With a Dual M.S. in General and Special Education and a decade in the classroom, Andrew doesn't just tutor subjects—he builds the attentional framework required to master them.

After a few years in the classroom, Andrew began researching how learning occurs in the brain. He tailored his practice and implemented strategies that elevated his practice. When he learned about the reasons for why attention was essential to learning, he was struck by a realization that seemed both obvious and profound: if we ask students to pay attention all day at school in order for them to learn, but we never teach them how to actually do that, that is not fair. This was the catalyst for Andrew teaching students about attention and how to train it.

As an AP Reader for the College Board and a research presenter, Andrew’s work is grounded in the convergence of Cognitive Load Theory and Mindfulness. By treating attention as a trainable literacy rather than a fixed trait or deficit, he has helped hundreds of students achieve their goals, led over 200 students to a 93% AP Literature pass rate, proving that we can only have high expectations for students when they know how to attend to learning.
