Question 1

How does online tutoring work?

Accepted Answer

All tutoring is 1-on-1 and online. Start with a 25-minute trial session with a tutor of your choice. You'll get a customized learning plan tailored to your child's needs and can subscribe to weekly sessions that fit your schedule. With regular progress updates and actionable tips, you'll watch your child's confidence grow from the comfort of home.

Question 2

What should I look for in a tutor?

Accepted Answer

When looking for a tutor, focus on finding someone who understands your child's unique learning needs and knows how to make lessons engaging and clear. The best tutors not only have subject expertise, but also know how to build confidence and make learning feel fun. Look for someone who's patient, encouraging, and can adapt their teaching style to match your child.

Question 3

How much does tutoring cost?

Accepted Answer

Tutoring is available to try for just $5 for your first session and as low as $30 for ongoing sessions, with flexible plans to fit your family's needs.

Question 4

What does a tutor do?

Accepted Answer

A tutor works 1-to-1 with your child to help them build skills, confidence, and a love for learning. They assess where your child is, create a personalized plan, and guide them through lessons designed around their pace and goals. A great tutor doesn't just teach — they encourage, motivate, and celebrate progress along the way.

Question 5

My child is struggling in school — can tutoring help?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Tutoring can make a big difference for kids who are struggling in school. A personal tutor gives your child the time, attention, and support they might not get in a busy classroom. At Dojo Tutor, we match your child with an experienced tutor who understands how to turn challenges into confidence and progress.

Question 6

How often should my child have tutoring?

Accepted Answer

We recommend two sessions per week for tutoring. This helps your child build momentum, stay on track, and make meaningful progress without feeling overwhelmed. The best plan depends on your child's needs — and we're here to help you find it.

Question 7

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?

Accepted Answer

Yes — online tutoring can be just as effective as in-person, especially when it's 1-to-1 and tailored to your child's needs. Many families actually prefer online tutoring because it's more flexible, easier to schedule, and gives them access to a wider range of expert tutors — not just the ones nearby. The key is finding a tutor who knows how to connect with kids and make learning fun, even through a screen — and that's exactly what we do at Dojo Tutor.
