Yes. Many students need targeted support. APS reports about 26.5% math proficiency and 43.5% in English Language Arts, so skill gaps are common. We start with a quick skills review to find the root causes. For math, we rebuild number sense and problem-solving step by step. For reading, we strengthen fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension strategies tied to current class texts. We also coach executive skills like planning and time management through our X-Skills program so improvements last beyond a single unit or test.

You receive a brief session report after every tutoring meeting that notes focus areas, wins, and next steps. We set clear goals such as mastering specific standards, raising quiz and test scores, improving homework completion, or building independent study habits. We adjust the plan based on class feedback and upcoming APS assessments. Many families see gains in confidence as well. One local parent shared, “After only a few months of weekly tutoring sessions my son felt more confident. That is, his math skills moved up 4 grade levels in that short time frame, and he was placed in college level math, just in time for college.” While results vary, consistent communication keeps everyone aligned.

Sessions can be in-home or online, and online meetings are recorded so students can review lessons before exam day.
