    • Reviews': See what people are saying on yelp.
    • Palos Verdes California Credentialed Redondo Beach and Torrance Teacher tutors available for private tutoring: Each teacher is an expert on what a student should know at various K-5th grade levels and how to catch them up if they are behind. Stephanie and Paulina are both available for in home private lessons for students in the K-5 grade range; both have extensive experience with special needs students.
    • Common Core.:.Our tutors know it and will explain it to your student.
    • Rates:Rates are 60-75 per hour for most classes. For individual in-home tutoring sessions with Joseph please text or email for a quote.
    • We currently offer virtual Zoom lessons and in person tutoring. Most of the tutors do both in person lessons and zoom virtual lessons. For middle school and older it is a matter of your personal preference. We all use virtual white boards that both student and teacher can write on; this makes virtual tutoring quite appealing for students at the middle school age or older. The newest zoom white board features are amazing and continue to get better with each new version that comes out. K-5 lessons are in person only (unless you insist) as we have found virtual is not ideal for that age group. It is up to you whether you prefer to use masks or not for the student and tutor. Most of the tutors are ok with either option.
    • No bulk of lessons required: The first hour is guaranteed. If you arent happy you get your money back. Afterward there is a one hour minimum with each lesson; otherwise simply pay as you go with no bulk purchase required




    Welcome to our web site for SB Tutors. Lessons are conducted at your home or a convenient meeting location in Torrance and Redondo & Manhattan Beach. Virtual is always an option as well. We serve the cities of Redondo Beach, Palos verdes and Torrance. Our instructors have been serving the South Bay since 2004. College application essay help in Redondo Beach and Palos Verdes is available from our Language arts instructor Alida and our math and English instructor Joseph. Joseph also tutors math for test prep such as SAT and ACT, as well as grammer for these tests.



    The tutors you see here have earned a spot because of their amazing results with prior organizations, and have kept their spots due to consistently great reviews from students and parents. Personality is one key element to effective tutoring. You will find empathy and humor in great abundance in our tutors! Remember that students do not hate math or any other subject. They hate the feeling of not understanding it, of pressure to understand it without the tool to do so.

    Our core philosophy is that every student learns uniquely and must be taught uniquely. Some students are more visual than other students. Some get math anxiety while others can actually be overconfident and indeed need to study more prior to their tests. You can doa zoom interview with the tutor prior to the first lesson if you wish as well.

    Joseph's subjects include statistics AP, algebra, precalculus, geometry, English, Chemistry, and middle school math and other subjects in Palos Verdes and Torrance areas. He is familiar with the Ti-83/84 calculator backwards and forwards and can show your student how to use the varius features of the Ti83/84 calculator for statistics, precsalculus, and other classes. For the classes of statistics AP and precalculus a well rounded knowledge of this calculator is essential for success.


    My name is Joseph Tillotson. I began giving math lessons in Palos Verdes as a faculty member at Marymount University in 2004. I also began tutoring privately in homes in Redondo Beach and Palos Verdes that same year. Many of my students had and have special needs. It was great to see confidence levels grow and see academic progress once they had better explanations of the math concepts they were studying.
