Juniper Street Tutoring recommends lessons 2x a week minimum to see measurable growth and improvement, and 3-4x a week for students with dyslexia or other specific learning disabilities. This is not a hard and fast rule, though, so recommendations on length and frequency will be provided after your evaluation. Rates are specific to the tutor, and the range below that reflect this. Please contact us for a specific tutor's rates. Lessons with tutors that travel to your home or other location will incur a separate $5 travel fee per lesson.

Evaluations
Evaluations are a tool that we use to get the best sense of your student's current abilities. You do not have to have one, but we do recommend it, as it provides very valuable information and informs our work with your student. Evals are not a diagnosis of any learning disability, as only a licensed psychologist can officially diagnose that. We use the evaluation to learn more about the students strengths, weaknesses, goals, responsiveness to tutoring, best approach, and what standards they are meeting for their age/grade. The length and type of evaluation is dependent upon the parent/guardian's concerns and what they desire to get out of tutoring.
