Awesome tutoring service and tutor!
My son has been using WyzAnt since last January and I wish I had found out about them sooner! I love how easy it is to find a tutor, read about their backgrounds and make the connection with them. It is so easy to pay for the lessons and I appreciate the discount if you sign up for a package. Annette is my son's tutor and I can't say enough great things about her! First of all, the level of her commitment and concern for his well being is amazing. She has gone above and beyond to rearrange her schedule to meet with him when he has had important tests coming up and always sends great feedback on his lessons. I couldn't be happier with WyzAnt and plan to use them for the rest of my son's college years. Thanks so much!
Tutor search and selection
All in all, i was very happy with your services ... this was the second time i have used it and was happy with both tutors.
Great Tutor Search
I am a teacher and I often need to find a tutor for enrichment for my students. Finding tutors through your site is a wonderful experience. You have done all of the work, and when we hire a tutor, I feel like I already know them. Also, their education backgrounds are impressive. Payment is so easy and I appreciate the random coupons that you offer that help defray the cost. The charges are usually fair (some are overpriced) but there is enough of a choice that it is easy to find a tutor in our price range. I intend to use your site for all of my students tutoring needs.
Amazing!!!
I have used tutors from this site for both of my daughters. Each tutor has been amazing! They all have met the needs of my girls and have been very profession. I have recommended this site and friends have been please also. Keep up the great work!
Great Tutor Selection
Our ninth grade was struggling with algebra for the second year in a row. Despite having excelled in math myself forty years ago, it was no longer within my ability to give him the help he needed. I googled "Algebra tutors in Los Angeles" and found WyzAnt. I put in our zip code and found several algebra tutors close by. It was that easy. The online profiles were very personable so our son could relate to them. I was contacted immediately by several and picked a recent college graduate in our neighborhood. After her first meeting with our son he said there was no need to interview anyone else: he had found his tutor. She was able to explain things in a way that no one else had. With her help, his second semester grade went from a D to a B+, which also replaced his D from first semester! This was a tremendous boost to his self esteem. This year through WyzAnt we found another college graduate in our neighborhood to tutor him in both geometry and Spanish. Two subjects in one tutor! Since I myself don't speak Spanish, and our son's Spanish teacher only speaks Spanish in class, it has been great to have someone provide the extra assistance he needs.
great tutor search
A very helpful site thank you. We liked the tutor and she responded to us very fast. As far as payment processing it was a very easy step to follow
Helpful site
So far, my experience with this program has been great. I like the way I was able to find the, hopefully, right person to tutor my daughter in reading and writing. I will not know how successful this all has been until I see how my daughter progresses with the tutor and her studies. I really like the method of payment. I can use my credit card and my daughter can just go and meet with the tutor without me having to have her carry money with her to handle the financial obligation. I also feel more safe using my credit card and I get bonus points from my card provider and discounts from you by purchasing more time in advance. Your website is easy to use. I do like looking at the person while reading about them. I feel more connected to the person I choose and, hopefully, my intuition about a person is correct which makes me feel even more comfortable about my choice and the program. I would recommend this site to people "in a heartbeat" !
Wonderful Experience
I have found using WyzAnt to be a wonderful experience. I have recommended your site to my family and friends. My 14 year old was struggling in Honors Geometry. From the first time Joseph came to our house, I knew we had a wonderful tutor. He had a patient way of explaining the things that my son did not understand. My son's average went from a C to a high A! He will also be able to help him with Algebra, Calculus, Chemistry and Physics. I felt helpless with these subjects, so Joseph's help is invaluable. In today's busy world, the convenience of having the tutor come to your house is great. I do not have to bother with checks or cash - Joseph enters the time, the money is charged to my credit card and it's done!
Great Tutor
Arya was great! on time, very professional and knowlegable. He takes the time to listen, and explains very well. Thank you! Monia
Wonderful Resource with stellar Tutor!
We have found every step of using WyzAnt to be effortless and fantastic. Our search for a suitable Tutor in the subject areas that we needed turned back several extremely well-qualified individuals. Our choice of Tutor turned out to be not only a fantastic teacher and guide but some one with caliber beyond compare! Our tutor's experience and education is top-notch and we felt very, very fortunate to have some one of his experience and knowledge guiding our son in his study. We will certainly not hesitate to make use of WyzAnt for our future tutoring needs!
WyzAnt is a great website
I used WyzAnt earlier in the year to get a tutor for my son in writing. I found a wonderful tutor, Carolyn. For his next report card, he went up from a 2 to a 3. Additionally, she went over some math concepts as well. In school they touch on so many math concepts and are unable to spend a great deal of time on them. I find that not "mastering" one topic before moving on to the next one was very frustrating for my son. Carolyn was able to help my son feel more confident with math. This year, my son has been on grade level in all areas. However, due to the upcoming EOGs, I have outreached to WyzAnt again -- just so that we can keep him there. Again, there are so many pre-algebra concepts that they want to expose the children to. But not enough time is being spent on a topic before moving along to another one. WyzAnt is a great website, and I'm very glad that I found it.
Spanish tutor
I wish I would have known about WyzAnt 4 years ago. I have looked and used other tutoring programs before and most of them charge a lot of $$ and they never seem to help with the current stuff they are having trouble with. They want to spend their time working on past stuff and that never worked for us. I have a son that has always struggled in math. I got online and found WyzAnt to tutor him last year in math and he seems to be doing well now. I love having the option to get him help in other subjects. I now use WyzAnt to help him in Spanish. I couldn't have gotten a nicer teacher. He really connects with his tutor and is doing much better in Spanish. I think the tutors are very educated in helping the kids. If any of my kids need help in any area I will not hesitate to contact WyzAnt.
Great tutor search
WyzAnt is a great place to begin your search for a tutor, my experience was wonderful. My search yielded me a variety of tutors within my area. I especially appreciated the customer reviews of the tutors which afforded me a more in depth look at the tutors of interest to me. Luckily we found a wonderful tutor for our son, he has a gift for teaching and has understanding of special needs children. I appreciate WyzAnt for this site, it has made a difference for our son and family.
Reliable service and system
I've found 2 excellent Italian tutors through Wyzant. The system is quite good giving learners information about prospective tutors so that one can choose a tutor based on individual needs and preferences.
Excellent Tutor Service
I am an adult student who had to take Statistical Methods and Research which was only a 5 week course. Therefore, my time was limited in order to gain the knowledge needed to pass this 4 credit course. The college instruction was good because we were able to do the exercises in class along with group discussion. However I did not have a strong math background which made this course more difficult for me to learn the basic concepts and tools. I needed to use statistical analysis to apply to my research project. I decided to search the web using Google to find a statistics tutor in the Rochester, New York area. I was directed to WyzAnt website. I was impressed with their thought provoking (zip code, mileage range, tutor profile, background check, etc.)Questions that I would not have thought enough to ask. After this process I found several tutors in my area, within 2 days, 5 professional tutors responded to my emails after I gave approval to WyzAnt for these possible tutors to contact me via email. I had several choices of experts readily available for me. I decided to have Amanda to be my tutor because she lives in my area. We met and decided that she could help me agree to a place and time and within a week, I had the additional assistance that I needed to better understand statistics. Amanda was always on time, she tutored me in a manner that did not make me feel uncomfortable (stupid). Amanda explained various concepts in steps until I understood. She did not do the work for me. However, she ensured that I fully understood the process before we moved forward in the statistics exercises. She had the patience to explain the concepts until I got it, and I did!!! I also like the simplicity of the how to process the payments, WyzAnt credit discount, and most importantly, WyzAnt customer service. I needed to know the answer to my question over the weekend, which was WyzAnt off hours. However, I emailed customer service and within the same day, I was given an answer via my email to my question. WyzAnt is an excellent tutoring service that was created thoughtfully, professionally, and is nationally known. I have referred WyzAnt tutor service to friends in Dallas, Texas. Thank you, WyzAnt for the opportunity to know about your tutor service use it, and now refer it.
Great Tutor
We used WyzAnt last year and it was great. A fantastic tutor too. Marc made a difference to my son. When I needed a tutor this year for my 10th grade son, I didn't think twice. We had Marc coming back. Thank you for your great service.
Great tutor great experience!
We were able to find a great tutor for our son who was a struggling reader. The tutor was caring and patient and really took her time to help him be successful!!
Excellent Website and Support Service
Excellent service. Your website provided a lot of information about prospective tutors. I contacted the one I was most interested in and am happy with the results. I'm happy with the amount I'm paying and am overall impressed with the quality of the service you provide.
Just existing as a service is great
Thanks for existing as a service on the Internet. I have found the tutoring effective. The website is easy to use. The customer service answers the phone promptly and resolves my issues quickly.
Very easy to use. Alot of people to choose from.
Everything has been very easy. All of the tutors responded and I am so pleased with the person I chose. Payment is all taken care of and it adds less stress.
Tutor search
So far, Wyzant has been an excellent method of finding and meeting a french tutor. I especially like the payment system through Wyzant. It is simple and efficient. Can't thank WyzAnt enough. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a tutor.
Great Customer Support Reps
This was my first time calling WyzAnt for customer support. The first representative that answered my call was so helpful. I was able to express my concerns regarding my account. She was really concerned and even took the time to research my concerns further and gave me a call back. I returned her call at which time she was on the line with another caller and therefore, I spoke with another representative. This representative also took the time to look into my situation. A couple of minutes later, Rochelle called me back to ensure everything was taken care of. I am VERY impressed with the WyzAnt customer support representatives!!
I like that the service is not complicated
I needed a tutor for my daughter for 6th grade math. I went on the website and was able to have my choice of many different tutors with varying abilities. My neighbor turned me on to it and was also very pleased with WyzAnt. I appreciate the pay as you go option, it really fits my budget.
I found the perfect tutor on WYZANT
I have been using a WYZANT tutor for over two years for my daughter. I wanted a piano teacher to come into my home for an hour each week. After reviewing many tutors online and talking to several prospectives, we were able to quickly settle on Lorraine. My daughter is now six years old and loves to play the piano. She is also being taught music theory. It has been the perfect situation. Lorraine has also helped my older child with French. Finding Lorraine was easy because of the access to many tutors on this site. I was also happy with the policy that if for some reason the tutor did not work out, I could use the money in my account for another tutor. For that reason I had no fear giving a large sum of money to WYZANT to not only use for tutors but also so we could receive a fabulous discount relative to the amount I was willing to put down up front. I would not hesitate to use this service to find another tutor in the future and I have recommended WYZANT to many of my friends interested in piano, guitar, and foreign language training.
Easy-to- Phone service, easy to use
Find a tutor was easy. The payment schedule was easy to follow. Using this site helped me find the tutor I needed. Our tutor was patient, knowledgeable, polite, always on time, available for questions by phone. The experience was altogether very good.
Great tutor for ACT
Wyzant helped in finding a great tutor for the ACT. The process was fast and easy. I would highly recommend this service.
Sucessful search for tutor
It took me a long time to find a Java tutor but I did and I am very satisfied with his mastery of Java and his rate is reasonable, Payment plan seems to be working fine. I would refer WyZant to others. I am glad I found your site.
At Last- a Great Tutor!
My high schooler has struggled with math throughout her school career. Unfortunately, she was 'passed on' year after year, squeaking by on adequate FCAT scores, but never really doing well. The turning point was her freshman year with a disengaged, burned out algebra teacher. She fell even further behind. We engaged a private tutor, but were very discouraged by the lack of consistency. We then tried another tutoring service which selects tutors for students. The first tutor left abruptly after only 4 months. The second tutor assigned to us was disastrous. Not only did she not attempt to understand what she was supposed to be teaching my daughter, her English skills were limited and hampered understanding even more. Tutor 3 was excellent, but found another, higher paying job after 4 months. We learned that this tutor had given a month's notice but no replacement was found by the time she had to leave. The owner of the tutoring franchise did not return phone calls. I finally found WyzAnt and our current tutor. He is a middle school teacher in our county, is patient and kind, and my daughter's Algebra 2 scores have already improved significantly. We are happy thus far with his performance and I was very comfortable with the WyzAnt model for searching/selecting tutors. I also appreciate the indirect payment method.
An excellent way to find excellent tutors
Wyzant has been most helpful in finding qualified tutors, and clients can check out student reviews on the tutors. Wyzant, you are the amazon.com of tutoring! I especially like your features which include the background checks, and requiring qualifying exams for the tutors. Payment is easy and affordable in most cases. Thank you, Wyzant.
Great response and tutor help
Needed a tutor same day - found one and was contacted within 1 hour and had someone that afternoon - has been tremendous help!
Quality and Experience of WyzAnt Tutors
I am blessed with having the right tutors for my daughter through WyzAnt. The quality and experience of the tutors is excellent. With the help of WyzAnt tutors, my daughter has a good grasp of the subject. You compare tutors first and you can try different tutors till you find the perfect tutor. Sometimes you get the right tutor from the first try. Tutors come to your home or office and payment is deducted automatically from your credit card on file after the lesson is done. The tutor sends you an e-mail with the lesson to review with the hours spent on the lesson after he/she leaves your home/office. It is convenient that the payment gets deducted afterward from your credit card on file with WyzAnt. By the way, WyzAnt tutors are always accurate in their time spent with student computation. It is a wonderful service.
Never a bad experience.
I have used Wyzant for the last 2 years and each tutor for each subject was well versed. I am so glad I found this website it has surely saved me from many stressful situations.
Great Service
I'm so happy that I found WyzAnt. Finding a tutor was very easy and we love the tutor that we are using. Payment is also very easy. Great job, thanks.
Finding a good fit for your student
Finding good tutors is especially important to us because my daughter is home schooled. We needed tutors in a couple of different subjects and were able to find good ones through WyzAnt. I like the fact that the selection is so large; we were able to find a good fit at a good price. There was one tutor who, although she wasn't doing a bad job, did not leave my child very excited about the lessons. We discontinued working with her and easily found another tutor from WyzAnt who made the subject exciting and vivid. My daughter looks forward to these lessons. So sometimes it can take a little work to find just the right tutor to get your kid excited about learning but it is easy to do through WyzAnt. We are very happy with their services.
Great tutor search and selection
I have found my experience with WyzAnt to be very positive. I was happy with the tutor selection process and how quickly the tutors responded to my posting. Brian has been a wonderful resource for my son and is a polite, responsible and very accommodating young man who is genuinely interested in my son's success in his lessons. I have found the payment process to be easy and hassle free and I feel good about knowing that I am dealing with a reputable company who makes sure that my billing information is secure.
I've started recommending it to my friends
Teachers are excellent with WyzAnt. Their availability is very flexible. More choices of teachers available for most of the subjects. For some subject areas WyzAnt needs more teachers. For example, AP English. The first time I thought it was just a simple website. But, as and when I get more choices of tutors and excellent customer service, I decided to stay with WyzAnt. I've started recommending it to my friends also. Payment is very smooth and easy with credit card. They charge exactly what they promise. I have used websites and their services from care.com, sylvan learning and Whizard Academy. The overall experience with WyzAnt is excellent and far better than others. One complaint: There should be a printing feature that would allow us to print all the payment history in a report form in the printer. For example, I want to print a report on how much I paid to whom and how many hours in a printer not on the screen only. Thanks, Usha
Great tutor search
Overall great tutor search and selection understanding more than I did before. Very knowledgeable and comes more than prepared. My tutor was in contact with as soon as I posted for a tutor. The payment system works well in notifying of payments. Call centers are helpful and friendly. I am also interested in getting a package deal.
Good Tutor Search and Selection
WyzAnt has a good selection of tutors to select from who all seem very competent. Also they have a very good customer support system, that are able to take care of any questions you may have.
A great service
This website was very easy to use to find a great tutor and really was a life saver! Prior to using this site we looked into the local learning centers. The hourly one-on-one tutoring fee at a learning center is much higher than even the highest tutor on this site. We are very happy with the tutor we found here.
Happy with tutor
I was looking for a tutor for a young child who has ADHD, and learning problems in Math. I chose the tutor as she indicated that she had experience with these kind of problems. Even though I am a teacher I found the tutor did a much better job than I could. She engaged him at the beginning with games, and was able to redirect his attention when he strayed. Probably one of the more important aspects is that if he does not understand things presented one way, she shows him various other ways. He still is struggling, because his problems will not be easily overcome, but he feels much more successful. There was one time when the tutor was not available and he started complaining, "Where is Noelia? I need her NOW!" It was very easy to find a tutor as each tutor's biography is presented, and while I have not done this, there is the ability to switch to a different tutor. Payment is extremely simple as I just put this on my credit card and the rest is completed by WyzAnt. The customer service is good and while I have no complaints, the customer service has contacted me to make certain that all is going well. I would recommend WyzAnt to all those who need a short term or long term educational boost.
WyzAnt suits my needs perfectly
WyzAnt has made finding a tutor very easy. The procedure for making the payments are great. I have the ability to buy as little or as many lessons as I want. There are no huge upfront payments or purchases of packages required. For the first time ever my daughter has not been completely lost. Marti is a very good tutor who is very patient.
Great tutor and very helpful customer support reps thank you
I really appreciate your services and I have told other people about you and my experience. I don't what I would have done if weren't for WyzAnt thanks again and deeply appreciate it you and my son appreciates you. Thanks to the tutor and also we just you to know that there has been great improvement in my son that is so far hopefully it will continue to improve more.
Easy, excellent service and a great tutor
We're new to the area and although our daughter is an excellent student, my wife and I were looking for extra help since we can no longer help her in math. We found WyzAnt through the internet, and we chose one of the many tutors that responded to our request for help. Our daughter couldn't be happier and she's finding math one of her easier subjects. The system is easy, paying is convenient, and the results are nothing short of amazing. If there are any other subjects that require assistance, I wouldn't think twice of contacting WyzAnt for additional tutors.
Outstanding Tutor Search
I have been extremely impressed with the tutors that I have used through WyzAnt. They have been very professional and have proven to be flexible when it comes to scheduling. I also believe that the hourly rates for the tutors are very reasonable. When it comes to adding additional money for future tutor hours, I can not say enough good things about the WyzAnt customer service center. The customer service agents have been very responsive and helpful.
No More Fighting Over Math
I was looking for a tutor for my niece for refresher Algebra to help her after a disastrous year in geometry and the upcoming school year. She’d had a lazy, boring and apathetic math teacher in 10th grade that was far more interested in coaching golf than teaching kids. Her grade took a nose-dive and her self confidence went with it. She had previously been a pretty good math student so I didn’t think she was incapable, just needed help and especially with someone she didn’t have to fight with and "got it." I talked to some of the Sylvan-type programs and even had a pretty good recommendation from a friend but didn’t think she needed 2,500 hours worth of tutoring, nor did I want to make the $10,000 commitment they required so I Googled "tutors" in her town. WyzAnt came up. I was very skeptical at first but looked around, checked them out on some chat boards and at the Better Business Bureau and thought it was worth a try. When we started out, I picked out 3 tutors I thought looked appropriate for her needs and let her "interview" them and pick the one she felt was the best fit. The biggest win for us is she LOVES her tutor, gives her the highest rating every time they meet and is making progress in her class this year. She gets one-on-one help with her specific class curriculum, not the "program" handed down by the "home office." Payment is super-easy; I like the "pay-as-you-go" plan and think the fees charged are very fair.
Great tutor
It was easy to find a local tutor, and a great one, our overall experience was great. Payment method is easy, customer support is polite and helpful.
Great idea for finding tutors
When I went looking for a tutor for my grandson, I didn't know where to start. My search brought me to WyzAnt. I wasn't sure how it would work, but I soon learned it is very easy and I got to look up and see which tutor I thought would best fit my grandson. I contacted him and got a reply quickly. Setting up payments is easy and they only charge you after the lesson. They keep you up to date on everything and the tutor has helped my grandson greatly.
