Our team is growing

Northstar is expanding its tutoring team.

We are bringing on tutors carefully so we can support more students while preserving the individual attention that defines our approach. We're looking for strong mathematics tutors who are patient, dependable, comfortable teaching online, and able to connect with students one-to-one.

The degrees and teaching experience listed above belong to Joshua Lizardi, not every Northstar tutor. As tutors join the team, their own profiles will appear on this page.
