Tutoring

Each student is matched with a qualified tutor based on the course, grade level, and individual learning needs. Sessions may include homework assistance, test preparation, reviewing difficult concepts, strengthening foundational skills, and improving overall academic performance. This option is ideal for students who need occasional help or ongoing support in one core academic subject.

Our Semester Bulk Tutoring Package is designed for students who need recurring weekly appointments throughout the semester.

• Minimum purchase: 15 hours — no maximum
• Bulk rate: $55 per hour (a $15 hourly discount)
• Drop-in rate after hours are used: $70 per hour

Bulk hours must be purchased for and used within one specific semester: fall, spring, or summer. Expiration dates: Fall — December 31; Spring — May 31; Summer — July 31.

When determining how many hours to purchase, families planning to attend once per week should count the number of weeks tutoring will be needed, excluding school holidays and other planned absences.

Unused hours do not roll over or transfer to another semester. Once all purchased hours have been used, additional appointments will be billed at the regular $70-per-hour rate for that semester. Bulk tutoring packages may be purchased once per semester and are intended for the individual student for whom they were originally purchased.

Who is this package for? Students who benefit from consistent, recurring academic support: weekly help in a challenging subject, homework completion and understanding, test and quiz preparation, or grade improvement. Recurring appointments also benefit students who need accountability, stronger study and organizational skills, help catching up after absences, or additional support with ADD/ADHD, attention challenges, or learning differences — as well as students in honors, AP, dual-enrollment, and college courses who want dependable support all semester.

Students are matched with a qualified tutor based on their specific subject, grade level, and individual learning needs. Sessions may include homework assistance, test preparation, skill-building, and ongoing academic support. In-home tutoring is ideal for busy families who want high-quality, customized instruction without the added travel.

Please note: an In-Home Evaluation & Orientation is required prior to the first session.

Sessions may include help with assignments, studying for tests, organization, time management, planning, prioritizing, note-taking, and staying on top of deadlines. Coaching is personalized to the student's individual needs and is designed to build confidence, improve academic performance, and help the student become more organized, independent, and successful.

Personally led by Best in Class owner and experienced educator Stephanie Crawford, our five-hour Study Skills Course gives students practical tools to become more organized, confident, and independent learners.

This course goes beyond simply telling students to "study harder." Students learn proven, easy-to-use strategies for managing their time, organizing assignments and materials, taking effective notes, completing homework efficiently, preparing for tests, setting meaningful goals, and studying in ways that support how they learn best. Throughout the course, students develop a personalized system they can begin using immediately — and continue using throughout their entire academic journey.

Students will learn how to:

• Stay organized and keep track of assignments
• Manage their time and avoid last-minute cramming
• Take useful, effective notes
• Complete homework more efficiently
• Prepare for tests with a clear study plan
• Set achievable academic goals
• Identify study strategies that work for them
• Build confidence and take greater ownership of their education

Strong study skills can transform more than a student's grades — reduce frustration, ease academic stress, strengthen confidence, and create habits that support success in middle school, high school, college, and beyond. The five hours are conveniently scheduled in one-hour sessions over multiple days, allowing students time to practice and apply each new skill between meetings.
