Our Promise

  • All sessions are always one-to-one and completely individualized.
  • Our students are carefully matched with the tutor, educational therapist, or learning specialist best suited to help them reach their individual goals.
  • We offer the ultimate in flexibility by working around your schedule and by constantly adjusting the program to meet our students’ changing needs.
  • No intense intake assessments and no cookie-cutter curriculum. Every student is different and we develop the best program for each individual learner.
  • Every Stepping Stones educator is skilled in helping students identify whether they have habits that are holding them back, and in helping students develop the kind of habits that would help them reach their goals.
  • Because of our need to be flexible with our support plans, we bill at the end of each month for sessions attended. No packages or programs that families must commit to. We understand the changing needs of our students and their families.
  • All sessions are supervised through our secure and inviting learning centers.

  • My son has benefited from Stepping Stones tutoring for over a year. He routinely works with Jeff M. in person, following Covid safety protocols. These sessions have been very helpful as it has provided steadiness in his learning during uncertain and tiresome zoom online learning. Both Ana and Amber are very much interested in working out an easy schedule with students and parents.

  • As a Student Support Coordinator at an independent school, I’m always looking for excellent options to refer my students. As soon as I started working with Steppingstones this became one of the ONLY places I highly recommend. Anna Hasbun and her staff are not only warm, approachable, funny but extremely knowledgeable and professional. The level of follow-up they do compares to no other tutoring/test prep center out there. They make sure they connect with teachers, school support staff and family to provide a holistic approach to their interventions.  They have connected with all of our students and genuinely care about them. Seeing them thrive becomes something personal for them. I highly recommend Anna and her team!

  • My kiddos have been coming here for a couple of years. My daughter has had THE best luck with tutors. Her grades have soared and she loves coming. I mean who walks out of calculus tutoring with a huge smile on their face?  My daughter does every time because it all clicks. My son attends The Social Club for kids with developmental disabilities. He LOVES it. He’s made friends and is excited every week to go. He has gained wonderful skills with [his tutor]. Anna, the owner, just knows how to pick the right people to work here. It’s is high on my recommendation list.

  • Stepping Stones was exactly what our daughter needed.

    We have a bright and creative girl who just entered a challenging high school as a freshman.  Although she spent hours studying at home, her grades were dismal and she was at risk of failure.  We enrolled our daughter in the homework help/study hall program at Stepping Stones, and we have seen an amazing transformation.  Now she spends less time getting much more done.  She’s much happier, has more time, and her GPA went up by over 1.5 points.  It looks like she will get an academic award.  Amazing!  

    Stepping Stones provides a wonderful environment, with a beautiful outdoor area and very peaceful indoor spaces.  [Her tutor]  at Stepping Stones really took the time to understand our daughter and to work with her to develop better study skills and habits.  While we primarily just use the homework/study hall program, we have also used one-on-one tutor time with good results.  

    We are grateful to [her tutor] and all the staff at Stepping Stones.

  • I can’t say enough good things about Stepping Stones in La Canada! Anna and her staff are so professional and great. Anna made special accommodations for us numerous times and we always felt like we got special attention. The tutors my daughter had for the ISEE were fantastic and she improved her overall scores tremendously. We would definitely use their services again! Very pleased.
