One-on-one/private tutoring FAQ

Does GregMAT+ offer one-on-one tutoring?

Yes, with

• Greg: Book a session with Greg (340, 6.0) to get advice on improving your GRE score. Sessions usually involve diagnosing strengths and weaknesses and forming a "big picture" plan one can use moving forward.
• Leaderboard: Book a session with Leaderboard (170 Quant) to get advice on improving your GRE Quant score.

Blunt and to-the-point, his sessions focus on quickly working out what's preventing the student from getting the score they want and provide a plan for them to get where they need to be.

Ganesh is an up-and-coming tutor in the GRE world who possesses an intimate knowledge of the Greg Mat+ strategic repertoire. If you're struggling with certain Greg Mat strategies, Ganesh is your guy.
• Clare: Clare took the GRE several times and massively improved her score to a 331. She also has significant experience with tutoring from the other side, so she has a natural empathy for students struggling with the GRE. If you're looking for advice on improving your score, especially if you're stuck and have hit a wall, or with constructing a study plan with Clare's insights in mind, book a session with her.

With a background in engineering and love for numbers, he’s spent years turning tough problems into simple strategies. His sessions are low-pressure, practical, and built around how you learn best perfect for students who want to build real confidence and finally feel in control of Quant.

• Connor: Connor took the GRE multiple times, learning more about himself than the test each time. After earning a 169Q, he brings a relentless mindset and a toolkit of strategies to help you raise your score and maybe even enjoy a word problem or two.

• Alina: Alina (168 Verbal, 164 Quant) began her GRE journey over a decade after undergrad, relearning not just content but how to study effectively. As an experienced educator and neurodivergent learner herself, she understands that improvement comes from building strategies that work with your brain—not against it.

• Kavi: Kavi scored 166 in Verbal (96th percentile) on her first GRE attempt and knows that strong scores come from more than just memorizing words. She believes in true hand-holding: whether you book a single class or work with her for weeks, she offers steady, ongoing support so you never feel you’re doing it alone. Kavi loves diagnosing each student’s unique hurdles—whether you’re just starting or already advanced—and finds it deeply satisfying to watch that steady progress click into place. Her sessions focus on hard but rewarding techniques and clear, strategy-driven study paths that keep you moving toward your target score. She primarily tutors Verbal and can provide only very limited Quant help.
• Dylan: Dylan scored a 336 (170Q, 166V) after taking the GRE multiple times, improving his Quant by 14 points through careful categorization of his mistakes. Having tested a wide range of strategies himself, he knows what actually moves the needle on both sections. On Verbal, he can help you sharpen your reading, reasoning, and approach to the trickier question types. Book a session with Dylan if you need help diagnosing weaknesses and building a plan to lift your score on Quant, Verbal, or both.

How much does it cost?

$50/hour. There are also a few half-hour sessions for $30 (limited and not offered by every tutor).

How can I book a one-on-one tutoring session?

Go to https://www.gregmat.com/tutoring , choose a date where there are slots (indicated by the green dot) and book it.

Once the payment is complete, you'll see a confirmation. After that, the tutor will email you to proceed further.

If you have not received an email after a long time or you have any other issues or questions, please get in touch with us.

Can I or the tutor add notes to the session?

Yes - and these notes are synced to your account. Simply go to the session on the tutoring page. The tutor will be able to add their own notes as well in the Tutor's Notes section (which you cannot edit). They'll also be able to see your notes.

What tips should one follow for a one-on-one tutoring session?

• Please have a list of questions and/or problems you’ve already attempted and/or completed ready to discuss. Tutoring sessions that are entirely planned by the tutor do not go very well. The tutor might be covering topics you already know or topics that you don’t necessarily need. In addition, when you’ve already attempted the problems, you can readily explain your thought process. This makes it easier to diagnose where you went wrong.
• If you haven't already, please complete the GRE Foundation quizzes (links here).
• If you’ve already taken the GRE and approximately 15 days have elapsed, please have your diagnostic report (from the ETS website) ready to go. This is a document that outlines your specific performance on the test. In essence, it highlights your strengths and weaknesses.
• It’s okay to treat the lesson like a therapy session. I’m obviously not a therapist and don’t purport to be, but it’s good sometimes to let our emotions about the test out. It’s cathartic.
• You don’t have to show your face or anything like that during the meeting. But a good microphone or quiet setting is appreciated.

How do I reschedule my session?

Email the tutor directly - this should be in your booking email. Or contact us if you can't find their email.

I'd like to provide feedback on my tutoring session (or I have a complaint)

Please contact support@gregmat.com.

I would like to become a tutor for GregMAT. What should I do?

Email support@gregmat.com with a brief blurb on why you want to be a tutor and the credentials you have (eg your GRE score), and your score report listing the scores you got from all official tests. We're currently full, so we'll put you in a pool for future consideration. There is no ETA on when slots will reopen, though when they do, we will consider the ones already in the tutor pool first.

A minimum combined score of 325, or a minimum of 168 in quant or verbal, is expected from all applicants (more the better). This score must have been obtained from an official GRE test (so practice tests, no matter the source, do not count). Superscores (taking the best quant and verbal score from different attempts) cannot be used to meet the combined score requirement either. Additional notes:

• Tutors must also be willing to follow the general house rules.
• We have a preference for tutors that have already used our platform as a student. The reason is that students often have queries about specific strategies taught on GregMAT (eg the math strategy, used in verbal), and it's easier for tutors if they already have experience using them.
• While prior experience as a tutor is nice to have, this is by no means required.
• Tutors below a 162Q or a 160V will be disadvantaged when we consider your application. The reason is that such candidates will not be allowed to cover both quant and verbal (which we call as generalists) and will only be able to tutor the section with their higher score (which we call as specialists). Our experience is that specialists, while useful, lack the versatileness that generalists can provide for students.
