"Office hours — that unhurried hour between student and teacher — is where real learning happens."
— Office Hours Philosophy
Not in test prep booklets or scripted curricula, but in genuine intellectual exchange. OH College Prep was built on that belief.
Every student receives the kind of thoughtful, individualized mentorship that transforms not just their application or grades, but their relationship with learning itself.
We work with a small, carefully selected group of students each semester. That selectivity isn't exclusivity for its own sake — it's what makes genuine depth possible.
What Families Say
"Our daughter's relationship with writing completely changed. She went from avoiding essays to being genuinely proud of her voice."
"Rebekah understood our son's neurodivergence in a way his school never quite did. He finally feels like learning is something he can do."
About
With a background spanning special education, literacy research, and learning sciences — and doctoral training at UC Berkeley — this practice brings together academic rigor and genuine care for each student.
Before founding OH College Prep, Rebekah taught in Bay Area classrooms and developed curriculum grounded in sociocultural learning theory, structured literacy, and neurodiversity-affirming pedagogy.
Students here are known by name, not case number.
Enrollment is limited to a small caseload each semester. Initial consultations are always complimentary — and always a real conversation, not a sales call.
