What do we do?

Format

Students who register for our tutoring sessions can choose to sign up for 1, 2 or 3 months of tutoring. All lessons are taught online, through Google Meet or Zoom, with the tutor using online tools such as Powerpoint, Google Documents, JamBoards, online whiteboards and more to teach the lessons.

Subjects

We offer online tutoring services in math, sciences, english, french, computer science (programming), as well as preparation for SAT. We cater our services to students in grades 1 to 10, as well as ESL (english as a second language) students. Students can register for a maximum of 4 subjects at the same time.

Lessons

All lessons are 1-hour long and are taught online. The duration of a lesson can be modified per request, but is not guaranteed. Students can register for a maximum of 5 lessons per week. The schedule of the lessons are decided between the tutor and the student once the tutoring session officially begins.

What makes us unique?

Our Process

Step 1

Getting Started

First, the student has to register for a tutoring session on our website. If you are not sure what you want to register for, you can sign up for a free 30-minute assessment with one of our team members and we will help you make the best decision.

Step 2

Finding a Tutor

Once you register, we will find you a tutor who best fits your needs and preferences. This process can take up to 1 week. When we pair you with a tutor, you will receive an email from our team and a separate introductory email from the tutor.

Step 3

Starting Your Lessons

Once you get in touch with your tutor, you will have your first free lesson. If that goes well and you choose to continue your lessons, you will have to complete your payment for the tutoring session, and you will be able to continue with your lessons.

I wanted to let you know how much my daughter is enjoying French tutoring with you! She’s always talking about her lesson and what she learned and how much she’s looking forward to next one. I’m very pleased with your work and how fast my daughter is improving.

Student's Parent

My 10 year old son was very sceptical about idea of summer tutoring, but I am so glad I insisted on it! He enjoyed every tutoring session with his tutor and I feel that he is much more confident to go back to school again. If I will ever consider tutoring again, I know where to find help.

Student's Parent

Your teachers are wonderful! It helps to adapt and understand language and mathematics faster. My eldest son Vlad is 10 years old, he loves to learn from his science teacher, his lessons are very interesting and easy to learn new material. Many thanks to the math tutor for the math lessons, which is accessible and clearly explains the material in a wonderful atmosphere. You have a great team of teachers, whom I recommend to my friends. Thank you for supporting Ukraine!
