Online tutoring offered!

Today’s students live in a world busier than ever before. Often, they are at school for longer periods of time, involved in before and after school activities, sports, and clubs. Even off campus, students participate in community service, travel sports leagues, church retreats, and scout trips, to name a few.  Not to mention time spent with friends and family! This leaves precious little time to do homework and get academic help when they are struggling. It may not be convenient to travel to a tutor’s office to get the help they need.

That’s where online tutoring can be invaluable.  It is convenient, saves travel time and money, and connects professionals with students in a way that is familiar. Students use this type of technology almost all of the time now, both in and out of school.  Platforms like Schoology, Canvas, Blackboard, and Google Drive make work easily accessible and readily shareable. Our tutors work with students via Zoom, FaceTime, Skype, Google Hangout, Microsoft Teams, or Discord in order to have digital “face-to-face” time with them.  This will not feel like just another Zoom class to which students grew accustomed during the pandemic. Our tutors have effective ways of engaging students online, screen-sharing so they can work collaboratively, and make sure it is a productive session well spent. As always, every session is one-on-one and individualized to a student’s specific needs.

Our tutors can offer assistance in many ways.  For instance, for students with executive function difficulties, tutors can help with organization, managing their time wisely, planning projects well, studying effectively, and tuning out the stimulation at home. Meeting times can be flexible so that if students need a brief check-in with the tutor to answer questions or make sure all assignments are ready to be turned in, they can easily do so from the comfort of their homes. Give us a call today to discuss how online tutoring could help your child.
