Private Math, Science & SAT/ACT Tutoring in Dallas

Start with a complimentary 10-15 minute consultation. We’ll go over your student’s situation, recommend a plan, and reserve a weekly time if it’s a good fit.

Most sessions are one hour. Some students who are preparing for exams or want extra practice book longer sessions, but an hour works well for most. Most students meet once or twice a week. For SAT prep, one session per week combined with assigned homework works well. For students who are catching up in class or aiming for a big score increase, twice a week helps speed things up.

Rates for new clients are billed every 4 weeks, not by calendar month.

School subjects (math, science, chemistry, geometry, and academic coaching):

• Weekly plan: $460 every 4 weeks ($115 per session), four lessons, one reserved appointment each week
• Twice-weekly plan: $880 every 4 weeks ($110 per session), eight lessons, two reserved appointments each week
• A single 60-minute lesson: $125

SAT, ACT, and ISEE preparation:

• Weekly plan: $540 every 4 weeks ($135 per session), four lessons, one reserved appointment each week
• Twice-weekly plan: $1,040 every 4 weeks ($130 per session), eight lessons, two reserved appointments each week
• A single 60-minute lesson: $150

The weekly plan is the usual starting point for most families. To start a recurring plan, submit a short request with your student’s subject, grade, neighborhood, and preferred times. Sam confirms a recurring appointment time, then sends a secure payment link. Payment is collected before the first lesson. Paying does not, by itself, reserve a weekly time. The time is reserved after payment, when the recurring appointments are booked. Billing then renews automatically every 4 weeks until you cancel future renewals. Existing clients keep their current rates unless otherwise discussed.

Please give at least 24 hours’ notice to cancel or reschedule a lesson or the complimentary consultation. A timely cancellation can be rescheduled during the same 4-week cycle, subject to availability. If a makeup cannot be fitted into that cycle, the lesson is forfeited and does not roll forward. A late cancellation or a no-show counts as a used lesson on a plan, and is charged for a single lesson. You can cancel future renewals before the next renewal date through the Stripe customer portal or by emailing samdallastutor@gmail.com.

I work with students the way teachers wish they had time to. We slow down on the exact step that isn’t clicking, rebuild the idea clearly, and then practice it until it sticks. Every session is built around your student’s weaknesses and goals.

We start by figuring out where your student stands (for SAT and ACT students, with a free official practice test), then build a clear plan, teach and practice targeted problems (no generic worksheets), and adjust as classes and tests move forward.

For SAT students, each week comes with a structured homework plan that usually adds up to two or three hours of study time. For school subjects, homework is optional and based on the student’s goals.

I offer in-person tutoring across Dallas, Highland Park, University Park, Preston Hollow, and surrounding neighborhoods. Sessions usually take place at The Drey in The Village or the Starbucks on Greenville Avenue, or in your home if preferred.

Yes. Online tutoring is also available and works well for many students. In-person sessions in Highland Park and the Park Cities remain the focus, and families can choose the format that fits best.
