Middle school is when schoolwork starts to get serious. There are more classes, more homework and more independence, and the habits students build now carry into high school.
Tell us about your student, and we’ll match them with a Stanford tutor who fits.
Help with the work, and the habits
Our tutors are current and former Stanford students who help with middle school math, English and writing, science and history. They also help students with organization, planning and study skills, which are often just as important as the subject itself.
What parents say
“[Our tutor] knew his subject matter but also knew how to engage and motivate my son which no teacher or his parents have been able to do as successfully. Perfect fit to jumpstart my son’s new habits and attitudes towards math.”
Joyce M.
“It turns out my son also needed help staying organized with all his assignments, something that the tutor helped with as well.”
Amy C., Palo Alto
Many students find it easier to ask questions and build confidence with a tutor who’s only a few years older and was in their shoes not long ago.
Getting ready for high school
For students applying to independent high schools, we also offer ISEE, SSAT and STAR prep. For everyone else, we help make the jump to high school a smooth one.
Local middle schools
We’ve tutored students from middle schools across the Peninsula, including JLS, Greene, Fletcher, Hillview, La Entrada, Challenger and St. Raymond.
Sessions are one-on-one, at your home or online from anywhere. Working at home lets students practice the routines they’ll keep using on their own.
