Vetting
How we hire tutors.
We don’t list our tutors publicly — partly because the roster is small, partly because what matters is the process they passed before they ever met a student. You meet your matched tutor at the start of your free trial.
Score floor.
Verified 1500+ on the digital SAT. No exceptions, including for the founders.
Currently enrolled.
Active undergraduates at Princeton, Harvard, Yale, MIT, Stanford, Columbia, or peer schools. Re-verified each semester.
Teaching audition.
Thirty-minute mock session with a founder, walking through a real student case.
Trial cohort.
Approved tutors take on two trial students with founder shadowing on the first session. Honest feedback decides whether they stay.
