Who are you?

Your undergrad is complete. You're working on a master's degree or a PhD in math, some area of science, business, programming, or the humanities. You're in a TA position or maybe even doing a postdoc. Or you have already been offering homework help online for years.

Who are we?

We're based in LA, and we've been working together as a team since 2014. We started out offering learning services ourselves, so we know what it's like to freelance. It starts with an expectation to be treated fairly. For more on who we are, click "Our Story" at the top of the page.

Why should you work with us?

Payment is guaranteed for work completed so you never have to worry about payment processing. We take care of all the marketing for you as well. We're in middle stages of growth, so we have customers, but we're not so huge that fellow tutor competition is overwhelming.

How does StudyGate handle my privacy?

Our goal is to create an environment of productivity. To facilitate that, all activities and communication between experts and students remain anonymous. Any and all information provided to StudyGate will be used for security purposes only.
