Tutoring in Mississippi
Tutoring for Mississippi students, K-12 and college, matched one-on-one with a degreed tutor. Sessions are built around MAAP and your student's classroom curriculum, plus SAT, ACT, and AP exam prep.
Tutoring built around Mississippi classrooms.
Blackmon Tutoring serves Mississippi students, from Jackson and Hattiesburg to Oxford and Natchez. Every student is matched with a tutor based on subject, grade level, and learning style, then meets on a shared digital whiteboard.
Mississippi families come to us for everything from elementary reading support to MAAP-aligned subject tutoring and SAT/ACT coaching for college-bound students.
Every tutor holds a bachelor's or master's degree, and many are certified classroom teachers. Several specialize in supporting students with dyslexia, ADHD, and other learning differences, in addition to standard subject tutoring and test prep.
What is MAAP?
The state assessment Mississippi families ask us about most.
Mississippi Academic Assessment Program
MAAP (Mississippi Academic Assessment Program) tests English language arts and math for grades 3-8, science at select grades, and specific end-of-course subjects in high school like Algebra I and English II.
Oxford is home to the University of Mississippi, and families across Jackson, Hattiesburg, Oxford, and Natchez often use MAAP results to decide which subject needs the most attention heading into the next school year.

What Mississippi families should know about tutoring.
Straight answers to the questions we hear most before a Mississippi family books their first session.
What is MAAP, and why does it matter in Mississippi?
MAAP (Mississippi Academic Assessment Program) tests English language arts and math in grades 3-8, plus end-of-course exams in high school subjects like Algebra I and English II. Schools use the results to identify students who need extra support.
Do MAAP end-of-course scores affect a student's grade?
In many Mississippi districts, end-of-course assessment results factor into a student's final grade in that course, which is why a MAAP-aligned tutoring plan for a specific class often has more urgency than general subject review.
How does tutoring work for a Mississippi student?
Your student meets their tutor on a shared digital whiteboard at a scheduled time each week, whether they're in Jackson, Hattiesburg, Oxford, or Natchez. Notes and practice problems are shared after each session.
When should test prep start before the SAT or ACT?
As a general guide, start SAT or ACT prep 12-16 weeks before a student's target test date, with weekly or twice-weekly sessions depending on the score gap and timeline.
