Yes, and for many students it is even more effective. Online tutoring allows us to use interactive tools like shared whiteboards, real-time document editing, and screen sharing that make learning more visual and engaging. Students can work from the comfort of their own space, which often helps them feel more relaxed and focused. Sessions are easy to schedule, there is no travel time, and resources can be shared instantly for extra practice. Parents also appreciate that they can get quick updates after each session. With the right structure and strategies, online tutoring offers all the benefits of in person support plus the flexibility and convenience that today’s students and families need.

Total Tutoring focuses on building executive functioning skills, which are the mental processes students use to manage school successfully. This includes improving organization, time management, and study habits, while also working through homework in a way that teaches independence. We help students break down large projects, plan their week, prioritize assignments, and communicate with teachers when they need clarification. We also teach them how to approach challenging subjects on their own, problem-solve when they feel stuck, and develop effective study habits.

Subject Tutoring, on the other hand, is focused on mastering specific subjects and concepts. We target areas like math, science, English, or history, making sure the material truly clicks by teaching it in a way that matches how your child learns best. While we may still include some skill-building, the main goal is to strengthen understanding, fill knowledge gaps, and help your child feel confident in that particular subject.

We personally match students with tutors based on the student's preferences, goals, and availability. This personalized approach ensures a tailored tutoring experience that helps the student achieve their academic aspirations and reach their full potential.

Ali has extensive experience supporting students with learning differences, especially ADHD and dyslexia. At Total Tutor, we believe every student learns differently, and success starts with understanding the whole student, including their strengths, challenges, learning style, and mindset about school. We look at how the student processes information, organizes their work, and approaches problem solving. From there, we create practical, personalized strategies that address their unique struggles, whether that means breaking down assignments into manageable steps, building routines that stick, or finding learning techniques that make concepts finally click. Our goal is to equip them with tools they can use both in and out of the classroom.
