We’re so excited to bring you the Kinetic Education review! For mums and parents, our child’s education is so important and whether we can see they’re struggling or we just want to make sure they don’t start falling behind, tutoring is a great way to ensure your child never gets stuck with their learning.
For this campaign we’re excited to announce the Kinetic Education review! Kinetic Education is an Australian tutoring company supporting the Australian Maths and English Curriculum from K – 12. Kinetic Education combines online tutors and online learning. It is personalised, more affordable and flexible – making it great for busy families.
With so many children’s learning being interrupted from School closures this year, the need for online tutoring has never been so high. With Kinetic Education you can be confident your child has all the learning support they need.
The Kinetic Education Program includes:
Kinetic Education works in 4 Easy Steps:
Step 1: Kinetic Education will do an assessment to find any knowledge gaps holding your child back. For some, these gaps will be from past grades, for others it may be from their current or future grades. This means they can help your child regardless of whether they are the top student and you want to advance them, or if they are at the bottom of the class and you want to build up their confidence and help them catch up.
Step 2: Every Monday Kinetic Education will create a new learning plan for your child, made especially for them, based on what they are ready for. Normally they recommend just 20 minutes 4 times a week.
Step 3: Your family is assigned a tutor to help ensure your child never gets stuck with their learning.
Step 4: Kinetic Education rewards your child with real prizes as they learn.
It’s a little wonder why Kinetic Education has been so successful and helped over 80,000 Australian children over the last 28 years – and it’s affordable too.
For the Kinetic Education review we are looking for mums who want to improve their child’s Maths and English with online tutoring for 6 weeks. You simply need a School child between grades 1 and 10, access to the internet at home and be able to commit to 15 to 30 minutes, 3 to 4 times a week, for 6 weeks.
We love when mums submit video reviews! See what this MoM Member and her little girl thought here!
My kids and I really enjoyed trialling Kinetic Education’s online tutoring program. I loved that there was an initial assessment to work out if there were any gaps in their knowledge and where they were, so that each child’s program was tailored specifically to them. It wasn’t just a one size fits all across the board lesson. And as they progressed through their program their tutor would tweak their program as needed, concentrating on areas they still weren’t getting or increasing the difficulty level where it was clearly too easy. Their progress was constantly monitored and their tutor was in communication with me at least once a week, and always available to discuss any concerns. I would definitely recommend it and will absolutely look at signing up for it in the future

The time has come for our trial to end and after nearly 6 weeks my kids have enjoyed it, found some parts challenging, but have worked their way through it all, and enjoyed most of it, I have found Kinetic Education great with our Tutor ringing weekly and giving me up dates and helping the kids whenever they have needed it. The work is set out so its easy to understand and if any dramas we can talk to somebody, they found some children with a gap and have helped close the gap so they can understand their school work much easier now.

Kinetic Education came at the perfect time for my family. I had noticed that my two school-aged children had had difficulties in some areas of English and Maths for sometime and I knew that these issues would create further obstacles down the line if they weren’t fixed. I tried my best to help them but I had difficulty trying to find the time for both of them on a daily basis as well as taking care of the rest of my family.
From the first moment I spoke with Kinetic Education I was so relieved with just how easy, confident and streamlined the whole process was. They listened to my concerns for both of my children and helped me come-up with a weekly personalised learning program that fitted into their school commitments as well as their after school extracurricular activities. Professional, positive, a tailored tutoring service that provides a fun and engaging learning experience that actually makes learning fun and not a chore. Well done Kinetic Education!

My daughter and I absolutely LOVED the 6 week trial that we had with Kinetic Education. From the get go, staff were friendly and helpful with their weekly check ins, the reports that were sent to me via email were of useful insight to me as a mother and the actual program was a blast for my daughter! I was not too sure how it would go with her being a senior student but the weekly tasks had her full attention and she has learnt so much along the way. The incentive program is such a great way for her to stay motivated to hopefully cash in her points for a shopping voucher! A big thumbs up from both of us!

So very happy with our trial of Kinetic Education’s tutoring program. My son has loved the experience from the start (which I was thrilled with, given we have been home schooling for way too long this year!). He has been engaged and excited to do his work. It has helped him tremendously through this time, and is something we will continue with after this trial stage. I would recommend this to anyone (and have done so already!)

Kinetic has been a great experience for our daughter in Year 4. She loves the online learning which she can do at her own pace with clear examples and fun graphics, a great tutor at the end of the phone should she need him and the chance to earn incentives such as retail vouchers for completing tasks.

My daughter is in year 2 and is a bit behind her peers, and through Kinetic we are able to help her improve in some areas of her learning. Once she did the pre-assessment, I sent the information through to her school teacher and we were able to come up with areas where my daughter is falling behind. She is excited to reach her goal by completing lessons to get points and be able to get a voucher to go shopping. At the end of the trial, my husband and I are hoping to have her continue with the tutoring!

Our experience so far with our Kinetic Education trial has been fantastic. The set up process is thorough but straightforward. The ladies I’ve dealt with so far have been lovely and friendly and so helpful. I love that there is an initial test to work out any knowledge gaps and that the program is then individually tailored to each child to help fill those gaps and then help them progress beyond them. I was able to sign up all three of my boys for the trial (9, 7 and 4) and they all love it - I don’t have to nag them to do their allotted time, they are happy to go on and really enjoy it (and that’s even without the points and prize incentives, which I only told them about several weeks into the trial ????). Overall I am really happy with Kinetic Education, I was especially happy to be chosen for the trial as it coincided with Lockdown 2.0 and a reduced school day, so I wasn’t worried they would fall behind at all.

We have just started the Kinetic Education journey, and I can say from our experiences so far I am very impressed. From the zoom meeting with Ally explaining the program, and to the chat with Bridget after my daughter completed her Pre-assessment, I can certainly see the benefits. My daughter is currently in Year 3, and after her Pre-assessment it showed clearly that in Maths she is excelling for her age, so her lessons will be targeted towards extension in this area. Looking forward to seeing the progress she makes over the trial.

So far so good, My kids are really enjoying what they are learning and doing, and our Tutor Bridget is fantastic! We also have spoken to Ally who was very helpfully at starting us up and setting everything up for us. We have just completed our first week with good results, and I love that they send me an update on how the children are going every week. So we are very happy so far!

My son (12years old/grade 7) really enjoyed the tutoring and having Bridget ring and discuss his progress each week with me. Another thing my son really enjoyed was watching his points build up for the rewards on offer, it’s a great incentive well done Kinetic.
Bridget was fantastic and very good with communication and always available to answer any questions.
Unfortunately from the first test to the final test my sons level dropped. But Bridget gave him another test to check if he was just having a bad day. But again his level was still lower than his first test. It was strange as each week he scored very well with his lessons but his final test results didn’t reflect this.
I can not fault Kinetic and the joy my son had each week with his lessons. Plus the easy of doing this on line at home and at times that suited us was a big bonus.
I am truly grateful to mouths of mums and Kinetic for this opportunity.

Overall experience is very easy and smooth. The teacher assigned kept updating progress once a week or once every 2 weeks. My son couldn't use the provided service fully, like calling in when he had questions cause the calling hours were available after school hours till dinner time. My son have other extra curricular activities most days after school and needed to do his school homework before doing additional work given by kinetics. This is often after dinner, and call in hours would have ended. Or during weekends, when call in hours were not available too. Therefore, after 3 assessments, once before tutoring started to assess his current level, and twice at the end of his 6 to 7 weeks worth of tutoring, his results remain about the same. He couldn't really advance cause there was no guidance at all, thus making the same mistakes or lack the knowledge to understand the matter on his own. We, as parents, quite often needed to be the one teaching him when a questions were really too tough for him. For English, only spelling, grammar and punctuation for comprehension English will be taught. My son struggles in written composition, and this isn't something Kinetics can teach though we've tried to work around it. They can email topics for composition writing but they weren't set up to mark and comment on the writing after. In the instructions, it will ask the child to look into researching the topic and take their time in writing out the composition in their own time. After submission, they may look into it and comment back after a week, asking the child to do more research in order to gain more knowledge into the topic (for example global warming). I feel that this approach may not be suitable for a primary school writing, but maybe better for a high school student. Overall, it was still a good experience. Kinetics do try their best to accommodate our needs, just that our son may need a different approach due to his schedule or way of learning his Maths and English.

After a rocky start my child was able to get in and do the inital test and start her tutoring. The Tutor was great in giving us feedback on areas that needed attention and after 6 weeks I can see that my child's skills have developed. It has actually taken her this long to find her own rythum with the process and she has taken ownership of it now.

Love this idea. Help your kids catch up, or indeed surpass their normal level at school. The rewards are an added bonus, makes the kids want to do more and try harder to get a reward. Nice and discreet, easy to do at home so no bullying from the other kids. Seems to be a bit of fun added to it all, which is essential in getting kids to learn. Overall, im very impressed with the programmes and more impressed with the end results

My daughter is in year 7 and when I heard that she was able to participate in this tutoring - I was thrilled! She lacked confidence when it came to Maths and always doubted herself! Kinetic was a great program for her to be involved in! It boosted her confidence. She learnt that she could do a lot of the maths tasks that she thought she couldn’t and she had wonderful tutors and help list a click or phone call away! I would highly recommend Kinetic to anyone who has a child that needs that little bit of extra help!

My child was selected to do the 6 week trial of kinetic education. The program itself is pretty straight forward and easy to use. My child was happy doing it for the 1st couple of weeks and then he was pretty much over it. There is a tutor that checks in every couple of weeks and she was lovely. However, we will not be continuing to use kinetic education. For the cost I don't think it is worth it and you are locked into a 1 year contract with them. I have used other programs in the best and seen better results.

The thing I love about kinetic education, is that it is really easy to navigate through the website. I also liked that you have lots of customization for your character although I wish it was free to change it. I also love that there are lucky draws which you can enter. However I didn't like the fact that you had to do the different tasks in the specific order instead of any order. I found the tasks a little hard to do because they kept sending harder and harder tasks.

I can honestly say the 6 weeks tutoring with Kinetic has been a great experience. Here are my thoughts
. Its been a great way to see how my son is actually progressing with maths and English. No homework policy at his school sees me a little in the dark.
. The maths was repetitious, which he needed to cement key learning concepts. He never liked getting them wrong. The little quizes also helped determine if he understood.
. He loved seeing his points add up and strived to get questions right
. I found the english a little easy at the start for him, but I spoke to his tutor and he made adjustments and made it a little harder. Again, repeatition of concepts was the perfect way to learn for him
. Tutors ring to provide an update and they are on hand if required.
. Staff are so friendly
. Reassurance and peace of mind that my son is not falling behind
. Only thing I found hard was keeping my son motivated, but that was just him as it really only involves 20 mins 3-4 times a week.
. I feel more confident my son is at the level he needs to be, but wouldnt hestitate to use Kinetic if this wasnt the case

Overall our experience has been great with kinetic educations and my children have mostly loved the learning.
Over the 6weeks I have noted a few small improvements which could help better the sessions even more.
- Not having to open a new browser to log each time as this can become annoying but also each time you go to the kinetic eduction home page a pop up chat box appears which also become annoying.
- From a younger child perspective it does not indicate what to do next a flashing button or arrow would be great.
- A speech button to read the full questions would be great as this is not available on all questions or some additional text this means a parent needs to be present for the whole lesson to assist with tricky words.
The biggest dislike of mine is that some of the content is very ‘American based’ using terms or words my children have never heard of.
A couple of my favourite features were that I was able to ask our tutor for a particular topic that my kids were doing at school or maybe struggled with and that it would not let you move on unless you showed a good understanding of a topic, this meant my children could not skip through a lesson however this could be frustrating to come children.

After 6 weeks of completing kinetic education tutoring lessons for 15 minutes per day Monday - Friday both my children have made a huge academic improvement but the biggest improvement I have seen is with confidence! I have 2 very different children and the programme has worked great for both of them in different ways which were outlined between myself and the tutor prior to learning starting. Having the lesson plan set out for the week meant they could break it up in to small manageable sessions and choose when they wanted to complete the lessons, before school, after school or even on weekends sometimes. It has been a bit of effort for both myself and my children to ensure the lessons plans are completed each week, as sometimes kids get tired or just do not want to listen to there parents, but given the improvements it was well worth it! Thank you Kinetic Education!

So far my 10yr old girl is on her 5th week of Kinetic Education. She likes the bonus points and has shown interest throughout the 6 week trial however during the first week of NSW school holidays slackened off. Today she worked on her maths lessons as she excels in English and leaves Math last. I will give more feedback after her post assessment.

They really listen to your child's need and adapt tutoring
We're nearly finished a 6 week trial and so far I cannot complain. Weekly phone calls to discuss your child's previous week that will adapt and tailor your child's next week's tutoring. They put in stretch goals where applicable and my child loves the fact that there is a rewards program.
So far I'm really happy with this tutoring program. I joined not to get my child up to speed, but to stretch her as she is already top of the class and needed pushing further, and Kinetic has done that!

‘Trust Your Intuition’: How To Advocate For Your Child In Hospital
Mother’s instinct is a funny thing. At home, we trust it without question. But put us in a hospital setting with an unwell child, surrounded by doctors, nurses and monitors, and suddenly we start doubting ourselves.
What if I’m overreacting? What if I’ve got it wrong?
So we stay quiet, even when we know something just isn’t right with our child. I’ve been there myself – when my usually ‘tough’ son was doubled over with stomach pain. I was told in the emergency department that it probably wasn’t his appendix. But I knew he wouldn’t have begged me to take him to hospital unless it was serious. Because I know him better than anyone. Turns out, it was appendicitis.
It’s a really common place for parents to land. You’re grateful for the care your child is getting, but at the same time, you feel this huge responsibility to speak up if something doesn’t feel right.
Here’s the thing though: that instinct you’re feeling? It matters more than you might think.
Why your gut feeling matters more than you realise
According to Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital, Leticia Jackson, parents bring something to the hospital that no test or machine ever could.
“Parents often say they ‘just know’ when something isn’t quite right with their child, and in a hospital, that gut feeling is incredibly valuable,” she explains.
Leticia Jackson, Paediatric Nurse Unit Manager, Canterbury Hospital
While medical teams rely on observations, tests and equipment, parents know the little details. The way your child usually smiles. How they react when they’re tired. What’s normal for them.
So when something feels “off”, even if everything looks okay on paper, it can actually be an early warning sign.
“When parents trust those instincts and speak up, this creates a powerful partnership that can sometimes catch a problem before it becomes an emergency,” Leticia says.
Worried about speaking up? You’re not alone
A lot of parents hesitate about advocating for their child.
You don’t want to come across as difficult. You don’t want to question the people caring for your child. And sometimes, you just don’t feel confident enough to push the issue.
Leticia gets it.
“It is completely understandable for parents to feel hesitant,” she says. “No one wants to be seen as difficult or to second-guess the hardworking people caring for their child.”
But here’s a helpful way to look at it: you’re not challenging the medical team, you’re helping them.
Parents are the constant. Staff change shifts, care for multiple patients, and rely on snapshots of information. You’re there the whole time, noticing the subtle changes.
“Our medical team doesn’t view a concerned parent as overreactive, but as a partner,” Leticia explains. “Your voice matters.”
Remember, we know our children better than anyone.
What to do if you’re worried: the Raise It process
If you’re in a NSW public hospital or health service and you’re worried about you or your child’s condition getting worse, there is a clear process you can follow called Raise It.
Raise It is designed to help patients, carers and family members get help fast if they’re worried about a change in their loved one’s condition.
Here’s how it works:
Talk: Start by speaking to a nurse, midwife, doctor or health worker about your concerns.
Ask: Still worried? Ask to speak to the nurse or midwife in charge and request a Clinical Review.
Call: If you’re still concerned, you can escalate further using the Raise It process to get urgent attention from a senior health worker.
You don’t need medical knowledge. You don’t need to be certain. If you feel something isn’t right, or your child is getting worse, Raise It. You just need to speak up.
What should you actually look out for?
Sometimes it’s not one big, obvious sign. It can be small, subtle changes that just don’t sit right.
Things like:
Changes in breathing (fast, laboured or noisy)
Skin looking pale, mottled, or developing unusual rashes
Your child being unusually drowsy, floppy, or hard to wake
Confusion or behaviour that’s out of character
Pain that isn’t improving with treatment
Or simply that feeling that your child is getting worse
And sometimes, it’s just that gut feeling you can’t explain.
That’s enough.
“You are helping us, not bothering us”
If there’s one message Leticia wants parents to take away, it’s that you aren’t bothering the medical team, you’re helping them.
“In my years as a Nurse Unit Manager, I can say with absolute certainty that many critical changes in a child’s condition have been identified first by a parent. While our clinical staff are highly skilled at performing regular observations and interpreting data, parents are the only constant presence who truly know their child’s baseline behaviour, personality, and what is normal for them.
“I have seen numerous instances where a parent’s insistence that their child is “just not themselves” – despite vital signs appearing relatively stable – has prompted a deeper clinical review that uncovered everything from early signs of sepsis to a life-threatening respiratory crisis.”
The Raise It process exists because healthcare teams know how important parents are in keeping children safe.
“Speaking up doesn’t mean you don’t trust the team,” she says. “It means you’re partnering with us to make sure nothing gets missed.”
And if you’re still worried about being judged?
“Whether your concern turns out to be something or nothing, your instinct to raise it is always valid.”
This is such an important issue to raise, and no one should ever feel ashamed, nervous or that they are being OTT for advocating for their kids, themselves or loves ones in hospital. In QLD we have Ryan’s Rule. A three step process where your concern will be escalated if they believe the patients condition isn’t improving or is worsening.
I have never been afraid to advocate for my children and partner and extended family and also friends. It is so important to listen and to trust intuition. When people have not listened, I have persevered and kept on with insisting on care and making sure they truly listened and took action.

My child was selected to do the 6 week trial of kinetic education. The program itself is pretty straight forward and easy to use. My child was happy doing it for the 1st couple of weeks and then he was pretty much over it. There is a tutor that checks in every couple of weeks and she was lovely. However, we will not be continuing to use kinetic education. For the cost I don't think it is worth it and you are locked into a 1 year contract with them. I have used other programs in the best and seen better results.

Brilliant!
An easy set up, the kids responded great to the program and the incentives.
The tutors checked in every week and were open to calls when you wanted.
It was a great experience being able to see where my kids were at in every step.
Having both improve by 10-20% in just 6 weeks and being able to visually show them was very encouraging for them!
The program was easy enough to use that both my 9 year old and my very uninterested in tech 6 year old were able to use it no problem.

Great 6 weeks of learning
. Its been a great way to see how my son is actually progressing with maths and English. No homework policy at his school sees me a little in the dark.
. The maths was repetitious, which he needed to cement key learning concepts. He never liked getting them wrong. The little quizes also helped determine if he understood.
. He loved seeing his points add up and strived to get questions right
. I found the english a little easy at the start for him, but I spoke to his tutor and he made adjustments and made it a little harder. Again, repeatition of concepts was the perfect way to learn for him
. Tutors ring to provide an update and they are on hand if required.
. Staff are so friendly
. Reassurance and peace of mind that my son is not falling behind
. Only thing I found hard was keeping my son motivated, but that was just him as it really only involves 20 mins 3-4 times a week.
. I feel more confident my son is at the level he needs to be, but wouldnt hestitate to use Kinetic if this wasnt the case

Some American Content
Over the 6weeks I have noted a few small improvements which could help better the sessions even more.
- Not having to open a new browser to log each time as this can become annoying but also each time you go to the kinetic eduction home page a pop up chat box appears which also become annoying.
- From a younger child perspective it does not indicate what to do next a flashing button or arrow would be great.
- A speech button to read the full questions would be great as this is not available on all questions or some additional text this means a parent needs to be present for the whole lesson to assist with tricky words.
The biggest dislike of mine is that some of the content is very ‘American based’ using terms or words my children have never heard of.
A couple of my favourite features were that I was able to ask our tutor for a particular topic that my kids were doing at school or maybe struggled with and that it would not let you move on unless you showed a good understanding of a topic, this meant my children could not skip through a lesson however this could be frustrating to come children.

They really listen to your child's need and adapt tutoring
So far I'm really happy with this tutoring program. I joined not to get my child up to speed, but to stretch her as she is already top of the class and needed pushing further, and Kinetic has done that!

Success in the Classroom !
From the first moment I spoke with Kinetic Education I was so relieved with just how easy, confident and streamlined the whole process was. They listened to my concerns for both of my children and helped me come-up with a weekly personalised learning program that fitted into their school commitments as well as their after school extracurricular activities. Professional, positive, a tailored tutoring service that provides a fun and engaging learning experience that actually makes learning fun and not a chore. Well done Kinetic Education!
