Question 3

Do you offer in-person tutoring, online tutoring, or both?

Question 5

How often do students typically meet with their tutor?

Accepted Answer

Most students meet once or twice per week. The right frequency depends on the student's goals, current challenges, and schedule. We'll discuss this during the free consultation and adjust as needed over time.

Question 6

Do you offer a free consultation before committing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every new family begins with a free 20-minute consultation. We use that time to understand your child's current level, discuss your goals, answer your questions, and determine whether we're the right fit. There is no obligation.

Question 7

What are the tutor's qualifications?

Accepted Answer

The tutor holds a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from the University of West Florida and a Master's in Teaching (M.Ed.). She spent years teaching math in a public high school classroom before transitioning to private tutoring. She also homeschools her own children.

Question 8

Is the tutor a homeschool parent herself?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The tutor homeschools her own children. This means she understands homeschool curricula, the rhythm of home-based learning, and the unique dynamics of educating your own child in a way that most tutors cannot.

Question 9

What is your teaching philosophy?

Accepted Answer

The core belief is that every child has God-given capacity to understand and appreciate mathematics. Sessions are patient, adaptive, and child-centered — focused on building genuine understanding rather than rote memorization. The goal is not just correct answers but real confidence.

Question 10

Is Transformative Learning Co. a faith-based tutoring service?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Faith is integrated naturally into the approach — not as a separate lesson, but as the underlying conviction that learning is participation in the renewal of the mind (Romans 12:2). Sessions are appropriate for Christian homeschool families who want instruction that aligns with their values.

Question 11

Do you work with homeschool students specifically?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Transformative Learning Co. is built specifically for homeschool families. The tutor is a homeschool parent herself and understands the unique needs, schedules, and dynamics of home-based education.

Question 12

Can you work alongside our existing homeschool curriculum?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. Sessions are designed to complement whatever curriculum you're using. We support your approach rather than replacing it — reinforcing concepts, filling gaps, and helping your child advance within the framework you've chosen.

Question 13

Do you have experience with Saxon, Teaching Textbooks, or Math-U-See?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We have experience working with students using Saxon, Teaching Textbooks, Math-U-See, and other popular homeschool math curricula. If you're using a different program, just let us know during the consultation.

Question 18

How much does tutoring cost?

Accepted Answer

Question 19

What is your cancellation policy?

Accepted Answer
