Excellent Source of Tutoring Information

I find this website to be extremely helpful to find tutoring around your area. Very user friendly and the customer service is excellent. I was very pleased with the information provided in the website and with the tutor. I also liked the payment plans offered and the discount you get when you purchase several lessons in advance. Thank you for making parents' lives easier to find the appropriate tutoring for their kids. I will definitely recommend WyzAnt Tutoring to my family and friends.

Wonderful Tutors

My son and I were very impressed. The tutor was very prepared for everything. It was like being in the first day of school. He let my son take an evaluation skill while he explained to me what would take place over the period of tutoring. I am really glad I decided to do this. I have friends whose children need tutors as well that I have told about this process. Thanks!!!

Excellent Tutors

This is the best experience I have had with any tutors. Julie was great with the kids. Finding a tutor was so easy. I felt like it was just a click of a button and I had several tutors to choose from. All the information was right there to make your decision. I love the payment arrangements. You don't have to worry about giving the money at the time of the tutor lessons. It is just automatic. Love it. The support is great. If you have questions all you do is call or email, I prefer email as I am not a phone person at all. My overall experience and impression is this is the only place to find a tutor. All you have to do is give a brief summary of what your child is having difficulties with and it actually distinguishes the different tutors. It is great. I have told many people about this website and hopefully they will benefit like my kids are benefiting. Thanks WyzAnt for a great program and I will definitely be using you in the future.

Helpful Tutor Search

I used WyzAnt to search for a tutor and within a week I had set up my first session with a tutor. The profiles of tutors are so easy to read and the web site is very user friendly. Even when I wasn't emailing tutors, tutors were emailing me giving their credentials and why they would be a good fit to tutor me. There is such a wide variety of tutors for so many different subjects that I am sure to use WyzAnt for any of my other tutoring needs. I loved the package deal that came with pre-ordering credit from the website, as tutoring can get expensive it is nice to get a break anywhere you can, and WyzAnt definitely gives you the opportunity to save money and get extra credit for tutoring every which way you turn. The site also gives you tutors that are in your area, so finding a tutor that can meet at your home, or your college is as easy as 1 2 3. I loved using this website to search for a tutor and definitely suggest this site to anyone else who is looking for a tutor.

Great Tutoring Resource

We signed up for WyzAnt in October 2010 and immediately got responses from each tutor we selected. Making the selection was the most difficult part because there were so many qualified tutors in our area for high school English as well as advanced math and science courses. We chose two young, super smart (scary smart, really) recent college grads and have had great success. Dan in particular has been a great hit with our 16-year old son who was failing Geometry before we got to WyzAnt. Dan has really targeted our son's difficulties and is now helping him to strengthen his Algebra skills. Anna tutored our high school senior for the SAT writing portion and significantly improved his score. She is also tutoring him in AP Stats and Honors Physics. The bonus for us is that Anna is very familiar with our high school's math program as she tutors many of the kids from the same public school, if not the same class. Overall, we can't say enough about WyzAnt. Tutors are great, response is immediate and satisfaction is overwhelming!

No complaints

I was able to find a tutor who taught my subject. I received a quick response and was able to begin lessons almost immediately. I paid for my first hour, and met my tutor at a public location. Since I am satisfied with how the session went, I will be paying for more lessons. I am still figuring out how the payment system works, but so far everything is going smoothly. The only complaint I have is that I could only find two tutors near me for Japanese. Of these two, only one was a native speaker; therefore I really only had one choice. Thankfully the tutor turned out to be prepared and fairly personable.

So far very helpful

Your system did a very good job of putting me in touch very quickly with a number of possible tutors for a quite specific, college level math course. One possible tutor lived too far away, but within 24 hours we had connected with another tutor who lives near us. So in the space of less than three days we went from seeking a tutor to our student having his first meeting with the tutor. The tutor seems nice and well-qualified.

great find!

My son was having a difficult time in his German II class at our local high school, It's not that the teacher was bad it's just difficult to give one on one attention to every student when there are 30 kids for only 55 minutes a day. So, instead of letting him flounder for another semester I decided to Google German tutors and up popped the WyzAnt website! I am so glad that I did that because my son really likes his tutor and in just 15 minutes of his first official lesson she clarified noun cases which he said was huge! He stated at we were on our way home way home "what a good feeling it was to finally understand the noun cases and how it will be so much easier to move on." I think that the time and money will be well worth it. My son is looking forward to a better understanding of German and ultimately a better grade! Out of the 4 tutors that responded in record time I think that we found the best fit for us! Thanks WyzAnt, I thought that finding a good German language tutor was going to be difficult but your site made it a breeze!

Awesome Tutor Search Site, Smooth Transaction & Flawless Process

The moment that I decided my son needed a tutor, I did a search online and was immediately directed to the WyzAnt site. I must say that as easy as it was finding the site, it was equally just as easy to find a tutor whose credentials matched my child's needs. The site allows you to sort through the various tutors utilizing an advanced search option, which is great for clients who already know exactly what kind and method of help they are looking for. The verification process was quick and easy and once my sessions with the tutor were confirmed, closing out each transaction required absolutely no hassle on my end of the spectrum, which is great when you are a very busy mother, wife and business owner. I receive an invoice and lesson evaluation through email shortly after the sessions end and the payments are automatically deducted from my account. What better way to do business than a paperless process, let alone the positive way in which this method of doing business contributes to the earth and all of the green efforts being made in this day and age. I must say that I have yet to encounter a company that provides a service requiring real people that in turn expose you to a process that is virtually flawless. I cannot even comment on areas of their service that require the use of customer support because the accuracy of this service has yet to fail me. WyzAnt has definitely dotted all of their "i's" and crossed every "t". Thank you WyzAnt and I would definitely recommend the use of this site for anyone looking for additional help in just about any area of their academics and beyond.

Great Tutor Search and Selection

This is the best tutor service I have found ever! WyzAnt.com provides an easy and transparent way for tutor search and selection. You see what you get. Some of the tutors have background checks to make you feel better to have them come to your home. The payment is easy and the price/hour rate is actually lower than the tutors I found via other approaches for the same quality. Most of the tutors are good and we have hired them for long term helps. As a parent who spends lot of time traveling out of town and out of the country, I really appreciate WyzAnt.com for providing such a wonderful services to make it possible for me to be able to help my kids on the way! It's highly recommended!

Excellent site to find a suitable tutor for students

Finding a tutor was much easier than I had envisioned with WyzAnt. I searched online for a tutor in math and spanish and WyzAnt popped up. I had no idea what a gem we had found. Our 16 year son struggled greatly last year in math and other subjects and we did not want a repeat this year. I submitted our requests with our ideal location and had responses within hours! We could read about each person's profile, their experience, rates and own personal statement regarding their qualifications to teach our son. Several agreed to meet with us that week at OUR chosen location, which is our local library. Additionally, after each session, we receive a note from the tutor informing us on what they discussed and what would be helpful for us to know. The tutors actually welcome an e-mail from the parent or student and are quite respondent. We are thrilled that our son is saying "I get it" with resulting higher scores on tests, quizzes and homework. Our son enjoys meeting his tutors locally and at the time that works with his sports and school schedule, as well as on the days that do not conflict with other events. He feels he connects well with his tutor too. I'd highly recommend obtaining a tutor through WyzAnt. This is a great all around solution for us and our son. We were able to hand pick our tutor and the price is very reasonable. We simply pay on line through paypal. Also, if you want to pay for a certain number of sessions ahead of time, they offer a nice discount, yet if you do not USE all your tutoring time, you are reimbursed 100% for all unused dollars. It's a well thought out system. A response from Customer service has been just as quick as the tutor - within hours! Both my husband and I have been shocked by the high quality service....not seen much these days, to be honest!

WOW! Great experience with our wonderful tutor!! :)

Wonderful experience! We couldn't be happier with our tutor's expertise, kindness and willingness to teach. She was cooperative and considerate about our meeting place. She was thoughtful enough to consider a quiet place with consideration to the least amount of distractions! She was concerned that the materials they were going over were consistent to what was needed. So happy with the experience and have already made recommendations to others about WyzAnt as well as with our tutor. Thank you so much for offering this service, it is very much appreciated.

Great Tutor!

WyzAnt has been a very user friendly site. After struggling to find a tutor elsewhere I came across WyzAnt. After creating an account, I was contacted by many tutors. I emailing with a few of them, and was able to find the tutor I had been looking for! In the past I had struggled with finding just the right person. No hassles! The billing is very straight forward and they have great discount packages. Finding a tutor through WyzAnt is making a very big goal, which I thought was unobtainable, a reality! Thank you WyzAnt!

Great tool for finding exactly what you are looking for

As a child I was placed in a preschool program that immersed me to the French language. As a direct result I have had an ease with languages as an adult and I knew before I ever had children I would look for a similar program for my own children. As my two children reached preschool age I began an exhaustive search for a native French speaker to play with them, read them stories, etc., and to generally expose them to the language as I had experienced. It took me two years of searching before I came across the WyzAnt site and within a week and a half we had our first session with our wonderful native French tutor. She was everything I had hoped to find and WyzAnt made the entire process so easy. Registering through the site, setting up tutoring sessions, paying for sessions, and even leaving reviews are so easy through WyzAnt. I highly recommend this website and will be a loyal customer from now on! Thank you!

Productive and efficient tutor service provision

I am taking a BioStatistics course on-line for the Master's in Health Care Administration. This is a six-week class, so the required information is tightly crammed and the studying goes in a very fast pace. To tell you the truth, when the class started I had no idea how difficult it could be. I just graduated from Bachelor's program with a 3.95 GPA, so when the second week of the class began, I realized that I am not so savvy in this subject. I never had a tutor before and the whole idea of getting one sounded kind of weird. After searching the great wide-web, I found the link to the WyzAnt services and began my research of the possible tutors. What I really liked about the WyzAnt, is an efficient customer service and that the tutors were located in many areas that were close to my house. This is my third week working with my tutor and I feel that the few hours that was spent, definitely paid off, since my grade is still 97% in the class. Thanks WyzAnt!!!

Good Tutors

I had a very good experience with Wyzant. I had two very helpful and capable tutors , Sonia B. and Peter L. Both were extremely knowledgeable in their subjects and capable of teaching.

Very good tutor search

It was very easy for me to locate a good tutor for my daughter. I did not know you existed, but I am glad you do. The description of all the tutors was very helpful with pictures and everything. Reading the description of all the tutors made it easy for me to determine who I would like to tutor my daughter. The payment method is also very convenient. Our first tutoring session with Kartik proved to be very beneficial to my daughter. He explains well and on her level. I would definitely use Kartik to tutor my daughter again. Thank you.

Very Efficient Process

In looking for tutoring help for freshmen courses in college, I located WyzAnt through Google. I found the web site easy to understand and user friendly. Once I put my credit card down as a deposit, I was able to speak to the tutors directly to understand how helpful they could be and their strengths . I have been very happy also with the detailed summary provided on the site to describe the various backgrounds and skills offered by the tutors. The ability to break down by location and major is excellent and very helpful and allows for a good way to pick a tutor through a preliminary assessment. I have been very happy with each of the tutors(three) so far as they have been able to get into the subject matter quickly and have been able to help prepare for the matter at hand. The payment system is very efficient and the two times I called customer service , I found them to be very friendly and helpful.

Highly Recommended Tutoring Search Site!

I work in a high school but when my son needed advanced math help I did not know where to turn. I found WyzAnt Tutoring on an internet search and I will admit, I was a bit wary. I had never heard of this site and in general am not one for trying unknown sites. After looking at the site I decided to try it and emailed a tutor in the subject area. By the end of the day at least 5 tutors in my area had emailed me. I selected a tutor, gave her a contact number and set up the first session the next day. Payment is so simple. I put it on my credit card through the WyzAnt site and WyzAnt keeps track of the balance remaining and paying the tutor. I get summaries of the tutoring session emailed to me after each session. It has only been 3 weeks but my son is already improving. By improving, I mean his math grade has jumped SIXTEEN PERCENT and he finally is starting to understand the work in class! I am so happy and satisfied. I highly recommend this site. The tutors are wonderful and the site makes finding and paying for the tutoring service easy.

Expert Tutors willing to Teach

After only spending a few minutes searching for a tutor, I found one close to where I live. After setting up a meeting with her, everything went smoothly from there. My tutor not only knew the subject calculus very well but also broke steps down to understand each point. Payment was super easy; once the session was over, the fee was automatically deducted from my account. After only two sessions I felt confident in taking my quiz, and soon I hope to do well on my next test. It's great to see good help at an affordable cost. Not only is the fee for each session low but I can buy credit and receive discount, making my payment per session less.

Great tutor

I am so pleased I found WyzAnt. It is easy to navigate and convenient. Kelvin, out tutor, contacted me right away and was able to meet with my daughter the following evening. He explained everything clearly, was patient, and very helpful to my daughter. He engaged her and encouraged her. We are looking forward to working with him for an extended period of time. I am so impressed with Kelvin and with the WyzAnt service. Mt daughter was in desperate need of support and we were able to find it within one day.

Great Tutor Search and Selection

There were a great selection of tutors within my area with the expertise I was looking for. I reviewed several tutors backgrounds and I contacted around four of them via e-mail. One of the four tutors I selected really stood out to me as far as her background. I really needed someone to help my 15 year old who has an IEP with better study habits, grammar,sentence structure, etc. Meredith of Baltimore is the tutor I choose and she has definitely backed up what was written down of her teaching experiences. Meredith listened to my concerns, listened to my daughter and then discussed the goals she would like to obtain. Our first week of tutoring was excellent. We just completed our second tutoring session and my daughter was very enthusiastic and more confident. Payment for the lessons are very easy. Payment is made via credit card on-line. I have and will recommend WyzAnt to others.
