The Best Tutoring in Gaithersburg, MD

We start by learning each student’s current classes, upcoming units, and teacher expectations. Tutors plan sessions to match Montgomery County Public Schools pacing and standards so students practice the same skills they will see in class and on school assessments. With only about 29% of Gaithersburg public school students proficient in math and schools like Gaithersburg Elementary around 15%, alignment matters. We focus on the exact objectives students need for their next quiz, project, or exam, and we adjust as teachers move through the curriculum.

We support learners from elementary school through high school and adult education. Common areas include:
– Math: elementary math, pre algebra, Algebra 1 and 2, geometry, precalculus, calculus, statistics
– English and reading: phonics, reading comprehension, grammar, writing, research and citation
– Science: elementary science, biology, chemistry, physics, environmental science
– Study skills: organization, time management, planning through our X-Skills approach
– Test prep: SAT, ACT, PSAT, and AP subjects
If your student has a specific course or goal, we personalize the plan to match it.

Sessions include step-by-step modeling, guided practice on current classwork, and spiral review to close gaps.

This is effective for common MCPS challenges like linear equations, factoring, functions, geometry proofs, and data analysis.

Yes. We regularly work with students who have IEPs and 504 plans.

We also coach executive functioning skills like organization, planning, and task initiation so students can manage assignments and prepare for tests with less stress. Families remain involved in setting goals and reviewing progress.

After each session, families receive a brief report that explains what was covered, how the student performed, and what is next. We set clear goals, check progress against class grades and teacher feedback, and adjust the plan when needed. You will always know what we are working on and why. This transparency helps students stay accountable and helps families see measurable growth.

Tutors are vetted for subject expertise, teaching skill, and the ability to connect with students. Many have advanced coursework in their subjects and classroom or tutoring experience. We match each student with a tutor based on personality fit, learning style, and goals. Our Tutor Fit Guarantee means we will adjust the match or plan if it is not the right fit.
