Academic Tutoring

Teaching and Learning Excellence

Ivy Bound has been an education leader since 2001.  Ivy Bound's tutors have helped thousands of students to higher school grades and better ACT, SAT, SSAT, and AP test scores. Our expertise has expanded to include the needs of more students—from Kindergarten through grad school—who are looking for success in their classes rather than preparing for standardized tests.

 

Our goal is to make students independent learners. We help students who are falling behind to get back on track, and we help students who are pushing ahead to step beyond the scope of their classes. Whatever the situation is, we are focused on guiding all our students to be inquisitive and thoughtful in their learning, and ultimately to excel in their courses. While each of our tutors has their own methods, we meet the demands of classroom teachers and professors by reviewing old tests and formatting lessons around their particular expectations and requirements.

  • Flexibility

    Academic tutoring is structured around your wants and needs. Student’s can set up weekly appointments or request help studying for a big test. We can also help with research papers and special projects, or guide some foundational background knowledge ahead of a class on an unfamiliar topic.

  • Experience

    Some of our tutors have been working in education for 20+ years. Others are remarkable undergrad and grad students. What they all share in common is a passion for teaching and a record of excellence. Whether you prefer to work with someone who has taught dozens of students, or someone who aced your class just a few years ago, you can rest assured that Ivy Bound will match you with an academic tutor who has the qualifications and experience necessary to help you succeed.

  • Options

    Ivy Bound tutors have studied and worked across fields varying from philosophy and law to engineering and medicine. Whatever class is giving you trouble, chances are a member of our team has been through the same challenges. We pride ourselves on offering not just a wide variety of tutors, but tutors spanning a myriad of interests and topics.

“I am very happy to report that my son not only enjoyed the Speedy Reading class and the way it was taught by the instructor, he also stated that it was fun. Since December his grades have rocketed up to almost all straight “A’s” and two “B’s”. He couldn’t be happier as his confidence has grown and he is no longer struggling in school or with his homework. He is getting his work done in half the time and all of his teachers have taken note of his improvements and tell him what a great job he is doing.

This class has completely changed his outlook on school only for the better and he is now a much happier child and for that we are sincerely grateful to Ivy Bound. Thank you all for offering such a great class and we will definitely be using you again in the future for his ACT and SAT testing.”
