Kip McGrath Stonefields

Kip McGrath Stonefields provides English and maths tutoring for children from pre-school through to secondary school, operating locally on Lunn Avenue as part of a tutoring network with more than 45 years of experience and over 65 centres across New Zealand.

What Kip McGrath Stonefields offers local families

The centre focuses on English, reading, spelling, comprehension and maths for children from Year 1 to Year 13, with every new student starting with a free initial assessment to identify strengths and learning gaps before a tailored programme is put together. Kip McGrath Stonefields also prepares students for NCEA, Cambridge, Grammar School and Private Entrance exams, giving families a local option for exam specific support rather than only general catch up tuition.

A distinctive feature of the centre is its additional support for children with Dyslexia, ADHD, Autism, Asperger’s and other learning difficulties, run alongside its standard English and maths programmes. This makes Kip McGrath Stonefields relevant not only to families wanting general academic support but also to those whose child has a diagnosed or suspected learning difference and needs a more individually tailored approach.

All tutors are qualified teachers, and families receive ongoing progress reports and regular feedback so parents can track how their child is developing over time rather than waiting until the end of a term to see results. The centre also offers an online tutoring platform for families who prefer live, interactive lessons from home rather than an in-person visit.

Booking with Kip McGrath Stonefields

Families can book a free assessment directly through the Kip McGrath website or by contacting the centre, with sessions typically held once a week and focused on one subject per session for most students. The centre serves families across Stonefields and the wider surrounding area, including Remuera.

Given its position on Lunn Avenue within the same retail cluster as several other Mount Wellington businesses, families can combine a tutoring session with other errands in the area during the same visit.
