The Best Tutoring in Alexandria

We start with a free consultation to learn about your student’s goals, learning style, school coursework, and personality. Then we recommend a one-to-one tutor who fits your child academically and personally, and who understands local schools like Alexandria City Public Schools, Fairfax County Public Schools, and Arlington Public Schools. Sessions can be in-home or online. You will receive our Tutor Fit Guarantee, which means we will adjust the plan or tutor if needed. To get started, call (561) 423-1051 or request a consultation on this page.

Yes. We tailor tutoring to your child’s class, teacher expectations, and district standards across ACPS, FCPS, and APS. We stay current on pacing guides and major assessments so sessions reinforce what is happening in class. In Alexandria, only about 61% of elementary students met reading and math benchmarks in recent reporting, so we focus on filling skill gaps, strengthening fundamentals, and building confidence in core subjects. With your permission, we also collaborate with teachers to support IEP or classroom goals.

We support students from elementary through adult learners in all core subjects, including:
– Math from number sense through advanced algebra, calculus, and statistics
– Reading, writing, and English, including essay structure and research skills
– Sciences such as biology, chemistry, and physics
– Study skills and organization through our X-Skills program
We also offer test preparation for SAT, ACT, PSAT, and AP Exams, as well as help with classroom unit tests and major projects. Our online option records every session, so students can rewatch explanations before quizzes and exams.

Yes. Our one-to-one model and X-Skills approach are ideal for students with IEPs, 504 plans, ADHD, dyslexia, autism spectrum, anxiety, or executive functioning challenges. We align our plan to existing accommodations and use strategies like multisensory instruction, chunked tasks, visual supports, and routine checklists. Alexandria serves many bilingual families, and our tutors adjust pacing and vocabulary to support English Learners while building academic language and confidence.

You receive session reports after every meeting that explain what was covered, wins, and next steps. We set clear goals, monitor assignments and grades, and share adjustments to the plan as needed. For online sessions, recordings let students review explanations. In test prep, we use practice sections to measure growth and focus instruction. A local family shared that their student gained almost 400 points from first SAT practice to test day after structured weekly support and targeted practice.

We tutor in-home across Alexandria and nearby communities, including Old Town, Del Ray, West End, Carlyle and Eisenhower, North Ridge, Rosemont, Seminary Hill, Parkfairfax, Kingstowne, Franconia, Rose Hill, Mount Vernon, Fort Hunt, Alexandria West, Aurora Highlands, and Springfield. We also tutor online for added flexibility and continuity when travel, weather, or activities make it hard to meet in person. Session timing and frequency depend on your goals and schedule.

Common signs include unfinished homework, frustration with specific skills, slipping grades, or low confidence. Given that many local students are still catching up in reading and math, early support helps prevent small gaps from becoming larger ones. If your child is facing a big transition or upcoming exams, starting sooner gives time to build skills and reduce stress. We will assess needs during your free consultation and recommend a plan that fits your family.
