Academic Coaching with Kalamazoo Area Tutors
Our individualized instruction is aligned to support your child’s academic needs. By partnering with parents and teachers, we reinforce and extend learning by developing a prescriptive one-on-one tutoring program. We also believe the cornerstone to excellent teaching is providing interactive and real-life application to instruction. We do not subscribe to a workbook-driven curriculum, like most tutoring companies. Instead, we favor a “student centered” approach to learning, by taking your child from “what they know” and advancing them through an accelerated approach to learning. In doing so, they are more motivated to learn and retain new information.
We support teaching to “all” learners and to your child’s interests and strengths. Our instructors are all experts in their fields and have a history in motivating students to learn.
Study Skills
Our experienced staff of Kalamazoo area tutors has background in working with a wide range of learners: ADHD, dyslexia, autism, learning disabilities, talented and gifted. We are eager to teach to all student abilities and needs.

College Testing
Our staff provides support in preparing students for the ACT, SAT and GRE Tests.

Students will maximize their study time and test scores, by knowing what to study and how much to study. We use current test study booklets that are aligned to these assessments.
