Where are Classes?

Classes may be held online or in-person based on availability and/or preference of student. For in-person tutoring, it is preferred the student travels to the instructors home. For students preferring the instructor travels to their home/location, the following rates apply: Travel fees are based on round-trip travel time from the instructor’s home to the student’s location. There is no fee for round-trips under 15 minutes. A 15-minute round-trip incurs a $40 fee per 10-class package, and a 25-minute round-trip incurs an $80 fee.
