How does Online tutoring work?
First, Ramamath will starts with assessing each child to find out where the gaps are.
After she assesses the child, we chats with the parent and lets him/her know what we are noticing.
We come up with a customized plan for your child that will close the gap quickly for him or her and then we meet with your child weekly.
Every 3 months, we reassesses the child to find out what gains have been made and what changes need to be made to the instruction to continue to close the gap or the advanced level.

Are the online sessions are as effective as In person sessions?
Online tutoring sessions are equivalent if not better than in person sessions. Zoom, which is the audio/visual system that I utilize, offers an extremely reliable platform that allows the student and myself to complete the lesson just as if it were in person. Using shared screen capabilities and an online writing tablet, concepts can be conveyed to the student with ease. One of the benefits of online lessons is the ability to record the sessions. This feature allows the student to review the lesson at any time if they have questions about concepts that were covered.
How long are online tutoring sessions?
Online tutoring session length is determined by a couple of factors.
1. Child’s age
2. Child’s attention span
3. Child's level.
3. Schedule
sessions usually lasts about 45-50 minutes, it includes the development of personalized assignments to target specific problem areas that the student is struggling with.

Do you offer summer tutoring?
Yes, we offer summer tutoring.
I work all year long and work hard to tailor a summer math and reading programs specifically for your child.
Summer is the time of year where kids will suffer from summer math loss if they are not consistently practicing.
It is important to us that my students do not miss out on this opportune time to close the gap and be secure in math for the following school year.

What age groups do you work with?
We work with students in elementary, grade 3 and up through college. By seeking tutoring at an early age, students can improve their competence which has a positive correlation on their confidence. Improving learning efficiency and developing good study habits leads to less stress in future classes.
How are the online sessions are conducted?
Online tutoring sessions are hosted via a program called Zoom. After an online session is scheduled, a confirmation email will be sent to the student and parents notifying them of the lesson. Included in the email will be a link to the session. All the student needs to do is click the link and the online session will begin. No need to create a username or download any programs
Is academic tutoring only for students that are struggling?
Absolutely not! While I primarily help students who have gaps in their understanding, I also encourage students who are doing well to work with me so that they can get ahead and improve their learning efficiency.
ACT/SAT/PSAT PREP TUTORING QUESTIONS
When should I start preparing for ACT / SAT/ PSAT ?
Students should begin preparing for the ACT at the end of their sophomore year of high school. At this age, students have been exposed to many of the core math and English courses. By starting early, students put themselves in a great position to learn and master the material without the pressure of a strict deadline. I recommend that students strive to obtain their best ACT score during their Junior year so that they are free to handle all of the other obligations that come with being a senior (college applications, scholarship submissions, volunteer work, and individual coursework).
I have a 4.0 GPA, but can't score well on the ACT. Why couldn't I do better?
Even if a student is a high performer in school, this does not always correlate to great scores on the ACT. What parents need to realize is that the content that students learn in school is not directly related to the content the that ACT tests students on. A great score on the ACT is a result of how well the student has prepped for the test which consists of a variety of English rules, math formulas, and data interpretation questions. In addition to improving competency of the material, students need to learn how to focus on what the questions are asking them to do. The ACT is an expert at baiting students to choose the wrong answers. If students learn the ACT’s tactics they can avoid a variety of common errors.
