My name is Clay McElheny, and I am an experienced educator with 18+ years of experience in education, supporting middle and high school students across math, science, and STEM courses.
I am a Georgia-certified educator with certifications in Mathematics as well as Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Engineering, and Educational Leadership. I have served as a classroom teacher for AP-level courses, an Engineering instructor, and currently as a Work-Based Learning/Dual Enrollment Coordinator, where I support students academically and help them connect learning to real-world applications.
My tutoring approach focuses on breaking concepts into clear, manageable steps, identifying and closing learning gaps, reinforcing classroom instruction, and building confidence and problem-solving skills so students can succeed independently.
Outside of education, I’m a husband and father of two daughters, who keep me very busy and grounded. Being a parent myself helps shape how I work with students—patiently, encouragingly, and with a strong understanding of the balance families manage between school and life.
I look forward to partnering with families through Extra Mile Tutoring to help students strengthen their learning skills, improve performance, and gain confidence in all things math and science.
Clay has been with Extra Mile Tutoring since 2026.
