Zener Tutoring & Coaching offers empathetic, enthusiastic, and personalized tutoring in the humanities and life coaching services designed to support and empower teens, young adults, and their parents.

For 30 years I have taught history & advised high school students, coaching them to become better readers, thinkers, and writers. As a teacher, guidance counselor and advisor at Newton Country Day School and Belmont Hill School, I have supported generations of students upon their journeys of self-exploration, discovery, and empowerment.

Life coaching for teens and young adults engages them in conversations structured to connect them with their passions, with the activities, mindsets, and ways of being that make them feel most alive.

Parent coaching offers a setting and context in which parents can consider their hopes and concerns for their beloved child from multiple perspectives and from a birds’ eye-view. Do today’s worries appear equally urgent when we project 5-10 years into the future? What then becomes most important? Through conversations and coaching exercises, parents gain insights and practice that help them better connect with their child and his/her/their hopes and dreams.

I look forward to connecting with you.
