Neurodiversity

For some children, especially those who are neurodivergent, learning can feel harder or confusing when they’re expected to keep up with the same pace and learning style as everyone else, rather than being supported in the way they learn best.

While traditional classrooms can sometimes be challenging, neurodivergent children often bring incredible strengths with them, including creativity, persistence, problem-solving skills, and unique ways of thinking.

At Kinetic Education, we know every child learns differently. That’s why we take the time to understand your child and adapt learning to suit their needs, helping them feel confident and supported.

Understanding Neurodiversity

Neurodiversity describes the natural differences in how children’s brains develop and process information. It isn’t a flaw, and it doesn’t need to be “fixed.” It simply means some children may learn, focus, communicate, or solve problems in ways that look different from what’s typically expected.

Neurodivergence can show up in different ways, including:

Every family’s journey looks different. Your family may be in the process of exploring a diagnosis, may already have a formal diagnosis, or may not have one at all. What matters most is responding to and supporting your child’s learning right now. With the right support, children can feel more confident in the classroom.

How Kinetic Education Supports Neurodivergent Learners

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.
Our approach supports neurodivergent children by focusing on:

Learning that’s personalised to your child’s needs

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.

Short, supportive lessons that feel achievable

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.

Tools that support how your child learns

Lessons use a mix of visuals, audio, interactive activities, and guided practice to support understanding across Maths and English.

Tutor support that’s steady and responsive

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.

A focus on confidence, not perfection

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.

Clear weekly updates for families

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.

Support for a wide range of learning needs

We support many families with neurodivergent children, including those with:

  • Dyslexia , which can affect reading, spelling, and written language
  • ADHD or ADD, which can impact focus, organisation, and task completion
  • Autism, which may involve differences in communication, processing, or sensory needs
  • Dyscalculia, which can make understanding numbers and maths concepts more difficult
  • Dysgraphia, which can affect handwriting and written expression
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."

Common Questions

Do we need a diagnosis to get started?

No. Many families begin support before a formal diagnosis, or without one at all. We focus on how your child learns, not labels.

Is this a replacement for therapy or school support?

No. We provide educational support that complements school learning.

What if my child has more than one learning challenge?

That’s very common. Our personalised approach supports overlapping needs and adapts as we learn more about your child.

Will my child feel overwhelmed learning online?

Most neurodivergent children find our approach less overwhelming than traditional learning as our lessons are short, structured, and flexible.
