The Best Tutoring in Clifton Heights, PA

We start with a free consultation to learn about your goals, school demands, and your child’s learning style. Then we create a customized plan and match your student with a tutor based on subject expertise, personality, and fit. Sessions can be in your home in Clifton Heights or nearby neighborhoods like Aldan, Drexel Hill, Lansdowne, Primos, Secane, and Upper Darby, or online. After each session, you receive a detailed progress report. Start times vary based on availability and your schedule. We will work with you to begin as soon as possible.

Yes. We align sessions to Pennsylvania standards and to local coursework from Upper Darby School District, William Penn School District, Southeast Delco, Ridley, Haverford Township, and Springfield. Tutors review current units, teacher rubrics, and upcoming assessments to keep lessons on track with what is taught in class. This helps students meet classroom expectations while filling skill gaps and building confidence.

We support all ages, from elementary through adult learners. Subjects include math (foundations, pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, pre-calc, calculus, statistics), English and writing, reading comprehension, science (biology, chemistry, physics), social studies, and world languages. We also help with test preparation, including SAT, ACT, AP exams, and placement tests like CLEP. A local parent shared that their college student, who disliked math, worked with Michael and then passed the CLEP math exam. We also coach study skills and executive functioning to build organization, planning, and time management.

Look for signs like ongoing homework struggles, lower quiz and test scores, missed deadlines, or growing frustration. Local data shows less than 40 percent of students in the Clifton Heights area reach math proficiency and the district has a 1.5-star rating. Nationally, only 36 percent of fourth graders are proficient in math. If any of this sounds familiar, a one-to-one plan can help your child catch up, stay motivated, and rebuild confidence. We offer a free consultation to talk through next steps.

Yes. We work with students who have a wide range of learning differences. We coordinate with IEPs and 504 plans and tailor strategies to the student. Our X-Skills program builds organization, planning, time management, prioritization, and goal setting. For some students, we may recommend the MindPrint Learning Assessment to better understand how they process information and to personalize strategies that stick.

You receive regular updates and a session report after each lesson that outlines what was covered, how your student did, and what is coming next. We set clear goals, monitor class grades and teacher feedback when available, and adjust the plan as needed. If the tutor match or approach is not working, we will make changes to keep your student moving forward.

We offer in-home and online sessions, including after-school and weekends. Online sessions are recorded so students can rewatch explanations before quizzes and exams.
