We help students feel capable and confident that they can overcome difficulties with the mathematical
or scientific material and be able to accomplish their goals.
We have a series of presentations that can help students understand classroom concepts they have missed quickly from time to time.
It is difficult to use one hour to teach lessons and to solve problems in one session. We frequently work on these presentations in the background to make them shorter and more efficient, and we provide free access to such resources.
We may ask the student to go over the presentation at home prior to the lesson, or during the lesson if it impedes the ability of the student to understand and answer the homework questions.
Our focus is on homework and solving problems because that is where we can get the most impact on grades.
Upfront consultation
We typically discuss the student's learning style and academic goals with the parents, for older students we can involve them as well. This upfront consultation is free.
Reporting to parents
Feedback provided to parents after each lesson include:
- What the student worked on.
- Which concepts the student understood or struggled with.
- What the tutor intends to work on next.
- Any practice recommended between lessons.
- Comments about progress over several weeks when applicable.
Cancellations
We require 24 hours' notice to cancel an already scheduled lesson, other than that you can cancel your overall tutoring plans any time.
No contract
We have no contract on the number of tutoring sessions you should take. You suggest the hours, but we expect you to honor your suggested schedule if we are to reserve the day(s) of the week you have chosen.
If you do not require us to reserve the day of the week for you, you can try for an available tutor at any time you wish, and a tutor may or may not be able to accommodate at that time, since neither party is locked into a commitment. We advise against this option, on-demand lessons are sudden and very difficult to accommodate, especially during high demand times such as around exam season.
We prioritize students that schedule tutoring on a weekly basis and attend consistently. If your student is in a competitive program we highly recommend to reserve and stay with a fixed schedule.
Cancellation of an already scheduled session needs at least 24 hours' notice.
