Our approach is to be as flexible as possible. We recommend coordinating sessions directly with tutors on a week-to-week basis, advocating for proactive and consistent communication to ensure that student needs are met, while at the same time accommodating changing and busy schedules. If you have a consistent timeframe in mind, we are happy to coordinate that also.

We’d be able to meet with you in person wherever you’d like, whether it be a library, your home, a local coffee shop, or online through our digital whiteboard, where we annotate documents and dialogue with students in real-time, just like in person.

Our approach is to be as flexible as possible. Usually, sessions are around 1 hour, but can vary based on student needs for that session. If students need more or less time with their tutor, we are happy to accommodate.

Yes! We are most available to tutor over the summer and have tutored students with a variety of goals, including students seeking accelerated studies to progress to their next level math class, students seeking remediation to get back on track with proficiency, and students who are dedicated to completing as much SAT/ACT test prep as possible.

We value the time and dedication of both our tutors and clients. In order to ensure a fair and efficient service, we have established the following no show & late cancellation policy: No-Show Policy: If a client fails to show up for a scheduled tutoring session without providing any prior notice, the client will be charged in full for the session. This policy is in place to compensate our tutors for their time and effort in traveling to meet the client. Cancellation within 24 Hours: If a client wishes to cancel a tutoring session, they must provide a minimum of 24 hours' notice prior to the scheduled start time of the session. In such cases, the client will be charged for half of the session fee. This policy acknowledges the effort made by our tutors in preparing for the session and ensures a fair compensation for their time. Exceptions: Emergencies We understand that emergencies can occur, and we will evaluate each case on an individual basis. If a cancellation is due to an unforeseen emergency, we may waive the cancellation fee. Clients are asked to inform us about the emergency as soon as possible. Tutors' Availability In cases where a tutor becomes unavailable due to unforeseen circumstances, such as illness or other emergencies, we will make every effort to reschedule the session at a mutually convenient time or provide a replacement tutor. No cancellation fee will be charged to the client in such situations. Communication and Rescheduling: Clients are encouraged to communicate any changes or cancellations as soon as they become aware of them. It is important to notify us via phone or email to ensure proper rescheduling or cancellation of the session.

Spanish 1 through AP Spanish We are also versed in teaching students fundamental academic habits like organization, time management, and how to study, all while providing mentoring and general homework help.

Because of the dynamic nature of tutoring, each session is customized to meet your specific needs for that meeting. The best way to get an idea of what tutoring sessions will be like is to try us out by signing up for a Trial Session. Generally, a typical session usually begins with a review of the homework assigned in the previous lesson, before moving on to modeling of new techniques and problem types by the tutor. The student is then expected to apply the new techniques to questions with the help of the tutor and to gain further practice through the completion of problem sets assigned for homework as necessary.

We use a variety of materials in tutoring sessions. For standardized tests there is a strong focus on using actual problems from previous exams that have been released by the test makers. Your tutor will work with you to determine which materials are most appropriate for your situation at the trial session and will provide additional materials as needed throughout your tutoring program, though for subject specific tutoring we recommend leveraging the resources made available to students from their teacher and school.

Yes! Group tutoring is available for a discounted rate. Let us know who you want to work with and we can coordinate to make it happen.

Our goal is to ensure that you will be able to work with a single tutor that specializes in your instructional needs for the duration of your tutoring program. While you may choose to vary the days and times of your lessons each week, your meeting location, expected schedule, and academic needs are the most important factors in the matching process. Additionally, since students and tutors spend a great deal of time together, it is very important that they get along! In addition to being great instructors, our tutors are an exceptionally well-rounded group of individuals with a diverse set of backgrounds and interests. We do our best to pair each student with a tutor who shares their interests and has a teaching style that is right for them. We do our best to accommodate requests if the requested tutor is available and is the right fit for your situation.

We are locally based and pride ourselves on being accommodating, relationship driven, and excellent. Whatever parameters you set for your optimal tutoring scenario, we work to make it happen. We want to know your academic needs so we can best invest our efforts to help you meet your goals, whatever they may be.

Due to our careful matching process, we rarely receive requests from students to switch tutors. However, students are permitted to request a new tutor tutor for any reason.
