Tutoring That Goes Beyond Knowledge Transfer
We believe that every student has excellence within themselves. Our mission is to draw out the excellence that exists in every student through tutoring that focuses on achieving personal breakthroughs.
Focusing on Personal Growth and Breakthroughs
We help students reshape their ideas and feelings about learning and develop a mindset that embraces continuous learning as a lifelong journey. Our approach empowers students to commit to excellence on a fundamental level and emphasizes personal breakthroughs over knowledge transfer.
Innovative Outreach and Strategic Partnerships
We recognize that there is more than one way to succeed and strive to connect students to diverse pathways for success beyond traditional education. From internships to mentorships, our innovative outreach and strategic partnerships help students find the resources they need to achieve their goals and thrive.

Schedule a virtual meeting where we discuss your student's needs and goals, as well as address any questions you may have.
Our DISC assessment is not an academic assessment or test.
It is 5-10-minute questionnaire that helps us understand your student's personality.
It is a free service provided to students during onboarding and families can keep the results whether they choose to work with us or not.
Review
Our team reviews all gathered information while introducing you to our tools and processes. The previous assessment results and any additional information are used to formulate a personalized learning plan.
Based on our comprehensive review, we pair your student with a tutor who is an ideal fit for their academic and personal development needs.
Once matched, your student embarks on a journey of academic and personal growth, with ongoing support and regular progress assessments to ensure continued success.

What subjects and grade levels do you cover?
Commonwealth Tutoring currently offers tutoring services for students in grades 5-12*, focusing primarily (but not exclusively) on Virginia’s core subjects as defined by the VDOE:
Core curriculum – The body of knowledge that all students are expected to learn in the subjects of English, mathematics, history, social science, and science.
– VDOE Glossary of Education Terms
This includes, but is not limited to math, science, and language arts (reading and writing—literacy). Additionally, we have recently expanded to handle certain foreign languages, test prep, and more. We have plans to expand our subject offerings in the future as we continue to grow.
*In some cases, we will work with students under grade 5 if the student is reasonably able to be tutored online since we are not an in-person program.
Do you offer in-person tutoring services?
No. We are a 100% virtual tutoring program. All students will require a proper internet connection and a quiet environment in order for our sessions to be effective.
Can you offer tutoring sessions in subjects beyond math, science, and English?
While we can certainly attempt to pair your family with the right tutor, please note that as we are in our initial launch phase, there may be certain requests we are unable to fulfill at this time. Rest assured, we are actively working towards expanding our services to meet a broader range of needs.
Do you offer tutoring services for students outside of Virginia?
No. Right now, we only offer our tutoring services to students in the state of Virginia. We do not serve students in other states.
What is the cost structure for your tutoring services?
We offer a flat rate of $50 per hour per student for all our tutoring sessions. This transparent pricing ensures simplicity and consistency in our fee structure.
Can you accommodate students with special needs or learning differences?
While we can certainly attempt to pair your family with the right tutor, please note that as we are in our initial launch phase, there may be certain requests we are unable to fulfill at this time. Rest assured, we are actively working towards expanding our services to meet a broader range of needs.
How do you handle scheduling and rescheduling of tutoring sessions?
Our comprehensive service agreement covers all operational details. We maintain high standards for our tutors, emphasizing punctuality and professionalism. Similarly, we request our clients to maintain comparable standards. Please sign up for an initial consultation to receive a service agreement for your review.
