Made finding what I needed easy!

I couldn't have been more pleased with the process for identifying potential tutors, scheduling reminders and payment options. This is a great resource that I hope to use again in the future!

The importance of tutoring

One on one tutoring is more time and cost effective than classroom courses. Students will still only get out of it to the level that they put into it. They need to be completing the homework given and ask questions. At first it might be uncomfortable for students since they cannot hide their misunderstandings or lack of knowledge when it is obvious to a tutor what they need help in. The student needs to be honest and ask questions so the tutor can get to the root of the problem. If you are not having trouble with a particular topic, then it will be obvious and you can quickly move onto another topic. This cannot happen in a class full of students. Just because a special class costs a whole lot more, does not mean it is better. Many of these classes are taught by the same people that would be tutoring. I am certain I could get hired to teach these classes, but I prefer a method that is better for the student. I am both a tutor with WyzAnt with over 500 hours, as well as the parent of a student who uses WyzAnt tutoring services. I have never heard any complaints from anyone I have met through the entire process. Happy tutoring!

Great Tutor And Helpful Customer Support Reps.

I was in search of an Algebra 1 tutor for my son for the next month to prepare him to re-take the Algebra 1 EOC. I narrowed my search by reviewing the credentials, experience, and subject knowledge of the tutors and whom would be the best match for my son. I felt like I needed a little reassurance on my selection because of the limited amount of time we had to prepare for the exam. I contacted a WyzAnt customer support rep and he was extremely helpful considering I was in a panic to find the right person. He emailed me the names of tutors that best fit the criteria I was looking for. I was so excited that his list included the tutor I was considering and she was at the top of his list too. Her name is Kathryn Valentine. We have had 3 sessions together and still have another 5 more. My son is very happy and making good progress thus far. We are looking forward to a successful tutoring completion as he passes the Algebra EOC at the end of July.

Broad Selection

I liked being able to read about many different tutors in one spot. It made selecting one easier. I was able to email back and forth with the different tutors prior to signing up, and I really liked that as well. I didn't actually have to pay anything until I had chosen a particular tutor and we had agreed on terms, location, etc. The quality and experience of the tutors varies greatly. I ended up selecting someone who is a retired school principal and has a masters in the field in which my son needs help. I am very satisfied.

Great Tutor Search and Selection Site

WyzAnt is terrific. It's easy to navigate and you can choose from many different tutors to meet your child's needs. My son, who hated math at school, now says he wishes he could see his tutor every day! She's wonderful!

- Kelly from Carlsbad, CA
Great selection of tutors

We are so happy we found Cindy!!! I was so tired of paying people who were not really helping my children, some of the tutors I had would act so unprofessional and like they didn't want to be here. The tutor I found on WyzAnt (Cindy), is so professional. She comes ready to tutor, with such a positive attitude, and prepared with what she is going to help with. My children love her and have learned something every time she works with them. I am so happy I found this site. Thanks, WyzAnt!

- Joy from Centerville, GA
Great & Encouraging Experience

Our daughter is 10 years old, and will be entering 5th grade this school year. She did not grasp what she needed to in math while in 4th grade, therefore we felt she needed some extra help before moving forward. We contacted WyzAnt online, and quickly located a local tutor that we felt would be compatible & helpful with our daughter. We certainly made the correct choice! The tutor has been professional, patient, encouraging, & an excellent teacher. Our daughter really looks forward to, & enjoys the sessions. She is learning!!! WyzAnt has been a good & professional experience! Thank You!

- Renee' from Lenoir, NC
Very, very excellent!

I found the EXACT tutor I needed, right away, and it has been great. Jonathan is a wonderful and patient tutor and I would recommend him to ANYONE. This is a great service and I would not hesitate to use it again in the future.

- Michelle from South Lyon, MI
So awesome!

I'm so glad that this website exists! It was very easy to use and I found a great tutor right away! I highly recommend this site for all ages!

- Jonathan from Woodland Hills, CA
Many Tutors To Choose From

When I searched in my area and then sorted by highest reviews, I could pick the writing tutor that looked like the best fit for my teenage son. He needs help with writing strategy, so I found a tutor whose education was a good match. It turned out to be a great decision. The billing is easy and my son is building his confidence this summer with the help of an excellent tutor.

- Angela from Alamo, CA
Positive Experience

I appreciated the thorough descriptions for tutors. It made it easy to study their profiles and select one that met our needs. Payment has also been easy. I like that I don't have to pay the tutor directly and that the only discussions we need to have are regarding the lessons he is covering with my children. The tutor is great, and we are happy. Thanks.

- Liliana from Redlands, CA
Easy to navigate

Found a great tutor. Payments are easy and clear. Good communication all around. Like the way the site is set up and how it's run. Thanks for a great experience. Will be back again next summer if we need help!

- Nicky from Burbank, CA
Excellent Tutor

I've used WyzAnt before and found a great tutor for calculus. Now my daughter is taking statistics and once again, WyzAnt came through with an excellent tutor.

- Irene from San Francisco, CA
Great Search

I really really enjoyed the service here at WyzAnt. It took me no time is searching for a tutor that was right for me. Most of all my tutor was very efficient in responding back to me.

WyzAnt as a service

WyzAnt made my search for a specific tutor easy. I was able to locate a tutor who specializes in the skills I needed to learn and put me in contact with her quickly.

- Anita from Mc Calla, AL
Great success finding tutor during summer travel!

Through WyzAnt I was able to find a tutor for my youngest child in the location of a three week sports tournament in which my older children participated. It is a struggle to meet the needs of all the members of a family. This could never been accomplished without the broad network of WyzAnt.

- Day from Lancaster, PA
Much easier and better than I expected

I had heard of WyzAnt before and had a general idea of the services they provided, but when I really checked them out I was very impressed. The process of researching and finding a tutor in my area was simple and quick! My email inquiry was answered within minutes and from that first step everything went very smoothly. I had control of when and where to meet, and didn't have to make a commitment up front. It was easy to decide to work with the tutor, however. She was a perfect fit for my son who was struggling with algebra. He has had 3 lessons with her now, and is beginning to look forward to his math sessions. He shows much more enthusiasm in understanding math and making great progress. After seeing his progress, I called customer service to take advantage of the discounts they offer for purchasing blocks of credit. A very helpful person answered right away and took care of it for me immediately. I have loved everything about WyzAnt since I took that first step.

- Sherri from Clarksville, TN
Very helpful service and easy to use.

Very helpful service. The search was great to navigate, the process was easy to follow and the payment was well-structured. We also like the tutor we found here.

- Dan from Palo Alto, CA
Great Tutor, Smooth Transactions!

It took a little longer than I thought it would to find a tutor and get them approved by my company's benefit plan but once we found the tutor and she started the sessions with our daughter, everything has been going very smoothly.

- Randy from Flower Mound, TX

I just wanted to thank Ms. Leila for all her help, she was awesome. She takes her time to explain everything in a way I can understand. I truly appreciated all your help.

An Excellent Value and Service

WyzAnt is a phenomenal company. The process for finding a tutor is efficient and hassle-free. The company and tutors are honest and transparent. The quality of the tutoring is superior and the cost is a bargain for in-home services. For me, the whole process of finding a tutor was seamless. I highly recommend WyzAnt.

This Is A Great Tutoring Website

I had plenty of tutors to choose from and at a price I could afford! Our tutor is great, my son REALLY likes her, AND she comes to our house! What a TREAT!

- Renee (son Jacob ) from Wylie, TX
Great resource

Having qualified tutors come to your home has so many advantages compared to signing contracts with learning centers who have overheads and other agendas. Using WyzAnt, we were able to quickly find the right tutor locally. The process was very smooth and the follow-up from the site helps keep everyone engaged. We will probably use this system for years to come.

- Tomas from Reading, PA
Very professional

I was impressed by the people we found, even those whose schedules were full were courteous. All communication was handled quickly by the tutors we contacted. The set-up of the website and payment system was easy to navigate.

- Carla from Highland Park, IL
Great Tutor and Selection

I want to give Five Stars to WyzAnt in helping me locate a wonderful tutor in the Destin, Fl area for my 6 year old granddaughter. I receive great reports from both the tutor and my son. My granddaughter is improving in her reading skills, and she is currently working on math and counting. Suzan has been great, and I can tell that my granddaughter has improved self esteem and has more interest in books and learning. Thanks so much WyzAnt! I am sure that we will be renewing when our credit has been exhausted!

- Kathy from Destin, FL
Excellent And Speedy Response To My General Tutor Questions

I read several profiles of the tutors and found a handful who looked perfect for my needs (solid concentration on SAT math prep and price). Jon M. has been a great choice. He is very thorough with my son and loves what he does!

- Jennifer from Wilmington, NC
Perfect fit

My son is 19 years old with ADD and specific learning disabled. The tutor I found though WyzAnt has been a great fit. They work together very well and he states he is finally understanding the math concepts being taught.

- Susan from Wilmington, NC
Great Tutor Search and Selection

We were impressed with how quickly we got a response and were able to obtain tutors in 2 locations (as we needed one while we were on vacation). They were both knowledgeable in their subject and helpful. We would recommend the service to anyone trying it. Our second tutor really helped out daughter to get on track for a very intensive biology course online in the summer. She helped her with her pacing of studying and doing labs. She also made some suggestions for studying skills and ways of attacking the information.

- Abby from Ocean City, MD
Great Tool!

School district policies are to provide tutor lists, but not provide any recommendations or ratings on their tutors. Consequently, I came very close a couple times to hiring tutors that would have been terrible for us. Luckily my kids knew of those teachers and were able to give me a big thumbs down. I love the ratings and feedback on all the tutors on WyzAnt, as well as the introductions from the tutors themselves. This helped us find tutors that are a good fit for our family, and that others have rated highly.

- Beverly from Sammamish, WA
Great tutors, easy service

I had the pleasure of using two WyzAnt tutors. Both were on time, ready to work and knowledgeable. I especially appreciate Christopher T. who had reviewed the assignments ahead of time, and seemed invested in my understanding and success. He took his time to make sure I understood the finance and accounting problems and was very professional. I am also super pleased with how easy it is to use the service.

- Glynda from Laurel, MD
Great Tutor Search and Selection

The tutor I used for calculus is very reliable, knowledgeable, and has helped me tremendously on my summer class, which has moved quickly. I am very impressed so far, and looking forward to your service for later classes.

- Daniel from College Station, TX
Good tutor search tool and compatible, capable tutors.

Wyzant has been a helpful site for finding a tutor. I was able to easily maneuver through the system and find a tutor that works for me.

Super simple with great results

I was looking for a geometry tutor (high school level) for my daughter and came across WyzAnt on the internet. After posting my inquiry, within 24 hours I received six responses in my area. All of which were qualified tutors. After a few emails I narrowed down my search and scheduled with a tutor. It was a perfect match. My daughter is doing much better and has gained a whole new outlook towards her math class. She now has confidence in her work. She no longer feels inadequate or lost. Actually she is looking forward to the new school year knowing she has someone she can turn to if she needs help. This whole process has been a breeze. If I had known it was this easy I would have done this a year ago. Thank you WyzAnt!

- June from Coventry, CT
So glad I found your website!

We had been trying to locate a math tutor for our daughter locally, but struggled to find someone qualified for the college math level, as well as someone who could accommodate our location and her schedule. WyzAnt brought it all together so easily! With user reviews and background checks, we found a great tutor with flexible scheduling, and the payment process has been wonderful. Also, receiving weekly email updates about her progress gives me peace of mind that she IS learning and grasping the required concepts. I just wish I had heard about WyzAnt years ago!

- Diane from Burke, VA
Amazing Tutor Search and Selection

Parental and child anxiety are back at ground zero with confidence restored. Math issues are stabilized and becoming resolved due to a very positive experience with my tutoring resources and selected tutor. There are no buyer regrets,questions or issues period regarding my choices thanks to WyzAnt!

- Mildred from Knoxville, TN
Quick and easy to maneuver site!

I was looking for someone to assist my niece, who is from Germany, with her English. She has had English in her school already, but application process, rules and regulations were minimum. The tutor she has is exactly what she needed. I heard from another person first, but the cost was very high. I didn't know that our request went out to other tutors, but that worked out to our benefit!

- Isabelle from Cedar Rapids, IA
Wonderful Tutor Search Site

I have been extremely happy with my experience with WyzAnt. We found a fabulous tutor who my son truly enjoys working with. I can't say enough about your site.

Very Helpful and Fast - Tutoring a Success

My name is Meaghan and I work in Human Resources. I looked to WyzAnt to find an ESL/English tutor for an employee. It was easy to search for a qualified tutor in the location we were looking for, and I received immediate feedback from the tutor I connected with. The tutor profile made it easy to find an appropriate tutor to fit our needs. I recently received feedback from this employee that the tutoring is going great!

- Meaghan from Miami, FL
Great Tutor Search

The ability to search by keyword allowed me to find a tutor immediately that fit what we were looking for. The profiles were very informative and we quickly found a tutor that seemed tailor-made for our son. She has been extremely informative and kept us in the loop. Very excited about the improvement we'll see in our son because of her tutoring!

- Debbie from Jacksonville, FL

Finding a tutor was very easy. He has been very professional and encouraging. My son who wouldn't normally be patient for a tutor seems to have no problem in going and has seen results.

Help for my Grandaughter

I live in Illinois and found a tutor through WyzAnt to help my granddaughter in California. The tutor has visited for 3 sessions and I must say I am thrilled with the professionalism and detailed reports of each visit of my granddaughter. I am looking forward to a positive outcome for beginning of school for Sept 2014.

I received the exact help that I needed. Finding a tutor was easy. Definitely the best program to use to find a tutor for any subject that you need extra help in!

- Cody from Newton, NC
Great tutor search & selection.

Your tutors responded quickly to my inquiry. I appreciate the reviews on each tutor and the updates on background checks. I wish I had known about WyzAnt services before. I would definitely have used your tutors and have referred others to this great service before this. I also appreciate the ease of payment, the payment discount opportunities and not having to pay until I am satisfied with the quality of tutoring that I searched for. I was pleased to find that my first meeting and interview went so well that we canceled all other appointments with prospective tutors.

- Jasmine from Poughkeepsie, NY
The Perfect Tutor!

I stumbled across your website while performing a search for a Spanish tutor in Baltimore. I was discouraged, because I had been looking for quite awhile for a tutor from Spain, and I hadn't had any luck. But I found the perfect tutor, from Spain, at a fair price, only 20 minutes from my house, using the WyzAnt site! And using PayPal couldn't be easier! Muchas gracias, WyzAnt!

- Ann from Glen Arm, MD
Found Great Affordable Tutor

I needed a speech tutor for my 5 year old for the summer. I found a highly qualified teacher who was very flexible with her time and willing to drive to my son's school to tutor him. He is doing great and the tutor is very communicative. We are very happy with our WyzAnt experience.

- DeAnna from Kansas City, MO
Excellent one-on-one tutoring

Excellent experience. One-on-one tutoring equates to a week's worth of school attendance. Seeing improvement already. Our tutor keeps our son engaged and interested in his progress. Very satisfied with all aspects so far!

- Nancy from San Mateo, CA
Perfect Match!

WyzAnt is convenient and extremely easy to use! I really appreciate the  outstanding customer service, as well as the well-designed online system. Most importantly, my tutor is a perfect match for my child's learning style!
