ABOUT THE FOUNDER
Hi there! I’m Sarah, a proud University of Virginia graduate with over 15 years of experience supporting high school students overcome their academic challenges. I’m also a mental health advocate on a journey to becoming a licensed therapist. When I’m not breaking down complex concepts or cheering on your academic wins, I’m busy negotiating peace treaties between my two cats, Maya and Pasha.
To me, tutoring isn’t just a teaching/learning experience, it’s more about discovering one’s own potential through empowerment.
Thus, Empowering Hours.
