How it works

Three steps. No surprises.

A clean, straightforward process from booking to your first session — we'll know where your student is, where they need to be, and how to get there.

Book a session

Diagnostic first session

Every relationship starts with a 60-minute diagnostic — we figure out exactly where your student is strong, where they're shaky, and build a session plan from there.

Why 1-on-1

Group classes can't do this.

In a classroom, your student is one of 25. Getting stuck means waiting, raising a hand, missing the next concept while the teacher catches them up. 1-on-1 fixes that.

Every minute is for them

No waiting for the rest of the class. No moving past a concept they didn't get. The session pace adapts to your student in real time.

ii.

We see how they think

We watch the work happen — which means we catch the wrong habits and misunderstandings that don't show up in answer keys.

iii.

Real accountability

Homework gets reviewed. Progress gets tracked. Parents get updates every 4 sessions on what's working and what's not.

A struggling student isn't a slow student. They just needed someone to slow down with them.

Frequently asked

Questions, answered straight.

Is the first session free?

No — every session is $40, including the first. But the first session is a diagnostic, which means even if you're not sure whether 1-on-1 is right for your student, you'll walk away with a clear picture of where they're at and what they need. If we don't think we're the right fit, we'll tell you.

In-person at our home — is that safe?

Yes. Sessions happen in a common area of your home — kitchen table, dining room, or living room work great. We ask that a parent or another adult is home during the session. If you'd rather meet at a neutral location, every St. Louis County Library branch has study rooms you can reserve for free.

How often should my student book sessions?

Once a week is the sweet spot for most students taking a math class at school — frequent enough to keep momentum, with enough time between sessions for homework to do the heavy lifting. Some students do twice a week (especially before tests or for catching up). We'll recommend the right cadence after the diagnostic.

What if my student needs to cancel a session?

No cancellation fee if you give us 24 hours notice. Last-minute cancellations (under 24 hours) are charged at the full session rate — that's how we protect the tutor's time. We're flexible with rescheduling.

How do you handle homework between sessions?

Every session ends with a homework assignment — usually 30–60 minutes of practice problems that consolidate what we covered. Students are expected to do the homework. Most of the actual learning happens between sessions, not during them — the session is where concepts get unlocked. If homework isn't getting done, we'll flag it for parents.

Do you cover subjects other than math?

Right now we only tutor math (Pre-Algebra through AP Calculus) and the math sections of the ACT and SAT. We'd rather do one thing well than spread thin. If you need a tutor for English, science, or other subjects, we can refer you to people we trust.

How long does it take to see improvement?

Honest answer: it depends on where your student starts and how much homework they actually do. Most students notice real change within 4–6 sessions — better grades on the next test, less anxiety doing homework. Deeper, lasting improvement (a full letter grade up, real fluency) usually takes a semester of consistent work.

Can we switch tutors if it's not a good fit?

Absolutely. Just let us know and we'll re-match you with whoever fits better. No awkwardness, no fees, no questions. The point is that your student gets the help they need — if that means a different tutor, that's fine.

1-on-1 math tutoring that actually moves the needle.
