Acerca de
On Sacramento Street in Berkeley, at number 2436, Classroom Matters runs a tutoring and academic coaching centre that its website says was founded in 2000. The tutors are a mix of university students, graduates and classroom teachers, and the site puts the team at more than 40. Tatiana Ramos is the director named on this listing.
What the centre offers
Academic coaching and subject tutoring from kindergarten through 12th grade make up the main line of work, and support carries on past high school for college students and adults. Test preparation covers the HSPT and the SAT. A separate strand builds executive function skills such as planning, organising materials, getting started on assignments and managing time.
- Neuropsychological assessment and evaluation
- Summer workshops
- Professional development workshops
- Virtual tutoring for families who would rather meet online
Starting with a tutor
Before a first session, gather recent report cards, teacher comments and any school or private testing, and decide what progress would look like by the end of a term. Ask how the centre matches a student with a tutor, whether sessions happen on Sacramento Street or online, and how progress is reported back to parents. For an assessment, ask who carries out the evaluation, how long the written report takes and whether results can be shared with the school. It also helps to ask about the cancellation policy and how scheduling works in the weeks before exams, when demand tends to climb.
Families it serves
The centre is convenient for families in Berkeley and the neighbouring cities of Albany, Emeryville, Oakland and Piedmont, and Alameda and San Leandro are within reach in Alameda County. Virtual sessions extend that reach to households farther away.

Preguntas frecuentes
Típico de este tipo de negocioHow is a student matched with a tutor?
Tutoring centres usually match on subject, grade level, schedule and learning style after an intake conversation. Ask how this centre makes the match and whether you can change tutors if it is not working.
What is executive function coaching?
It works on the skills behind schoolwork rather than a single subject: planning, organising, starting tasks, keeping track of deadlines and managing time. It often suits students who understand the material but fall behind.
What should I bring to a first meeting?
Recent report cards, teacher comments, test scores and any prior educational or psychological evaluations, along with a short note on the goals you have for the term.
Can tutoring be done online?
Many centres, this one included according to its website, offer virtual sessions. Ask how online sessions are run, what technology is needed and whether the same tutor can work both in person and online.
