Tutor Pace – Online Tutoring that is Affordable, Simple,
and Always Available

Tutor Pace is an online tutoring service that helps students from kindergarten to college via online tutoring sessions. All of their tutors are certified to ensure subject mastery and all tutors are subject to a stringent third-party background check (we’re very happy about this). Students have the option of interacting with instant live tutors or they can schedule a tutoring session with a preferred (favorite) tutor. Tutor Paceoffers tutoring support for a wide range of subjects including:

• Math: Calculus, Algebra, Statistics and more.
• Science: Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Biology and more.
• Computer Science: Including many computer languages.
• English: Essays, Research Papers, Reading, Writing and more.
• History: American History, World History, and Geography.
• Accounting: Basic Accounting, Managerial Accounting, Cost Accounting and more.
• Economics: Microeconomics and Macroeconomics.

Parents can monitor student progress and feedback through the account section of the Tutor Pace website, and detailed progress reports are emailed monthly to the parents.

Enrollment is easy and the cost options are exceptional. You can try it out for two hours ($14.99) or a week ($34.99) – there are no long term commitments.

In addition to tutoring, Tutor Pace offers:

• The Tutor Pace Ask Questions, is a question-and-answer platform where students can find answers to their questions that they have been unable to find using other resources. Each student is able to see another student’s answers and learn through the exposure to different perspectives.
• General academic help in the form of formula info, math calculators, answer/worksheets, and more.
• A Tutor Pace blog– with articles such as 10 Great Online Reading Resources for Parents and Kids (FREE).
• The Tutor Pace Free Diagnostic Tool offers students an opportunity to try out completely free SAT/ACT practice tests so they can discover their strengths and weaknesses.

• Many subjects are offered
• It’s available to virtually all ages
• Students have access to experienced online tutors, that have been background checked

• After a session is completed, registered students can record and replay their sessions for studying or refreshing on any subject (very nice)
• Parents can monitor student progress and feedback -detailed progress reports are e-mailed monthly to all parents
• The extras mentioned above (questions & answers,

math, calculators, etc.)

• It’s an easy sign up
• The cost options – the tutoring is inexpensive (some services charge so much more!) and there are no long term commitments
