The Centrre has a positive reputation in the local area for providing ‘excellent tutoring'. The centre is now conveniently located above the shops at Davies corner on Hukanui Rd.In 2010 Paul and Rosemary bought the Centre from Alison Trenwith who had run it fifteen years.

Paul has had 30 years of primary teaching experience behind him. He has taught in all areas of the school but has most experience in the year 7 & 8 level.in 2006 he retrained as a Reading Recovery Teacher. This complements his vast knowledge in the teaching of English, especially to those who are struggling.

What We Do
Kip McGrath Education has an internationally trusted name in the field of private tutoring centres and supplementary education, with over
680 franchises in 20 countries.
We are catering for everyone from pre-schoolers to NCEA students. Our centres' tutoring programs offer advanced learning strategies, specialist learning skills for those needing a little extra help and motivation to succeed. Progress is always at the students' own pace and fun is an essential part of our formula. |
 |
All Kip McGrath Centres use a tutorial system based on a series of computer and mp3 based programmes, integrated with structured worksheets and textbooks. The programmes have been successful in helping children overcome problems in spelling, reading, writing and Mathematics. The pupils follow individualised learning programmes. Some of the work is aimed at a specific exam, for example; NCEA or Cambridge
 |
The Centre caters for both primary and secondary level children with a spectrum of abilities. Adults sometimes also enrol for brushing up for tests such as Police and firemen exams or general confidence. Some of our students are high achievers and we challenge them even further with their schoolwork. Some simply need support, confidence and enthusiasm to learn. Some are those ‘invisible’ students in a class, not poor enough to get extra support and not able enough to get extended. |
All Kip McGrath material is graded so that progress is constant and accelerated. Children catch up as quickly as possible. The programmes are designed to give the children the motivation to succeed with challenging but attainable goals.
- They work individually at their own pace and failure is eliminated.
- As they achieve and succeed they find it both rewarding and fun.
Each child is given a free assessment prior to starting, parents concerns are established and the results of the assessments are discussed confidentially.
Following enrolment each student attends the centre once a week for 80 minutes, and follows their own individual programme. We aim to provide a relaxed, friendly and motivating learning environment where children feel comfortable and happy. Progress is carefully monitored and students are regularly re-assessed. Each child learns at their own pace and our aim is to give them the confidence they need to make real progress and achieve their full potential. |

Fees are paid on a weekly or termly basis. Students are provided with a computer to assist with their learning.
