A Note:

We have both worked at a diverse set of public schools in Boston and in the suburbs of Boston; including high performing charter schools and traditional district public schools. We deeply believe that this experience working with students and families from different backgrounds is an enormous asset. We strive to build meaningful relationships with each student and family we are able to work with.

A key piece of our philosophy is growth mindset. Celebrating positive risks, growth in the face of adversity, and perseverance are all things that we instill in our students. By practicing and developing these skills during every class or tutoring session, we push our students to practice habits that will benefit them in any level of education–to middle school, high school, and beyond!
