FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer competitive rates as a formally trained, credentialed and experienced educator. Many large tutoring, test prep and college planning firms charge $200-$300 an hour, often times with young "tutors" who lack significant teaching experience and training. I have honed genuine expertise in many academic and test prep disciplines, but I continue to offer my students lower rates, a fraction of what many of my competitors charge. Let's be honest: less company overhead and fewer executive salaries yield better prices for consumers.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I offer a complimentary 15 minute phone consultation to determine my every student's comfort with online instruction, unique needs and objectives. In addition, I gather data regarding areas that require improvement in order to build a personalized program. I have an "open door" policy; should my clients have questions or concerns, I am at their service at no added cost.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
In addition to earning a BA, MA, and CA teaching credential, I have served as an educator for over 18 years as a credentialed classroom teacher, high school principal and college adviser, private tutor and PSAT/ACT/SAT test prep instructor.
