- Can I choose a tutor for my child?We understand that the connection and fit between a student and tutor are crucial for effective learning. We highly encourage your participation in the selection process because you know your child best. Our process begins with an initial consultation to assess the needs of your child. Based on the information, we will find the best tutors that meet the criteria. We will allow you to review the tutor profiles of these potential tutors so you can narrow down the list. Throughout the process, we strongly encourage you to share your preferences regarding the tutor’s personality, teaching approach, and any specific qualities you believe would be beneficial for your child’s learning. For example, you might prefer a tutor who is very patient and encouraging for your child who lacks confidence and needs to be pushed and motivated.
