Locating and using tutor

My experience with WyzAnt has been terrific. WyzAnt's website is easy to navigate and I was able to locate a tutor easily. My experience with my tutor has been fantastic. Shawn Woods works around my schedule without question. Shawn has helped me tremendously with my college algebra 2 class, and he explains it in a way that I can understand it. I would highly recommend him to others, and recommend WyzAnt's services to those who need help in school or any other assistence.

Great Job WyzAnt!!

Once I decided I needed a tutor for my math class I really wasn't sure how to proceed. Thank goodness I found WyzAnt! One simple email and I found several folks that could help me. I ended up with Shawn and he is great! I also love the fact that I do not have to pay him directly - really nice to take that dynamic out of the situation. Great job WyzAnt!

- Stacey from Lawrence, KS
Great Service

So far I have been impressed by the whole process. It was easy to locate a tutor and processing payments has been just as easy.Thank you.

- Anne from Sturbridge, MA
Great Service

I didn't know finding a tutor would be this easy. The no hassle payment process is great. I like being able to read over the details of each lesson with the Tutor's Review I receive after each session.

WyzAnt review

I am extremely satisfied with WyzAnt and my sons tutor Judy. She is very conveniently located to my home, also my child is comfortable with her. The billing system is awesome and easy, the updates I receive on my email are really informative that way the tutor doesn't have to explain right away what they do even though she does anyway, and she can start with another student right away. WyzAnt is Awesome!!!

- Ben from Opelousas, LA
Great find!

WyzAnt has really been a blessing. It was easy and I found lots of qualified tutors. My son is on his way to better grades.

- Tammy from Arnold, MD
Great Tutor Selection!

I came to WyzAnt with a heavy heart; having already been through several tutors that were not connecting with my daughter. She is in an advanced math class and her teacher moves quickly and expects the kids to teach themselves. I needed someone who could pick up anywhere, and was proficient in every area of math. I was able to quickly locate a multitude of advanced math tutors on this site, and through emails had my daughter in sessions within a few days. Thank you WyzAnt for a remarkable site that allows anyone to easily surf and find a great tutor!

WyzAnt Review

It has been a delightful and simple process. The tutor is phenomenal and she always keeps it fun. So many thanks for offering this wonderful service!

- Tanya from Haddock, GA
Awesome experience!

I'm really happy with the experience so far. The billing was confusing at first. When you buy $400 worth of credit, it only costs $360, but then the first lesson was deducted and you end up with $340 credit. I think that could be explained better. But our tutor is fantastic. She's really patient, shows up on time, has taught my son to deal with the things about Algebra that really confuse him. I'm very impressed with the service and the tutor!

- Julie from Studio City, CA
Very pleased with our tutor!

We have had a few sessions so far and every day we are seeing a improvement with my son. I realize we have a ways to go but our tutor, Sheri has been awesome - so glad I hooked up with WyzAnt and found her. Thank you.

- Laura from Vallejo, CA
Experience with WyzAnt

my experience was a little frustrating. It took much longer than I expedcted to find a tutor. There were a variety of reasons for delays. 1. The tutor was booked up and had no more openings; however, they were still listed on WyzAnt. 2. The tutor was no longer part of WzyAnt and was no loger available for tutoring; however, they were still listed on WyzAnt. 3. Tutors with no expertise in my particular area of tutoring needs were still sent to me by WyzAnt. I am very pleased with the tutor I am presently using; however, I think you should keep your totor database up to date to save others from a similar experience.

- Wesley from League City, TX
Very easy, great service and professional tutors

WyzAnt provides many tutors to choose from in your area with pictures and credentials to review. They make it so easy to contact the tutor by e-mail and the response is very fast. I had a tutor set up for my son within a couple of days. Our tutor is professional, knowledgeable and very positive.

- Amy from Temecula, CA
Helpful support

Our first tutor was not a perfect fit, however, customer support found us another that was just what we needed. Thank you!

- J from Westmont, IL
Helpful tutors

I was pleased with the quick response to my request for a tutor and the availability and time they spent with my daughter. She went from a D last test to an A!

- SHERRI from Lincoln, NE
Tyrel is awesome!

Our tutor is awesome! He has helped my son more in 3 sessions than others did in months! We lucked out in finding him through WyzAnt - payment is easy and convenient via credit card.

- Carlin from Ogden, UT
Tutor quality

Excellent tutors ! Their knowledge, reliability , accessibility and flexibility are stellar. I highly recommend this site and service.

- Cynthia from Chapel Hill, NC
Exactly what I was looking for

Through WyzAnt, I was able to put my worries to rest in just a few clicks! They had a huge selection of highly qualified tutors! The website was so easy and fun to use. I was able to view each tutor's profile and credentials instantly. I found plenty of local tutors and was able to communicate with them the same day! I was impressed that most of the tutors were willing to work around my schedule. I found a great tutor who is very professional. My child showed a great amount of confidence in math after just one session with her tutor. I am very pleased.

- Lovely from Bellflower, CA
Just what I needed!!

It was very easy...from finding a tutor to making payment arrangements. My experience with WyzAnt was great!!

- Candice from Conway, AR
Great tutor and service

So far so good. I'm three weeks into lessons and all has been great. Maria, my Spanish tutor, has been excellent. Initially made a deposit and lesson fees are simply withdrawn from this. No problems to date. Thanks!

- Bob from Naperville, IL
Very good tutor and the weekly communications are very good.

Shirin is an excellent tutor. She is always pleasant, professional and very knowledgable about the subject matter. Wyzant has been "on the mark" with regard to communication about billing, rating tutoring sessions and providing answers to questions.

- Anne from Monkton, MD
Help at the tip of my fingers!

I'm not gonna lie...I was skeptical but I needed help and didn't know where to look. I still don't know how in hell I stumbled across your website but I am so glad I did! I contacted an amazing tutor who teaches chemistry. My child who didn't understand a lick of chemistry is now comprehending the material and actually enjoying it, just after a few tutoring sessions. Billing is easy and I couldn't be happier.

- Tracey from Lorton, VA
Great Tutor, very helpful and very smooth transaction.

I thank WyzAnt for the services provided. I was desperate looking for a good tutor for my daughter and I found the right one. The process was very smooth and the tutor was very helpful.

- Erick from Boynton Beach, FL
Soooo helpful!

My experience with WyzAnt has been very good. In researching tutoring options, WyzAnt was one of the first that came up in my online search and turned out to be the best value as well as the easiest to use website. Finding a tutor with the right specifications we were looking for (subject, location, qualifications) took less then 10 minutes. The tutor, Ryan B., is working out very well. I originally asked for his help with my older son but have since used his help with my daughter as well. His skill and ability to teach what he knows is terrific. He is also great with communication, scheduling and promptness. He also gives a very clear review of the tutoring sessions in a follow up e-mail. I would highly recommend WyzAnt and Ryan B. to any who ask and even those who don't!

- Carrie from Parker, CO
Great Tutor Search and Selection

I was able to find a tutor about 7 minutes from our home. This was a great resource tool for me when I was really needing to find ACT tutoring for my daughter on such short notice. Thanks.

- Velicia from Garland, TX
Great Experience

I have used WyzAnt three times for tutors to help my daughter in various areas at the college level such as Calculus, Chemistry and Genetics. So far, I have been very pleased with the high caliber of tutors and their professionalism. They have all been very flexible in scheduling around her availability. I have also been very impressed by the quick response whenever a tutoring inquiry is made. I highly recommend this tutoring network.

- Beverlee from Independence, MO
So far so good!

I live in New Jersey and needed to find a tutor for my college son in Indiana. Found a young woman who is nice, qualified and reliable to tutor him for some standardized tests. There would have been no way for me to find a good tutor long distance without the help of WyzAnt--glad you exist!

- Nancy from Vincennes, IN
Business statistic tutoring

I was having a tough time with a business statistic class. For the past two weeks I have been working with Kevin C, he has been a fantastic help. Kevin has helped me understand the problems, checked my work and as a result, my grades have risen. I would highly recommend his help to anyone working in Kevin's areas of expertise.

- Bill from New Albany, OH
Simple to find right match.

The process of finding a tutor through the website is simple and made it easy to find the right match for our daughter.

- Andy from Antioch, IL
EXCELLENT MATHS TUTOR

We used Wyzant to locate a maths tutor for our daughter. Wyzant website made the search very easy and payment is also straightforward. We are very pleased with the tutor and most importantly, our daughter actually looks forward to the sessions!

- KAREN from Brookline, MA
finding a good fit was easier than we expected

We were at a loss where to begin looking for a tutor. Our child is in a private school 20 miles in town, and the school's suggestions were not logistically convenient. We googled/binged for local tutors. WyzAnt was represented well. The site was easily maneuverable and we found two tutors that looked like they might help. After meeting both, my child found a good fit and is continuing with her on a weekly basis. We paid for a block of lessons, which gave us a nice discount - a bonus we really appreciate.

- Kathryn from Franklin, MA
Very positive experience

Last night was our fourth tutoring session, and I am starting to notice some improvement in my son's attitude towards homework math especially. Our tutor has been great.

- Emma from Simi Valley, CA
Great Customer Service!

I have enjoyed my experience with WyzAnt and plan on using in the future for myself as well as for others. Thanks, for a great job.

- Janet from Crowley, TX
THE SMILE !

Our son has really enjoyed working with Sean. He seems to have a new level of confidence in Chemistry and Algebra II which is helping him be happy again. I love seeing my 15 year old son smile!

- Sonja from Columbus, OH
Need Higher Level Tutors

Dear WyzAnt Administrator; Finding a tutor on your website, the payment process, customer support is all great. I think you have set up a great system and response is speedy. you have a very large selection of tutors all over with a diversity of backgrounds. I really appreciated that. I have met with two tutors, Priya & Robert Z. who are both very nice, very intelligent, very professional and engaging individuals. Both were prompt in meeting times. I would highly recommend them to anyone as tutors. Unfortunately, it is difficult to find tutors who are knowledgable in the area of neuroscience or neurogenetics, so I have not been able to find any tutors suitable for the level of expertise that I need. As a marketing advantage, you really should consider and seek out tutors that are for higher level courses so that individuals like myself can benefit from these tutors. I did not find any in my searches that matched my needs. I have a bachelor's, masters and a doctorate degree, but it had been 12 years since I was in graduate school and I needed someone with a high level understanding of statistical analyses specifically for the fields of neuroscience and neurogenetics. Since these fields are currently the norm and the wave of the future, it would behoove Wyzant to find tutors specializing in this areas. People returning to school for one reason or another are also most likely individuals who are able to afford your services. That's my line or free marketing advice : ) I that appreciate the service of WyzAnt in general and I would recommend it to others based on specific level needed.

- Teo from Lowell, MA
Good Place to Find a Qualified Tutor

Easy to use, competent tutors and timely response. Our tutor has been excellent. Our son is already gaining more confidence in his school work and in himself.

- Cherry from Douglasville, GA
Fantastic Value!

What a great find. I used WyzAnt to find my daughter her SAT tutor. It worked out so well she raised her SAT scores in all areas. The price is affordable and her tutor was very professional. I would recommend WyzAnt for your next tutor search!

- Deanna from Riverhead, NY
Wonderful selection

It was easy to search and find a good variety of tutors with varying prices. I highly recommend others to use this service.

- Laura from Reston, VA
Best idea I have come across

I was really worried about finding a tutor for my college age daughter, due to her work and class schedule she only has a small window of time for tutoring. I contacted 3 tutors using Wyzant and got immediate feedback from 2 of the 3. After learning that one of the 3 could fit her in it has been smooth sailing since then. The communication is great, the payment easy and feedback is awesome. I would have no problem recommending this program to anyone.

- JENNIFER from Covington, LA
Great tutor

I Found this site by a google search of Math tutor in Plano Texas, I was thrilled to find this site. John Mow is wonderful and the perfect fit for my child. Was a little concern on giving my billing info before talking to tutor. I did not understand why or if you would bill my account first. Other than that all has been great and I have told several friends about this site. I work in a small private school and we are always in need of tutors. I loved seeing the profile and picture of tutors It really helps with the selection.

- Robyn from Plano, TX
Great Experience

Great Tutor!!

I am so happy i came across this website... it helped me find a great tutor for my 11yr old sister! she enjoys and actually looks forward to her time spent with Janet, her math tutor. Janet is very helpful, friendly, and exudes only positive, helpful energy. Her session reviews are very helpful, and detailed. i know my sister will only progress with her time spent with Janet!

- Hina from Macomb, MI
Great tutor

Everything is great. The tutor, payment method, and reviews. I would recommend your services to others.

- Linda from Chicago, IL
So thrilled I found this site!

As a graduate student in sociology, I learned that one of the huge contributors to educational inequality is the "summer learning gap." It is a gap that many children in the U.S. experience after their first summer out of school. Put simply, the "gap" is a result of many students forgetting what they learned over the summer months. If you ask any teacher, it is very challenging to catch these students up once they start school again. Those students who are exposed to learning opportunities over the summer in the form of camps, activities and tutoring, minimize this summer learning gap. In hopes to mitigate the effects of the summer learning gap, I was hoping to find some kind of tutoring service. After researching the well-known "learning centers," I was discouraged by many of the reviews I read online and the overall experience of feeling like I was being sold a timeshare. That's when I found WyzAnt and I could not be more pleased! I was able to look through numerous profiles and email with many different tutors until I found what I hoped to be the right fit. Fortunately for our family, we struck gold on the first try. Margaret H. is amazing with my very active 7 year old son. She was able to tell right away what he needed help in and develop lesson plans to strengthen those areas. His handwriting is still strong and he is slowly but surely mastering phonics and becoming a more confident reader. She is very patient and knows how to keep his attention. WyzAnt allowed me to invest in my son rather than invest in a corporation that would have transformed my son into a number. Thank your for this service! It is worth every penny!

- Marisela from Lawrenceville, GA
Wonderful Service

Your site is awesome. Without your service, i don't think i would have been able to find the best tutor i have ever had. Thank you so much.

- Ronald from Eau Claire, WI
Very Helpful Tutoring Experience

Wyzant provided an easy method of searching for a competent tutor. I prepaid for lessons which were deducted after each tutoring session so I did not have to think about making payments later. The tutor I selected, Patricia H was remarkable. We initially met so she could assess my needs and lessons began immediately. Her knowledge was impressive and teaching style comprehensive. I would definitely use Wyzant again and suggest it to others.

- Sharon from Virginia Beach, VA
Pretty easy to use

I found Wyzant easy to use. After reviewing the info on several tutors, I selected one to contact. That led to another half dozen contacted me (which was not necessary and a bit annoying, although had the one I contacted not worked out, I might have tried one of the others). Rosie has been easy to work with, and my daughter really likes her help. We'll learn more about the effectiveness of the tutoring when we see how a couple of tests and how homework goes. I appreciated having WyzAnt as a resource. I have a little concern about how big the percentage of the fee is that WyzAnt keeps however. It seems very high, compared to the value-added from the tutor versus the value-added from WyzAnt. Please consider lowering your percentage.

- Jane from Washington, DC
Great Tutor Search anbd Selection

I am extremely impressed with your services. My daughter has used three tutors and each one was very good. Using a zip code really helped me to focus on tutors in the area needed for my daughter. The system is excellent and easy to use. Also like the fact that you do background checks on the tutors. Your billing system makes is also excellent. Thank you so much.

WyzAnt: Wise Decision

For me, WyzAnt was a wise decision. Their pre-screened list of tutors, with varying levels of expertise, gave me the opportunity to select from a wide range of experts. WyzAnt did the footwork, searching and screening of tutors that would have cost me a lot of time and money. With a few clicks of the 'mouse' I made a one-on-one, in-home match with a very personable tutor who is not only an expert in her field, but also a motivator who inspired my graddaughter to excel in a second language and be prepared for success in a ever growing global economy. Thanks so much!

- Etta from Miramar, FL
Very helpful and easy

The Wyzant website has been very easy to navigate, we found tutors fitting our specific needs and picked one and it as turned out well! The payment page is easy to understand and it keeps track of everything for us. Great website!

- SHANNON & JAMES from Osceola, IN
Wonderful Tutor

Jennifer is pleasant, informative and has a great deal of patience. She allows him to present her with a problem that he cannot overcome, they work on it, then she reinforces it with basic math rules. He has come a long way.

- Debbie from New Braunfels, TX
Great service

Thank you, I had two tutors just to help me catch up. I only needed them once each, but they did a great job and I would recommend WyzAnt to my friends, if I need help again you will hear from me.

- Harrison from North Las Vegas, NV
Great service.

This is a fantastic service. Very well organized and professionally conducted. Most of all, I'm very pleased with the tutor I selected. She's knowledgeable, professional, on time, and very focused. Overall, a great value. All positive.
