  Question:

  How much does tutoring cost through WyzAnt?

  Answer:

  Tutors set their own rate and most range in price from $30 to $50 per hour, with others either lower or higher depending on experience and cost of living considerations. However, WyzAnt does offer discounts to our students for making an advance purchase.

  • You receive a 5% discount on packages of $200-$399, with a total cost of $190-$379.
  • A package of lessons that would cost $400-$999 will receive a 10% discount, resulting in an upfront charge of $360-$899.
  • A package worth $1,000-$2,499 will be eligible for a 15% discount, with a total cost of $850-$2124.
  • Packages of $2,500+ will receive a 20% discount and cost $2,000 and up.
  Remember, satisfaction with your first hour of tutoring is guaranteed and the unused portion of your purchase amount is both refundable and transferable to any WyzAnt tutor.

I believe we only learn well when we love to learn. As a result, it's my first goal to teach you the fun side of whatever it is you're trying to master, even if it's something seemingly boring like a standardized test. Even the most dry subjects have something in them to relish in, and once you grasp that, learning the rest comes far easier.

I am a Ph.D. student in the History of Science and Mathematics at the CUNY Graduate Center. I love my field because it is broad-based and I get to study math and science as well as the discipline of history. My background is in the humanities but I have a real talent for and interest in the sciences.

I have worked for five years as an independent tutor and, at one time, for Kaplan Test Prep & Admissions. I have tutored students to success in American History, Global History, Geometry, Algebra, Trigonometry, and on many standardized tests: specifically, I have tutored for the ISEE, SSAT, SHSAT, SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT, and LSAT. I have worked with students from 5th through 12th grade and adults in their 40s who needed to re-learn math in order to take a standardized test and go back to school. I have taught students with learning disabilities and students at the top of their class who need a little extra on their SAT score. I love teaching and I love helping people achieve goals they never thought they could.

It's clear to me that anybody can learn; they just need the right teacher. My greatest skill as a teacher is that I am well-rounded enough to find a context which you understand and bring whatever it is you need to learn into that context. I have always enjoyed all of my tutoring experiences, and I know you will enjoy them, too.
