one-to-one individualized instruction. After
each session our tutors meet with parents to
review the child's progress and provide a
hand written form reflecting the lessons
taught and the child’s advancements.
Furthermore, our tutors provide motivation
and a desire for children to learn concepts
that are geared toward grade level standards
and supported by classroom teachers.

toward state standards for grade level
Our curriculum
is based around the California State
Standards. Preschool, Kindergarten, and
early elementary classes require and expect
children to master several high-level
skills. Tutoring for Tots' curriculum mirrors
these expectations, but puts the concepts
into a context that is fun and achievable
for the child.

Children are given assessments at the first
tutoring session in order to assess their
current level. This provides our tutors with
a starting point and an idea of what
concepts need to be introduced and taught.
Every few weeks assessments are given to
ensure children are progressing.

We also offer educational babysitting for
families and children beginning at the age
of 2. Educational babysitting is similar to
our tutoring but at a much less intense
rate. It is a service that incorporates
learning games and read aloud to children to
stimulate their minds. This service is a
three hour minimum and ranges from $16.00
to $20.00 per
hour. Please contact us for further details.
