Elite Private Teachers is an innovative, one-on-one, student centered approach to learning for your kindergarten to 7th grade student.
Removing the traditional constraints allows our Elite Students to reach their full potential. Customization
Your child is unique. We want to customize their education. Elite Private Teachers provides a tailored program that addresses math, English Language Arts, science and social studies. Our Elite Families begin the year with a custom assessment that guides the plan for their school year. This a
ssessment considers your preferences, your schedule, the Arizona state standards, your child’s current abilities, and the innovative, cutting-edge approach that Elite Private Teachers brings to the table. Families are busy, and you need a program that works with you. We will develop a detailed report at the beginning of the year with your calendar needs included. Families receive a comprehensive monthly summary their student’s progress and quarterly report cards based on Arizona's State Standards.
1:1
Classrooms pace teaching for the slowest student. Your child's time, energy, and opportunity are wasted waiting for their peers to catch up. Elite Private Teachers provide a one-on-one, complete education for your child. Your child will build confidence and critical thinking skills, free from busy work or boring assignments. We personalize lessons to your learner’s pace and interests, unlike a classroom where the teacher must meet the needs of 25 other students. Direct instruction is 1:1 with all attention on your child and their needs. Student Centered
We carefully design every aspect of learning with your child in mind. Considering their interests, needs, and your wishes, we shape the environment, content, and schedule for them. Lessons are rooted in authentic experiences. Elite Students learn in the community, sparking curiosity through tangible experiences and a genuine desire for critical thinking. Our learning center does not have fluorescent lights, desks, and white walls as a typical classroom might. It is customized for your child's comfort with seating options like beanbags, couches, comfortable chairs, eye-friendly lighting, a custom library, charging stations, a kitchenette, a courtyard, and more. Your child will love coming to school every day. Please contact us for specific information on the location.

“Every child holds limitless potential.”
That belief has guided EPT Founder, Megan Smones, through every chapter of her 15 years in education, from classroom teacher to Assistant Principal.
After years of witnessing how one-size-fits-all systems failed to honor children’s individuality, she made a courageous choice: to reimagine what education could be.
Elite Private Teachers was born from that vision. She blended her deep experience in public education with her unwavering belief that every child deserves an education as unique as they are.
She’s learned from the system so your child can thrive beyond it.
