How long does it take to get matched with a tutor?

Matching typically takes 1-2 weeks, depending on tutor availability and your scheduling preferences. We prioritize finding the right fit over speed.

What happens in the first session?

The first session is an introduction where the tutor and student get to know each other, discuss learning goals, and begin planning personalized lessons. Parents are welcome to join.

Should parents be present during sessions?

This depends on the student's age and comfort level. Younger students may want a parent nearby; older students often prefer independent sessions.

What will my child learn in tutoring sessions?

Curriculum is personalized: pronunciation, conversational English, vocabulary, reading comprehension, writing, and confidence in spoken communication.
