Meet Your Tutor.

Hello, I’m James — welcome to Cadmus Tutorials.

 

From an early age, I’ve had a passion for learning — fueled by a lifelong fascination with history and a desire to understand why humans act the way they do. For over a decade, I’ve brought that same enthusiasm to my work as a tutor, helping students not just raise their grades, but truly connect with what they’re learning.

 

My goal is to inspire a lifelong love of learning. Whether it’s untangling the complexities of AP History or sharpening writing skills, I believe every lesson should spark curiosity and build confidence. I don’t just prepare students for the next test — I help them think deeply, love learning, and see how history and language shape the world around us.

 

Join me — and let’s cultivate curiosity for life.

Real Impact:
A parent's testimonial

"James is a lifesaver. My son was struggling in AP U.S. History, and his grades at the start of the year were really suffering. James not only helped him understand the dense material—ultimately earning an A in the class—but, more importantly, he inspired a genuine passion for the subject. Many of our dinner conversations became lively history discussions, with my son excitedly sharing the fascinating things James had taught him. James is passionate about his work, patient with his students, and one of my son’s favorite teachers ever."

— Megan T., Parent of an 11th Grader

HOW CAN WE HELP YOU?

Online Tutor That Fits Your Needs

At Cadmus Tutorials we believe in a holistic method based on a classical liberal arts model. STEM is an integral aspect of education in the modern world, but STEM’s application in the everyday world is meaningless if students are not taught how to think critically. Writing is one of the most difficult subjects to learn and to teach because much of it is subjective, making the ability to think critically imperative. Writing is also a challenge because of the complexity of the English language.

As an extension of the liberal arts model, Cadmus focuses onvocabulary enrichment, strong reading comprehension skills, critical thinking and rhetoric, and effective style, all of which are crucial to developing facility with English. Cadmus uses these elements as a means of giving a student a well-rounded appreciation of language and how to apply it practically in multiple areas of their academic careers and beyond. We focus on teaching SAT/ACT preparation, literary analysis, writing ranging from narrative to expository, and of course History.
