it a go!
What every parent wants and needs!!
Fantastic program for my 13 year old son. While there are a few small things that could be changed to help my son individually - the program as a whole has been fantastic. His clarity and confidence has grown immensely- so much so, even other have commented on the change. The program adjusts each week to help my son to go over things he’s missed or not learnt, as well as new content to challenge his skill level. To see our son with learning difficulties excited and determined to do his math and English is what every parent wants and needs!!
Really helpful for kids with learning difficulties
We started Kinetic in May this year and the progress we have seen is amazing. Our daughter was diagnosed with Dyslexia last year. This made things clearer to us, as she was so far behind in school by 3 year levels. She recently retested and now has solid understanding and is behind only by a small area in her current year level. Showing her these results has boosted her confidence and her drive to try. Thank you.
A great program that helped my son, who has autism, close his learning gaps. He started at a grade 2 level and after 1 year on the program was at a grade 6 level. It also helped my daughter solidify her knowledge. They loved the incentives as well so it was great motivation for them to complete their lessons each week. The program was so flexible, as I was able to change the number of lessons from time to time if the kids were busy with other commitments. Highly recommend Kinetic Education.
My 2 sons both commenced Kinetic tutoring at the start of this year. One in Year 1 and the other in year 2. My son in year 2 really struggles with school (ADHD diagnosis also) and his end of year report last year was all below average for year 1 except for 1 subject where he was scored an average. Last year the same son attended weekly a face to face 1 hour tutoring session and unfortunately saw no improvement in his grades. I thought I’d give online tutoring a go this year although my expectations were low as I wasn’t sure online tutoring was suitable for my son. Well wasn’t I blown away when my sons mid year school report came back with all average marks and he is tracking exactly where he should be at this stage of year 2. I’m looking forward to seeing the end of year report as he is completing his units each week and doing well in them and his confidence has significantly risen. My other son was already tracking above average prior to commencing Kinetic and continues to at school however as there was no extra charge for him at his age why not and he loves it.
Amazing improvement in confidence
My 8 year old (ASD, ADHD) started in January this year and we are already seeing a dramatic improvement in his confidence - everyday last year i had to personally take him to his classroom where he would beg me not to leave him there plus every night and morning he would beg not to go to school. Since starting with Kinetic Education he rarely begs not to go to school and i have not had to take him to his classroom at all. I can also leave the schoolgrounds prior to the bell going. He also admits that the lessons are really helping him. can't wait to see how much more he can achieve.
Child with ADHD/Anxiety - Success!
We are so happy with this program! Our 10yr old has severe ADHD and Anxiety and we have struggled for years with homework. Homework efforts would result in tears and frustration but now we have a child who actively engages in his online lessons and celebrates his achievements. He is gaining confidence and is starting to catch up to his year level. We can't wait to see what the future holds and to see him reach his potential!
My son is academically gifted and he doesn't frequently get the extension he needs in the school classroom. Kinetic app has been providing him more opportunities to extend himself. The content is clear as well that he can learn himself without assistance. I like how it tracks the competency and keep repeating until they master the lesson.
My kids find this program is able to offer extension activities that build on the work they are doing at school.
This is perfect for families that have children that are struggling at school, that want to extend their child further or if their child wants to perform better in class which will help them to have more self esteem if it's lacking. I have one son who needed extension work with maths and was very bored at school doing maths and he now has his passion back for maths! It has also benefited his English too. My younger son has Autism and this is great for him as he is a visual learner and the tutorial at the start really helps him to understand the concept. It was definitely not easy at the start with Hamish as he could only sit for around 10 minutes, but now he can do it for 1 hour which is amazing. The tutors have been extremely helpful to help us explain things to him that he wasn't understanding or grasping the concept. Kinetic Education has fit in our life well as we are very busy with after school activities and we are able to do it before and after activities and know when the best time is for them to concentrate and are able to do it in the comfort of your own home. The boys also love working towards getting their rewards like movie vouchers, iTunes vouchers etc.
The service provided by Kinetic Education for our son has been invaluable. The issues were addressed from where the gaps in understanding began. The staff are very helpful and flexible with payment arrangements when necessary and very informative on catch up calls. Our child is now advancing greatly in his approach to work at school. All content is agreeable with a child's ability and also offers them the chance to push a little or do more. Great service. Thank you.
Now we have tried it, we will NEVER go back!
My son started less than a year ago, with some fundamental gaps in his maths from grades 3 upwards. He is now doing year6/7 maths, and in English he is doing senior high school work! That's years 11/12! Couldn't be happier with this AMAZING tutoring program, and my son's huge leaps and advances have been all due to kinetic!
This will be the best product you could buy for your children!
Not only is this an amazing product which makes learning Mathematics and English easy and fun, the tutoring and support from the team exceeded my expectations. You get professional support and great results. I have been using this product myself from when I was in grade 3. I am now in Year 12 about to sit my HSC and I am confident that this product has taught me more than what my teachers have taught me through the years. I have even achieved A grades! When I was in Year 6 I was already beginning to complete the 12th grade English program because I was enjoying how Kinetic taught the information. I am now in the top Advanced English course and very proud of my academic achievements. As a student thriving from this product, I strongly recommend this to any other child willing to succeed.
For children that are high achievers or are more advanced than their current year at school... kinetic gives that little extra to keep them going and striving for more! Being able to cater for the individual need through the great tutors over the phone is fantastic! You tell them what works and what doesn’t work and they will deliver! Kinetic has enabled my child to be a high achiever in both school and outside school! He is able to work closely with the teacher to mentor and guide his peers in class that require extra help! Thank you to the team at kinetic education for giving my child a great start to education!
Best Australian Educational Program By Far!!!!
We have been using this program now for over a year. I have 4 children all with different abilities. Caters for the most advanced right through to child that struggles at school. Graeme, tutor, is amazing and on top of progress of each child, making adjustments as we go. Children enjoy the learning as it's interactive and relevant. We have used other teaching programs but have not seen results like Kinetic has achieved. Affordable and actually works. Can't praise it enough!
My 2 boys have been with kinetic education for about 6 months. Not only have they caught up to their current year level, they have exceeded beyond their year level which is amazing. I am very happy with kinetic education. My boys gaps have closed, their confidence has improved and they are no longer struggling.
Ever since my son started with kinetic Education, he has improved so much. He now take the initiative of doing his homework without being reminded, his grades have gone high. Especially maths since he was struggling with it. He even got an academic award in his second term. We can't thank kinetic Education enough for their helping hand to my son's success throughout this year and we will continue to work with kinetic Education throughout my son's school time. We are very grateful with kinetic Education staff who are very professional, kind and always ready to help whenever we called in for help and if we didn't talk them, they will take their time to check on how my son is going and if there is any help my son needs. So I will recommend kinetic Education to any parent whose child may be struggling with their Maths or English etc. Thank you very kinetic Education.
