Great Tutors

My tutor was great! He was able to break down the complex ideas to help me understand them.

They found a good match in a tutor

I needed a tutor in a subject, and they promptly matched me up with the tutor I needed.

Wonderful tutor

Our tutor was wonderful. She did an amazing job helping my daughter learn to love and appreciate writing and all things that go with it. My daughter now has a passion for writing. My child has autism and ADHD however, these were not an issue for the D’Shanda our tutor.

Mixed Review

I chose Varisty Tutors because I was hoping to have a better experience than I have had on other online tutoring platforms. One thing I really like about them is they found me a new tutor when I requested it. I do feel like I had to be extra clear about what I was looking for in a tutor to find the right match for me. My eventual match has been great! However, every single session we have together has had some kind of technical problem. Usually, our audio goes out and we have to refresh the page. Sometimes our screens freeze or one person can’t see the other person even if they can see both people’s faces. I have addressed the connectivity issues during sessions with the help desk numerous times. They suggested that it could be us, but I’m skeptical that the issue lies with our wifi and not with the platform. Finally, this platform has good features outside of 1-1 tutoring such as classes and on-demand help. But, I’ve also noticed I can only chat my tutor on the app and not on the desktop outside of sessions. My goal was always to use it for a test prep and then to cancel it because paying for 4 sessions is very expensive on a student budget. I felt frustrated when I had to call to cancel and then was pressured into keeping the subscription after I clearly stated why I no longer needed the service. I wish they had not been so pushy. Overall, my opinion of this platform is pretty mixed. I really like my tutor but that isn’t enough to keep me long-term given the high cost and the mediocre platform functionality.

Not as good as others

I feel like the tutoring for the NCLEX was very basic and did not dive as deep into the content that is needed. Other programs like NCLEX bootcamp have better rationals and you can answer far more questions for way less money. In order to pass the NCLEX you would need to buy another study program to go along with this tutoring.

!!!!!DO NOT EVEN!!!!! SAVE YOUR HEADACHE AND STRESS

***First, all you people studying for NBCOT (COTA/OTR) DO NOT COME HERE. Just stick with the NBCOT Study Pack and Therapy Ed material. Both of them are like at least half the price compared to this rip off scam of a company.*** I tried tutoring through here because of there high pass guarantee, but it’s just been a whole headache working with this company from day one. I specifically ask for a COTA tutor, they give me an OTR (COTA and OTR exam are two completely different tests and scope of practice). I told them about my specific scheduling needs, that I would have to communicate one week at a time due to my work schedule, they proceed to schedule all the wrong times and times AFTER my exam day. All the employees working for this company need to get their information straight, everyone says different answers. Very misleading and scam, one employee will say one thing can be done and then another one will say it cannot be done. (Was told that the hours for the group sessions CAN be used as hours towards the hours you paid for. But then was told later that the group sessions cannot be used towards paid hours. (One on one session hours only). I relied on that because my tutor was very unprofessional ( Missed one whole session, didn't message me until at least a day or 2 after the missed session, was asleep on call/not responsive when I asked questions in the session, doesn't say much in sessions, when I ask questions they don't respond, says one time to meet but then schedules differently, also there wifi connection blows. Keeping on hopping in and out of the call...just so annoying! This is more like Junior Varsity Tutors to me. My tutor was a very knowledgeable guy got a good bio/resume, but TEACH ME PLEASE THATS WHAT IM PAYING FOR!!!!! SEEMS LIKE THESE TUTORS GET PAID TO SIT ON A PHONE CALL AND WATCH YOU DO PRACTICE EXAMS! LIKE IF YOU'RE GOING TO DO A PRACTICE EXAM WITH ME WALK THROUGH EVERY QUESTION WITH ME! Also did I mention when I ask a question 90% tutor was on mute with no camera on. Very unprofessional yet again. (You all reading this prolly thinking, why haven’t I got a new tutor by then? Well when varsity tutors say 24/48hrs for new tutor reassignment, they actually mean at least 4-5 days. My exam was close within about 1-2 weeks at this point so there wasn’t much wiggle room to try and get another tutor in my opinion. Also when going through these practice exam questions myself, my text book I could follow along with/had the answers, some of the questions, TUTOR WAS INCORRECT AND I WAS RIGHT ORIGINALLY. Was on the phone with an employee and then a manager for a total of 1 hour and 13 minutes...30-40 minutes of that phone call was WAITING ON HOLD! After that phone call they are attempting to reasign a new tutor for me meanwhile my exam is in 5 days at the time I spoke to them. This whole experience made me so stressed never doing this and never recommending them to nobody!

Contract was not continued after 1 year, despite having good feedback from students. Asked for information why and was stonewalled. Messaged the CEO on LinkedIn and no reply.

I was thoroughly impressed with Mr

I was thoroughly impressed with Mr. Golding’s patience and performance working with the twins. The first session was to find out what level the girls were working on. I believe that he was able to assess their abilities and how to approach them during their next session.
