About me

My Mission: Beyond the Grade

Hi, I’m Irina! I founded EduBoost Tutoring because I believe that every student has a "lightbulb moment" waiting to happen—they just need the right environment to spark it.

In today’s fast-paced academic world, it’s easy for bright students to feel overwhelmed or lost in a crowded classroom. My goal isn't just to help students pass their next test; it’s to give them the tools, confidence, and study habits they need to succeed long after our sessions end.

Outside the Classroom

When I’m not tutoring, you can usually find me crocheting on my sofa in the family room, curled up with a good science fiction novel, or trying out a new craft with my kids. I believe that being a lifelong learner myself makes me a better educator for my students.

Why Work With Me?

With Master's Degree in Education and 24+ years of teaching experience (in-person and online), I’ve seen firsthand how personalized instruction can change a student’s entire outlook on school.

At EduBoost Tutoring, we focus on:

  • Customized Roadmaps: No "cookie-cutter" lesson plans. I target the specific gaps in your child's understanding.

  • Confidence Building: We celebrate the small wins to build the momentum needed for big breakthroughs.

  • Mentorship: I act as a supportive partner for both the student and the parents, ensuring everyone is on the same page.
