Why Tutor?

Learning Tower provides tutoring services for Preschool, Elementary, and Middle School students of varying ability levels during the school year and over the summer. Tutoring sessions are based on the needs of the student, which may include: remediation, review, practice, enrichment, homework completion, study skills, and/or test-taking skills. Tutoring sessions can be scheduled anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour and a half and can be scheduled weekly for as many days a week as you’d like or biweekly. You may opt to employ tutoring services on an as-needed basis throughout the year.
