Math Tutoring

I am an elementary teacher and wanted to let you know what I know about Sylvan from other teachers that have 'moonlighted' there. The pay is just over minimum wage for a degreed, certified teacher and you're right, Sylvan is very pricey. I would wait tables before I would tutor for them so they could make that much profit from my services! As for your tutoring needs, ask your child's teacher. There are a lot of teachers that would be great one-on-one to tutor your child based on her individual needs and of course, would have the time during the summer. I think this would give you a much more economical and personal solution. Good luck!

I am a former 4th grade teacher. I think Sylvan is expensive and if you have time to spend w/ her, it's not worth it. I found Sylvan was best for students who were extremely behind and there parents were too busy or impatient to work with them on a regular basis. I would suggest buying a workbook. There are tons out there. If you don't have time, I would be interested in helping her or do the sylvan thing.

Reimer Learning is great it is in Acton and is cheaper

I tutor math and would be available. I'm not sure what Sylvan costs, but I'm open to negotiating fees with you. We can have a meeting and discuss your daughters needs and how I go about meeting those needs at no cost to help you decide if I'm the direction you would like to go. I would also do my first session with her at no cost. I do have a reference if you would like as well.
