Grand Prix Tutoring Offers New Academic Emergency Tutoring Services
Palm Beach Post Features Grand Prix Tutoring of Wellington
Wellington, FL – January 19, 2016 – Grand Prix Tutoring proudly offers a new, unique service to students. Tutors are now available for by-the-minute help by telephone or Skype. For students with quick questions or emergencies, students can call for help instead of setting up a full tutoring session. This academic emergency service comes with a guarantee: Grand Prix Tutoring guarantees a solution, or you will not be charged. Learn more about Grand Prix Tutoring's Academic Emergency Tutoring Services here!
Grand Prix Tutoring also offers in-home and virtual, private tutoring by a number of highly knowledgeable and experienced tutors. Students of all levels, from elementary to university, can find academic help specific to their needs at Grand Prix Tutoring.
Grand Prix Tutoring founder Danielle Cooper has always placed high value on achieving success in two key areas of her life: in the horse show ring and in the classroom. Now, Cooper is helping today’s junior equestrians do the same.
Cooper understands how to balance academics and riding. Throughout her successful junior riding career, she, like many young riders, traveled the horse show circuit. When she spent time away from her New York based high school to compete at the Winter Equestrian Festival, she received tutoring in lieu of traditional time spent in the classroom. Cooper received a perfect score of 800 on the math section of the SAT. Her perfect score is particularly noteworthy as she completed the SAT on the same day that she competed in the USEF Show Jumping Talent Search Finals. Cooper then went on to attend New York University where she graduated one semester early with a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics through the prestigious Courant Institute of Mathematical Sciences and a minor in Business Studies from the Stern School of Business.
Today, Cooper and Grand Prix Tutoring are based in Wellington, Florida. As the 2016 Winter Equestrian Festival and Global Dressage Festival get underway, Grand Prix Tutoring is opening up remaining spaces to new students.
Additionally, Grand Prix Tutoring is currently offering 25 percent off new students’ first hour of tutoring with them.

Tutoring firm helps young riders keep pace with academics
Every January, the best equestrians in the world arrive in Wellington for the Winter Equestrian Festival. For eleven weeks, they live and breathe competition. Many of them are junior riders who juggle high school or college classes while training daily and showing on the weekends. Some commute each weekend, studying in airport terminals and writing research papers in the barn between lessons.
Danielle Cooper was one of those riders.
She graduated from New York University in 2012 and worked for a few agencies before starting her own, Grand Prix Tutoring (www.grandprixtutoring.com). She works closely with her students and their teachers to make sure their grades don’t suffer while they’re chasing their dreams of blue ribbons and gold medals. The Wellington-based entrepreneur’s firsthand experience helps her relate to the unique academic needs of her equestrian clients.
“When I was in high school, I’d stay in Wellington for a month at a time,” Cooper said. “I was privately tutored to keep up with my academics. When I was in college, I commuted weekly from New York to Wellington. When I’d wait for my flight, I’d sit with other junior riders, and we’d all do our schoolwork. I’d always offer to help anyone who was sitting there. That jump-started my tutoring.”
Some young riders disenroll from school and stay in Wellington until April, essentially switching to home schooling for the duration of the winter show season. Others fly down on the weekends and need a tutor for occasional help. Cooper and her staff work in tandem with each student’s school and teachers to make sure they keep pace with their classmates.
“We communicate with their schools and we’ll send work back and forth and proctor tests,” Cooper said. “For the students who have to disenroll for a season, we make sure to create custom curricula for them and academic portfolios to send back to the school to make sure they stay on course with their classes.”
The one-on-one attention of tutoring often leads to equestrian students getting ahead of their classmates and graduating early, in spite of their rigorous extracurricular activities. Grand Prix tutoring offers in-home or virtual help, and even pay-by-the-minute help for quick questions or emergencies. For Cooper, it’s all about helping her fellow riders and taking the anxiety out of academics.
“We understand that equestrians need flexibility,” she said. “We don’t have set office hours because we’re in-home or virtual. We can help late at night when necessary and wherever we’re needed. We can even come to the barn. We try to customize and personalize academic help for our students.”
Cooper hopes to pass on her love of learning and help kids achieve their goals in the classroom and the show ring.
“I love seeing students realize their academic potential,” she said. “I find it really rewarding when a student grasps a concept they’ve been working hard to understand, or when their scores go up or they enjoy learning. Tutoring can make a big difference in a student’s education."

Grand Prix Tutoring Offers Personalized, One-On-One Tutoring at WEF 2016
Wellington, FL – Dec. 10, 2015 – Grand Prix Tutoring is aiding in the education of young riders up and down the East Coast. This Winter Equestrian Festival (WEF) and Global Dressage Festival (GDF) season, parents and students are invited to experience the Grand Prix Tutoring difference first-hand.
Parents seeking to enroll their students with Grand Prix Tutoring can visit www.grandprixtutoring.com, fill out the contact sheet here, or call (516) 971-9281.
When it comes to balancing an education with a vigorous junior riding career, it pays to have a tutor who knows the difficulty of that balance from experience. Grand Prix Tutoring founder Danielle Cooper has paired her extensive academic and equestrian backgrounds to provide the highest quality of professional, one-on-one tutoring to equestrian athletes. Parents, students, teachers, and school administrators alike have had rave reviews for Cooper and the highly knowledgeable and experienced tutors at Grand Prix Tutoring.
“Danielle Cooper worked both as a substitute teacher and as a private tutor for students at our school. She worked with our students on site as well as remotely, as far away as Florida, when our students traveled for equestrian competitions,” said Harry Grzelewski, the Upper School Division Head at the Portledge School in New York. “Word spread concerning Danielle’s care, attention and effectiveness. Danielle teaches her students the material and how to learn the material. At our school, she was always in demand. As a product of independent schools, Danielle understands the rigor of the courses and the demands placed upon students. She has the same high standards as the students’ teachers, so she gets results.”
Across the board, parents agree that utilizing Grand Prix Tutoring throughout the winter equestrian season made a world of difference for their young students.
“I used Danielle Cooper this past winter to tutor my thirteen-year-old in ninth grade. She returned home way ahead of her class,” said A. Stiegler. “The individual one-on-one attention Danielle provides each of her students is incredible. She helps them understand what they would miss otherwise in class. She gives them homework on a regular basis, and students keep on top of their work. My daughter has done so well with Danielle that my daughter had a 4.3 average in high school! We look forward to working with her again this winter and highly recommend her for anyone looking for a tutor.”
Grand Prix Tutoring gives students the support and structure they need to balance their academics with their equestrian pursuits. Cooper personally communicates and collaborates with each student’s school administration and teachers, so students are always on track with assignments and assessments. This close cooperation between Cooper and each student’s school mitigates stress for both students and parents.
