Episode 312 | Harrison Kmiec | Harrison Kmiec Tutoring | The EdisonOS Podcast

In this episode, Harrison Kmiec, founder of Harrison Kmiec Tutoring, reveals how his stressed college experience as a math and stats major inspired him to become an additional resource for STEM students who couldn't always access office hours. Drawing from his own neurodivergent background, Harrison explains how he views ADHD and neurodivergent mindsets as having creative strengths, not just flaws, and develops multiple solution methods outside sessions so students can find their own learning style and build confidence.He discusses his long-term goal setting approach that reassures students about gradual progress rather than fixing everything in one session, and shares why he avoids homework-heavy strategies, instead pointing out minor consistent mistakes students should review in spare time. Harrison reveals his $50 hourly rate philosophy of setting prices to the lowest amount he needs to get by financially while never half-assing quality, and explains why he doesn't rely on AI tools like ChatGPT for tutoring because they lack the long-term learning strategy that comes from tutors who understand the sustained process of mastering a subject over time.
