Our Philosophy

We believe that one-on-one tutoring from a talented, caring tutor is the most effective way to help a student reach his or her academic potential. We also believe that a well-matched tutor can develop the rapport and trust with the student that is critical to the success of the tutoring support. Students who raise their grades with this type of support also gain loads of self esteem, confidence, and pride. These qualities lead not only to a successful student, but to a person who is successful in all areas of life.

The Advantage of One-on-One

Parents, teachers, and students tell us that one-on-one tutoring is far superior to small group (three students to one tutor) tutoring. When a student needs help, they want the help right away rather than waiting for someone to be available. With one-on-one tutoring, the help is always there, every step of the way. With A+ Home Tutors, the help is also customized to the way the student learns, and it comes from a trusted tutor who has developed rapport with your child. Many parents tell us their students learn more in one session with A+ than they did with several group sessions.

We Believe In...

  • ...working with the most talented, experienced, and caring tutors.
  • ...taking the time to make a great tutoring match.
  • ...developing self esteem and confidence in our students.
  • ...communicating openly with parents about progress, questions, concerns and tutoring objectives.
  • ...making the whole process as easy and convenient as possible.

About Us

It’s Worth Every Penny!

“I have been blown away by the progress my daughter has made with Maria from A+ Home Tutors.
In 2 months, her grade in math has gone up 2 full letter grades, and her overall grade point average has gone up 1.6 points. I had high expectations when I started using the service; A+ Home Tutors has met all of them and then some. It has been worth every penny.”

We Are Delighted--Fs to Cs and Bs, and the sky is the limit!

“My son brought home some Cs in a few of his honors classes (the first time ever!), and he seemed a bit overwhelmed with his classes. Brian matched our son with Mike, who worked with him on creating and implementing an organizational strategy in addition to helping him with his school work. Now, our son has a 3.7 grade point average, and we are considering stopping the tutoring because we feel he can succeed on his own. Now that is success! WE are very happy, and we would recommend A+ Home Tutors to anyone looking for a great tutor.”
