My son went from a frustrated 9th grader getting D's on his math tests to straight A's for the next three years. He actually signed himself up for AP Calculus his senior year because he wanted to maintain his knowledge going into college.
The tutors are great at explaining issues and problems that people like myself struggle with. I now enjoy math which allows me to understand and comprehend more clearly what is going on in class.
I despise math, but High Performance Tutoring helped me get an A in my medical statistics class. I was admitted to the hospital during finals week and my tutor came to my hospital room and tutored me there for our last session. He was great.
Ingo is incredible, and we are so grateful for all the hard work he does with our son. We feel so lucky to have him.
I've met with multiple tutors at HPT over several semesters for help in trig, calculus, linear algebra, and differential equations. They saved me from failing a few times. I'm pleased with the useful and professional support I received.
My daughter Hannah raised her ACT score from a 26 to a 33 after completing an intensive twelve-week training program with High Performance Tutoring. This score will open up so many doors for her!
I used High Performance Tutoring over a 5-week period during my preparation for the GMAT. Despite the short timeframe, we were able to hit my target score and I got accepted to the Booth School of Business in Chicago!
My tutor, Ingo, was incredibly helpful in guiding me toward a higher Quantitative GRE score. He was patient and thorough, and I learned more than just how to take the test — I learned fundamental math skills I'd let lapse. I'm really grateful for his help!
My son goes into tutoring so defeated from school, thinking it won't help him. But as soon as his sessions end, he has this sign of relief and can't wait to see Eugene again next time.
You guys are absolutely the best. We literally think Ingo walks on water.
Tutoring with Ingo has been so helpful. He's helping me discover fundamentals I never learned, while showing me I know more than I thought. I appreciate how he breaks down each problem and helps me prepare for similar ones.
Chase's grades are improving on tests, and he really likes Ingo, which is an added benefit! Great work, Ingo!
Parents don't come to us for a higher test score alone. They come for what a great tutor unlocks — the confidence and habits that shape a student's future long after the last session.

High Performance Tutoring was founded in 2011 by Victor Camacho with one belief: the best learning happens with the best teachers. What began in Salt Lake City as a small group of passionate math tutors has grown into a nationwide network helping students unlock their potential—including right here in Berkeley.
From the beginning, our mission has been to combine deep subject knowledge with exceptional communication. Every tutor passes a rigorous selection process and meets our High Performance Certification standards for expertise, teaching ability, and personality.
Demand soon expanded beyond math and science into a wide range of subjects and test prep. We built custom scheduling systems, hired dedicated support staff, and streamlined every step of the tutoring experience to deliver consistent, high-quality service.
What hasn't changed is our passion. We love what we do, and we're proud to have helped thousands of students raise their grades, boost test scores, and gain confidence. Every Berkeley student deserves a tutor who can truly make a difference—and we're excited to deliver exactly that.
Schedule your free first session in Berkeley and meet a tutor who will help your student reach further than they thought possible.
We've helped 3,678+ students since 2011.
