Introduction: I will always go above and beyond for my student - regardless of pay. Students appreciate my resourcefulness when I can introduce something novel and unexpected to further their learning process: that's always a lot of fun. When a student gains confidence... Patience, respect, and an understanding of teaching are essential here. Eventually, a student remedies their problem areas and they begin to have AHA moments. Things start clicking and the brains stars firing. When I see a student succeeding, I am happy to have been a part of the process.

Theo has been flexible, attentive, open, and completely willing to tailor his curriculum and focus on our kids' writing needs. I am impressed by his dedication to help our kids become excellent writers, and have confidence in his well-developed curriculum. He has been extremely open to feedback and a delight to work with. I highly recommend Theo as a tutor!

Our Experience with our English Tutor, Theodore has been outstanding. Theodore tutors twice a week for us and comes each and every week prepared with a well thought out lesson to meet our specific learning needs. I would recommend Theodore for his English teaching skills for sure, just so long as its not on Tuesday or Thursday evenings between 6 and 7pm. :) Brady

I started working with Theo in February 2015. I found him very engaged and very enthusiastic about the subjects he teaches. He has a very deep understanding of the language arts and always willing to work with you on a curriculum based on the student's needs. I am an adjunct instructor at UW, and I will gladly recommend Theo any day. Don't hesitate to call me for references. Best, Ilanko.

He is quite the guy! I really like how he relates to me and even reaches out to me outside of the sessions. I personally think he is one of the best tutor and dare I say a really good life coach I have encountered so far. Thank you for everything Theo. Andrew

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    I graduated from High School with a 2.9 GPA. I was a troublemaker, a socialite, an athlete, and very intellectually curious - while being a terrible student. I required mentorship and guidance and there was nobody able to reach me. I spent a year living by myself after High School taking classes at community college. I met teachers desperate for smart students who asked me to think about my attitudes and preconceived notions. They were right and I followed their teaching. They brought me to the top. I held a near perfect GPA, became a political player, made better friends, and realized how to tap into my own latent potential. The whole time, the funniest thing to me was how similar I was to my less focused, high-school self. I wish I could have taught my High School self - that's when I decided tutoring was the line of business for me.
