FAQ
-
WHERE IS TUTORING?
I can tutor any student online over zoom, and for students located in the Walnut Creek/Concord area I can tutor in-persn. I meet with many students at local libraries, cafes, or just at students’ homes—wherever you feel that you can learn best!
-
WHAT AGE OF STUDENT DO YOU WORK WITH?
Although I can work with students of all ages, most of my training and academic expertise is in secondary education. Most of my students are in middle school, high school, and college. If you aren’t sure, check the topics I tutor here.
-
HOW DOES PAYMENT FOR TUTORING WORK?
My hourly rate varies from student to student, but can range from $30-$80/hour. I can take payment by card, venmo, cash, or whatever else works best. It is also important to me to keep tutoring as accessible as possible to students regardless of economic status, so please contact me directly if these fees will be prohibitively expensive.

WHAT CAN I EXPECT FROM OUR FIRST MEETING?
During our first tutoring session, I will spend time getting to know you and how I can best support you through your academic journey. I will ask students to share where they are at in school and what their academic goals are for the future. Each of our meetings will vary, depending on what you need most that day.

WHAT IF MY AFTERSCHOOL SCHEDULE IS ALWAYS CHANGING?
Mine is too! I like to be as flexible as possible, because I know how chaotic a student’s schedule can be. For students that like a reliable structure, I can meet at a regular time each week. But any student can also switch their appointments and make new ones as needed on my booking page. Please just let me know of any cancellations before noon on the day of our meeting to avoid my $15 cancellation fee ´・ᴗ・`

CAN YOU PLEASE GET ME AN A IN THIS CLASS?
I would if I could (。・・。) Unfortunately, as a tutor I can only provide support to students. Academic success requires mutual support and effort from students, parents, and teachers; I just hope to be another resource available in navigating the complex system of education (。•̀ᴗ-)✧
