Marin County Tutor for Middle and High School Students

In-person and online tutoring in Marin County

Marin Homework Coach provides personalized tutoring in Marin County for middle school and high school students. If your child is smart but overwhelmed, disorganized, or falling behind, you’re not alone. The Marin Homework Coach helps students get organized, manage their workload, and succeed in school without nightly homework battles.

I specialize in helping students build:

  • Strong organization and planning systems


  • Better study habits and time management


  • Accountability and follow-through


  • Confidence and independence


This is more than tutoring. It’s ongoing academic coaching for real, lasting improvement.

I provide subject-specific tutoring in math, science, and Spanish language support for Marin middle and high school students, alongside academic coaching focused on organization, study skills, and follow-through.

Academic Coaching & Tutoring for Marin Middle and High School Students

For over 20 years, the Marin Homework Coach has helped students across Marin County improve their academic performance — especially in math, science, writing, and study skills.

I work primarily with:

  • Middle school students (grades 6–8)


  • High school students (grades 9–12)


  • Students who are:

    • Disorganized


    • Overwhelmed


    • Capable but underperforming


    • Falling behind or struggling to keep up


Special Focus: School Transition Years in Marin

I specialize in the two most challenging academic transitions:

  • 5th → 6th grade (elementary to middle school)


  • 8th → 9th grade (middle school to high school)


These are the years when students suddenly face multiple teachers, heavier workloads, and much higher expectations. Academic coaching during these transitions prevents small problems from becoming big ones.


How Marin Homework Coach Tutoring Works

Most families work with me through:

  • Weekly academic coaching and tutoring


  • Twice-weekly academic coaching and tutoring


  • Short-term intensive tutoring for:

    • Transitions


    • Catch-up work


    • Test prep and finals


Our sessions typically focus on:

  • Homework management and planning


  • Organization and executive function skills


  • Study skills and test preparation


  • Subject support — especially math tutoring and science tutoring


Parents often tell me:

“It’s such a relief to know someone is finally on top of everything.”
