Peer Tutors

Peer Tutors

Peers are brilliant college undergrads who connect with your child on a more even level. They have high test scores, GPAs, and an impressive ability to communicate ideas while also being great listeners.
Pro Tutors

Pro Tutors

Pros have graduated from prestigious universities and often times have or are pursuing graduate degrees. They're every bit as awesome as peers except that they have years of experience.

We don't mind meeting up at 10pm or hearing about your daughter's ten worst dates, and we get that mom's PhD from Rice in molecular 
biology means diddly-squat to your precocious ninth grader taking freshman bio.  We are peer tutors & mentors - brilliant, professional, charismatic.

We are Brilliant

The majority of our tutor Analysts, about 75%, are current undergraduate or graduate students of Rice University.  The remaining 25% are recent alumni of comparable Top Tier universities and programs.

Professional

We understand that it's one thing to be brilliant but a whole other skill to make something of these smarts.

We start by only hiring tutors with a demonstrated history of professionalism and task management.

Then we train them in the ways of tutoring, planning, scheduling, and project management.

Finally, our professional managers stay on top of your needs and in contact with you to make sure we are meeting your expectations.

and Charismatic

Why does my son like being there so much?  Can you make sure he's actually doing something?

Such is not an uncommon concern among our Clients. Our tutors are natural people people.  

We know how to form a connection with your child that will enable us to both lead by example and by instruction.

What's our secret?  It certainly helps that we're not your child's parents and that we're relatively closer in age and experiences.
