📖 Our Story

Hi! I’m Peter Duhamel, a passionate high school student attending St. George's School in Middletown, RI, and the founder of Edvance Education. I started this program because I noticed something missing in education: not just academic help, but true mentorship. The kind of support that builds confidence as well as skills.

Middle school can be a challenging time. It is a stage where students need role models who understand their experiences both inside and outside the classroom. That is why Edvance is fully led by high school students, peers who are close in age, relatable, and committed to giving back.

What began as a simple idea has grown into a student-powered movement. At Edvance, we combine our passion for learning with innovative AI to make tutoring more personalized, engaging, and accessible. By blending human connection with the tools of the future, we empower tutors to help middle schoolers succeed. While we use AI to enhance learning, it never replaces the essential human mentorship and 1-on-1 instruction at our core.

Best,

Peter Duhamel

Program Founder & Director

What Makes Us Different?

👥 Peer-Led Mentorship

Our tutors are high schoolers who get what middle schoolers are going through. Each session feels like guidance from a mentor, not a lecture.

🧠 One-on-One, Personalized Sessions

No group classes or cookie-cutter lessons. Every online session is tailored to each student’s needs, goals, and learning style for focused support wherever they are.

🤖 AI-Enhanced Learning

We embrace innovation. By thoughtfully integrating AI tools, we make sessions smarter and more personalized. This empowers our tutors and students while keeping the human connection at the heart of every lesson.

💬 Confidence Comes First

We don’t just boost grades, we build self-belief. Students leave each session more prepared, motivated, and confident.

💸 Free & Mission-Driven

We’re 100% free for families. Edvance is fully student-led, powered by purpose, not profit, so every learner gets the support they deserve.

🛡️ Our Commitment to Safety
