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.
A Great Tool to Get Help for Your Kids
It's terrific to have a place to go where tutors and parents can meet up in an environment where WyzAnt has done the background work, and you can communicate with prospective tutors to find the right match for your child's needs. For me, finding someone qualified was only step one. WyzAnt provides a means to search for an individual who is a good match for your child's personal style and learning needs, as well as the tutor's "fit" with your child. WyzAnt provides a forum where you can get information you need about the tutor and then communicate personally with the tutor for follow up. I like that there is no obligation and that WyzAnt is there if you need them. I also find the fact that payment is made easy and automatic to be a plus, and the opportunity for discounts means I can afford to provide my child the full help he needs. Communication has been good, and I like the follow up after each session. Every prospective tutor I talked to before determining the right one for our family was open and eager to know about my child's needs. I got the feeling that they want to help and give your child the boost they may need. WyzAnt serves as a conduit worth exploring, and I will use them again if I need a tutor.
