Why Choose Curvebreakers?


Customized Curricula

The team at Curvebreakers does not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to education. Our tutors strive to enhance their students' unique strengths while simultaneously improving critical areas to maximize performance.

Adaptable Approach

Our student-focused approach allows us to adapt to their individual needs and foster an enjoyable environment for learning. Other companies are more rigid, prioritizing the program's structure over the client's success.

Data -Driven Decisions

Our diagnostic score analysis identifies patterns and trends in a student's practice test responses to help us understand why questions are missed and avoid covering material and questions your student already knows.

Expert Instruction

The team at Curvebreakers is composed of the highest quality instructors that have all scored in the 99th percentile on college entrance exams. The owner personally trains each tutor on our expert methodologies.
