Having worked for many years for other tutoring companies both big and small, Tim always felt there must be a more effective way to teach and inspire students than the generic production-line model that corporate tutoring companies use.
With this in mind, he founded Tim McDermott Tutoring & Test Prep under the guiding belief that tutoring should be customized to each student, equipping them with the skills they need to increase their scores, boost their confidence, and develop a lasting appreciation for learning.
As Central Florida's preeminent tutoring center, we believe that tutoring can and should be not only empowering but also enjoyable, for only when students believe in themselves and desire to learn do they reach their fullest potential.

Our Approach
We evaluate each student's learning styles to target the areas with most potential for improvement.
Diagnostic Assessment
We recommend students take a practice test after every 4-6 sessions to prepare for actual test conditions and identify what areas need to be reviewed.
Constant Analysis
We assign homework based on the specific areas where students need to practice and improve.
At-Home Assignments
Our tutors work with students one-on-one using personalized instructional plans on a weekly basis.

"I can't speak highly enough of Tim McDermott Tutoring and how it helped all four of my kids with their college testing!
Not only did my children's ACT and SAT test scores improve, their confidence and time management improved significantly also. I found the tutoring staff very knowledgeable, encouraging, and professional, and my children all looked forward to their weekly tutoring sessions."

"Simply the best tutoring and help you can invest in. Tim helped me increase my SAT score by almost 300 points and gave me the confidence that, with his help and my hard work, everything would work itself out--and it did! No better tutor in Orlando."

I had an AMAZING experience with this company. I worked with Jim for the ACT, and there are so many good things to say!!
Overall, the company really creates good relationships and works WITH the student to help them achieve their goals. They really focus on grasping and understanding the material and guide the student to success.
Not only did my score go up many points, but my confidence with the material increased greatly. They truly care!

"Tim does an outstanding job at getting high school students ready for the SAT and ACT. My kids have enjoyed and appreciated being tutored by Tim. The test results were great, allowing them to enter the colleges of their choice. They also had the opportunity to work with other tutors at his center, who are also highly recommendable. The customer service staff at Tim McDermott Tutoring & Test Prep is excellent. They are prompt to respond, send reminders and are always willing to assist with any questions we have."

"Tim helped both of my students improve from excellent scores to perfect and near-perfect scores. Not only was Tim brilliant, but he consistently set an example of empathic leadership, tenacity, and profoundly good character. Every time one of my children went to a session, I felt like I was entrusting them not just to a teacher but to a role model."
