So easy to use!

I really love how WyzAnt operates. I like being able to search through tutors and read their credentials and their location without having to sign up for anything or enter any personal information first. Having posted pictures of the tutors helped us identify the person we'll be meeting: I really like that feature, too. I also appreciate that we were able to email the tutor to get more information (e.g. where the tutoring would take place) before officially signing on. Our tutor responded the same day as our initial inquiry, and was able to begin tutoring within days! Being able to have billing information on file for automatic payment is very convenient, and thus far has been completely accurate and billed only after each tutoring session. The quality of the tutor has been terrific: he's been able to identify the gaps in knowledge that were keeping my niece from grasping more advanced concepts, and has explained math in a way that she understands! We are very pleased with WyzAnt!!

Helpful And Quick

So far I have had a good experience with the program. It was really easy to get started and once I found a tutor I was able to get started in a few days. I plan on using this site continuously until I finish school for any subject I need help with. The tutor I've been using seems very helpful and really knowledgeable on the subjects we have been covering. Although I do think the prices are a little steep I would like to see the prices drop by about a quarter of the price. This would make it much more affordable and I believe more people would use the site, I also think it would allow me to afford more sessions so I could get more one on one time.

Easy to use

My experience has been easy to use. The search was easy to narrow down what I was looking for and the payment is quick and painless. My tutor enters in a review of what we covered and I rate how the lesson was. WyzAnt pretty much takes care of the rest. Easy to use.

Excellent Tutor

We are so glad we came across WyzAnt to find a math tutor for our child. The website made it quick and easy to locate a tutor and more then enough qualified tutors responded to our request in a very timely manner. The tutor we selected is qualified, efficient, polite and always arrives on time. Our daughter's grades and confidence level improved immediately after meeting with the tutor only two times! Your website makes it quick and easy to arrange payment which is extremely helpful, thanks WyzAnt!

Great Website

I needed to find a tutor for my son and stumbled upon this website that made everything easier for us. Today is the first time that the tutor comes over to teach, he seemed to be very knowledgeable. I feel pretty confident. I also like the fact that the website pays the tutor so it makes it easier.

Find the Right Tutor FAST

As a student athlete and aspiring Geophysicist at the University of Texas finding time to study can be a challenge. When my grades started to slip, I became desperate for more personal attention and help. I decided to turn to the internet to help find a good tutor. The first site I visited had a myriad of tutors to choose from and I emailed about 5 of them. Never got a response- not even to say "Sorry, but I am too busy with other students and don't have time to help you." It was very frustrating and I began to lose hope about ever understanding the material enough to get a decent grade. Then I found WyzAnt! Not only did they have MORE available tutors, they also have a feature where you can check an option to have suitable tutors email you! Not only did I get a response within ONE DAY from the first couple of tutors I emailed, I got about 8 emails from other tutors who wanted to help me! Within two days I had scheduled a time and place to meet my tutor. Not only was he flexible with times, but he was also willing to drive all the way to campus to meet me. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and took the time to really make sure I understood the material. The method of payment is very simple too, type in your billing information and after each session your account will be charged- hassle free and worth every penny! Talk about amazing!

Thank you Brian!

Thank you WyzAnt for setting up this site, I had no idea where to start with finding my daughter a physics tutor. I have to admit I was a bit skeptical to start, but in desperation I went with your site. Brian was a god sent. My daughter came home with this magic in her eyes. Brian was able to make sense of it all to her. My daughter said "Brian made it so simple, I felt stupid." She is kicking butt in class now, and has changed her attitude towards physics. I really can not thank you enough for building confidence in my daughter.

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.
