About Matthew

My goal as a tutor is to give students the tools they need to feel confident at school! Growing up, I watched my mother change people's lives by giving them the help they need to learn. I want to pass on what my mother taught to me and help kids feel better about school and learning. I started tutoring when I was 15. My very first students had just moved to the United States from Japan, and needed some help getting more comfortable with the language. Over the course of two years I was able to see their skills improve, and they became more confident in themselves. They began to feel excited to go to school, which to me was the greatest result I could ever ask for. With experience in tutoring literature, mathematics, science, singing, acting, public speaking, and writing. I can do more than help kids with finishing their homework and editing their essays; I can help them bridge the gaps in their learning, and improve upon what they are struggling with at school.
