The Best Tutoring in Aurora

We are local, experienced, and personal. Tutor Doctor Denver has supported thousands of Denver metro families since 2009 and is locally owned by Peggy Santi, a retired aerospace engineer and parent of two students in our public schools. Our one-to-one approach is designed for Aurora students in Aurora Public Schools and Cherry Creek School District, where less than 35% of elementary and middle school students meet grade-level math standards. We match each student with a tutor who fits their learning style and personality, offer in-home or online sessions, and send updates after every session. Families count on our Tutor Fit Guarantee, flexible scheduling, and a confidence-first approach that builds strong study habits through our executive skills coaching. A local parent even shared that their child’s SAT score improved by 400 points with our personalized plan.

We support learners of all ages. That includes K to 12, college, and adult learners. Core subjects include math, English, reading and writing, science, and foreign languages. In math, we cover everything from number sense and pre-algebra to algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, and statistics. In science, we support biology, chemistry, physics, and earth science. We also offer academic coaching for organization, time management, study skills, and homework routines. For exams, we help with CMAS, PSAT, SAT, ACT, and AP courses, as well as IB support when needed.

We start with your student’s actual coursework and goals. During your free consultation, we review syllabi, assignments, rubrics, and district standards tied to the Colorado Academic Standards. Tutors plan sessions around current units, upcoming tests, and known learning gaps. With your permission, we can coordinate with your child’s teacher. We track progress with regular session reports and adjust the plan as classes move forward. Our approach helps students stay on pace with APS and Cherry Creek timelines while building the skills and confidence they need to perform on CMAS and classroom assessments.

We begin with a free consultation to learn about your student’s goals, learning style, school schedule, and personality. We then match your student with a tutor who has the right subject expertise and a compatible teaching style. Your family receives a clear plan with goals and scheduling options. If the fit is not right, our Tutor Fit Guarantee means we will adjust the plan or match a different tutor. Our goal is to make learning personal, consistent, and effective from the very first sessions.

Yes. We work with students who learn in many different ways. With your guidance, we align our tutoring to IEP or 504 goals and use strategies that fit your child’s needs. This can include breaking tasks into steps, using multi-sensory techniques, building routines, and practicing self-advocacy. We also coach executive skills such as organization, planning, prioritization, and time management through our X-Skills program. Our focus is a calm, consistent approach that builds confidence and steady progress.

You will get regular session reports that summarize what was covered, how your student performed, and what is next. We set measurable goals together and check in on grades, quiz and test scores, and study habits. For online tutoring, recorded sessions are available for review. We also use practice assessments for subjects like math and reading and adjust the plan when school pacing changes. If something is not working, we fix it quickly so your student stays on track.

Yes. We build custom test prep plans for CMAS, PSAT, SAT, ACT, and AP courses. Plans include a baseline diagnostic, targeted content review, strategy coaching, and timed practice. We pay close attention to Aurora district pacing so prep supports current classes. Results depend on each student’s starting point, goals, and consistency. Many families report strong growth, including one Aurora family who shared a 400-point SAT improvement after working with us. We will review your goals during a free consultation and build a plan that makes sense for your timeline.
