The tutoring space has been around for a long time, but the advancements of HeyTutor make finding the right match between student and tutor easier than ever before. Students across the country are touting the help they received from tutors as making the difference in their grades.

In one case, a parent came to us not because their student was struggling, but instead due to the fact that they had completely disengaged from lessons. Let’s call them Jenna and mom. Jenna was previously a great student in class, constantly raising her hand and answering questions, but she suddenly stopped participating. Her teacher brought this up to mom, but she did not know what had prompted the change. When she asked what was going on, Jenna said, “I know all of the answers, but my teacher never calls on me. I’m sick of my arm getting tired. My muscles are going to be huge in one arm because I’ve got it up in the air all day.”

The sad thing in a classroom setting is that gifted learners like Jenna are held back, not intentionally, but by the speed of the class. Even though she would like to zoom ahead of her peers, Jenna can only move forward when the rest of the class sufficiently understands. She might know all the answers and want to prove it, but she can only answer a couple before the teacher lets other students have their own chance to shine. Jenna was a perfect candidate for tutoring, as she was clearly craving one-on-one attention to keep her engaged in topics. Instead of feeling like the rest of class is a burden, Jenna was able to move at a pace that best suited her ability. She went on to skip the next level of math that her school offered, pursuing the most difficult stuff, which was also what she found stimulating as a student. She was able to use the extra math in high school to place out of lower level math in college, giving her the option to graduate early. Instead, she stayed the full time and used the extra flexibility to add a minor for fun in a field she is interested in.

Ultimately, the most important part of the process in finding a tutor is the initial matching process. In most cases, the tutors are going to come out around equal when it comes to knowledge. Some might be better than others in certain areas, but, for the most part, you are going to get the same lessons from tutor to tutor. The difference comes in the way that lessons are presented, with some tutors just understanding how to communicate concepts better to students than their better educated counterparts. An experienced tutor like one of ours has seen it all before with students, so they can present concepts better to help your students grasp them faster.

When you sign up with HeyTutor, you will first take a little time to build out your personal profile before we do any matching. We want to learn anything about you that can help make your learning an enjoyable, valuable experience. Instead of wasting time auditioning tutors, we hope to make a better, more educated guess on the right match the first time. But that does not mean that you are locked in with someone that you will not like. In addition to our matching system, we have money-back that make the initial investment worth every penny. In the case that you do not like the first tutor we match for you, you will be credited back for the session and we will work with you to try finding someone for you again. If the second match is also not a fit, we will give you a full refund.

In the past, you probably did a lot of work before hiring a tutor. First, you had to go through all of the options, which meant hunting down all of the disparate potential tutors on your own. You might have been able to use your school’s guidance counselor or a teacher as someone that could vouch for a few and provide options, but most of those choices come with some level of bias, as the teachers mostly suggest their friends.

With our service, we have done all of the vetting in advance. HeyTutor only hires from the best of the best, as our reputation is inextricably linked with the tutors we provide. We only want to work with the top tutors in any given area because they reflect best on the company. That means that every tutor will come with at least a bachelor’s degree and a few years of experience. Some companies work with green tutors, but our tutors come with some battle scars, so they can prepare you for the difficult road ahead and prevent you from falling victim to the usual pitfalls that students face. As much as you are unique, your issues are just like your peers, which allows our experienced tutors to help you through when times get tough.

Just because we are vetting the tutors in advance does not mean that you can’t do your own follow-ups. We offer easy background checks for an additional $9 and you can still do as much interviewing as you need to before the first session is set. You probably want to check with other parents that have used the tutor before and references are provided upon request. We want to make the process as easy as possible, so we go deep down the rabbit hole for you, but we also know that you want to be sure that your money is going to good use.

In the past, the easiest tutoring matching services were only found in major metropolitan areas where the network of tutors was massive, but we can find you a tutor anywhere in the country. We are constantly adding new tutors to our network and we are making relationships all around to make sure that you are able to get the same great tutoring in Henderson, NV that you would find in Las Vegas, NV, Los Angeles, New York, or anywhere else.

Affordability is key and you are going to find plenty of options that can fit your needs. Sessions are all pre-paid in the form of tutoring packages, divided into tiers based on initial commitment. Most students choose the maximum 30 hour package, but you can also get a 10 or 20 hour package depending on your needs. At the 30 hour rate, you get to lock in the lowest rate possible, which leaves scheduling as the only worry. After you buy a package, you can choose any type of tutoring to get the job done, switching subjects in the middle as much as you need.

HeyTutor recently made headlines by appearing on the hit TV show Impractical Jokers on TruTV. The reality show needed over 20 qualified tutors of Microsoft Office in the New York area in just a three day turnaround. This would have been impossible to do on their own. With the help of our massive network of tutors and relationships in the industry, we were able to fulfill their needs.

The stories are coming in day after day about students that have seen great results with the help of our tutoring. The most rewarding are those that have been to tutors in the past and say that they have never loved learning as much as they have with us.
