At Emergent Education, we like to take tutoring a step further by equipping students with both the academic knowledge and communication skills that will follow them through every stage of their life.
We focus on not only teaching and improving reading and writing skills but teaching students to be better communicators and create connections through literacy and writing.
When students come to us seeking English or Writing tutoring services, one of the most common things we can diagnose from the start is a negative relationship with reading or writing.
At Emergent Education, we understand how important it is to address this and work to change a student’s mindset early on. Students who claim to not ‘be a big reader’ might struggle with reading comprehension. Students who claim to hate writing may have trouble picking up grammar or struggle to get their thoughts down on paper.
Often, we find students who struggle with one also have difficulty with the other.
English Literature and Writing subjects help create the backbone of communication – and while it isn’t difficult to convey to students how useful communication is in everyday life, the challenge is helping students realize that cultivating these communication skills takes time and practice.
That’s where we come in.

First, we talk about where you are, where you want to be, and what it will take to get there. Together, we’ll design a plan for your learning, setting goals and timeline targets. At each meeting, we will begin by evaluating your understanding, reviewing goals and making adjustments as needed. Then we work on what you have prepared for our session, usually the most challenging problems or assignments that you could not complete alone.
Traditional one-on-one tutoring allows for the most individualized support. Small group tutoring balances that support with more peer-to-peer engagement. Students can teach each other a lot about a subject when given the space and tools to do so. Reach out today to learn more.
