From our families

What parents are telling us

Aristotle is so impressive. It explained a math problem to my daughter that ChatGPT couldn't figure out.

Akshay

parent of Tara, 15

My son told me yesterday that we should cancel his human tutor, Aristotle is doing a better job. The human tutor was $250/hour.

Kim

parent of Andy, 13

Sam got an A+. So it def worked!!!

Why families switch

Everything an hourly tutor can't be

On demand, 24/7

No scheduling, no weekly slot. Help is there during homework at 9pm and the morning before the test.

A fraction of the cost

Unlimited sessions on a flat plan instead of paying a human tutor by the hour.

Truly personalized

Aristotle tracks every skill your child has mastered and teaches at their exact frontier: never too easy, never too far ahead.

Driven by science

How Aristotle works

Built for the enhanced ACT

Prep that follows the real test

The official categories

ACT Math skills are organized around the test's reporting categories and English around its rule types, so practice matches how the test is actually scored.

Your child's strengths and gaps

Aristotle tracks Math and English separately and spends time where the points actually are, instead of drilling what your child already knows.

Your target score

Working toward a specific composite or an application deadline? Aristotle builds the path backwards from test day.

FAQ

Common questions about online ACT tutoring

ACT Math and ACT English, with 284 individually tracked skills between them. Math is organized around the test's reporting categories: Number and Quantity, Algebra, Functions, Geometry, and Statistics and Probability. English covers Production of Writing, Knowledge of Language, and Conventions of Standard English. Reading and Science tutoring aren't mapped yet; Math and English are where most score movement happens.

Yes. The curriculum follows the enhanced ACT format, which ACT rolled out for national online testing in April 2025, moved to national paper and international testing in September 2025, and brought to state and district testing in spring 2026.

Your child works through practice problems out loud with Aristotle on a shared whiteboard, whether that's a functions problem or a punctuation rule. Aristotle asks questions, listens to their reasoning, and guides them to the answer. Sessions start whenever your child is ready, with no scheduling.

Test-prep tutors charge $60 to $120 an hour for general prep, and established specialists in major cities run $150 to $300 an hour, which puts a few sessions a week at $720 or more a month. Aristotle costs $299 a month for unlimited sessions across every subject, or $49 for a single session.

Chatbots hand your child the answer and forget them when the chat ends. Aristotle teaches the way expert tutors do: it asks your child to explain their thinking, finds the misconception underneath a wrong answer, and guides them with questions until they can solve it themselves. It also tracks every ACT skill across sessions and plans what to practice next, like a tutor who never forgets.

Yes. Parents get a summary after every session, and the parent dashboard shows which skills your child has mastered and where they are stuck. Sessions are reviewed, and every tutor response is checked before it reaches your child.

That is the normal case, and it is what the skill map is for. Aristotle tracks Math and English separately, spends time where points are actually available, and traces weak spots back to the prerequisite skill that is missing instead of drilling the same question type again.

Whenever they start, Aristotle meets them where they are. Many families begin a few months before the first test date, but a shorter runway also works: sessions are unlimited and on demand, so your child can practice every day without scheduling or per-hour costs.
