Why a Boutique Instead of a Big Box?

Call and talk to phone bank personnel who A) are not the actual tutor and B) are paid a commission on whatever they sell you. They will always suggest purely private tutoring since they make 400%-700% more that way. These are adverse incentives.
Call and talk to full time professionals who craft over 1,500 custom tutoring plans a year, including the two company founders.
You purchase tutoring, paying in full, not even knowing which tutor you’ll be assigned or what dates the tutor has available.
Create a custom-designed plan appropriate for your specific college and score goals, placing your student with the style of tutoring and the tutor who is the best fit for your student.
Your student is placed onto a “New Students” dashboard, to be claimed by one of the tutors at the agency. The “matching” process that is touted usually doesn’t occur. Tutors click-click and claim students geographically convenient to them.
Build your entire calendar and plan with your tutor on the dates of your choice.
Your tutor contacts you and tries to find a schedule of dates and times. This tutor is usually paid 12-19% of what you are paying the company.

Only then do you complete payment for the tutoring, which, ironically, costs less per hour than the college-age tutors at the big-box agencies. Feel good about hiring experienced, full-time professionals using a custom-built, annually revised SAT/ACT curriculum, still take the test every year, and know how to raise your child’s scores!
