Varsity Tutors Reviews in June 2026: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Good teaching.

It was a very good class with great information and a good tutor, he gave us practice test and feedback on all the answers.

Moved my daughter from failing to an A!

My daughter is taking a dual credit college Chemistry class in high school. Her first test grade was so bad that I sought help for her immediately. She had her second exam today and scored a 95! I am very impressed with the level of help and care from her tutor who not only tutored last night but still worked with her on some last minute practice problems on the way to school this morning!

Beware

The initial interview with their rep went great, but I was not happy with my daughter’s tutor. He came across as a slob and we saw him smoking a blunt when he thought the camera was off.

Thank you!

Mrs. Iqbal has done a wonderful job! My son has really improved in reading and grateful for her help!

Worked with me to find a solution

The tutor was great. I had some concerns with the company but, ultimately, felt like Varsity Tutors treated me fairly and worked with me to find a solution. That counts for a lot in my books.

It is also and option for tutors to “turn off” messages, leaving my daughter unable to respond to rescheduled sessions. The inconsistency and lack of reliability with the services provided is shocking and the monthly fee being paid does not in any way provide the kind of support needed. In addition, for each cancellation the fees are still charged but the session carries ...

My daughter’s tutor is wonderful

My daughter’s tutor is wonderful. Her name is Lisa Crawford. She is patient and works through problem sets while explaining what she is doing. Classmates ask my daughter to explain the homework after her sessions. In addition to being a great teacher, she has also been a pleasure to coordinate with when scheduling. Life gets hectic and she is understanding and accommodating.

Our daughter is in 11th grade and precalculus has been especially challenging. The Varsity Tutor program got us set up with an amazing tutor that has not only just tutored our child but worked with her based on her specific learning style. She went from borderline failing to now on the cusp of having a B!!
