Hello! I’m Blair C. Matthews, excited to bring my background in law, public administration, and science to enrich your learning experience. I recently started my own business and am tutoring while my business grows. My educational journey includes a Juris Doctor from Northwestern Pritzker School of Law, a Master's in Public Administration from Columbia University, and a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science from Howard University. Beyond my academic credentials, I have a rich history in teaching and coaching that I leverage to provide a comprehensive tutoring approach tailored to individual student needs.

For two years, I taught middle school science, where I designed engaging curricula that included coordinating annual science fairs, and delivering interactive lectures. My teaching approach emphasizes understanding complex scientific concepts through hands-on experiments and real-world applications, making learning both fun and impactful. Additionally, I bring extensive experience as a soccer and swim coach, having worked with middle school students and YMCA members in Alexandria, VA. In these roles, I focused on developing skills, promoting teamwork, and instilling confidence and discipline in young athletes. My coaching style is patient and motivational, aiming to bring out the best in each participant while ensuring they enjoy every step of their learning and training journey.

My tutoring sessions are characterized by a personalized approach that considers each student’s learning style and challenges. Whether explaining legal principles, exploring writing, or breaking down biological processes, I strive to make learning accessible and engaging. I believe in nurturing a supportive environment that encourages questions and fosters a deep understanding of the material, helping students achieve their academic goals and develop a lifelong love for learning. Join me in this educational adventure, where your potential will be met with guidance, enthusiasm, and a commitment to excellence.
