Private Tutoring By A Professor:
A knowledgeable, creative, & patient tutor for students in grades 5-12+ & adults.
Since 2001, Advantage Learning Center has provided one-on-one assistance in homes or mutually convenient locations to hundreds of students in the Delaware Valley region, at reasonable and competitive rates. We offer SAT test prep, (old and new), academic tutoring in most subjects (middle school and high school), English as a Second Language (ESL), Italian lessons, & computer & cellphone assistance for adults. Many of our students are referrals from parents, guidance counselors, & teachers who have seen our commitment to helping students maximize their learning potential.
History
Established in 2001.
I began Advantage Learning Center after working for several large and small tutoring agencies. While I learned from those agencies, I felt they overcharged for their services (and of course paid me very little). I reasoned that if I opened my own agency, I could charge a more competitive rate, and still make money. Starting a business from scratch, with very little operating capital, is not an easy venture, and I have made some missteps along the way. But I've worked hard to build a client base, and have been rewarded many times with repeat customers and referrals. I enjoy teaching enormously and am gratified to have helped so many students achieve their goals over the years.
