Tutoring Hours:
I tutor students from all over the world, so tutoring times depend on how our time zones match up. Email, text, or call to see what works best for both of us (see “Contact” tab above).
One-Time Sessions
While most students prefer a weekly time (such as Tuesdays at 6pm or 8pm), some parents are looking for “emergency” support for their child when a big essay or presentation is approaching. In these cases, I would read the novel or material your child needs to learn, and meet with them for one or several hours at a time as needed. For instance, your child may have a due date tomorrow and needs support, so we could meet for one extended 4 hour session to complete the assignment together. Or, we could meet for two hours twice over two days, leaving them writing time in between. Anything is possible in terms of scheduling time to support your child.
