My son, who is now a junior in high school, has reached that level in math and science where I am absolutely no help to him whatsoever. My husband is a bit more helpful in those areas, but let's face it- we both graduated high school over 20 years ago and most of what we learned in algebra & chemistry is now a distant memory. Being a former teacher (social studies, folks), I can't help but feel guilty and helpless when I see him struggling with a math problem or a chemistry equation. I have struggled for the past year or so on what to do to help when I see him scrambling to understand a concept or to pass a test. In-person tutoring is so difficult for us to do since most of his after school time is already spent at cross country or track practice. Tacking on another hour to his already packed schedule so he can receive some after school tutoring just doesn't seem fair. I mean, a teenager needs a little a time each day to just be a teenager, right? ;) And then there is the cost of private tutoring... don't get me started on that!

But we have finally found a homework/tutoring solution that is quick, convenient, affordable, and efficient with Mentored online tutoring...
