All of our tutors are students or graduates of Ivy League colleges who have demonstrated academic excellence and expertise in their chosen subjects. No tutors are considered who have not scored in the 99th percentile on their respective tests and who have not demonstrated an outstanding ability to teach their subjects to others. In addition, My Ivy Leaguer puts an enormous premium on personality. We realize that unless your child gets along with his or her tutor, he or she will not learn as well. We hire only the most amiable, patient, and outgoing tutors to elicit the strongest results from your child.
Why do I need a private tutor?
Because every student requires individual attention. As competition heats up around the country for acceptance into the most exclusive colleges and private schools, every possible advantage is necessary to secure your child's place in a school that will satisfy his or her needs. While schools around Manhattan do an excellent job of educating their students, they cannot provide the individual attention that a caring tutor can. Giving your child a teacher and mentor who can understand their personal needs and preferences gives them confidence and drastically increases their academic success.
If I sign up, will there be any contractual obligation or hidden charges?
Absolutely not. We're confident that we will find the perfect tutor for your child. If you are in any way unsatisfied with our services, you're free to look elsewhere with no further obligation.
How do you match your tutors with their students?
We make sure that the teaching styles of our tutors match the needs of their students perfectly. Whether your child is shy or outgoing, patient or impatient, overconfident or lacking in confidence, we have the right tutor for them. Compatibility is our number one priority.
Do I get any benefits for frequent use?
We have a pricing plan to fit every budget and schedule. We offer discounts on everything from 2-hour sessions to monthly plans. Just tell us how often you would like to see your tutor and we will make sure that we give you the optimal pricing available.
How do I meet with my tutor?
Our tutors come to your apartment or child’s school on your schedule. Simply tell us when and where you’d like your tutor to arrive, and he or she will be there.
Do I have to have a tutor come to my home?
Our tutors will meet you or your child anywhere. If it’s more convenient to meet your tutor at a local library or coffee shop, our tutors will gladly meet you there instead.
How do I Get Started?
Simply call toll-free at 877-70-TUTOR to talk with one of our representatives. We give free consultations over the phone or at your home to figure out your child's specific needs and to match them with the perfect tutor. If you'd prefer, you can fill out a form on our Request a Tutor page. None of your information will be shared, and you'll receive a response in less than 24 hours. Once we've matched you or your child with the Ivy League tutor that fits best, your tutor can come to your home, your child's school, or anywhere else convenient for you on your schedule.
