Frequently Asked Questions
Where do you tutor?
When should I sign up for next semester or school year?
What is the cost of tutoring?
Banyan Tree charges $50/hour for individual tutoring, scheduled at least once each week. This fee includes my preparation time and an invitation for students to text in case of homework difficulty during the week.
If students have unique challenges that require more extensive preparation and research, we can discuss a fair rate.
First, we would work together to investigate the cause of this "freezing", and yes, we can certainly work out proven strategies to help.
I think I understand what I'm doing, but I freeze on tests. Can you help?
All students work directly with me. With administrative and professional support, I am the sole individual and group tutor for Banyan Tree. This website often uses the word 'we', which refers to the fact that I can't do this on my own. I acknowledge and greatly appreciate many people's expertise and skills to achieve excellence in education.
Will I work with Michele or other tutors?
Banyan Tree is currently booking for Fall 2025 and Winter 2026 semesters, as well as beyond.
I switched to online tutoring online in 2020 and decided to continue tutoring online, as I am confident that I provide the same or a higher level of tutoring as I did when working face-to-face.
