Q: What are the advantages of selecting a private tutor rather than a tutoring company?

A: While opting for a tutoring company presents benefits like a wide range of topics and increased availability, it's essential to weigh certain drawbacks. Not all companies assure personalized one-on-one sessions, and even if they do, they often come at a premium price. Additionally, there's a risk of being matched with a tutor lacking expertise in the subject matter. At Flow Tutoring, although we specialize solely in math and English tutoring, we guarantee individualized instruction from a seasoned educator with years of experience.

Q: Where will my tutoring sessions take place?

A: Flow Tutoring provides the flexibility of both online and in-person tutoring options. Online sessions are conducted via Zoom for convenience and accessibility. For in-person tutoring, sessions are held at a mutually agreed upon location, conveniently situated near the North Shore suburbs of Chicago, including Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, and Wheeling.

Q: What should I bring to my tutoring session and how can I prepare?

A: If you're unsure about what materials to bring, feel free to reach out for guidance. Typically, it's helpful to bring any course materials you're working on or any additional exercises you'd like to review. Additionally, if you have specific material you'd like assistance with, please share it with us beforehand. This ensures that we can tailor the session to your needs and maximize the effectiveness of our time together.

Q: What is the role of a tutor?

A: A tutor's role is to assist students in their coursework by helping them understand the material and develop effective study strategies. They are not instructors or substitutes for attending class, but they can greatly aid in a student's learning and exam preparation. Tutors provide guidance and support to help students succeed in their academic pursuits.
