At Capitol Teachers, we believe that great tutoring starts with great teachers. That’s why our team is composed entirely of experienced, dedicated educators who bring classroom expertise, instructional insight, and a deep passion for helping students thrive.

We are committed to holding students to high expectations, knowing that with the right support, this leads to meaningful growth and long-term success. Our approach is both data-driven and student-centered, allowing us to customize instruction to meet each learner’s unique strengths and needs.

We also recognize that academic success doesn’t happen in isolation. That’s why we emphasize collaboration with families and classroom teachers, ensuring students receive consistent, targeted support within a connected learning community. At Capitol Teachers, our mission is to foster strong relationships and empower students to reach their fullest potential.

Before founding Capitol Teachers, Liz and JoAnn spent 17 years each in public school classrooms. Both were rated highly effective educators, recognized as Expert Teachers, nominated for Teacher of the Year, and honored with the prestigious Rubenstein Award for Excellence in Teaching.
In their classrooms, they were known for creating engaging, innovative lessons and forming deep, meaningful connections with their students. That same passion for teaching and belief in the power of relationships is what fuels Capitol Teachers today.
Together, Liz and JoAnn have created a tutoring community where expert instruction, personalized learning, and genuine care come together to support student success—every step of the way.
