Philosophy

Tutor Time Now Philosophy

Our philosophy was created by Harvard and Berkley graduate, Tatum Hutton. The concept is customizing teaching to meet the needs of ALL students. At the extreme ends of this are students with special needs or learning differences and at the other, gifted students; however, most students fall somewhere in-between these extremes. Our philosophy remains true regardless; we are focused solely on the student's goals, learning style, and academic success.

Group Tutoring pricing is based on the skill level, subjects, and needs of the group.

Please note that tutoring with Tatum directly incurs an additional $15/hr fee.

We have no long-term contract requirements.

Group Tutoring pricing is customized based on the skill level, subjects, and needs of the group. All groups are kept small enough for individualized attention. Please contact us if you are interested in a group that is customized to meet your student’s needs. 

Learning differences or specific circumstances sometimes make the required session time unpredictable for a student; in that case, because we do customize everything for the student’s best interests, we then allow for the longer time slot schedule-wise, and charge you on an hourly basis. This offers the most flexibility, and you only pay for the minimum time your child needs. Some clients prefer this pricing method, but if this is recommended for your situation it will be discussed and included in the contract prior to beginning tutoring.

Features & Benefits
