Homework Help + Study Skills For Junior High And Beyond!

Welcome!

I’m Charlie, a private tutor and certified Youth Life Coach with ten years of experience.

My passion is helping students reach their full academic potential.

Real quotes from actual parents:

  • "My child is so smart. Why can't they apply themselves academically?"

  • "My daughter is lost in one subject. I'd love for her to get a boost of confidence before High School." 

  • "My Middle-Schooler refuses to do homework! Every night is a slog. It's starting to affect our home life."

Sometimes, an outside presence is helpful.

For almost ten years, I have been partnering with parents to help students navigate the transition from Middle School to High School. It can be a confusing time for young people: heavier homework loads and faster lessons, with adolescence right around the corner! It's a time when they need not only the appropriate academic support, but to feel seen and heard. Through empathy, creativity and consistency, I help students sharpen skills, raise scores and, most importantly, be their best academic selves.

Testimonials

"I felt confident referring any number of students to Charlie. It was a pleasure to observe the academic confidence his students gained." 

  -Anne Meyer

      Director of Learning Resources  

The Allen-Stevenson School, 6/2022  

Charlie has tutored both of my children to great success. My son was admitted to a highly competitive boarding school and continues to thrive due to Charlie laying a solid academic foundation. My daughter’s school was concerned that she might have a math learning disorder. However, she was grasping math concepts in just a few sessions with Charlie. I cannot say enough good things about Charlie as a tutor or a person. I owe much of my children’s academic success to Charlie!

-Heather K.

"Charlie worked with our son on developing strategies and organizational habits that still serve him well today. Essentially, he made learning how to learn fun. He was a very positive influence on our son. Any student would be lucky to have him in their corner as a guide and coach."
