Education is not one-size-fits-all. As New York’s leader in subject help and test preparation, known for the best hires, knowledgeable service, and reasonable pricing, we are proud to offer a highly personalized service. Whatever the student’s needs, we’ve been there, and we can share our expertise with you. Our goal is to help each student find joy in learning. IVY’s mission is to help students struggling with difficult subjects by connecting them to tutors who are so passionate about their fields that it’s contagious. Our Ivy League and top tier university tutors connect with students on a level that adults and parents are not always able to access. We match students with tutors by weighing personality, skill level, and many other factors, including hobbies and interests. History Established in 2003. In 2003, I started a company that helped change the landscape of tutoring and test preparation in New York City. I was 20 years old at the time and a student at Columbia University (after having graduated from Bronx Science). My vision was to build a network of Ivy League students and graduates who would act as tutors and mentors for school-aged kids through the 12th grade. I am proud to say that this vision is now a reality!
Lisa grew up in New York City, attending specialized public schools PS 87, Delta (MS 54) and Bronx Science, and then went on to get her BA at Columbia University. While in High School, Lisa tutored younger students with great success. When she no longer had time to tutor in college, Lisa kept receiving calls from parents looking for the same kind of care and attention she had shown to her students. She instantly understood that there was a gap in the NYC market for a reliable tutoring service. So began Ivy Tutors Network in 2003. While running her education company, Lisa has also had a 13-year corporate career in consumer products, spending 3 of those years in a C-level role before returning to IVY to pursue her mission to make personalized education more accessible.
