Frequently Asked Questions

Online Tutoring

1. Will I have the same tutor who took the trial?

Yes, we will have a dedicated tutor for your child. This will make the learning more effective. We do not change the tutor unless you ask for a change.

2. Which curriculum will be followed?

Here we have 2 options:

You can share the curriculum that you want us to follow
If you do not have one, we can follow the TEKS (Texas Essential Knowledge Skills) curriculum.

3. Will the sessions be recorded?

Yes, all tutoring sessions will be recorded. The recordings will be uploaded to your portal where the student can replay to review and the parents can even check to see what their child is studying and how their child is progressing. These are usually uploaded within 6-8 hours of the session.

4. Will my child get homework too?

Yes, a practice worksheet will be emailed to you after every session to ensure assimilation and review of the concept taught. Your student can either solve and mail it back to the tutor or keep it ready for discussion in the next session.

5. Will there be periodic assessments?

Yes. Usually after teaching a few concepts, the tutor will assess your child to monitor their learning progress.

Regular sessions will be for an hour. If required primary students can take a 5-7 minutes break during the session.
