REIMAGINING
Education
At Compass Educators, we partner with families and schools to provide trauma-informed, social-emotional, and academic support—helping every learner grow with confidence and curiosity. We offer in-person and online tutoring, academic coaching, and enrichment support for both charter-homeschooling and independent families who value a holistic approach to education.
Services are currently facilitated by Mr. Oscar Valles, a fingerprinted and charter-approved educator.
Welcome to Compass Educators
We offer a wide variety of educational services that will help your student… and you!
Tutoring/Academic Coaching
1:1 or small group sessions providing help with test prep, homework support, and year-round boosts!
More than tutoring — academic coaching helps your child with a personalized action plan & provides effective social-emotional and trauma-informed guidance/strategies to help your child navigate their unique path.
College/Career Readiness
We help students prepare for life beyond high school with clarity, confidence, and purpose.
Our strength-based approach begins with understanding each learner’s unique abilities, interests, and multiple intelligences—empowering them to make informed, authentic choices about their future.
While we support all students, we are especially passionate about helping first-generation learners navigate college, career, and application systems that may be new to them.
We offer support with:
🎓 College applications and personal statements
💼 Résumé writing and mock interviews
🔍 Job and internship exploration
🌟 Identifying strengths, interests, and growth pathways
We guide teens to discover meaningful opportunities that reflect who they are and what they’re capable of—helping them step into the next chapter with confidence and joy.
Homeschool/Charter Homeschool Support
We help families create learning experiences where learners of all ages flourish—academically, socially, and creatively.
For charter homeschooling families, we offer:
💻 In-person or online academic coaching to strengthen skills and confidence
🌟 Guidance and support to help learners stay motivated and progressing with ease
For independent homeschooling families, we also support:
🗂️ Filing a Private School Affidavit (PSA) and understanding homeschool requirements
🎨 Enrichment activities and learning experiences that bring subjects to life
🚌 Coordinating field trips and community connections to expand learning beyond the classroom
🕊️ Helping families establish rhythms and routines that make home education sustainable and joyful
Charter services are currently facilitated by Mr. Oscar Valles, a fingerprinted and charter-approved educator.
