Levels K-12

In our private science tutoring sessions, teachers focus on building a student’s understanding of scientific concepts rather than just doing homework so that the student is empowered to do future assignments independently. Our students learn to master equations, practice problem-solving skills, and beat the pressure of a science test. Special emphasis is placed on how to effectively take quizzes and exams, and how to pace oneself in order to complete them in a timely manner. Because students’ learning styles can be different with respect to how science is learned, our teachers work to unlock which methods work best for each student as an individual; therefore, private tutoring is recommended as the best approach to effectively improve one’s science skills, rather than group classes.

All levels are offered to all ages. We teach alongside school curriculum rather than introducing students to new curriculum, helping them to improve on homework, quizzes, and exams. On average, our students’ test scores dramatically improve up to two grade levels.

Tutoring is taught in sessions of 30 minutes, 45 minutes and one hour, with the cost being the same as that of private music instruction.

One fifth of the world’s population, over a billion, speak some form of Chinese as their native tongue.  Among what are considered a variety of dialects, Standard Chinese is based on Beijing Mandarin and is the most spoken form, as well as the official language of China and Taiwan, one of Singapore’s four official language, and one of the United Nation’s six official languages.  In our private one-on-one lessons, beginning students focus on learning the alphabet, numbers, basic vocabulary, nouns, verbs, basic Chinese characters and pronunciation. They will learn such useful conversational speech as greetings, requests, and self introductions. As the student advances to an intermediate level, they learn how to use past tense, future tense and a variety of word labels, learn sentences wants and needs. Our teachers will work to expand the students’ basic vocabulary and comprehension of Mandarin working towards the goal of navigating a conversation solely in Mandarin to communicate everyday business, transactions, and interactions.  At intermediate and advanced levels, students study literature and learn to translate texts. Studies have proven that people who speak more than one language ward off alzheimer’s and have stronger interpersonal and problem-solving skills.

Spanish is the second most popular natively spoken language in the world after Chinese, and the second most studied language after English. Spanish is used in North America, South America, the Caribbean, Europe, Africa, and Asia.  In California alone, more than a quarter of the residents speak Spanish at home and it is the second most spoken language in the United States.  In our private one-on-one lessons, beginning Spanish students focus on learning the alphabet, numbers, basic vocabulary, nouns, verbs, and pronunciation. They learn basic basic conversational speech such as greetings, requests, and self introduction.

In our private math tutoring sessions, teachers focus on building a student’s understanding of mathematical concepts rather than just doing homework so that the student is empowered to do future assignments independently. Our students learn to master equations, practice problem-solving skills, and beat the pressure of a math test.
