Yes. We align our support to the curriculum, pacing, and classroom expectations in Granite School District and Salt Lake City School District. We review current class topics, teacher guidelines, and upcoming tests or projects, then plan sessions to reinforce what is happening in school. We can also support students who attend Murray City, Canyons, and Jordan school districts. This local alignment helps students in neighborhoods like Sugar House, Liberty Wells, Ballpark, Central City, and Glendale stay on track with their classes.

We start with a free consultation where we learn about your student’s goals, strengths, challenges, schedule, and learning style. We then select a tutor with the right subject expertise and a personality your child will connect with. After sessions begin, we check in and share reports so you can see progress. If something is not the right fit, our Tutor Fit Guarantee means we will adjust. A parent from the area shared, ”My son’s college math class wasn’t going very well and Charlotte helped turn that around.”
