Both of my children are struggling academically, and I’ve realized they need more consistent support and oversight.
My son is 17 and attends High School as a junior, where he is studying automotive technology. He has ADHD and is very bright, but he often struggles to complete assignments unless someone is sitting with him. Executive functioning is a significant challenge: he has difficulty preparing for assignments, managing his time, and making steady progress on larger projects.
My daughter is turning 16 and is a sophomore. Her difficulties with math became more apparent in eighth grade. Although she has not been diagnosed, she recently told me that she has trouble focusing. She may have some symptoms of ADHD, but I believe the larger issue is that she has not yet learned how to study effectively. For example, she believes that reviewing material for about half an hour the day before a test is enough preparation.
I’m finding it difficult to manage both of their academic workloads and the stress that comes with trying to keep them on track. Their success in high school and beyond is my highest priority, and we need help. I’m looking for someone who can meet with them a few times a week, review upcoming and missing assignments, help them understand material they find challenging.

My daughter is an 11th grader and has struggled so far with APUSH.

I currently take Accelerated World and US History, as that is the highest my school offers for sophomores. I am doing rather well in my class, but I understand that APUSH is a whole different beast, and I would like to get ahead of it.

I have two kids (age 6 and 7.5) who I would like to get piano lessons for. I have a piano in the home and would like to do lessons once a week if possible. We live in Andover, MA.

I have prior piano experience but little theoretical knowledge and would like to improve on that. I would also like to improve my technique.

I’m looking for a tutor for my 11 yo son in 6th grade. Looking mainly for homework help and study skills.

We are thinking about private school for our current 5th grade daughter. We are a little behind on prep for the ISEE but hoping to get started soon so she can take the exam by the EOY. She would be looking for 6th grade entry, so the lower exam.
