What Our Students & Parents Say
Based on 200+ 5-star Google reviews from families across North America
“Words cannot express how grateful I am to have Peter as my IB Chemistry tutor. Peter brought my IB Chemistry mark from a 5 to a 7 over the course of these two years. His humorous and lighthearted attitude makes classes much more engaging.”
“I've been working with Aria for IB Math for the past six months and he has massively improved my experience with math and my understanding of complex concepts. He is incredibly knowledgeable providing very thorough explanations.”
“Saloni was a fabulous mentor for our daughter. She made physics fun and interesting, which helped our daughter score 99% in her grade 11 physics. Keep up the great work!”
“We urgently needed Calculus tutoring for my son, and they acted very quickly, introducing us to an excellent tutor who specialized in Calculus tutoring. The quality of the math tutoring we received was outstanding.”
“I've had a fantastic experience as a parent working with HYC. The caliber of the tutors is amazing and the responsiveness of the company is wonderful. My children are really engaged with their subjects and keen to learn.”
“We've been using Hack Your Course since IB Year 1 for Math, Chemistry, and Physics, and continued into Year 2 because of the great results. The tutors are professional, organized, and understand the IB curriculum well.”
“As an IB student going into exams soon, I want to give my biggest thanks to my tutor Aria for helping me feel the most ready and confident in myself for my Math AA HL exams. After almost 2 years of being his student, I can confidently say that he is super patient.”
“HYC was amazing and totally saved our senior's final year of IB. She was reluctant to even get a tutor, but HYC hooked her up with one that was a great match for her personality, and helped her feel WAAAAAAAAY more confident with the material.”
“Peter has been an amazing tutor for IB Chemistry HL. Without him, I would have greatly struggled with the course. With his help in chemistry, I have been able to get acceptance into UBC Sciences as well as U of T Sciences.”
“Sophia, who tutored me in biology throughout my school year, helped me tremendously. She didn't just teach the material with in-depth explanations; she made sure I understood the concepts and knew how to apply them. She's been a highly skilled IB biology tutor.”
“Over the past year I worked with a physics tutor named Arjoon. He was amazing, with his help I was able to learn so much. Having just finished my final IB physics exam I can confidently say that I would not have been able to obtain the result I have without him.”
“I want to start off this review with saying thank you for everything Peter. He tutored me for 3 years, starting from grade 11 chemistry to finishing general chemistry in my first year of university. Peter was always attentive, willing to push me as a student.”
“Without question Hack Your Course is the best tutor service company we have ever found. The quality of the teachers is of the best. The company is very fast to respond to our requests.”
“I highly recommend the Hack Your Course AP & IB Tutoring Service. They are super professional and very responsive. They have a great network of tutors and take great interest in matching tutors to specific challenges. The feedback to parents is superb.”
“We are incredibly grateful to Arjoon and Hack Your Course for the outstanding support they provided our daughter in her IB Math class. Not only did her grades improve, but she also developed a genuine love for math thanks to Arjoon's exceptional teaching.”
“HYC has worked very well for our family. Saloni has been an exceptional tutor. She has built a great relationship with my children but is firm with them and really wants to see them do well.”
“We have been with this institute for two years now, and we are thrilled with the level of care we get from the tutors and the staff. They genuinely care and our sons' scores have increased significantly in their IB math, chemistry and physics courses.”
“My son went from struggling in IB Math and Physics HL to a projected 7 in both subjects with consistent tutoring twice a week. He really enjoys his sessions!”
