Teaching Philosophy:

The Kip McGrath Centre, on Waiheke Island, provides a positive and supportive learning environment that promotes self esteem, boosts every child’s confidence and helps them achieve their personal best.

What We Do

Kip McGrath is an internationally trusted name in the field of private tutoring and supplementary education, with over 680 franchises in 20 countries.

Our Education Centre delivers the following individually tailored programs, catering for both remedial and extension courses.

 
  • Free educational assessment for all new students
  • An 80 minute session featuring a positive and fun learning environment
  • Individual educational programs that get the best from every child
  • Progress is always at the students’ own pace.
  • As they achieve and succeed they find learning both rewarding and fun.
  • After school sessions to suit busy schedules
  • No up-front fees: simply pay as you go.
  • We can fit students who go to school in Auckland and have time constraints around ferry commuting.
  • We support students school needs by direct communication with school class teachers through email.

Each child is given a free assessment prior to starting, parents concerns are established and the results of the assessments are discussed in confidence.

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 experience where children can feel comfortable and happy.

Progress is carefully monitored and students are regularly re-assessed. Each child learns at their own pace, they gain the confidence they need to make real progress and achieve their full potential. As they achieve and succeed they find learning both rewarding and fun.
