Foundational skills, rebuilt
Grades are frequently the final signal that learners are lost. We identify where learning initially broke down and patch there first, so that when we review the current material there are no gaps to fall through.

What we tutor
Five subjects. One standard: real understanding.
Tutors are hired based on a combination of deep content knowledge and the capacity to connect concepts to their students clearly. Pick your student’s subject and we’ll match them with a tutor who knows it cold.

What academic tutoring actually looks like.
Strategies, review sessions, and study skills, built around how your student learns rather than a stack of worksheets. Students preparing for a test date can also join the SAT bootcamp waitlist for small-group prep.
Writing that sounds like your kid
We don’t rewrite the essay for them. Students learn to organize a draft, tighten the argument, and edit their own work, from middle school essays to college applications.
SAT strategy, not drills
Review sessions keyed to the questions your student misses, plus the pacing and test-day strategy that recovers easy points.
Study skills that stick
Planning, organization, and follow-through, built alongside the subject so the habits stick after tutoring ends.
Who we help
From middle school through college, and every grade in between.
6-8
Middle school is where the gaps start. We keep kids confident and on top of their courses before high school raises the stakes.
9-12
Our busiest years: Algebra through AP calculus, SAT prep, and college-prep writing, plus the study skills to juggle that many courses at once.
13+
College students come to us for calculus, statistics, physics, and writing, usually for a required course standing between them and their major.

★★★★★
"Lily worked with my son in the spring of his junior year as he prepared for the AP Calculus AB exam and the SAT. She was professional, knowledgeable, connected with Natan and engaged him in his learning. She definitely boosted his content mastery and exam scores for BOTH tests."

★★★★★
"Lily has been tutoring my 8th grade son in Algebra and it’s made a big difference. He says she explains concepts very clearly. He understands more in 30 minutes with Lily than an hour of class. Lily has been very patient with him. Excellent tutor."

★★★★★
"My daughter Amanda has had great success with her Statistics class since being tutored by Audrey G. Her grades in the class went from barley passing to B to C grades! Thanks again for all your help!"

Academic tutoring FAQ
The questions parents ask about tutoring.
Want a specific subject in depth? See Maryland math tutoring, or browse pricing and policies.
What subjects does your academic tutoring cover?
Math from Pre-Algebra through college calculus and differential equations, including honors and AP statistics, plus SAT prep, writing from middle school essays through graduate and professional work, executive functioning, and physics through intro-college courses. If your student’s course falls in that range, ask - odds are good we have a tutor who covers it every week.
What grade levels do you work with?
We tutor students from 6th grade through college. Most families come to us with middle school and high school students, and we also support college students in math, statistics, physics, and writing. Executive functioning is built for older teens and adults. Elementary math and other subjects are available by request, so ask on the consult call.
How do you match a student with a tutor?
You name the class, and Lily picks from the roster herself: the tutor who knows that course cold and whose personality fits your student. You’ll know your tutor’s name and the courses they cover before the first session, and if the fit isn’t right, tell us and we’ll re-match.
Is academic tutoring online or in person?
Both, and we’ll recommend the right format on the consult call. Online tutoring over Zoom reaches students across Maryland and beyond, while in-person runs in central Maryland (Baltimore County, Baltimore City, Howard County), depending on each tutor’s schedule.
How much does tutoring cost?
Rates start at $75 an hour for most math and run up to $145 for SAT and AP-level work, and you hear the exact number before anything is scheduled. You pay session by session, starting with a single booking. See the pricing page for the full breakdown.
How often do students meet with a tutor, and for how long?
Generally, students meet with their tutors for 1 hour per week. Both frequency and duration can vary based on exams and deadlines. Sessions can last up to two hours, in 15-minute increments, and be as frequent as three times a week or as occasional as once a month. Since there are no contracts, you can book the sessions you need when you need them.
Do you help with study skills, not just the subject?
Yes. Even in subject tutoring, our tutors work on the how-to-study alongside the math or the essay. For students whose real gap is organization and follow-through rather than content, our Hacking Your Potential executive functioning track is built for that gap.
Where do I start?
Start with a free consult call. Tell us which class, which grade, and which deadline, and Lily will recommend the right tutor. Most families go from that call to a first session in about a week to ten days.
