Elite Tutoring

At Riseman Education, we work with students on a one-to-one basis in your home and customize every lesson. Working with students in a familiar learning environment reduces stress and saves valuable after-school travel time.

We tutor students from kindergarten through twelfth grade in a wide range of subjects: Mathematics, Writing, Reading Comprehension, Earth Science, Biology, Physics, Chemistry, Social Studies, French, Spanish, and Latin.

Our experienced consultants are active educators at private and public schools. We help students succeed at all levels, ranging from remedial classes to International Baccalaureate, Advanced Placement, and Honors courses. In addition, we have learning specialists with extensive experience working with special needs students.

We work with students and parents on every step of the college admissions process and prepare students for standardized tests, including the SAT and ACT. We also help families on admissions into private secondary schools and work with students to perform well on the ISEE, SSAT, and TACHS. Our admissions programs have successfully placed students into elite high school, colleges, and universities across the world.
