The Best Tutoring in Franklin, MI

We tailor each plan to your child and to what teachers expect in Birmingham Public Schools and Bloomfield Hills Schools. We review class syllabi, assignments, rubrics, and upcoming tests that you share with us. We teach to Michigan Academic Standards and follow district pacing so sessions support what is happening in class. If you would like, we can coordinate with your child’s teacher to keep goals aligned. Reading support is a priority in Michigan. On the 2025 state assessments, 61.1% of third graders did not reach reading proficiency. We focus on foundations like phonics, fluency, and comprehension so students in Franklin stay on track.

We match students with tutors who know the curriculum and connect well with your child. If you want deeper insight, we can include the MindPrint Learning Assessment to guide strategies. We stay in touch after the first sessions to confirm the fit and make adjustments if needed.

Common signs include homework taking too long, stress or avoidance, slipping grades, comments from teachers, or a jump in rigor like moving into middle school, Algebra, or AP classes. Reading gaps can show up as slow fluency or trouble understanding what was read. A local parent shared, “My daughter (6th grade) has always struggled in math. I had her start tutoring this year for the first time and guess what… she placed in Advanced Math for Middle School!” If something is not working, a free consultation can help you decide the best next step.
