Why Us 

Our Tutors:
We understand that there are a variety of other tutoring options available to you, but we believe that ROPES offers a unique service.  ROPES strives to provide an unparalleled experience for you and your student while emphasizing a role in giving back to the community. We hire only the best, experienced tutors: our tutors not only have a strong grasp of the material, but more importantly, have a passion for teaching. Our tutors come from the nation's top universities and are typically pursuing a graduate or undergraduate degree in the subject they are tutoring in. 
 
Our Approach:
Our approach to tutoring is drastically different from other tutoring organizations. We believe that a thorough understanding of the subject material is only the basic requirement for a tutor. A successful tutor must also be able to understand a student’s particular learning habit, and be able to tailor his/her teaching curriculum to match the needs of the student. 

In addition, our tutors develop a unique relationship that extends beyond the typical teacher-student relationship. Students view tutors as trusted mentors and friends. They therefore are able to interact with their tutor in a low stress, trusting environment, which we believe is essential in promoting a stronger education. 
 
Our Organization:
ROPES was developed by students and teachers for students. As a non-profit organization, our mission is to help students achieve their full potential while providing self-rewarding experiences for our tutors. Furthermore, we are committed to giving back to the community by granting merit-based scholarships to deserving graduating high school seniors.
