Flexible GMAT tutoring that truly fits your life
Picture this: your calendar is tight, your goals are clear, and your study plan fits around your life, not the other way around. That is the backbone of flexible tutoring.
Pick times that work for you
- After work sessions: Log in at 7:30 p.m. for targeted Quant drills and a quick timing review.
- Weekend intensives: Use Saturday mornings for a two-hour Data Insights block and a Verbal tune-up.
- Early morning sprints: Meet at 6:45 a.m. for 60 minutes of DS logic before your day starts.
- Lunch break reviews: Short 30 to 45 minute error log check-ins.
- Time zone support: If you are in London, Dubai, or New York, there are windows that match your clock. Rescheduling is easy with advance notice.
Private tutor or small group class
- Private tutoring: Faster feedback, fully custom plan, perfect for tight deadlines or big score jumps.
- Small group class (max 6): Steady pace, peer learning, built-in accountability, and lower cost per hour.
- Smart switch: Many students use group lessons to build core skills, then add 2 to 4 private sessions for fine-tuning in the last two weeks.

A custom plan built around your target score
Week 1 is simple and focused:
- Day 1 to 2: Quick diagnostic, goal setting, calendar check.
- Day 3: Plan rollout with weekly accuracy and timing targets.
- Day 4 to 7: First drills in your weakest area with short, timed sets.
Every 1 to 2 weeks, you review progress, tighten timing, and refine guessing and pacing. Your plan updates as your scores shift.
Master every GMAT Focus section
- Quantitative Reasoning: Core arithmetic, algebra, and word problems first, then rate-work, number properties, and inequality traps. Example: translate wordy ratio setups into clean equations before plugging numbers.
- Verbal: Reading, logic, and grammar patterns that drive meaning. Example: flag extreme words in answer choices, then check for true scope and tone.
- Data Insights: Charts, tables, and multi-part reasoning. Example: build a quick checklist for chart reads, compare the right columns, and skip noise.
The aim is not just accuracy, but speed with control. You learn which steps matter and which steps waste time.
Practice tests, timed sets, and feedback that sticks
Your workflow becomes a cycle:
- Learn: Short lesson, one new tactic.
- Practice: Timed sets that match your level.
- Review: Error log, pattern spotting, and fixes.
- Retest: Hit the same weakness again in a fresh set.
Feedback turns into revised habits. That is how scores rise, one cycle at a time.

How flexible scheduling works from sign-up to test day
Getting started should be quick. Here is how the process works.
- Quick consult: Share goals, timeline, and last score or mock.
- Level check: Short diagnostic to target weak areas first.
- Tutor match: Based on your schedule window and needs.
- Schedule setup: Plan 2 to 12 weeks with specific blocks.
You also get a tech checklist: stable internet, a quiet space, and a note-taking setup that you can keep consistent across sessions.
From first call to your study calendar in days
- Day 1: Consult and goals.
- Day 2: Diagnostic and placement.
- Day 3: Tutor match and calendar approval.
- Days 4 to 14: Your first two weeks of lessons with homework and timed sets.
Support continues until test day. You will always know your next step.
Make-ups and pacing for busy weeks
Life happens. To keep momentum:
- Request changes early when possible.
- Use shorter review sessions on packed days.
- Stack problem sets on lighter days.
- Keep error logs current, even if you cannot do a full set.
Short, steady practice beats long gaps every time.
Time zone friendly and fully online
Students join live classes from many regions, so there are sensible windows for early morning or late night. If you study late, keep a glass of water nearby, dim other screens, and use a short warm-up set to get your brain in gear. For early birds, front-load the hardest set first, then finish with a quick review.
For a sense of how flexible scheduling can support score gains, you might find this practical take on flexible scheduling and learning helpful, even though it is aimed at another exam.
Pricing, packages, and how to start today
You should not have to guess what plan fits your goals and budget. Here is a simple way to choose.
- Private hourly blocks: Best for tight timelines, custom needs, or bigger jumps.
- Small group course schedules: Best for steady structure, peer learning, and savings.
- Blended plan: Use a group class for core skills, then 2 to 4 private sessions near test day.
A quick consult is the fastest way to map your target score to a plan. You can also explore online private tutoring options and classes through this overview of Online Private Tutoring for Exam Success.
Private vs. group: find your best value
- Choose private if you have 4 to 6 weeks, need 100+ points on the old scale equivalent, or want a fully custom plan.
- Choose group if you want structure, a steady pace, and lower cost per hour.
- Choose blended if you like group for the base and want a private push at the end.
Book a consult and get your plan
Bring three things:
- Your target schools and date range.
- Your last practice test or current estimated level.
- Your calendar windows for the next month.
We will turn that into a plan and schedule your first two weeks. You show up, we handle the rest.
