South Pasadena, CA, June 17, 2025 – As summer courses kick off, Hodis Learning & Music (HLM) is encouraging students and families to consider academic support to maximize success. With shorter timelines and fast-paced instruction, summer classes can be more challenging than courses during the academic year. But timely tutoring can make a difference.
“One of the biggest mistakes we often see is students who wait too long to hire a tutor for a summer class,” says HLM president and founder Drew M. Hodis. “Summer sessions compress several months of content into just a few weeks, so getting help right away can be the difference between staying ahead or playing catch up.”
Serving students of all ages, Hodis Learning & Music offers individualized tutoring for a wide range of summer school subjects, from math and science to English and foreign languages. HLM pairs each student with an experienced, dedicated tutor who adapts their teaching to meet each student’s individual learning needs and goals.
In addition to traditional academic support, HLM offers enrichment tutoring for students who want to explore a subject more deeply, get ahead before fall, or engage in fun and creative learning over the summer.
“We know there are a lot of summer activities to choose from, but learning is something that will always be valuable, and we can make it fun,” explains Hodis. “It’s not like sitting in summer school or doing worksheets. Our educators can lead fun educational activities, like at-home science labs and interactive art lessons.”
For those preparing for standardized tests, Hodis Learning & Music provides expert SAT and ACT exam preparation, offering customized plans that build confidence and improve scores. The company also supports artistic development through private music lessons and art instruction to help students stay engaged and learning.
Enrollment is now open for all summer programs, with flexible scheduling to accommodate travel and other summer plans. We encourage interested families to inquire as soon as possible to ensure availability.
