Highly personalized 1-on-1 tutoring that students love.

Get matched with a mentor and make improvements that actually matter.

It's more than just a terrific pun—no size fits all is something we really believe. No two students are alike, so why should their tutor or their curriculum be? We provide customized, one-on-one learning experiences to students that are engaging, personal, and even fun.

Tutoring is more than just algorithms.

Working with tutors from Higher Ground means:

Mentorship. Mentors make better tutors, and better tutors make better students. Our tutors are nothing short of all-stars.
Customization. Every program that we create is uniquely tailored to the specific needs and personality of each individual student.
A Fair Price. Even our prices can be customized. We believe that education should be available to everyone, regardless of ability to pay.
Results. Individual attention means exceptional improvement – even for the highest performing students.

trust Higher Ground.

"After his sessions, he wrote the SAT twice more, improving dramatically each time and his second score was a 1590. He loved the sessions as they worked on so much more than just the actual content - talking and learning about confidence in exam technique and about manifesting a good outcome. This had a wonderful impact on his approach to exams in general. I would recommend Higher Ground without reservation. Thanks again for a superb experience!!"

-Elise Malherbe, parent
"We initially worked with HGL to help my son with his SAT test prep. Beyond just teaching my son how to improve, Eric was a great mentor who legitimately cared about my son’s interests and activities. Through this bond, Eric was able to push my son to invest in test prep and ultimately achieve a score good enough for any elite university."

-Parent of Stanford ‘25 & ‘26
"I came to Higher Ground being a high school senior who was over the scene and ready to graduate. My first impression was this place is awesome, so artsy, you can tell they really help kids develop their talents. The teachers were awesome, I signed up for honors physics thinking there was no way I would pass but I finished out with an A! I would definitely recommend Higher Ground, they are the reason I graduated."

-Abigail Evans, student
"As an independent college advisor, HGL remains my number one choice for SAT prep. HGL tutors really understand the pressures our international students face, are flexible & accommodating with different time zones, and have a good rapport with our students. I have complete faith in their tutorage and will continue to recommend them as our preferred SAT prep services."
