Hello BPN!

My name is Theo, and I am a dedicated educator with a degree in Child Development from Mills College and six years of classroom experience. I support K-12th grade students in the Bay Area with academics and study skills. 

Tutoring sessions with me generally consist of a check-in and goal setting, specific skill development (i.e sentence diagramming, calculating trigonometric ratios, note-taking methods, or backpack organization), and goal completion/reflection. Compassion and academic rigor are equally important to me, and I believe that every student can find confidence and intrinsic motivation in their studies with the right supports. Multiple intelligence theory, instructional scaffolding, and a strengths based approach inform my practice.

I am available for after-school and afternoon tutoring sessions with new clients Monday through Friday. I usually recommend 60-90 minute sessions one to two times per week, but am flexible and open to working with a family's needs. Virtual tutoring over Zoom is also an option. 

I offer a sliding scale for academic tutoring sessions, 50-90$ per hour. Please feel free to reach out to me with questions!
