Trusted Tutoring for
Lamorinda students
Why is Lafayette Academy
Your #1 Tutoring Option
Tutors Who Know Your Teen’s Classes and Curriculum
Our tutors already know the curriculum at Acalanes, Campolindo, Miramonte, Las Lomas, and other Lamorinda schools — the pacing, the assignments, the expectations, and the challenges students face in each subject.
That means your child gets clear, confident explanations from someone who truly understands their academic world. Whether your student needs help catching up, staying on track, or getting ahead, our personalized tutoring builds mastery and measurable progress in every class.
Shadow Classes® That Follow Your Local Schools
Our centers are part of the Lamorinda community — welcoming spaces where students feel comfortable, focused, and understood. We know the rhythms of each semester, the pressure points of every grade level, and the expectations students face at Acalanes, Campolindo, Miramonte, Las Lomas, and other local schools.
Because our instructors understand the local curriculum and the challenges students encounter year after year, our programs are designed to meet those needs directly — from Shadow Classes to Final Exam Crams and everything in between. Families trust us because we’re not just nearby; we’re connected.
