Are your services confidential?
Always – and without exception. Please review our privacy policy.
What are your policies regarding rates and payment?
Our rates are custom-tailored to each student / situation. Please contact us to discuss our fee schedule. Please review our payment policies for more information regarding payment schedule and methods.
Why do you say you’re more of an academic coach than a tutor?
We stay connected to clients on an ongoing basis (as opposed to “only when scheduled”). In addition, we touch on other areas that may be holding clients back – for example, diet, sleep, motivation, etc. These are all important factors in education and learning, and we would be doing a disservice if we ignored them.
What areas do you serve?
We work with students and executives all over the world, primarily remotely. In select California locations, we have the ability to meet locally with students. Our methods are very effective via e-mail and WebEx. We have clients in China, Taiwan, England, Russia, England, South Korea, South America, South Africa, and throughout the U.S. Distance is not a factor.
What ages do you coach/tutor?
Five to 95…give or take a few years.
Can you help special-ed students?
Absolutely! In fact, one of our biggest pet peeves is that special-ed students get the short end of the educational stick. Children who think outside the box, or are antsy, or whose minds move in many different directions, get pushed into special education – whether they need it or not. We’ll help change that.
Can you help gifted students?
A HUGE Yes! Just like special education students, gifted students are often misunderstood and do not get the attention they need. We’ll provide the proper challenges.
Can you help dyslexic students?
We specialize in Dyslexia remediation. We customize our learning plan for each child based on their individual goals and issues. Our teaching approach is as versatile as our clientele.
I’m a professionals and want to write better e-mails and letters. Can you help?
Indeed we can. We have helped many professionals, including CEOs, executives, engineers, and scientists become better writers and communicators.
I need an essay written fast or I’m going to flunk. Can you… like… you know… help?
The affirmative answers end here. Sorry, but we do not write essays for people. However, if you find yourself in this situation, we do have a two-point plan that will help you:
- Cram and just write what you need written. You can do it.
- Contact us and we’ll work with you to ensure that this doesn’t happen again.
