MISSION
OUR MENTORS
We exist to reignite every student’s innate curiosity and love for learning. Our approach connects classroom lessons with students’ passions, transforming education into a journey, not a task. Through mentorship with individuals who share a relentless curiosity for the world, students gain role models who inspire them to pursue knowledge for its own sake, rather than a means to an end.

We meet students where they are, seeing every learner as both a student and a teacher. The boundary between teacher and student dissolves as they exchange skills, ideas, and perspectives. With families, we design individualized programs to fit each student’s unique needs, offering four pathways: skill mastery, project-based learning, exam preparation, and cornerstone projects that empower students to explore and grow as they see fit.

OUR LEARNING PATHWAYS
Have you ever wondered how many words you know out of all the words in English, how exactly the Instagram algorithm works, or how your dog thinks without words?
This pathway is our bread and butter, providing an in-depth, personalized learning experience that brings out each student’s strengths while fostering a well-rounded approach to knowledge. Our mentors guide students through an immersive process, combining skills from research, critical writing, mathematics, and specialized areas relevant to their interests.
Over the course of several months, we work with the student to identify a question that truly sparks their curiosity—whether it's about science, history, art, or an interdisciplinary topic. Together, we outline a research plan, teaching students how to gather reliable sources, analyze data, and develop thoughtful conclusions. Along the way, they gain essential skills in critical thinking, time management, and project planning.
In the end, students compile their findings into a polished paper and present it, gaining experience in both academic writing and public speaking. This project not only answers their original question but also empowers them with a toolkit they can carry into any future endeavor.
PRICING
We do our best to meet each family where they are for their needs. Based on the mentor and the number of times we meet in a month, our prices can go as low as $70 per hour. For most cases, the prices on the right are how much we charge.
