About our In-Home Tutoring Services

Our Tutoring Background
Edvantage Education offers in-home tutoring throughout Southern California.  We tutor all subjects,
for all ages and grade levels.   In 2003, Edvantage Education was founded by a dedicated teacher and tutor with a belief in the value of education. For the past several years, we have helped countless students throughout Southern California achieve their academic goals!  

Our Tutoring Philosophy
Although the classroom can be a wonderful place for learning, there is no substitute for individual attention
from a caring, qualified tutor. Teachers would love to have the time and resources available to work with each individual child, one-on-one, every day. Due to teacher cut-backs and increasing classroom sizes, this is not always possible.  That is where tutoring comes in! At Edvantage Education, we recognize the role that specialized instruction plays in developing a solid educational foundation.  That's why we tailor each session to your individual student's needs.

Why Not A "Cookie Cutter" Approach?
After all, who doesn't like cookies?  Snack time aside, each student is different.  So why would we try to mold
your student to fit our plan?  We think it should be the other way around!  Some students are auditory learners.
Others benefit from a more hands-on approach.  Does your child need help with study skills and organization? We can help with that too!  In many cases, its not so much what the student is learning as it is how the student
learns. Having a private tutor can improve grades dramatically.  Your child's tutor can help him or her review for quizzes and tests, make sure homework gets done correctly, and above all, help your child to realize his full potential by really learning the material — not just getting by! Working with a private tutor can also increase self-esteem and improve study skills.  As children see their grades improve, their self-confidence increases, along with their test scores!  Read our article on why tutoring works.

Relax -- Help is on the Way!
You guessed it, we come to you!  There is no question that tutoring helps students to improve grades, increase
self-esteem and most importantly, learn!  At Edvantage, we combine our philosophy of tailoring your sessions to each student's needs with an environment comfortable and familiar to them -- their own home!  In order for a student to learn, he or she has to first be in an environment that allows learning to happen.  We feel that a student's home is one of the best places for a student to learn -- away from the distractions of a classroom or other group setting. However, students can also be tutored at a local library or another location, if it is requested.  You might have noticed gas prices lately.  Leave the driving to us!  With Edvantage, you don't pay for parking, and we keep you out of the Southern California traffic!
