Private Tutoring
ACES will schedule a free consultation with you over the phone. The consultant will discuss your child’s educational history, learning style, strengths and weaknesses, and goals for tutoring. In addition, you will be provided a detailed explanation of the tutoring services available to you.
ACES will then thoughtfully match your child with a tutor based on subjects, goals for tutoring and personality. Tutors review all available assessments and work with the student to identify his unique learning style, strengths and weaknesses. From this, the tutor develops a customized and personalized learning plan that uses techniques and strategies to make learning both fun and efficient.
ACES tutors are located throughout Palm Beach County and specialize in a variety of subject areas. Elementary tutors can help with reading, math, or study skills and homework from all subjects. High school math tutors can help with basic math courses as well as Honors and AP courses. FCAT and SAT tutors will help you prepare for the upcoming test. Tutors are also available for science, social studies, geography, Spanish, French and many other subjects.
Parents are guaranteed that the tutor will thoroughly meet their expectations. If you are not thoroughly satisfied with your child’s tutor or the progress that you see, ACES will immediately substitute a tutor that better meets your needs. There are no long-term contracts and a tutor will contact you within 48 hours of submitting your registration.
