The last time you learned a new skill, why did you do it? Was it because you needed it for a job? Because you found a new hobby you enjoyed? Because someone standing in front of a bunch of desks told you you “had to because it’s on the test”?

Our tutors help students understand why they need to learn. Or complete the homework. Or take good notes. Or remove second person from academic writing. 

The reason is different for each student. Maybe they need to ace a test to bring up their grade. Maybe they need to learn Spanish because they want to speak fluently to Grandma when she visits. Maybe they want to get into a top-tier school.

Without understanding why, work is just work, and can lead to burnout and low motivation. Our tutors help each student find what motivates them, and teach them to apply it not just to schoolwork but to everyday life.
