Wallace Tutors’ individualized college application advising is characterized by personalization, mentorship, and well established industry insight. There's no denying that applying to college is more intense and competitive than ever, but we endeavor to alleviate stress for your child and your family throughout every phase of the process — from high school course selection and resume building to application essay writing and organization. A successful admissions approach requires first-person storytelling in which authenticity, integrity, and cohesion are key ingredients. We tailor our strategic approaches to each college and university, ensuring that the student’s specific passion and unique talents clearly resonate through every facet of the application. Our advisors help your student show colleges not only who they are, but why their education is undeniably important. Wallace Tutors’ advisory team sees consistently excellent results, helping students gain recent admission to an array of top schools including Princeton, Yale, Chicago, Columbia, UC-Berkeley, Brown, NYU, and many others.

We feature experienced test-prep experts for the SAT, ACT, SAT II, AP Exams, SSAT and other standardized tests. We teach aggressive techniques and strategies for mastering the test and boosting scores. But we also emphasize self-care and the psychology of test taking: the distinct blend of patience, confidence, and assertion that is needed to thrive on test day.

Our graduate level exam staff is truly outstanding, featuring some of the best and most experienced tutors in the New York area. Whether it is the LSAT, GMAT, GRE, or MCAT we can help you gain admittance to elite institutions and embark on your professional journey.

We offer elite-level subject tutoring in all core high and middle school subjects (writing, reading, math, science, history and languages), as well as diverse specializations in higher-level education. Our team has patience and skill in cultivating excellent study habits and reinforcing balanced approaches to rigorous academic demands. Executive functioning and study-skills coaching sessions can be arranged individually or to supplement ongoing subject tutoring.

College interview coaching is an emerging demand as more and more colleges indicate that they will emphasize interpersonal skills as a diagnostic criterion for college admissions. Our staff is uniquely suited for interview prep as many of our tutors have strong backgrounds in public speaking, debate, and theater.
