In-person tutoring plus coaching
Working with families to take the fight out of homework.
1-on-1 coaching, in person, for capable-but-stuck students in grades 6 to 12 and early college. I work alongside your son or daughter each week on planning, starting, and finishing schoolwork, so you can stop chasing.
Sound familiar?
If this sounds like your house…
You have a capable kid and a nightly fight over homework. Reminders and tutors work for a week, then you are back to being the bad guy.
I built this coaching program for exactly that kid, and exactly that parent.

Why me
Thirty years of teaching and coaching students.
I taught Honors English at a Nashville independent school for 26 years and helped coach two state championship basketball teams.
I have also been the parent at the kitchen table, with two kids of my own.
From a parent
“My daughter worked with Coach Thompson last year while in 10th grade. It was wonderful experience for all of us. Coach T was patient, encouraging, and without any judgement. He made an easy-to-follow week to week schedule, and worked on accountability, identifying her strengths and weaknesses and organizational skills. Her confidence started to build, and she took ownership of her successes and her failures.
We are so grateful for Coach T’s help and cannot recommend his services enough!”
