In addition to the individualized instruction that is incorporated into our classrooms, Oak Hill Academy offers individual academic tutoring. This service is intended for students who could benefit from one-on-one assistance and practice in one or more academic areas.
Why Choose Academic Tutoring?
There are many reasons parents choose tutoring for their children. Some parents feel unable to help their children with schoolwork. Others may find their children are more receptive to working through school struggles with another person. Tutoring can help strengthen subject comprehension, boost confidence, and build important learning skills.
