Meet The Founder
Since 2011, our founder, Chelsea Petrozzo has been a teacher in both a private and public school setting in New York. Throughout that time, she has regularly tutored children from Pre-K through 5th grade and has seen a growing need for private tutoring in the education space, specifically elementary education. Through games and meaningful interactions, Chelsea has been able to help children master their schoolwork while developing their confidence and their own love for learning. During the pandemic, Chelsea took on small group tutoring sessions as well as virtual tutoring, expanding the number of children she worked with and inspiring her to bring that love of learning to more children across the country through The Wonderers.
“The greatest gifts we can give our children are the roots of responsibility and the wings of independence.”- Maria Montessori
