FAQs
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
David Burk, owner and tutor of DB Private Tutoring Services, spends 4-6 hours a week working on math so he is always well prepared to tutor any age student, in any subject. David spends additional time preparing for each student before their scheduled session, and tailors the lesson to their strengths, weaknesses, and goals. From David: "Because I scored 710 on the math portion of the SAT, I have added SAT math to the subjects we offer. I enjoy working through the SAT manuals and taking the practice exams in preparation for tutoring, and I look forward to helping my students achieve high scores when they test."
- What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Experience is invaluable. Check references. See if someone you know can recommend a good tutor. Check with your child's guidance counselor for a referral to a tutor. You can also check with your child's school district to see if they have a private tutor list.
