About Our Tutors - Tutoring with DC: Online Tutoring Services

Welcome to Tutoring with DC

At Tutoring With DC, we believe success begins with a world-class tutoring team. Our strict hiring standards and careful screening process ensure that each of our candidates is professional, friendly, experienced, and above all, committed to every student’s success. Our goal is to provide students with the tools to succeed in their current academic studies, score high on ACT and SAT tests, and take on higher education with a newfound confidence.

Our tutors believe in your student’s future and will work with them every step of the way to overcome obstacles and achieve their goals.

Our Company Mission

Our number one priority is to see students succeed, no matter their goals. Whether your student simply needs help in a particular subject, is getting ready to take their SAT or ACT, or is preparing for college, our tutors will work with them to overcome their weaknesses, reinforce their strengths, and achieve their ambitions.

Our Philosophy

We believe that, with the right teacher, any student can be successful in the classroom. By providing a personal, one-on-one learning environment, our students are able to build meaningful relationships with their tutors built on trust. The best way to learn is by doing, so we strive to create a safe setting that gives students the confidence to push past their limits and try something new.

Our Promise

We’re committed to the success of each and every one of our students. We want students to not only meet, but exceed, their goals. To achieve this, we work closely with parents and students alike to understand your student’s unique challenges and learning style. Using frequent and thorough communication, we build a custom curriculum for every student designed to bring out their full potential.

We Deliver

For the past decade, our tutors have been developing a robust set of learning techniques that can be adapted to meet any student’s needs. The best way to meet goals is to set them, so we start by listing your student’s objectives. We then break those objectives down into measurable steps and set an agenda for accomplishing them. Alongside meeting these goals, students will learn valuable time-management skills, note-taking practices, and test-taking strategies.
