Academic Tutoring

Who’s doing the tutoring?  

A great tutor is more than a subject matter expert.  They know the “big picture” curriculum. They perceive and accommodate your child’s learning strengths and weaknesses.  They’re a mentor.  They instill confidence and enthusiasm for the subject.  Don’t just hire a “tutoring center,” hire a master tutor.

Expert

We bring over 30 years of experience tutoring and mentoring young adults in demanding scholastic environments. We have experience in top-rated private and public schools in Austin, Texas and Washington, DC. We know the subject matter. We know the curriculum. We understand the challenges that students face. We own the business and we do the tutoring – all the tutoring – ourselves.

Focused

We focus on math, science and languages at the high school and middle school levels:

  • Algebra
  • Geometry
  • Pre-calculus
  • Calculus, including AP
  • Chemistry, including AP
  • Physics
  • Spanish
  • French

Caring

In our experience, virtually every student can succeed with the proper motivation and support.  Not all students learn the same way, and not all challenges are about the subject matter.  However, it does take hard work, and we try to instill discipline and a desire to really learn, not just get past the next exam.

Along the way, we help with study skills, organization, and a sympathetic ear when things get overwhelming. We work closely with the parents to understand and meet the students where they are.
