My name is Maeve, and I offer tutoring in Davidson, North Carolina. I am a freshman (Class of 2029) at Davidson College. I am planning to major in Chemistry on the pre-med track, with a minor in French. I have a strong academic background in math and science and can confidently tutor K–12 students in math, chemistry, and physics. I have also been learning French for eight years, and can tutor beginner French. In high school, I was an embedded tutor for honors chemistry after taking honors chemistry my sophomore year and AP chemistry my junior year. In high school, I took AP Physics 1, AP Chemistry, AP Calculus BC, AP Statistics, AP Psychology, AP European History, and AP US History. I have worked as a summer camp counselor for three years and really enjoy working with students, building connections, and helping them grow. Outside of the classroom, I love playing sports, being outside, and reading. I played varsity volleyball, soccer, and basketball in high school, and at Davidson, I am on the club Volleyball and Soccer teams. As a tutor and a student, I believe that confidence is very important, so one of my biggest goals is to help students gain confidence in their leaning. This means not just learning the topics, but building problem-solving and critical-thinking skills that allow students to feel comfortable attempting new materials.

If you have a specific tutor in mind, you're welcome to request them directly — we'll confirm whether they're available and the right fit for your student. Otherwise, Ryan writes a personal email to understand your student's needs, learning style, and goals — then handpicks a tutor from the roster. You're not filling out a form and getting assigned randomly. If the first tutor isn't the right fit after the first session, we'll find you a better match at no extra charge.
Yes. Many families start with a single session to see how the tutor and student connect before committing to a regular schedule. There's no pressure to book in advance — reach out and we'll set something up.
Yes. Many of our tutors are strong across several subjects, and sessions can cover more than one if that's what the student needs that week. Flexibility is built into how we work.
Most of our tutors continue working through breaks, either online or in-person at the college if the tutors remain on campus during that vacation. We'll let you know in advance if a tutor has a gap in availability and arrange coverage with one of our other tutors — in-person or online — in the required subject.
Occasionally, if the student lives very close to the tutor's campus. Most sessions take place on or near the college campus or online. This keeps sessions in an academically focused environment — which tends to produce better results.
The families who see the biggest results are the ones who commit to a regular cadence — typically once, twice, or three times a week. One-on-one tutoring with a student from an elite college, who genuinely understands the material, is a fundamentally different experience from a tutoring center or an app. Most of our clients stay with us for multiple semesters.

That depends on where your student is starting and how consistently they show up. Maeve will identify the specific gaps, focus sessions on them, and adjust as the student progresses. Families who stick to a weekly schedule typically see meaningful progress within four to six weeks.
