Frequently Asked Questions

1. How can Accredited Tutors help me improve my grades? Working with students one on one has proved to be much more effective than learning in a classroom setting. Our tutors are able to use a variety of multi-sensory techniques to find out what kind of learner you are. Are you a visual learner instead of an oral learner? If that’s the case, then when the teacher orally lectures you on a topic, it will be difficult for you to understand. We use a variety of teaching methods until we find one that works for you. We have had tremendous success helping students of all ages learn material they didn’t understand before.
2. What about improving my kid’s confidence in her ability to succeed in school?
   Our tutors have been able to build a relationship with each student where we help identify the positive in their work. Everyone has something they are good in. For example, a student in geometry can do succeed in the artistic aspect but not the mathematic aspect. With encouragement, most students will achieve a higher self-esteem. Sometimes, someone outside of their friends and family (like a tutor) is just the person who can make a real difference.
3. What subjects do you teach? We have been able to gather a very large team of teachers and professionals who teach nearly every subject and every grade. Contact us directly and chances are, we can help.
4. How much do your tutoring services charge? We charge $55 per hour with an hour and a half minimum. Our rates are so reasonable for the level of tutoring we provide, even the State of California uses us. Ask about our discount for first time clients.

10. Where does the tutoring take place? We can tutor you in your home or a location convenient for you.
11. Can you help students with special needs? Yes, we have teachers with special education credentials who can tutor your child. Also, very often students with learning difficulties have attention deficient problems. One on one tutoring really does help keep student’s attention.

When a student needs tutoring in two vastly different topics (such as Spanish and Algebra) we may send out two tutors.
