History
Established in 2011.
Formerly Quantum Tutoring.
Our company was founded in response to a growing need to help a constantly changing demographic of student, struggling to find academic success. As a public school teacher and university teaching fellow, our founder developed a teaching philosophy that is strongly rooted in helping the student as a whole person, and not simply "cover the material" presented in a traditional class. Too often, teachers are overwhelmed with large classes and extensive administrative demands. We decided to focus solely on one student at a time, the one in our classroom. Our philosophy focuses on giving our students the skills needed to succeed both in their clases, entrance exams, and future academic endeavors. We make sure that the material is presented in a way that is clear, concise, and personally identifiable with each student. It is our firm hope that each student will leave our classes feeling confident and empowered to succeed at whatever assignment they encounter.
