our Services
Gold Standard Tutors was born out of a need: a need for an agency that would provide for and professionally develop its tutors and a need for tutors to come onboard our founder’s rapidly growing private practice. We collaborate with families to provide a personalized, results-oriented tutoring experience. Committed to the principle that support, care, and inspired effort lead to student success, we are redefining the gold standard for educational services throughout Los Angeles.*
Read on for the basics of our various services - and how to save on your tutoring and maximize benefits with a personalized monthly tutoring package.

k - 12 tutoring
Patient, purposeful, and kind tutoring tailored to exactly what makes your kid unique. We’re in this business because we love to connect, teach, and inspire.
Our tutors range from engineering students to SAG award-nominated actors, but are united by their passion to inspire and teach. We offer specialists in every subject.
Rates depend on age and subject matter.
standardized test prep
Gold Standard Tutors are trained and well-equipped to guide students of all ages through preparation for standardized tests, including the PSAT, SAT, and ACT.
We provide a private user interface where students can access practice tests, a bank of practice questions, and digital overviews of their progress as a part of their individually-catered study process!
executive function
Executive function coaching is scheduled and billed in the same manner as standard tutoring, but our approach is far from uniform.
Efficient executive function is key to academic success, especially for neurodivergent learners. Informed by years of experience working with students with diverse learning differences, our tutors bring patience and understanding to every session. We recognize that every learner is unique, and we take pride in being adaptable to meet individual, specific needs.
As the founder, Ellen’s passion for supporting students with ADHD shines through in our approach. She shares her own experiences, tools, and strategies to empower learners in developing skills for organization, time management, and self-regulation.
Together, we can foster the skills necessary for lifelong success.
