Potomac, Maryland, July 9, 2009 - Learn Without Limits, LLC, has created a new style of math tutoring, Focused Tutoring, that is one-tenth the cost of traditional tutoring and is just as effective.

Several factors have converged to create Focused Tutoring. Learn Without Limits has spent the last five years refining its math tutoring system to create an instant 24/7 tutoring service with highly skilled math tutors at an inexpensive cost per hour.

Learn Without Limits has also released the Math Lab tool as part of Moby Math where students can receive immediate feedback while doing their math homework. In addition, students can access videos with instructions given by master teachers, interactive manipulatives that help students visualize math concepts, and audio step-by-step interactive explanations. These tools greatly reduce the need for tutoring.

However, when a student is confused and needs help, Focused Tutoring is available to help the student become unstuck.

Focused Tutoring's name arises from its short focused sessions that are now possible because of the Math Lab. In the Math Lab, a student sees the solution of the problem after submitting his or her answer. If the student is still confused, the student clicks the "Ask Tutor" button and the problem and the solution are transferred to a whiteboard. The student asks questions to the tutor in the chat window and the tutor answers the question in the chat and uses the drawing tools in the whiteboard to illustrate the answer.

An hour of tutoring only costs $14.95 and usually covers 5 or 6 focused tutoring sessions. Students believe Focused Tutoring is a "life saver" and become motivated to do their homework. Teachers like that their class is able to progress smoothly with prepared and motivated students and administrators appreciate that Focused Tutoring makes differentiated instruction affordable.
