We founded Spokes on a Wheel on September 19th, 2022 as a passion initiative to offer person-focused 1-on-1 virtual and in-person tutoring. Since that day, our vision has broadened to include academic consulting, a term we use to refer to a student's life beyond the classroom.

The last few years have posed particular challenges to students of all ages and brought the importance of wellbeing into focus. More than ever, experiences outside the classroom affect what happens within it. We wished to provide a service that is responsive to these changes.

To meet this intention, we placed our emphasis on building students’ self-esteem and providing honest, relatable guidance. Students responded best when we kept up with their lives, took their interests seriously, and showed care about their future. We are developing our model around this insight. Specific approaches such as constructive meetings with students’ important adults have been crucial in actualizing our goal.

The Spokes on a Wheel brand and presence has steadily taken form. Zoe has created compelling imagery and language, from logos to content writing, that results in a distinctive brand identity. Our website, spokesonawheel.com, built and designed by Joshua, is a landing page for the company and a foundation for future ventures.

We have grown as a team, introducing Mateo Rodriguez as our Marketing and Social Media Manager. Have you seen our amazing posts and branding? His fresh perspectives, intuitions, and enthusiasm translate to content and outreach that is relatable, relevant, and fun! Through his contributions, we are active on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, and other community platforms.
