    I am more than grateful to have an amazing teacher. I was able to find help and understand the subject as he explained everything step-by-step with diligent to ensure that I understand the subject. I highly recommend him as tutor, especially if its related to software.

    Franklin has been a great addition to my 5 year olds academic life. Ive noticed a dramatic improvement in his skills and confidence. Franklin is very patient. Reagan looks forward to his zoom session weekly. He especially loves the graphics Franklin uses when teaching. It has overall been a wonderful experience.

    Franklin is very proactive, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to. He helped my son in 2 sessions to start building the confidence he needed to tackle Python Coding Problems. Looking forward to seeing my son further advance with his help. So glad we found him!

    Frequently asked questions

    1 Finding out about your child’s goals

    We’ll start with a free 10-minute consultation to speak with you and your child to understand your child’s goals, strengths, and weaknesses. We will then prescribe a plan to help your child get to where they want to be.

    2 Connecting the right tutor for your child

    Does your child learn best with practice examples? Repetition? Visual learners? Does well on assignments, but not on tests? After getting to know your child during the consultation, we meticulously match a tutor according to things like the student’s learning style, personality, interests, and related experience.

    3 Gathering assignments and Google Meets

    Our tutors will reach out to you or your child to receive previous exam material and future assignments on the subject being tutored. This will ensure that the session is efficiently spent on tutoring and less on technical difficulties. Our tutors will also send an email that contains the Google Meet Video Conference link.

    4 Tutoring your child

    Personalized online tutoring involves a designed program for each specific student. That could mean our tutors helping your child with homework, reviewing previous exams to identify weak areas, or providing critical examples that will strengthen their understanding of the material, maximize test scores, and increase self-confidence to overcome difficulties.

    5 Communicating after-session feedback

    After each session, we’ll share how your student did in a concise email or a phone call, what we will continue working on, and discuss any recommended changes to achieve your child’s goals and fast-track them to improvement.

    6 Being an academic mentor

    A family friend found out I scored well on my SATs and school exams and wanted to hire me as a tutor for their daughter, who wanted to go to a competitively ranked college. I worked with her for over two years and helped her achieve a 99th percentile score on her SAT Reading and Math. She also achieved a perfect GPA. Long story short, she got into her dream school (MIT).

    After that, I started tutoring more students during college to help pay for tuition, books, and rent. I had a great time building relationships with the families I tutored. Over time, I built a solid clientele and knew I wanted to help more students. That's when Tutoria Prep was born. With help from a Yale Ph.D. student, my fiancé, we talked to many parents and built a website and a business dedicated to helping students achieve academic success.

    Every college application season, our students get accepted into top schools like Stanford, MIT, Cornell, Yale, and Princeton. Knowing the time and effort our students place into understanding subject material, taking on challenging courses, trying out our CS bootcamps, and having it rewarded is a marvelous sight. We do victory laps for our students! 

    First, find a tutor with a history of academic and tutoring success. Second, get a tutor that thinks like an academic mentor and is invested in your student’s future. More importantly, find a tutor that teaches your student to love the process.

    At Tutoria Prep, we teach students not only to strive for academic success and have a long-term vision but to simultaneously love the process. Loving the process ensures that roadblocks in the future will be met with eagerness and determination rather than fear and avoidance.
