Each SOS Tutoring Crash Course is specially designed to provide a student with the tools needed to successfully complete a specific exam. Each Crash Course is performed by a tutor with a deep knowledge of both the course material and the exam format. The general format of a Crash Course will involve the tutor teaching the pertinent course material of each topic for the exam, followed by the solving of key past exam and specially chosen questions. Each Crash Course is accompanied by a Crash Course package, which contains most of the material the tutor will require throughout the Crash Course. The Crash Courses are held in university classrooms and are usually accomplished over an 8 to 12 hours period, depending on the course.

One must keep in mind that the following is our general template to tutoring and we often modify and customize it to meet the specific needs of the course at hand.

In a SOS Tutoring Crash Course, the tutors will begin by going over the essential theory of each exam topic followed by a "SOS Steps" section*, where we outline the general steps taken to solve specific types of exam questions. We then practice most of the teachings from the course by solving exam style and other specially chosen questions together, which will train the students how to methodically approach and solve different types of questions. We also offer tips & tricks on the material, which can be very useful when in a pressure filled exam situation.

*When required.

All of our SOS tutors go through a detailed screening and interviewing process. Most of our tutors have obtained a minimum grade of A in the course being tutored, have been involved in the course recently, have relevant tutoring experience and possess great communication skills. All of this is required of our tutors to ensure that only the most skilled tutors with a mastered and up-to-date knowledge of the course material and exam format are teaching at SOS Tutoring.

The Crash Course package contains most of the material the tutor will be reviewing throughout the Crash Course. This will allow students to concentrate on listening and participating in the Crash Course and not solely focusing on writing notes. It will also be your study guide between the Crash Course and the exam. All of our packages are continuously updated with the newest material and exams that are available. Crash Course package includes:

Concise review of all key concepts on exam

Full breakdown & explanation of all formulas

Exam style & specially chosen practice problems with step-by-step solutions

Exam tips & tricks

And much more

Crash courses are usually accomplished over an 8 to 12 hours period, dependent on the amount and difficulty level of the course material at hand. The hours are split into two days to three days to prevent the students from overloading with too much information at once. This will also give the students an opportunity to review the material between classes. The Crash Course will usually take place on Saturday and Sunday to avoid mid-week conflicts with school and work.

All SOS Tutoring Crash Courses take place in the professional educational settings of a classroom.

It consists of a private instructor teaching a specific educational subject to an individual or small group of students. Such one-on-one attention allows the tutor to improve the student's knowledge or skills more rapidly than in a classroom setting. At SOS, we offer students the opportunity to get private tutoring in small groups (maximum 4), which effectively reduces the price for each student. However, it is the up to the students to form their own tutorial groups.

You must register for private tutoring on the website. You can find a list of private tutors for all of our courses on our website. You will see a private tutoring link on the left hand side near the bottom. Click on that, choose the course you want from the list then pick a tutor. An email request will be sent directly to the tutor.

SOS Tutoring does not manage or coordinate private tutoring through our organization. However, in an effort to facilitate the search for a private tutor we have developed an online listing of tutors who have met our general standards of quality for people to consult.

As SOS Tutoring is not involved in any part of private tutoring process, we cannot guarantee the timeliness or specifics of any tutor or private tutoring session.

The price of a Crash Course is dependent on many factors, including whether it is a midterm or final Crash Course, the number of hours in the Crash Course and whether the client qualifies for any discounts. Taking these factors into consideration, prices generally range anywhere from 10$-20$ per hour.
