Top-Rated Elementary & Middle School Tutoring In Santa Monica

Is your child in elementary or middle school finding it hard to stay on track academically? Are you noticing their motivation or self-confidence beginning to slip? With the math proficiency score for California students plummeting to just 33%, it’s clear that support is needed more than ever. At Tutor Doctor Santa Monica and nearby communities, we provide one-to-one tutoring that’s personalized to your child’s needs—right here in your neighborhood. These early school years are foundational, and the right support now can make all the difference in your child’s long-term success.

At Tutor Doctor, we believe that every student learns differently—and they deserve a tutoring experience that reflects that. By tailoring each session to the individual, we help students not only improve grades but build self-esteem and critical skills that stick with them far beyond the classroom.

Meet Nika, Your Local Education Advocate!

Nika launched Tutor Doctor Santa Monica in 2013 after stepping away from her professional career to focus on raising her children. As a dedicated parent and lifelong learner, she spent time volunteering in local classrooms, where she saw firsthand how diverse student learning needs can be—and how often they go unmet. She knew she wanted to build something that could fill those gaps with real understanding and personalized care.

With Tutor Doctor, Nika created a tutoring service that blends community connection with world-class resources. Her “concierge” approach means she takes the time to get to know each family and student personally before matching them with the ideal tutor, someone who is not just academically qualified, but also a great fit in personality and teaching style. Every tutor is vetted with the same level of care she would use in choosing someone to work with her own kids.
