Matt Breidigan
Founder and CEO of Orango
Orango, founded in 2023 by Matt Breidigan, was created to help students overcome the challenges of mastering complex concepts. With years of experience as a chemistry tutor, Matt noticed a recurring problem: disorganized instruction that left students feeling frustrated and underprepared. Determined to address this, he established Orango to provide a clearer, more structured, and supportive learning experience.
A graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s esteemed Chemical Engineering program, Matt brings together his analytical expertise and passion for teaching to develop a unique, logical teaching method. This approach simplifies even the most challenging topics into manageable, understandable steps, helping students build confidence, improve comprehension, and achieve academic success.
The teaching style that Matt developed became the foundation upon which the entire Orango organization was built. To expand its reach and impact, Matt assembled and trained a team of highly skilled tutors. These tutors—handpicked from the best and brightest former students—undergo rigorous training in Orango’s signature teaching method and are held to the highest possible standards. This ensures that every student benefits from the same exceptional clarity, support, and transformative learning experience that Orango is known for.
At Orango, the focus is on empowering students through clear instruction, practical strategies, and personalized support. Designed with students’ busy schedules and academic goals in mind, the organization emphasizes both conceptual mastery and real-world application. Orango is committed to unlocking each student’s potential and equipping them with the tools to excel in their courses and beyond.
"What" vs "Why" Learning
At Orango, we recognize that the way students are taught can make all the difference in their understanding and success. Most traditional instruction follows a “What” style of teaching: students learn what happens and what to do in specific situations. While this approach provides surface-level knowledge, it falls short when students are faced with unfamiliar problems, especially on challenging quizzes or exams. This lack of deeper understanding often prevents students from reaching their full potential.
At Orango, we take a different approach. Our teaching style focuses on the “Why”—why something happens, why a concept works, and why one approach might be better than another. By understanding the reasoning behind the material, our students gain a deeper mastery of the subject. They’re not just memorizing facts; they’re learning how to think critically and apply their knowledge to new, unexpected situations.
This “Why”-based approach ensures that our students are prepared for whatever challenges come their way. It fosters a much higher rate of success, helps students unlock their full potential, and equips them with the confidence and skills they need to excel academically and beyond.
The Advantages of Remote Tutoring
At Orango, we focus on delivering exceptional tutoring services remotely through Zoom. While traditional tutoring often happens in person, we believe that remote tutoring offers unique advantages that not only match but exceed the benefits of face-to-face sessions.
Here’s why remote tutoring works so well for our students:
Convenience and Flexibility:
Remote tutoring allows students to learn from anywhere, at any time. There’s no need to commute to a specific location, eliminating the time and stress that can come with travel. Whether you’re at home, on campus, or even traveling, Orango tutoring fits seamlessly into your schedule.Enhanced Visual Tools:
Using virtual whiteboards enables us to teach more effectively and efficiently. With multiple colors, striking visuals, and the ability to directly annotate screenshots, we create a dynamic and engaging learning experience—especially for visual learners. For instance, if you’re struggling with a problem from class, we can immediately upload a screenshot and work through it together in real time. This level of visual clarity simply isn’t achievable in a traditional setting.A Comfortable Learning Environment:
Some students may feel nervous or self-conscious about tutoring in person. Remote sessions offer a more comfortable and familiar environment, allowing students to focus entirely on their learning without distractions or added pressure.Increased Accessibility:
Remote tutoring removes geographic barriers, allowing us to bring Orango’s signature teaching style to students across the globe. No matter where you are, if you have an internet connection, you can access the clarity, support, and instruction Orango is known for.Efficient Session Management:
Remote tutoring allows us to seamlessly integrate technology into lessons, such as sharing resources, working on digital problem sets, or revisiting session recordings. This streamlined approach maximizes learning time and ensures students get the most out of every session.
At Orango, our remote tutoring approach isn’t just about adapting to modern technology—it’s about enhancing the learning experience to make it as efficient, accessible, and impactful as possible. By breaking down barriers to learning, we empower students to reach their full potential, no matter where they are.
