FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
My fees are negotiable depending on how often students would like to meet. First tutoring session is free.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
When working with a new student, I first ask for a writing sample or portfolio of work so that I can make an individualized plan of instruction that will meet that student's needs. During tutoring sessions, I work with students to set and meet goals, putting the learner at the center of the learning experience. For school age student, I also provide feedback to both parents and students about big picture areas of strength and growth in a student's reading and writing skills.
