Assistance is frequently necessary when studying for a test, rising from a low seat, or maintaining composure after receiving shocking news on a tightrope. Seek out a helping hand or net with today's Groupon: for $49, you get one skills assessment and three 60-minute tutoring sessions at the Tutoring Club in Boardman (a $180 value).

The Tutoring Club specializes in custom one-on-one tutoring sessions to enhance academic subjects, college prep, and study skills for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. The skill assessment diagnoses each student's challenges and assesses his or her current knowledge before charting a brave new path toward wisdom. Over the course of the tutoring sessions, instructors focus and build on students' existing strengths to shore up knowledge and intellectual resourcefulness, closing academic gaps faster than front doors on vacuum salesmen.

The TutorUp program elevates students to perform at grade level in a variety of subjects, while standard tutoring sessions cover math, reading, and writing. Tutoring is also available for specialized tracks, such as college prep, study skills, and shot putting gelatin molds. Tutors will consider their jobs successfully completed when students achieve the confidence to work and study without assistance.
