Summer Intensive Preparation – Our Intensive Preparation classes are an ideal way to improve your children’s math skills and fully prepare them for the coming academic year, while avoiding the nearly universal deterioration of math skills that results if children neglect math over the summer.
Private Tutorial Sessions – Our teaching staff is available for one-on-one tutoring with your child in a variety of settings. Ideally, we recommend our classroom environment where the teacher can leverage all available teaching aids. Another option would be to accomodate the student in his or her own home. Tuition costs: $55.00 USD per student-staff-hour for onsite tutorial sessions and $75.00 per student-staff-hour for sessions at home. We also offer one-on-one video conferencing tutorial sessions for $55.00 USD per hour. Educational material costs are charged separately. Please contact us for more details and to discuss scheduling private tutoring sessions for your child.
