With over fifteen years of experience guiding families through high-stakes admissions decisions, Sarah J. loves learning about her students’ unique interests and talents. “I am very big on finding the right fit college and having students really be honest about what they really want, because the hardest part really isn't getting in, it's actually being successful and happy where you end up attending,” Sarah says.

“Every student-athlete needs a mentor and a sounding board,” Kelly J. says. “I enjoy being just that for them when they find themselves doubting their potential and possibilities. I breathe the confidence back into the student.” An admissions consultant with expertise in athletic recruiting, Kelly’s consulting philosophy centers on integrity, transparency, and long-term success.

"I adjust to needs of the students," says tutor Chris J. "I believe there is no one-size-fits-all approach." A nine-year professional basketball player, Chris has degrees in both math and Spanish and experience tutoring for more than eight years.

“I believe students learn best when they are provided with high standards and given the support needed to reach those high standards,” Addison J. says. “Each student is different and needs different levels of support, and as the teacher or tutor, it is my job to reach each student to ensure their success.”

“When it comes to teaching and tutoring, I like for the students to lead the way,” Amanda J. says. “I want to be the guide.” Amanda is an ELA teacher and test prep tutor.

A spirited and curious tutor, Brandyce I. listens and caters her teaching to her students' needs. “I am a voracious reader and life-long learner, and sharing my passions with other people is the ultimate reward!” she says.

“Before anything else, I work to understand how a student thinks, where their confidence breaks down, and what study habits are and are not working for them,” says prospective medical student Favor I. “My approach centers on meeting students where they are.”

"I am a patient and knowledgeable guide, dedicated to helping students grasp complex concepts and achieve their academic goals," says Rahman I. He has been tutoring math and science for almost a decade.

“Education isn’t about finding X, or if the curtains being blue means depression; rather it is about work ethic, ethics, understanding context and what is between the lines, and focus,” says chemistry teacher Max H. This is why his approach is “critical and contextual thinking based.”
