Students Teaching Students ® provides one-on-one private tutoring through distance learning with a personal tutor.  Each session is taught by a personal tutor in “real time” who is an expert in his/her field.

Our tutors are proficient in Chinese and English.  Our tutors are recruited from Zhengzhou University in Zhengzhou located near Beijing in the Henan Province in China.  All tutors are screened for fluency in English and must be majoring in English or International Business.  In addition, each tutor is required to be in strong academic standing with their university with preference given to individuals who are in the top ten percent of their class.

Furthermore, we provide written curriculum for each student to supplement the work of the tutor along with a recorded audio of each lesson that students can download to their I-Pod, MP3 player, or listen to via their computer for review, practice, and enrichment.  Each lesson is recorded and monitored for accuracy and effectiveness by a member of the staff who is fluent in both English and Chinese.  Feedback is then shared with students and/or parents.
