About Golden Tutoring

Passionate About STEM. Dedicated to Your Student.

I'm Luke Palassis, a summa cum laude Computer Information Systems graduate and lifelong academic achiever — I also finished at the top of my high school class.

That journey taught me more than just the material. It showed me how to learn hard things — how to break down a tough concept until it clicks, and how to stay motivated when the work gets challenging.

I offer one-on-one K–12 STEM tutoring in math, science, and coding, both online and in-person in the Columbia, SC area. Every session is built around your student — their pace, their learning style, and their goals.
