FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHAT GRADES DO YOU TUTOR?
We tutor students in both elementary and middle school between the ages of 8 - 13.
HOW CAN I TELL IF MY CHILD NEEDS TUTORING?
Tutoring is beneficial for students who are struggling as well as students who are seeking a challenge. Clear signs which indicate that your child needs tutoring are: low or slipping grades, poor time management, negative feelings towards school work or a change in self-confidence. On the other hand, your child may have top notch grades, yet display signs that they are bored in their classes, this could mean the content is too easy for them, in this case challenging tutoring sessions would be extremely beneficial.
HOW DO YOU ASSESS MY CHILD'S ACADEMIC NEEDS?
Firstly, we work with you during our consultation meeting to identify any areas for which you need support or would like to be challenged and explore. We can run diagnostic assessments which will enable us to understand why your child may be underperforming within a class or within a specific concept. In turn, we can identify which teaching strategies will work best for your individual child to enhance their learning.
HOW LONG IS A CLASS?
In general, most classes run for 1 hour per student. However, some families who book bundles of lessons will block out chunks of time per week to work towards their academic goals.
WHAT DO YOU CHARGE PER HOUR
We understand that every family is unique, and so are their needs. That's why we offer personalized pricing tailored to your family's specific requirements. In general, by purchasing bundles of lessons you can save on the hourly rate!
WHERE DO THE LESSONS TAKE PLACE?
All of our lessons are online and take place in the comfort of your own home - or wherever you are, as long as you have strong internet connection, of course! Our classes are conducted using a third party platform, The Lesson Space.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
1. First time clients book a free online consultation. Once you schedule your time with us, we get the ball rolling! We will send you a link for your consultation as well as a family information form and student interest survey. These forms are to be filled out prior to your online consultation.
2. We meet online through the link we sent you for your consultation. This is a great time for us to meet and discuss your needs and wants from our tutoring service. During this time, you can feel free to share report cards, tests, school work, or teacher contact information. During our consultation we will also introduce you to our learning platform and explain how classes will be delivered.
3. If you choose to move forward with classes after our consultation, we will provide diagnostic assessments for your child to complete before their first class. Alternatively, for a fee, you can schedule a time with us and we can run the diagnostic assessments with them online.
4. We work with you to book a class or classes that fit your schedule. Whether morning or night, we are here to help! Once we schedule your class or classes you will be sent an invoice for your services. When your invoice is paid we use the assessment information from the diagnostic to identify which topics need to be addressed in our tutoring sessions to help your child within their learning. We customise their learning plan with care and attention.
5. We meet online for the lesson. Students should come prepared with any materials requested by the tutor.
6. You will receive personal feedback based upon how your student performed within the lesson as well as next steps.
