At Elevate STEM Tutoring, we understand that investing in quality math education is crucial for academic success. Whether your child wants to ace the SAT, get into STEM, or pursue another career, honing those number skills is important.
During the search for a great tutor, many parents and students ask us about the cost of hiring a math tutor in Colorado Springs. Our personalized tutoring sessions are priced between $70 and $90 per hour, depending on the complexity of the subject matter and the tutor’s expertise. This range reflects our commitment to providing highly qualified instructors who can tailor their teaching strategies to each student’s unique learning style.
What to Expect During a Session
It’s common for people to have unpleasant math experiences. Perhaps you spent your math classes working on worksheets in silence. Or an aggressive teacher drilled you rapid-fire on times tables. Or it could be that you missed a day of class, and then spent the rest of the school year feeling lost and adrift.
At Elevate STEM, we want math to be stress-free. Yes, math can still be challenging, but lessons should be adapted to the student’s personal learning style. Here are a few features that set our math tutoring services apart.
1. Personalized Assessment
Every student begins their Elevate STEM journey with a one-on-one diagnostic assessment. This isn’t a test in the traditional sense—it’s a conversation and skill-check designed to understand where the student currently stands in their math knowledge. We identify key strengths and spot any foundational gaps that may be holding them back. Whether it’s mastering multiplication, building confidence in algebra, or tackling calculus, this initial step ensures we’re meeting the student exactly where they are.
2. Customized Lesson Plans
Following the assessment, our tutors create a strategic and personalized lesson plan tailored to the student’s academic needs and goals. We don’t rely on one-size-fits-all workbooks or generic online programs. Instead, we curate lessons that reinforce classroom learning, fill knowledge gaps, and match the student’s learning style—whether they thrive with visual aids, hands-on activities, or step-by-step walkthroughs. This individualized approach helps students make meaningful progress faster.
3. Interactive Problem-Solving
Math isn’t just about memorizing formulas—it’s about understanding how numbers work in real life. Our sessions include engaging activities, visual explanations, and real-world examples that bring math to life. Whether it’s exploring geometry through architecture or applying percentages to shopping scenarios, we make problem-solving an active and collaborative process. Students build not only skill, but also confidence and curiosity.
4. Progress Tracking
We believe growth should be visible and measurable. That’s why we track each student’s performance over time, from quiz results and homework improvement to their overall confidence and participation. Tutors provide regular feedback to both students and parents, making sure everyone stays informed and involved. We adjust instruction as needed to keep momentum strong and ensure consistent improvement—no stalling, no frustration.
5. Homework Support
Struggling with homework can quickly turn into frustration or falling behind in class. Our tutors work with students to complete assignments while teaching them strategies for understanding and solving problems independently. We don’t just give answers—we teach how to approach the problem, how to think critically, and how to apply learned skills to future challenges. Over time, students become more self-reliant and empowered in their learning.
Flexible Meeting Spaces to Meet Your Needs
At Elevate STEM Tutoring, we understand that every family has different needs when it comes to scheduling and learning environments. That’s why we offer flexible session formats to fit your lifestyle.
