A personalized approach to education can help your child to get further ahead, fill in their gaps of knowledge, and overcome any obstacles they may face in the classroom.

At Home and Online One-on-One Tutoring Services

icon-arrow-down
icon-arrow-up

Some students learn best when they work one on one with an educator who can explain source material to them in a way they are responsive to. We work closely with your child to form a close bond and provide them with the tools they need to succeed in the classroom. We offer at-home tutoring services so that your child can learn in a place that is familiar to them.

Prep Academy Tutors provides flexible at-home tutoring in Oakville and Burlington to ensure that your child is receiving education at a rate and time that is convenient to them, and for your schedule. It is important to us that your child is able to continue their daily routine without disruption, so we coordinate with you to determine the best times for our tutoring services.

We act as a “smart friend” for your child who provides them with education on their terms, in a place where they are comfortable and without distraction. It is important for us to create an atmosphere where your child feels like they can ask questions and share what they need to achieve academic success.

The reality is that some students learn best when they have the support of another child who can motivate them and bounce off ideas with them. This can help students to feel less alone. We offer semi-private tutoring in Oakville and Burlington for students who learn better with a companion.

 Semi-private tutoring with two students can create a sense of camaraderie when both children have a common goal. It can also provide a child with a sense of familiarity when they receive tutoring with someone who they are comfortable around and can relate to.

Our private tutoring services in Burlington and Oakville include the option for group tutoring sessions for students who prefer to learn collaboratively. We provide tutoring in groups of 3-6 students to ensure that our students are able to feel like they are learning in a collaborative environment while still maintaining a small class size.

Whether you are looking for an English tutor in Oakville or a math tutor in Burlington, we will be able to pair you with a tutor who specializes in the subject matter that your child would like to revisit in a more familiar, and personalized manner. We provide tutoring for the following subjects:

 

● Science (Physics, Biology, Chemistry, General Science, Computer Science)

● Social Studies (Philosophy, History, Geography, Civics)

● Mathematics (General Mathematics, Algebra & Geometry, Calculus & Vectors, Data Management, Advanced Functions)

● English (Essay Writing, Reading, Literature, Writing Skills)

● Languages (Spanish, Mandarin, French, Italian)

Our tutors provide in-home tutoring in the City of Burlington and the Town of Oakville that is aligned with the current curriculum practiced by the Halton Region. Prevalent school boards in the Halton Region include the Halton District School Board, Halton Catholic District School Board, and the French Catholic School Board.

We teach students curriculum-based material in a way that is personally catered to their individual learning needs. Our tutors will cover curriculum subject matter with your child before it is addressed in their classroom so that they can apply their knowledge when the topic is approached in a classroom setting.

 We teach curriculum material before it is taught in the classroom so that your child can see the parallels between what they are learning at home, and at school. This will help them to make connections and be better prepared for any new subject matter.

After we cover and master curriculum material, we will revisit any areas where your child may have gaps in knowledge. Instead of skipping over areas of difficulty, we come back to these topics to ensure your child has the confidence to take on the material in their classroom.

Many students struggle with standardized testing due to feelings of stress and anxiety, which is why we offer test preparation services to provide students with the tools they need to be prepared for, and confidently approach examinations and standardized tests. We provide test preparation services for standardized tests such as the SSAT, SAT, ACT, and ISEE.

Enrichment Programs

Students in Burlington and Oakville can benefit from our enrichment program that is geared towards those looking to get ahead or expand their knowledge in a subject of interest. Prep Academy tutors offer enrichment programs for students aged 4-24.

Our enrichment program provides students with the chance to get ahead and expand their knowledge in a unique subject that is not covered or thoroughly covered in the standardized classroom. Our enrichment program is well suited to students looking to learn a new language, study a specific subject not offered in their school, or expand their knowledge of a subject only briefly touched upon by the current curriculum.

 

Remedial Tutoring Programs

Prep Academy Tutors offers remedial programs for students in Burlington and Oakville looking to get back on track to reach their academic goals.
