Welcome to Palos Verdes Tutor. If you are seeking an in home credentialed teacher for K-5 you came to the right place. If you need virtual or in home tutoring for k-12, college, or test prep you also came to the right place. The tutors keep over 80 percent of the revenue they earn during lessons. This allows us to attract and keep the very best. Lessons are conducted at your home or at a convenient location such as the public library. Virtual lessons are also available, with nearly all tutors doing both. K-5 students are an exception. We only do in person for this age range as virtual does not work well for them in our experience. If you insist on virtual for this age group we will give it a try and see how it goes but experience has shown in person to be superior.

My name is Joseph Tillotson. I began tutoring on the math faculty at Marymount University (then Marymoutn College) in Palos Verdes in 2004. I was the tutor special needs students would often be referred to and I loved helping them. Many were at a middle school math level while in their second year of college. As someone who dealt with varying levels of ADD as a kid I understand what it is like to have trouble paying attention or to have my mind wandering while I am trying to focus. I enjoyed the challenge of helping to explain math to them and of helping to build their confidence levels. Many simply had trouble focusing on what teachers were saying and needed someone to "speak their language". I began doing private tutor lessons in Palos Verdes that same year and brought in more tutors in the following years. The students I worked with at the college were often special needs students for math. I enjoyed helping them to become more confident and successful with their math classes. Many students were lacking confidence, and once confidence was established progress and increased study time often followed. I saw that the lack of confidence often was the result of them not finding anyone who could explain the math to them in a way that made sense. Other psychological and emotional factors were often present. I witnessed highly effective tutors as well as the opposite while at the tutoring center at Marymount and learned much of what made a tutor effective or not. I have sought out only those tutors who are truly gifted at what they do.
