Online and In-person Tutoring Services for Students Who Need Extra Help

Subject-specific Tutoring

If your student needs a little extra help mastering concepts in a specific subject, we offer one-on-one tutoring in-person or online.

How Our Tutoring Program Works:

  1. At the first session, parents will complete forms (if they haven’t been completed already). 

  2. We will match your student up with a learning coach who suits their learning style and can provide the appropriate subject support.

  3. If requested, your student’s learning coach will reach out to your student’s teacher to discuss assignments, how certain material should be taught, and what your student needs to know for school. 

  4. Your student’s learning coach will put together a plan of action on how to help your student achieve certain learning goals. 

  5. During each session, the learning coach will help your student through the material and assist with any school-related assignments and questions. 

  6. Students get to choose a prize/reward if certain milestones are met.

  7. Learning coach provides parent with a brief report of how session went.
