With parent permission, we review teacher syllabi, unit outlines, and assignments. We focus on upcoming quizzes, tests, and projects so tutoring stays directly tied to classroom goals. This is especially important in Saint Clair Shores where math proficiency is lower than the state average. We target gaps and build the skills your child needs to keep up and move ahead.

We use the Tutor Doctor process. First, we meet for a free consultation to understand your child’s strengths, goals, learning style, and schedule. Then we select a tutor with the right subject expertise and a personality fit. All tutors complete a thorough screening and background check, and many have classroom experience or advanced degrees. Your family receives our Tutor Fit Guarantee, which means we will adjust the plan or change the tutor if the fit is not right. Families often tell us the match makes the biggest difference because students feel understood and supported from day one.

Yes. We support students with IEPs and 504 plans and align our sessions with their accommodations. Our local owner, Carolyn Graham, is an experienced educator and former principal with a specialist in Special Education. Tutors use strategies such as multisensory instruction, scaffolded practice, chunking, and explicit modeling. We also build executive functioning through our X-Skills program, which develops organization, time management, planning, and prioritization. We work at the student’s pace and keep families informed so support stays consistent at home and school.

We offer both in-home tutoring across Saint Clair Shores and surrounding areas as well as live online tutoring. Online sessions are recorded so students can review before tests. Scheduling is flexible, with options after school, evenings, and weekends. We work to fit tutoring into busy family calendars and can coordinate with sports, clubs, and work shifts. If your family lives near the Nautical Mile, Blossom Heath, or anywhere in Macomb County, we can set up a plan that works for you.

You will receive updates after every session that outline what was covered, how your child is doing, and what is next. We set clear goals at the start, then track:
– Classroom performance and test scores
– Homework completion and accuracy
– Skills mastery tied to Michigan standards
– Executive function growth, like planning and organization
We adjust the plan as needed and can coordinate with teachers when families request it. This transparency gives you peace of mind and helps students see their growth.

Common signs include homework battles, frequent missing or late assignments, low quiz or test scores, or grades that do not match your child’s effort. You might also notice gaps in math basics, stress about reading and writing, or trouble staying organized. Given local proficiency rates, many students benefit from added support. Start with a free consultation, and we will assess needs and recommend a plan that fits your child and your schedule.

Families often see stronger confidence, better homework habits, and higher grades. We have supported Saint Clair Shores students who moved into advanced math tracks and earned higher test scores.
