About us:

Our organization was founded based on the idea that parents don’t just want to see their children succeed in school, but rather everything they set their mind to. In that way, parents want their children to learn executive functioning skills that would allow them to use their brain as a control tower, sending out signals of which habits to apply when, in order to ensure maximum success. 

We are looking for instructors that also have a passion for empowering the next generation of changemakers to reach their potential. 

Our instructors meld the traditional tutoring mindset: to build up subject specific skills (like math or social studies) with a wider scope of mind that includes foundational skills such as cope with learning and thinking differences, signs of learning and thinking differences and how these issues affect academics and behavior, organization, problem solving and self-advocacy. This enables our students to take their learning to the next level.
