We understand how important it is not just to find a tutor for your student, but to find the right tutor. That is why we put our tutors through a thorough screening and qualification process to ensure they will produce results for our students. While some private tutoring companies will use high school and college students as tutors, our focus is building a staff of tutors in Stone Oak who are certified teachers, college degreed professionals and/or highly experienced in-home tutors in their respective subjects.

Don't let a revolving door of different tutors and teaching methods at some private tutoring companies hold your student back from the success that is just a call away with Club Z!.

Our private tutoring services are normally conducted in the comfort and privacy of our client's homes. Most of our clients enjoy the convenience of private, in-home after school tutoring because it removes the hassle of traveling to and from an after school tutoring center. However, it is not uncommon that our clients request that we tutor at public libraries and similar locations, and our home tutors near you are more than happy to accommodate that. We have found that the long-term results are much stronger with in-home tutoring than with private tutoring at another location. Why? It's important for students to develop good learning and study habits at home...not just at school or the library. It's easiest to teach this when a student is used to focusing and being productive at home and used to ignoring the distractions that exist in any normal home. Our goal isn't just to find a tutor for your student for one subject. It's to teach your student effective productivity skills for life, and the ability to work well at home is one of these skills.

Yes! Many after school tutoring companies use a standard program for every student that goes over every principle or concept, no matter the skill level or what the student has learned in school. We know that this can be a strategy for disaster, since not all schools and teachers are the same. It's easy to find a tutor who can review the same concepts with every student, no matter what. Our goal isn't to do what's easy. It's to do what's right. We focus on developing a private tutoring plan that is unique to the student's needs in their grade, subject and curriculum. That is why we work with the student's specific school curriculum to determine the best course of action and the best structure for your student's after school tutoring sessions. We will focus on the homework schedule and upcoming tests to ensure the student is staying on track in school, while approaching each day with the confidence they need to succeed. Every student is different. Outside of Club Z! of Stone Oak, it's difficult to find tutors near you who are willing to treat your child as the individual he/she is...because most other tutors have their hands tied and are married to one private tutoring style, mandated by their tutoring centers, whether they like it or not.

No, you do not have to sign a contract. At Club Z!, we believe that we should earn your business with every private tutoring session and do not require the signing of long-term contracts to use our services. Our confidence in our tutors near you and our processes to produce results is what allows us to offer this no-obligation business model, when most in the industry do not. As with any business, we do have an agreement that outlines the details of the relationship, but this is not a long-term tutoring services contract. Part of the agreement explains how to cancel or suspend your private tutoring services. If you're shopping and considering other private tutoring services companies, be sure to read through anything they give you to sign. Many companies lock in their clients long-term with no way to get out of the contract. The only instance with us where there may be some sort of contract involved is when a special or offer is being redeemed for free services.

By working with the school curriculum, we will ensure the student stays on track and we will periodically check with teachers to ensure the grades are consistently improving.
