How do I start with Successful Solutions?

What's the minimum time to work with a tutor?
For the majority of students, we recommend 60 minutes per session. Some older students may benefit from longer, "double" sessions (2 hours). For younger students with shorter attention spans, a 30-minute session is usually recommended.

What can I get help with?
We offer a wide variety of academic tutoring services!
The needs of each individual student will be determined during the initial 30-minute consultation. It is helpful if you bring samples of work, diagnostic test results, and any other information you deem pertinent in identifying the direction of the tutoring sessions.
