will help your children gain academic confidence and earn higher grades. Our online tutors for Lamorinda, Danville, San Ramon, Dublin, and Pleasanton are familiar with and fluent in local school materials and methods.

Our online tutors provide powerful learning and guidance that truly elevates comprehension and subject-mastery skills, even thinking skills. Online tutors teaching students from across the SF Bay Area are being utilized every day, and our virtual tutors at Lafayette Academy are very popular. They are also extraordinarily successful in working with students of all levels – whatever the purpose of their tutoring. Popular tutors who catalyze deep academic progress and success — that’s our daily mission.

Online tutoring for kids in East Bay towns and from across the San Francisco Bay Area is sought for every day as students and parents turn to the power of one-on-one personal tutoring (or shadow classes) combined with the convenience of online meeting. Please call us today or use our online tutoring request form to start.

Our tutors know the Acalanes and Stanley curriculum and how it’s tested. Many of our tutors also know the curriculum at Campo, Las Lomas, Miramonte, JM, and OIS. We utilize a variety of resources including curriculum worksheets and videos that our tutors have compiled based on their extensive experiences with local students.  We know the problems that students typically encounter, and we’re ready for them!

Our Lafayette and Lamorinda tutors have collectively helped thousands of students at Acalanes, Stanley, Miramonte, OIS, Campo, JM, and many of the Lafayette elementary schools.  Online tutoring at Lafayette Academy will feel quite similar to the tutoring people have received for years in our centers.

We make learning engaging, relevant, and fun.  Our tutors use flexible approaches based on each child’s learning to ensure a more custom and effective learning experience. We also give you the flexibility to choose a schedule that works best for you and your child, in one of our learning centers or online.  There are many tutors to choose from, which means there will (almost) always be someone available to help your child. Finally, we are proud of our years-long support of the entire Lamorinda community, including many schools, LPIE, and the Chamber of Commerce (even though networking isn’t our forte).

Lafayette Academy offers the best online tutoring because we’re online and local. Our online tutors are intimately familiar with the schools they serve, even if they live remotely. For years, Lafayette Academy has been the local learning center for various cities in the San Francisco Bay Area. We have brought our local expertise online, creating a new class of tutors: “local, online tutors.”

For “popular” subjects (ones for which we have a lot of demand), we have introduced “tutor leaders” who follow that subject at various schools. Tutor leaders will post relevant information in our private Slack channels, including the best ways to explain complex topics to students.  Often, we will have multiple worksheets for a given topic, so we can help students with different learning styles. Our super tutors also post insights about specific teachers and upcoming tests. If your high school has a Biology teacher who dances to his own drummer, we will know how to help you.

Sometimes, leader tutors rely on other tutors to obtain or create worksheets, videos, and other teaching tools that help our students.  All of this information gathering elevates newer tutors to levels that approach our most experienced tutors. For students, this is hugely important because you can work with any Lafayette Academy tutor and have access to the greatest tutoring worksheets known to mankind.  Hyperbole?  Maybe not.  We have yet to hire a tutor who had worked at another tutoring company with a comparable database! [Note: our curriculum development process is more involved than we have described here because we don’t want to give away all of our secrets.]

We will bring this local approach to new markets as we expand online. For this reason, we are growing surgically, with a focus on school districts using the textbooks that we know best. We hope that our unique approaches to tutoring will inspire new students to bring their friends to Lafayette Academy. Then, we can fully realize our local school-oriented tutoring ecosystem.

Lafayette Academy hopes to become a “local” learning center in all of its markets.

The Best Online Tutoring. Period.

This is a bold statement, but one that we embrace.  When your son or daughter works with an online tutor at Lafayette Academy, he or she is supported by a team of people dedicated to each student’s success. Many tutoring companies claim to differentiate themselves, but in the end, most of their appointments come down to the interplay between a part-time tutor and a student with a lot on his or her mind.
