They are very responsive. We had the opportunity to meet more than 1 cos CB to find the best fit for my son. We are just getting started but I’m optimistic that our counselor will help my son prepare his applications over the summer.

Reviews
I had a great experience with Dewey Smart. My daughter was matched with a knowledgeable and patient tutor who made learning much easier and more enjoyable for her. The service was flexible, prompt, professional, and easy to use. I’ve seen a real improvement in her confidence already —highly recommend.
We have been using Dewey Smart for all 3 of our sophomore students for college prep, SAT, and subject tutoring for a year. Tutors are very professional, punctual, and guide you through the process. The scheduling system is simple and supports both students and parents. With larger packages we got a great value for money.
I bought tutoring sessions for all four of my girls - both for general tutoring and for SAT prep. Dewey’s tutoring sessions helped my girls’ understanding of material they were struggling with, and boosted their confidence. Highly recommend.
We are very pleased with the services we received from Emerson and Katelyn! They are both very professional, kind, caring and easy to work with! Katelyn does a great job explaining concepts to our son, making sure he fully understands the concepts and also helps him prepare for upcoming tests and quizzes! My son struggled the 1st half of the school in honors biology and did not really like the class. Since January 2026 he has been doing really well, today he got an A on his quiz! We are thankful to Emerson and Katelyn and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a tutor,
It’s been a great experience working Deweysmart team. In this complex path, they’ve made it very simple and my daughter was accepted in pretty much all the universities she applied to.
We have been using DeweySmart's service for a few months to help my high school senior kid with his AP Physics class. It seems to be helping him quite a bit because we noticed his grade has gone up. Our son's tutor has been very thorough when explaining things and has been pretty flexible when scheduling tutoring sessions. We're pretty satisfied with the service so far and we'll continue to use the service.
They have great tutors. Admin supports are very responsive and helpful. Both of my kids enjoyed and benefited from their services.
My experience working with DeweySmart is great. My tutor is very easy to talk to when I am stuck or have questions. Overall very helpful and I am seeing improvement from it.
I do not wish to take the time to complete this form.
What they say they would offer and what you have actually received is totally different。 Would not recommend this company 。
Dewey tutors have been helping my child with tutoring and test prep as of right now and we have seen grade improvements in just a few weeks. The tutor, Yasmin, is very knowledgeable, sweet and punctual. She knows what she is going and our daughter loves her.
Facts: they took $3k from me and usage is only 2 hours. Why would the usage be so low having paid upfront. Think and just stay away from them.
We had an excellent experience with Dewey Smart. Our tutor was prepared, positive, and great at turning big goals into practical, week-by-week steps. Communication was fast, scheduling was easy, and the resources they shared (checklists, examples, timelines) saved us time and stress. For what you pay, the amount of targeted, high-quality support you receive is a great value. We would absolutely recommend Dewey Smart to any family navigating high school and college planning.
Even though we did not sign up with Dewey , but our first interaction with Abby and then with the Emerson was quite informative.
The college counseling has been helpful for my daughter's admission preparation process! Definitely recommend.
The team at Dewey Smart has been so responsive and helpful and professional. It’s been a great experience and so glad we decided to use them!
When you tell them you are not interested in working with them, you are bombarded with texts and emails.
While follow up email with our consult was appreciated- the pressure and scare tactics were not necessary. We realize we may be behind the curve which is why we reached out to you in the first place. This company acted like they were doing us a favor with a smaller package of 5 hrs priced at $650- which is a lot of money but don’t act like you are doing us any favors . It’s still a business for profit regardless.
I’m so thankful we found the Dewey Smart Team. My daughter was really struggling with physics and needed help fast. They paired her with Kathryn, and she’s been amazing. The pricing was affordable compared to others we checked out. Best of all, my daughter went from feeling stressed and worried to confident and so much happier. Highly recommend!
