Elementary
Private tutoring is available for all subjects and grades at the elementary level. However at the primary level, fundamentals in Mathematics and English are paramount to students’ success in later years.
Students are taught on a one-on-one basis the fundamentals of the English language. Reading, writing, spelling and grammar are the areas of focus. A child’s ability to read and write will place him at the top of his class. Conversely, the inability to read or write will not only slow him down but can affect his other abilities.
The new mathematics curriculum is quite rigorous compared to its predecessor. The student is expected to learn many new concepts in the same time frame. It is of utmost important to keep your child on top of his math skills to avoid playing the catch-up game.
Private tutoring is booked on an hourly basis. Regular sessions once or twice a week for an hour each session will keep your child on track. If your child is behind, we recommend at least two sessions a week to get him/her caught up. Consistent tutoring is the only way to see improvements. Within a few short months you will see your child excel.
A typical private lesson will comprise of a lesson, examples and homework assignment. The tutor will instruct your child on the particular learnings then have your child work on a few examples until the tutor feels that your child has mastered the concept. Extra homework questions will be assigned to reinforce the lesson.
Students are taught either at the office or in the home. The study environment needs to be free of distractions. Thus if you have a busy household, keep in mind you can have tutoring at the office where we have designated private tutoring rooms.
Group Tutoring
Group tutoring is offered to two or more students up to a maximum of 4. This service is ideal if you have same-age children (twins, triplets,classmates, etc.) who are in the same grade level. This is an economical way to have quality tutoring at a reduced cost. The first student is charged the regular fee and each additional student costs $10. Averaged out, the overall cost per student is lower.
Booking Policy. Bookings are made based on pre-paid monthly plans. A minimum of 4 sessions must be pre-paid monthly. New clients who register mid-month, must add the remaining weeks in the current month to the 4 sessions for the next full month.
Cancellation Policy. We require 24 hours notice for cancellations or a $25 cancellation charge will be levied. In the case a regular tutor is unable to make a scheduled appointment, we will assign a relief tutor to fill in for the day.
