Huckleberry Tutoring was created to help ensure that students are building strong skill sets, that will benefit their future education. Our teachers provide virtual math and reading tutoring, at an affordable price, for 1st through 8th grade. Please fill out our no-obligation interest form, and we'll be in touch soon to answer any questions.
I'm Katie Schendel, a Middle School Math Teacher, turned Instructional Coach, in Montgomery County, Virginia. My husband is a science teacher, and we have two young children in elementary school.
Teaching and working at the middle school level for the past 12 years, I know how important it is to build good foundational skills in elementary school. Success in middle and high school depends on an understanding of reading and math. As a parent, and educator, I know the struggles, first hand, that have affected learning these past years.

Huckleberry Tutoring only employs certified teachers, so you can be sure that your child is receiving the most up-to-date, research based content. Our teachers are from a variety of schools and counties, to offer a broad range of content knowledge. We make sure to pair teachers with classes that fit their certification, so they are aware of grade level expectations and ability.
Families will be invited to join a google classroom, where students can access a link to a virtual meeting, and the session materials. Most materials are created in google slides, and presented to students through an interactive site. Katie, and her husband, Matt, are both Google Certified, and will be happy to help you navigate the Google world. Students will be expected to have a computer with a camera, and reliable internet. A touchscreen would be great, but isn't required..
Tutoring sessions include reading, math, or science.. Sessions may include up to five students, to promote discussion and collaboration. When students discuss their understandings (and misunderstandings) with same age peers, they retain more information and become more confident in their abilities. Through my teaching experience, I have seen students' performance increase tremendously through socialization and collaboration. When students learn together, they grow together!
