The Best Tutoring in Orchard Lake Village, MI

Families in Orchard Lake Village begin with a free consultation. Our four-step process is Assess, Match, Tutor, and Support. In Assess, we learn goals and your child’s learning profile. In Match, we pair your child with a tutor based on subject expertise, personality, and learning style, with our Tutor Fit Guarantee if a change is needed. In Tutor, sessions can be in your home or online, and online sessions are recorded for review. In Support, you receive a written session report after each meeting and regular check-ins to adjust the plan. We proudly serve Orchard Lake Village and nearby communities, including West Bloomfield, Bloomfield Hills, Keego Harbor, Sylvan Lake, and more.

Yes. Our approach is local and aligned with Michigan standards. Tutors review your child’s course syllabi and upcoming assessments and stay current with what is taught in West Bloomfield and Bloomfield Hills schools. We can coordinate with teachers to support IEP goals and 504 accommodations if requested. This helps your student stay confident and on track with classroom expectations.

We support learners from elementary through high school and beyond. Subjects include Math (from foundational skills to Calculus and Statistics), English Language Arts, Science, Social Studies and study skills, and world languages offered by local districts. Test prep includes M-STEP, PSAT, SAT, ACT, and AP courses common in area high schools. We also offer X-Skills coaching to strengthen organization, planning, time management, prioritization, and goal setting.

Yes. Our local Owner and Education Consultant, Carolyn Graham, holds a Specialist in Special Education and leads a team experienced with diverse learning needs. We tailor pacing, materials, and strategies to the student, reinforce IEP goals and 504 accommodations, use multisensory methods, and build executive functioning with X-Skills. If a formal learning assessment would help, we can discuss options during your consultation.

We match on three things: subject expertise, learning style, and personality fit. We consider what motivates your child, how they prefer to learn, and the specific course demands in their school. Scheduling and location are also taken into account. If the fit isn’t right, our Tutor Fit Guarantee allows us to change the tutor and adjust the plan so your child feels supported.

Our tutors are rigorously vetted. They are experienced educators or subject-matter experts with strong academic backgrounds and clear communication skills. We run background checks and screen for the ability to explain concepts, adapt to different learning styles, and build student confidence. Many tutors have experience with Oakland County schools and are familiar with Michigan standards and AP coursework.

After every session you receive a written report that summarizes what was covered, how your child responded, and next steps. We set clear goals and milestones aligned with school expectations and your family’s priorities. We monitor classwork, quizzes and tests, and teacher feedback when available, and we hold check-ins to adjust the plan. Local Orchard Lake Village families have seen meaningful progress with regular updates.
