Brain Sparks Tutoring

Tutor

At Brain Sparks Tutoring, our focus is to facilitate the academic success of students grades 3rd through 12th. Our company achieves this through regular assessment of skill and growth, individualizing plans and goals in order to fill the gaps in understanding, collaborating with families, ensuring quality by offering the guidance of licensed teachers, and cultivating trusting relationships with each student. We aim to provide a greater range of options for families that, otherwise, are faced with few educational opportunities outside of the public school community. With the implementation of these goals, BST fosters positive attitudes around academic learning.

Brain Sparks Tutoring adheres to the philosophy that every student can learn if given the opportunity to do so in ways that are appropriate and match individual styles, strengths, and interests. At BST, we begin the process by assessing the strength of each student and building on those strengths to develop skills and confidence. Through this style and philosophy, the tutors at BST are able to foster trusting relationships with individual students in a nurturing environment. Learning in a safe place is the key to success in the attainment of skill and knowledge. Read more

    I can't say enough good things about Brainsparks. Stefanie is a vital partner in my son's success in school. She is able to support him in the most respectful of ways, and from her he can absorb complex concepts that he misses in the classroom. I'm grateful to have found her

    My kids have done so well in school since working with Stephanie at Brain Sparks! Both of their report cards this past quarter were stellar! Her attention to detail and her approach is solid, and best of all, my kids love her and look forward to working with her!

    Stefanie is a wonderful tutor and teacher. She has been tutoring my son in Math for 2 years now as he has moved from 8th Grade to 9th Grade at Benson High School. He now has a solid "B" in Geometry, when before he was struggling in all aspects of Math. She communicates well with us and his teachers and gives us good feedback on what he should be working on. You will be very happy if you use her for your son or daughter.
