Rip off artists. We wanted a 6 week 2x's per week program for my daughter. They said they only offer in monthly or 4 week programs for that many sessions so they said we would have to pay for 8 sessions over 4 weeks and then alter and add 4 more at the end of that 8 in order to get to our 12 we wanted. After doing what they said and being confirmed that our 8 session was now a 12 session program, they instead added 12 more sessions for $965.13 instead of charging us the $264.52 or 66.13 per hour per session for extra sessions. They have now charged us $1494.13 instead of the $793.52 they should have charged. They refuse to refund the money and are trying to stick us with sessions we can't possibly use since my daughter takes her SAT next week. These folks are out of control and lied about how it works. All they needed to say was just ask for extra sessions for our daughter one at a time and we would have been charged the correct amount. Instead they tell you to alter your plan, which is what you think you are doing, but really you are ADDING a new plan, not altering your existing plan. What a scam

This is cheaper than Princeton and Kaplan for a reason people! Their cancellation policy is strict, you won't get your money back even if you don't use your credit hours. Tutor pairing takes forever the materials provided is not updated (I took the GMAT tutoring). They are not transparent about all their packages, and you would end up paying a lot more for what you are getting. It is difficult to cancel, I had to dig around and hen was given a phone number to call to cancel. What happens to one-click cancellation button? There is also no notification about the renewal of your membership so you will get charge $600 a month if you forget about it.

I dont need their services so I blocked them. However, they still keep leaving me voicemail 8 times per day and idk how to get it to stop after blocking and reporting the number. It's annoying.

Absolute waste of money. After convincing me over the phone that all of their tutors were vetted and experienced and my son would be placed with someone who is skilled in working with children with adhd. Instead I was paired with someone who had never tutored before, sent us multiple messages that were intended for someone else because she struggled with technology and she never showed up for any of our sessions. When I called to cancel because of the experience, they offered me 'free' sessions to give them another chance. I did and I will say the second tutor was much better but after a couple of months I was looking around in the app and noticed that it said I only had 4 sessions. I thought this was in error because I had been paying for 4 sessions a month for 3 months. I called to report the mistake and then and only then did they inform me that the sessions are prepaid and expire at the end of every month. Never, even when I called to cancel previously had anyone mentioned this to me. Not to mention, those 'free' session were just refunds for the sessions the awful first tutor had missed. I asked to have my sessions refunded as this was their error and they said no. I told them fine, refund the payment you just processed and cancel my account, no response. This company is a scam. I paid $1,000 for like 9 tutoring sessions. Do not waste your time or money.

Fabiah is very good and very patient with my daughters. She looks forward to having her classes with her. She has become very confident with her math skills in school. The carryover is evident with her math grades.

We received a grant for specialized reading instruction and had a difficult time scheduling a quality tutor. Come to find out varsity tutors claims my prepaid hours are now expired! They also exaggerated on the credentials of their services. I could never find a tutor with the experience they listed and had to go a different route. Now they have our money and we have no way to get any services. Buyers…. parents BEWARE, look elsewhere for tutoring or overpay and regret it.

I was paying for them even after I had cancelled and they wouldn’t refund me even though it was a fault on them. The tutoring also was unhelpful and tutors were rude. Would not recommend them to anyone.

They pair you with great tutors who really care about what you learn and how well you do. It’s takes usually 24 hours to get matched with the right teachers. They live session feature works amazing never any issues!
