Back to your human tutor

Results go back to your human tutor, to plan the next lesson.

  • Did this week: Drafted 2 body paragraphs, revised thesis twice
  • Focus next: tightening transitions between paragraphs

Why we teach this way

One lesson a week fades fast without practice. Your child's AI teaching assistant reinforces every lesson daily, so it actually sticks.

Repeats every week

Simple monthly pricing

More tutoring hours for your money.

A traditional, human-only tutor costs more and gives you fewer hours. LessonOrca pairs a weekly live session with an AI teaching assistant, so your money goes further.

Everything, in one place

We cover the whole week, not one hour of it.

The session

An experienced human tutor teaches every lesson, one on one with your child.

Between sessions

A personal AI teaching assistant gives 24/7 help the moment your child is stuck.

Practice

Built around your child and what they're working on, not generic worksheets.

Progress

See how your child is doing, in plain language, any time you want.

What you get access to

Two portals, one system.

Your child gets a place to learn. You get a clear window into it.

For you

Session report · Tuesday
  • What we did: revised her thesis statement, then outlined the essay together
  • How Maya learns: thinks out loud before writing; talking through an idea first helps her commit it to paper
  • Watch for: she has strong ideas but rushes past evidence, we're slowing that down

The difference

Why LessonOrca?

Traditional tutoring

One hour a week, then silence.

  • Often a different human tutor every few months
  • Capped at one hour a week
  • Generic worksheets that don't know your child
  • You're left guessing whether it's working
LessonOrca

The same human tutor, plus an AI teaching assistant all week.

  • The same human tutor every session, not a rotating roster
  • More than one hour a week of real teaching
  • An AI teaching assistant for practice in between, built around what your child needs
  • Plain-language progress you can see any time

What families are saying

Help any day of the week, not just at the next session.

Honestly the best tutoring we've found. My son can get help any day of the week when he's stuck on homework, not just at his one weekly session. That made a huge difference for him.
Priya M. parent of an 8th grader
Waleed figured out where my son was struggling almost right away. He also checked in and helped him during the week, not only during their sessions. We were so grateful for that.
Sadia R. parent of a 10th grader
Abhiraam really understood my daughter. He taught her the way she learns instead of using the same approach for everyone, and she could ask him questions during the week whenever she needed help.
Elena T. parent of a 9th grader
This is the first time I've actually known what my child was learning. They gave me my own login, so I could see every session and every practice assignment. Such peace of mind.
Marcus D. parent of an 11th grader
We've paid five times this price for less. The tutors really know the material, everything is built around my son specifically, and he can get help any day of the week instead of waiting for his next session.
Renee K. parent of a 12th grader

Names changed to protect family privacy. The experiences are real.

Common questions

The things parents ask first.

Is my child taught by AI or a real person?
A real, experienced human tutor teaches every session. Between sessions, an AI teaching assistant helps your child practice the work their human tutor assigned, and gives your human tutor a clear picture of how they're doing. The AI teaching assistant supports the teaching. It never replaces it.
What does the AI teaching assistant actually do?
It guides your child with questions instead of handing over answers, so they build real understanding, and it's there whenever they're stuck. Everything it does is visible to your human tutor.
Do I have to manage any of this?
No. Your human tutor sets the plan, the AI teaching assistant handles practice between sessions, and you can see how your child is doing in plain language any time.
What if the first session isn't a fit?
Then you don't pay for anything beyond it. No risk to find out.
Do you offer any discounts?
We sometimes run limited-time offers for new families. Ask about it on your free consultation call. One-time, first month only, when available.
