Considerations Before Scheduling an Intake Session Believe it or not, ADD/ADHD students often perform better remotely! We do not recommend tutoring for everyone. Remote tutoring can be successful for many students, but not all. We can determine this during our remote intake appointment. Online tutoring should take place in a distraction-free, quiet area of your home. Please make sure that other siblings, pets, etc. are in another location during the tutoring session. We encourage all students to use of headphones, whenever possible. :) Remote tutoring somet challenges to work with, from time to time. Be prepared that sometimes sessions have to be reschedule or cut short. In the event of computer problems, we will make every effort to reschedule the lost time. If remote tutoring isn’t a good fit for your family, we will refund any unused portion of your tuition paid, the first month, that’s our guarantee.
