ABOUT US
Scholarly Tutorial Services was started in 2004. At that time, general tutoring was offered in a variety of subjects in mathematics and the sciences. At the present, mathematics is our chosen specialty for its where we can serve students the best!
As its founder, my history with tutoring began well before that time. Based on word of mouth, I would get clients even in high school. Entering university left little time for tutoring, however, I reengaged my desire to tutor from time to time. In addition to currently working for myself, I have worked for two larger tutoring franchises (Varsity Tutors, Mathnasium).
This span of experience has led to a number self-learning episodes, always asking myself how can I tutor better? The latest iteration of this is the website you see here! I hope to serve your mathematics education needs in the most professional way I can!

PS. The following to the end of the page is how the whole process works!
BEFORE MAKING A TUTORING RESERVATION
We pride ourselves at being exceedingly organized! To get started, we center our activity around a tutoring contract. In total we require 3 fifteen minute consultations to be set up to discuss your needs, and the tutoring contract. Here is how to start!
Make sure to setup a free 15 minute consultation! Just click the green Reserve button at the top. There you can choose a Consultation Zoom/Phone Call. You may want to down load the tutor contract before, to ask any questions concerning it.
After initial discussion during the first 15 minute consultation, we ask you to make a second. This is also free! There will discuss any questions on the tutoring contract. For the last part, we ask you make a third (again free) consultation appointment, where we can get sign off to begin tutoring.
MAKING A TUTORING RESERVATION
Once a tutoring contract has been signed off on, you can proceed to make tutoring reservations!
Making a reservation is easy and relies on paypal! Once set, you do have the ability to cancel it. If enough notice is given, the refund is 100%! However, as the day for the appointment approaches, the amount of refund decreases.
Also, if you make a reservation with a lot of notice, then a reduced rate is offered! Reservations with less notice are possible, but cost slightly more.
Our standard methodology is to require at least 3 days notice! This is so that we can prepare adequately to be the most cost effective for you are client!
AFTER YOU MAKE A RESERVATION
Subsequent of a reservation, please send 1 or more sample problems that interest you. It will give us a basis for the tutoring session. I am fairly confident in my ability to help you, but my own working of the sample problems gives me further confidence I can provide the greatest value. I want your payment to be worth it! And I will do my best to insure that. My own work of the sample problems is covered in the cost of the session. I actually enjoy any practice!
A look at the sample problems also allows me to evaluate whether I am a match for tutoring you. In the event I find the help you need is outside of my expertise, I will gladly refund your reservation fee.
HOW TO SEND SAMPLE PROBLEMS
Just use the upload feature. At the top menu, it is at Student,Upload.
To upload, however, you need to be a registered math client of Scholarly Tutorial Services. To do be registered, you need to make an appointment and prepay through paypal.
THE TUTORING SESSION
You will get an email with your zoom details upon making a reservation. In it, is a link to change or delete the zoom meeting. Zoom sessions are recorded and you are welcome to record them too!
SATISFIED/UNSATISFIED WITH SESSION
If for any reason, you are unsatisfied with how the zoom session went, you can confidently request a refund. One or both parties can decided to continue further tutoring from there. However, if you are satisfied, you are more than welcome to schedule future sessions! We work hard for repeat customers, and to earn good/great testimonials!
