We tutor grades six and up, including college, as well as specializing in SAT and ACT Test Prep. We help with all levels of Math and English, and we are currently working on expanding into more subjects.

We specialize in test prep and help with all sections of both the SAT and ACT exams. Mark has been successfully preparing students for these standardized tests since 2018. For more information on our test prep programs, visit us here.

On Sundays, Mark meets students at their home or another convenient location. Due to tight scheduling, we are limited in the distance we can travel. Mainly, Mark can travel to Decatur, Midtown, Old Fourth Ward, and surrounding areas. We can also arrange an in-person meeting during the week, after school, at my building near Grant Park.

We can meet one-on-one via Zoom. The student and Mark can both share screens and annotate each other’s view. We are happy to provide a free demonstration beforehand of what an online lesson might look like upon request. Note: iPads and Chromebooks do not allow screen annotation in Zoom.

Many students benefit from meeting consistently at the same time every week or every other week. Others need flexibility to meet whenever they need specific help. Either way is fine with us, schedule permitting. Kids have a lot going on, and we like to remain adaptable to fit into their busy schedules.

We tutor on an hourly basis. You are welcome to pay as we go on a lesson-by-lesson basis. We also offer discounts if you choose to purchase and prepay for blocks of hours, but it’s not required.

Yes! When you purchase a block of hours, you can use those for any student you want. You can even donate the hours to a student who is not related if you’d like to.

Yes, and here’s how: the rate for test prep is 50% more than the rate for “regular” math tutoring. So if you purchase a block of hours for regular math, and we do a test prep lesson, we deduct one and a half (1.5) hours from the “remaining hours” for that hour of test prep instead of one. For instance, if you purchased a block of ten tutoring hours, and you’ve used three hours, you have seven hours remaining. If we then do an SAT prep hour, you then have five and a half remaining after that instead of six.

We can provide worksheets and practice problems if needed. If we are helping with what the student is studying in their school, we usually start with what the teacher wants them to work on, and we can find more work to do if we run out of homework.

For regular math help, if the student’s teacher assigns homework, we usually use that. If the teacher does not assign homework, or it’s not adequate for full understanding, we can assign some. For SAT/ACT prep, our system works best when the student does the bulk of their work and studying between sessions, and we’ll assign homework with that goal in mind.

Yes! We can arrange small groups of up to five students for math or writing tutoring or SAT/ACT prep at a discounted group rate. Contact us for more information on small-group lessons.
