Tutoring ServicesEarn your wings and take flight with our personalized tutoring! We provide private, semi-private and small group tutoring for Math, Language Arts, Science, Social Studies, and Spanish for PreK-12th Grades. See below for our program approaches and pricing.
We also offer test-prep classes for students taking the ACT/SAT and adults needing help with the math skills required for nursing, culinary school, firefighting, etc. |
Individualized Learning Plan
Our tutoring programs begin with a comprehensive assessment of the focus subject (math, reading, writing, etc.) to determine your child's strengths and struggles. We then develop a customized learning plan that fits your child's needs. The learning plan is updated as your child progresses and periodic progress reports help you compare your child's "take-off" vs. "landing."
Session Length
If you're anything like us, you like non-stop direct flights and consider layovers a waste of time! We value your time (and money) and have find-tuned our sessions to be effective and efficient. Based on years of experience working with kids of all ages and abilities, we offer 30-minute sessions for 1-on-1 tutoring, 45-minute sessions for semi-private tutoring, and 60-minute sessions for small pods. You'd be surprised the impact of just 30 minutes a week!
Based on the assessment, a student's Individualized Learning Plan may suggest twice weekly sessions or intensive week-long sessions in the beginning. Think of these like adding a jet booster which propels you forward quickly, but isn't used all the time!

At-Home Practice
We provide optional "take-home" exercises to reinforce what was learned in the sessions and so that you, the parent, can connect with your child and see what they have learned. Kids love to "teach" their parents the tricks and tips and parents enjoy seeing their kids "take flight"!
Learn to Fly and then Soar to Success!
Is your child growing further and further behind in math? Have you heard your child say, "I hate math. I'm no good at it!" Or do you have an advanced child who needs to be challenged? Top Flight Tutoring is here to help! Our first focus is building a strong mathematical foundation. Elementary students "earn their wings" by mastering math facts and then "earn their stripes" by mastering more complex operations such as working with decimals, fractions, and integers. We work with student's current school work, as well as reviewing previous strands and introducing upcoming concepts. We teach multiple strategies that work with the student's strengths to build confidence and develop the student's ability to work independently. From counting numbers, to adding fractions, to integrating functions, we've got you covered!
Our proven approach to teaching reading and writing starts with a love of literature and story telling. Beginning readers fill a "suitcase" with new words they've learned, get to "take off down the runway" when they've mastered phonemic sounds and high frequency words, and and their passport stamped when they've moved up a reading level. Our reading system develops avid readers while building your child's vocabulary and honing skills in decoding, comprehension, and inference. Our all-encompassing writing program develops passionate writers, encouraging students to build their vocabulary and develop their writing-voice before working on writing formats and the structure of writing, which all too often snuffs out a child's desire to write. Don't be surprised if your previously reluctant writer wants to become an author!
Most of our students find their way to us for math and language arts tutoring. Soon after experiencing the success of those programs, they ask, "Can you help with ___________ (insert subject)?" Our clients become loyal frequent flyers, who appreciate not having to look for another company and getting to know a different tutor. Our sessions can cover everything from Biology to Chemistry to Physics, from Geography to Economics to Government, from Spanish to Sign Language, to standardized test prep, and entrance exams, and everything in between! We are the only tutoring center in the Bay Area providing personalized tutoring in all-areas of instruction to all ages!
