About us

We are lifelong educators and former university colleagues with extensive experience providing learning support to students in public and private middle and high schools, colleges, universities, and graduate, professional, and online programs. With over sixty years of combined experience in learning assistance, we offer empathic, personalized online learning specialist support for students 14-Adult; caring advice to parents; and thoughtful, customized online workshops for educators. While our support is presently offered entirely online, if you are local to York, ME (where we are headquartered), please inquire about in-person meetings to establish and discuss services.

What exactly is learning specialist support and how is it different than subject-based tutoring?

Learning specialists provide individualized strategies to help students access their coursework so that they can study more efficiently, effectively, and engage deep, meaningful learning. We help students to better understand how they think and learn, how to attain higher test scores, stop procrastinating, and stay motivated. Learning specialists also support parents and educators with strategies for helping all students access their fullest potential and design their own unique path to lifelong learning.

While our services don’t presently include subject-based tutoring, our learning specialists have expertise in supporting students with humanities-based, STEM, and health professions coursework. We are also experienced with teaching writing and reading for specific purposes, including helping students navigate academic English and course expectations in any subject or program.
