At Tutor Corps, we combine customized content, personalized learning strategies, and compassionate mentorship to help students understand not only what they need to know, but how to learn. Our approach includes a mix of content support, study skills development and mentorship, all delivered live and 1:1.

According to Brown University, emerging evidence indicates that virtual tutoring is just as effective as in person tutoring, and students and tutors have greater flexibility within the virtual setting (Example: a student needs to suddenly meet a bit later on a given day is more likely to still get their session in because tutors are typically able to more easily accommodate virtual schedule shifts if needed).

Benefit of 1:1 Tutoring

It has been empirically proven that 1:1 tutoring is the most effective form of tutoring, allowing for targeted intervention, especially when the tutoring is consistent.

1:1 tutoring allows for relationship building. It is much harder for tutors to deliver effective individualized instruction if they have to tutor more than one student at a time.

Efficacy of Online Instruction

Emerging evidence indicates that virtual tutoring is just as effective as in person tutoring.

And, online instruction better allows for the possibility of a tutor continuing with a student over several years, which is helpful because “ensuring students have a consistent tutor over time facilitates positive tutor-student relationships and a strong understanding of students’ learning needs.

Research has proven that high-dose tutoring is extremely effective for students who are struggling; 3+ tutoring sessions a week is the golden standard recommendation if a student is really struggling.
