A high-quality math assessment provides detailed information about your child’s specific learning needs in the area of mathematics. The results can be used to develop an individualized tutoring plan that effectively targets the mathematical skills essential to continued academic growth and achievement.
The math assessment takes approximately 1 ½ – 2 hours to administer and is divided into two sessions. You will receive a detailed report discussing the results and suggested learning goals. The report will be emailed to you within 5-7 business days (an expedited report is an additional $100 if you need it in less than 5 days) and the evaluator will schedule a 20-30 minute follow-up Zoom session to discuss the results and recommendations.

Jill has been amazing!! She has gone above and beyond for my son. When my son started with her, he was far below grade-level in hiswriting ability, and he hated writing. I spent a year working diligently with him with almost no progress. With Jill, my son’s writing and confidence has improved dramatically! I am incredibly grateful for all that she has done for him.
Working with Jill at Themba Tutors for the past year has been life-changing! As a dyslexic adult, I’ve struggled for years with decoding words, which has created many challenges in social environments and work. She is very knowledgeable, passionate about helping others improve, and patient. Sometimes during our tutoring sessions, I become frustrated with myself because Jill always finds another method to help me understand the concept and keeps encouraging me until I know. I’m glad I have Jill as a tutor. She is very professional, positive, and friendly.
