How to get the most out of tutoring
Be physically and mentally prepared for your tutoring session. Make mistakes so we can learn from them! It is through trial and error that we make progress. Tell your tutor when you don’t understand something and ask questions regularly. We ask you to be patient with us as we try different methods and discover what works best for you. We expect you to put in as much time and effort outside of tutoring as is required to meet your goals. Practice what we recommend.

Where does the tutoring take place?
Expanding Abilities Tutoring offers tutoring services in the comfort of your own home. It is sometimes best to learn where you regularly study. Have you ever had the experience of sitting in a classroom a completly absorbing information only to find that when you get to your desk at home you remember nothing? Your tutor can help with this!
Having a tutor come to your home allows more freedom by cutting back the amount of time spent for tutoring by eliminating travel time. With the busy work, school, and extra cirricular activity schedules, the extra time saved is really important.
If you have many distractions at your home, tutors also frequently use local libraries. The Torrance Library at the Civic Center has excellent study rooms that provide the perfect environment for a tutoring session. Our tutors also use the Redondo Beach, Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach, and Palos Verdes Libraries.
Whether you are interested in tutoring in your home or meeting with your tutor at a local library, Expanding Abilities Tutoring can help you to reach your goals. Please contact Melissa Haueter at 310-720-1883 today!
