Award-Winning Tutors serving Mechanicsville, VA

...school. I would always help my friends that were struggling in similar classes that I took or had taken by meeting with them at lunchtime and reinforcing concepts taught to them in class.

Outside of tutoring, I love to go hiking, play pickleball,...

Walker Governor's School graduate), I discovered a passion for helping others and I now have had hundreds of hours of tutoring experience in a wide range of subjects including chess, computer programming, math, and SAT prep.

...seems like a good way to give others the same support I received. Few experiences have been as rewarding as sharing my passion for science and tech with kids as a robotics camp counselor. Seeing children get excited to learn about programming, design, and problem solving the same way I did at their age with my old legos was amazing. Right now I'm looking to tutor in mostly STEM subjects, and though the website won't...

Since graduation, I have worked teaching high school English and coaching wrestling in a relatively poor and rural district just south of Richmond.

...gave them a spark, and the importance of this spark is evident in students of all ages. I believe if someone ever lost it, they can get it back when they find confidence in the material they're studying. I tutor a variety of subjects, including essay writing, grammar, and Italian; however, my favorite is Algebra.

...there are many different paths to get there. Just as we find our own groove to the music, we all must find our own math groove.

My goal is for my students to be autonomous and be able to solve complex problems without prompting...

...of my favorite on-campus experiences have included occasions when I played music with students in an informal setting, or joined them in a game of hackey-sack on the lawn during lunchtime.

Aside from being blessed with the opportunity to convey my enthusiasm...

...proficient in. However, advice, teaching and tutoring are all a gift and should presented as such. If I take a five dollar bill, place it in a thank you card and hand it to someone. It will be far better received and valued, then if I throw a balled up soaking wet hundred dollar bill at them. I have tutored people of all age groups and disciplines, from 4th and 5th grade math in the...
