Subject: Welcome to Mad Wizard Tutoring – Empowering Every Learner

Dear Valued Families and Students,

I hope this message finds you well and enjoying a vibrant summer! I’m Dr. Jill Bartholomew, the founder and owner of Mad Wizard Tutoring, and I’m delighted to welcome you to our community. Since launching in August 2020, my mission has been to support families navigating the challenges of education, particularly during the disruptions of COVID-19. At Mad Wizard Tutoring, we are committed to personalizing education for every learner—whether a third-grader, a high school senior, or a master’s degree candidate—ensuring their unique needs are met with care and enthusiasm.

Research highlights the diversity of learning styles, with at least eight to nine distinct intelligences identified (Gardner, 2011). Unfortunately, traditional education systems often struggle to accommodate this variety, leaving many students feeling overlooked, disengaged, or even discouraged. That’s where Mad Wizard Tutoring steps in. My goal is to transform the educational experience by fostering a love of learning through tailored, engaging approaches. As a certified professional tutor, I wear three essential hats:

1. **Cheerleader**: My favorite role is connecting with students as individuals, celebrating their progress, and igniting their curiosity to make learning a joyful journey.

2. **Mentor**: By building strong relationships, I help students discover their strengths, address their challenges, and find the learning methods that work best for their unique minds.

3. **Partner**: Success is a team effort. I collaborate closely with parents and teachers to create a supportive community dedicated to each student’s growth and lifelong love of learning.

While I may not wield a magic wand, I firmly believe that with the support of families and schools, we can work wonders together. At Mad Wizard Tutoring, we’re here to empower your student to thrive academically and beyond. Thank you for considering us as your partner in education—I look forward to helping your child shine!

Warm regards,

Dr. Jill Bartholomew
