“At Ashley Tutors we find ways to make learning fun for kids because the more they enjoy it, the more they will want to learn,” said Josh Chernikoff, a lifelong Montgomery County resident and the Ashley Tutors team member in charge of finding the most qualified educators. “Demetric is just the person we want to be a member of our tutoring team – enthusiastic and energetic about learning and a positive role model.”
Evans has been a solid performer on the Redskins defensive line playing in 80 games and recording 159 tackles. Now he is tackling education.
“My education from elementary school through college at the University of Georgia has played a vital role in my life,” said Evans. “I want to encourage kids to learn all they can, and help them understand that education is the key that will unlock all their dreams.”
Beyond these exciting events on April 12, Ashley Tutors and Evans are also uniting to create the 92 for A’s program. This program will reward Ashley Tutors’ students who work hard to achieve academic success. Every student who gets one “A” or “O” (Outstanding) will get a mini football signed by Evans.
