Not just tutoring.
A different approach entirely.

Most tutoring centers follow a one-size-fits-all model. We don't. Every child at Extra Mile gets a plan built specifically for them.

Every Child Gets Individual Attention

No child gets lost in the group. Sessions are designed so your child receives focused, personal guidance — whether one-on-one or in a small group. Your child is never just another student.

Montessori-Inspired Learning

Learning is hands-on, child-led, and built on curiosity. We follow Montessori principles that let children discover concepts at their own pace instead of racing to keep up with a rigid curriculum.

An Expert in Math & Reading

Viji holds a Master's degree in Mathematics alongside her Montessori teaching credentials. She teaches both math and reading — and genuinely loves both subjects, bringing that energy to every session.

Math & Reading
that actually sticks.

We work with children from Kindergarten through 6th grade in both math and reading. Every child starts with an assessment and gets a personalized learning plan — no cookie-cutter curriculum.

Our Approach

  • Individual assessment before sessions begin
  • Personalized learning plan for each child
  • Progress tracked and shared with parents
  • DIBELS and MAP assessment experience
  • Hands-on, activity-based learning

One-on-One Sessions

The most focused experience. Your child gets undivided attention for the full session — ideal for catching up on gaps, building confidence, or accelerating ahead of grade level.

Ages 5–12 Math & Reading Individual Plan

Small Group Sessions

A collaborative setting with no more than 3–4 children at similar learning stages. Children learn from each other while still receiving personal attention from Viji throughout.

Ages 5–12 Math & Reading 3–4 Students Max

Math — Foundation Building (Ages 5–7)

Number sense, counting, basic operations, and early math concepts — taught through play and hands-on activities. We build a strong foundation before moving to abstract thinking.

K–2nd Grade Hands-On

Math — Building Confidence (Ages 8–12)

Multiplication, fractions, division, word problems, geometry, and more. We identify exactly where your child is struggling and build from there — no assumptions, no skipped steps.

3rd–6th Grade Gap-Targeted

Reading — Early Literacy (Ages 5–7)

Phonics, sight words, decoding, and comprehension — introduced through stories and hands-on activities. We build strong readers from the ground up using Montessori-aligned methods.

K–2nd Grade Phonics & Fluency

Reading — Comprehension & Fluency (Ages 8–12)

Vocabulary, reading fluency, comprehension strategies, and critical thinking. We work at your child's level and push them forward — whether they're behind or ready to be challenged.

Thank you so much for helping J.S. grow, learn, and excel. You have been an integral part of his foundation. There are few people who are truly living their calling — and you are one of them. I cannot thank you enough for all you have done and for keeping him safe.

Viji has a rare gift — she genuinely loves what she does and it shows in every session. My son went from dreading math to asking for extra practice. The personalized attention she gives every child is unlike anything we've experienced before.
