  • Payment must be received at least 24 hours in advance of a session in order to secure the time slot. Otherwise, the session will be canceled and we will reschedule. I will always offer an initial consultation, at no cost, to help ensure that the match is right.

  • While I try to be as flexible as possible, I do require at least 24 hours’ notice if you need to cancel or reschedule a session; otherwise, you will be charged for that session. I will do my best to reconfirm all sessions prior to meeting, either by phone or email

  • Refunds cannot be issued for hours already used (that’s one purpose of the free consultation). If you have purchased a single session, you may receive a full refund if you cancel at least 24 hours in advance. For package deals, refunds can be issued for any unused hours on a prorated basis, with the already-used hours assessed at the base rate. For example, if you purchase 10 hours of online SAT tutoring (base rate of $120/hr - 10% discount), your total cost would be $1080. If you only use 5 hours, you would be entitled to a refund of 1080 - 600 = $480.

Policies

All posted rates are per-hour (except for small-group online classes), and sessions typically range from 1-2 hours, depending on your needs and schedule. Sessions may be purchased individually at the rates posted below, or you may opt to purchase a package of hours in advance at a discounted rate (details below). I’m always happy to provide an initial consultation, at no cost, to give us a chance to discuss the most effective approach for your academic needs.
