Awaken Education

We are a test prep, tutoring, and college consulting company based in Manhattan. Our students come from New York City, Westchester, Long Island, Upstate NY, New Jersey, Boston, and Asia. Our staff of college consultants and tutors all graduated from top institutions like Harvard, Cornell, Columbia, Brown, Cambridge, Oxford, Williams, and Middlebury. Many of us are former or current classroom teachers, and more than half of us have, or are working on, advanced degrees like MAs or PhDs in our fields. Our team of college counselors includes a former Director of Admissions at Williams and Swarthmore. We have guided our students to colleges like MIT, Columbia, Yale, Princeton, Dartmouth, Cornell, Swarthmore, Williams, and the like. And many of us are native New Yorkers, so we can understand the kind of pressure cooker environments kids face in their schools! Our mission is to bring the art of pedagogy to efficient, methodical, and empathetic instruction.
