If you have a specific course or goal, we will recommend a tutor with the right subject background and teaching style for your student.

It starts with a free consultation. We learn about your child’s goals, strengths, schedule, and learning style. Then we select a tutor based on subject expertise, teaching approach, and personality fit. All tutors are thoroughly vetted and background checked. If the match is not the right fit, our Tutor Fit Guarantee means we will adjust the plan or provide a different tutor. The goal is a tutor your child connects with and looks forward to seeing.

Yes. You can choose in-home sessions across Jennings Lodge, Oregon City, Milwaukie, Gladstone, Oak Grove, Oatfield, Lake Oswego, West Linn, Happy Valley, and nearby communities, or meet online. Online sessions are recorded so students can rewatch before quizzes and exams. Sessions are one-to-one, scheduled around your family’s routine, and focused on current classwork plus long-term skill building. Many families blend in-home and online for flexibility.

After every session, you receive a written summary with what was covered, wins, and next steps. We track goals like improved quiz scores, stronger homework completion, or growth in X-Skills such as organization and time management. We check in with you regularly and adjust the plan as your child’s needs change. One local grandparent shared that after working with Geneva, her grandson rose to the top of his class and earned a best reader award. Clear communication and steady practice make that kind of progress possible.

Yes. We personalize pace, materials, and strategies for students with learning differences. With your permission, we align tutoring to your child’s IEP or 504 plan and coordinate with teachers. Our tutors use structured routines, multisensory strategies, and frequent check-ins to help students build confidence while meeting classroom expectations. The aim is a calm, supportive environment where your child can learn and feel successful.

We start by identifying the exact skills that need attention through a short skills review and a look at recent assignments and tests. Then we:
– Rebuild foundations such as fractions, equations, and problem-solving steps
– Teach how to show work, check answers, and manage time on tests
– Connect concepts to real-world examples to boost understanding
– Provide targeted practice and spaced review so learning sticks
– Build study routines using X-Skills for organization and planning
Families in the area often see stronger confidence and steadier grades when we pair concept teaching with executive function coaching.

The first step is a free consultation so we can learn about your goals and recommend a plan. After the consult, we match your child with a tutor and schedule the first session. Start time depends on the subject and your preferred schedule, but many families begin quickly. To book a tutor, call us at our number or click to find tutoring near you.
