Their customer complained “They provide a diagnostic and then tell you they will need 80 sessions with your child, at $70-$85 per hour. I contracted for 20 sessions to see how it went before committing to more, then I was told they still need to "learn" my child. Ridiculous! My daughter was bored after 10 sessions, we stopped after 13 and I asked for a credit for the unused hours.”

Complaints About 4th Grade Math Curriculum in NC Public Schools.
"New Math" Confusion: Parents often find the current math methods (Common Core-aligned) confusing and difficult to support at home without traditional reference materials. But Dr. Kevin L. Powell and Tutor Charlotte can teach the new concepts to your student safely online in your home.

But Dr. Kevin L. Powell and Tutor Charlotte can teach get your student a physical textbook to read and study daily at the lowest cost.
Rigid Pacing: Many school districts enforce strict pacing guidelines that prioritize "covering" the curriculum over ensuring students actually "learn" it. This leaves students who miss or struggle with a specific unit (like fractions) unable to catch up as the lessons build on unlearned concepts. But Dr. Kevin L. Powell and Tutor Charlotte can re-teach the concepts to help them catch up on missing concepts.
Inaccurate Assessments: Historical issues with digital testing platforms, including multiple-choice questions with no correct answers, have led to parental skepticism regarding the accuracy of math grades. But Dr. Kevin L. Powell and Tutor Charlotte will keep extremely accurate records of your students academic progress and you can get the records ANYTIME.
Complaints About the Charlotte-Mecklenburg School System and others in NC.
Achievement Gaps: 2024–2025 data shows a persistent divide; only 43% of 4th graders met math proficiency standards, a 6% drop from pre-pandemic levels. Parents are alarmed that the gap between high-performing and low-performing students is wider than ever. But Dr. Kevin L. Powell and Tutor Charlotte programs help low performing students grade up their skills immediately.
Classroom Management: Large class sizes—some reaching up to 40 students—often lead to one student's behavioral issues disrupting the entire lesson, leaving the remaining students to learn on their own.

Powell and Tutor Charlotte can do 1 on 1 tutoring and give your student the individual attention they deserve for their learning issues.
