Indian Secondary Education Exams

  • CBSE

Turito also offers help with AP tests, as well as general guidance through the college application process.

Live Classes

While some test prep companies offer only self-directed study materials, Turito provides interactive classes where students learn from a live, experienced teacher. 

Two-Teacher Model

Turito employs a two-teacher model in its live courses. Two teachers are always present during every live course: one to teach the class, and another to answer student questions along the way. This ensures that students can have their questions answered without slowing down the rest of the class. 

Every live class is recorded and available to watch as many times as needed during the course, so If a student misses part of the class because they were asking a question, they can go back and watch the course again.

Faculty Experience

Turito teachers are extremely experienced; the company’s faculty each have 10–25 years of experience.

One-on-One Tutoring

Turito employs an expert tutor for each subject who can tutor 5th-grade through 12th-grade students one-on-one in math and science. Students can use these tutoring sessions to get help with homework, catch up on concepts they’re confused about or work ahead on their curriculum.

Free Demo Class

Turito offers a free demo class so potential clients can experience a one-on-one tutoring session and decide whether the test prep company is right for them before signing up.

Artificial Intelligence

Turito uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to create tests based on each individual student’s strengths and weaknesses. Turito’s artificial intelligence technology then analyzes the student’s test performance and uses it to make personalized recommendations of study materials.

Availability

Turito is available to students in not only the United States, but also Singapore, India, and the Middle East.

The Bad

  • Website Irregularities
  • Website Lacking Information

Website Irregularities

The written content on Turito’s website is riddled with seemingly randomly capitalized words and grammatical errors. These issues cast some doubt on the company’s ability to help students prepare for English-based exams, especially those that test students on their English and writing skills. 

Website Lacking Information

The Turito website is missing some key information that could help potential customers, including the prices for its courses and what, exactly, the money-back guarantee covers. 

gavel

The Bottom Line

While many test prep companies provide excellent on-demand resources for self-directed study, Turito also provides live classes over the internet. These classes allow students to have an interactive classroom experience wherever it’s most convenient for them. These classes are recorded so students can revisit them anytime during the course. 

One downside to Turito is that its website doesn’t include information about the price for its services. It does advertise a money-back guarantee, but it doesn’t include any details about what the conditions of the guarantee are. 

Turito’s website also contains grammatical errors and irregular capitalization that hurt its credibility in terms of being able to help students with English and writing skills. 

Turito is generally a good option for those looking for personalized, interactive help over the internet — particularly for students who are looking for help with science and math. Turito also stands out for its unique course offerings for Indian students. 

Students who need more help in the English and writing departments may be better off with another test prep company.

Teresa Sherin Pamela Melbourne, VIC

Beware - They have a strategy to use best teacher for trial and initial enrolment to take money out of your pocket. Once you purchase the bundle classes, they will give reasons to change the teachers and dilute the quality of classes. Teachers do not go as per the student pace rather tick the boxes designed by Turito . Which does not work in Australian curriculum. Inspite of all issues they are not agreeing to refund the unused classes. Very pushy to purchase 50 class bundle during the initial enrollment. When the quality of coaching detoriates no cancellation or refund . As per policy, refund can be claimed only before 30 days. Their real colors revealed after first 30 days. Please dont waste money on them.

I signed up online SAT services for my son but after few classes we decided to cancel service and request refund. Some practice questions answers were confusing/way off (tutor agreed) and some practice questions had garbled text (technical problem). Looks like they neither proofread practice question nor tested website. They offered to apply credit for 1-1 lessons which we declined. The contract clearly indicate if we don't like classes we will be refunded for un-used classes. I have been emailing and calling every contact I have to follow-up on refund for past 6 months without any progress. This company is WORST. Please don't use it.

Does not deserve single star also. I choose because there is no other option. In one word "Turito is scam". Please think twice before paying. Turito is cheaper than other web based tutors but they did not deserve for that also. If you want to try go for 3-4 classes not more than that i am sure you will not continue in future with Turito. Why i am saying it is a scam, please refer below points. 1. Teacher is sleeping during class. More focus on passing the time. No attentive at all. 2. Random topic selection(No syllabus)). No assignment/homework. No trace of progress. 3. Communicating over WhatsApp and keep changing the numbers. 4. Dedicated relationship manager but not available to talk to resolve the issues. 5. You will never hear anything from them on issues you have to keep calling them to resolve the issues. Mostly you will not get connected with them. 6. I know 7 kids who were attending classes from Turito and now they all stopped.

The training quality was very substandard. The sales staffs will give a lot of false commitments, dont fall prey to their false commitments and waste your money and time. I spoke to a few parents who had enrolled their children with Turito and none of them continued after the first set of classes. Turito survives with first time enrolls and students don't continue for long. They would also circulate attractive referral bonus scheme but never pay the bonus and would cheat you by stating new terms and conditions.

Sarala Little Elm, TX

I am writing to share my recent experience with Turito, an educational services company, and express my deep concerns regarding the quality of service they provide. Over the past two months, my child's English and Math tuition classes with Turito have been marred by a series of issues, including frequent rescheduling, teacher absences, sudden changes in class days, and portal malfunctions. Despite my repeated requests for resolution, the company has shown a lack of responsiveness and has been unable to provide a reliable solution. I believe it is crucial for us, as parents, to be aware of the challenges and inconsistencies our children might face when enrolled in services like Turito. The impact on their academic progress and overall learning experience can be significant. I urge you to exercise caution and thoroughly consider alternative options before choosing Turito for your child's educational needs. It is essential that we, as a community, share our experiences and concerns to ensure that no parent falls victim to such companies that prioritize profit over the well-being and education of our children. Let's unite in spreading awareness about the challenges we have faced with Turito, so that other parents can make informed decisions for the benefit of their children's education. Thank you for your attention, and I sincerely hope that together we can create a supportive community that prioritizes the academic success and well-being of our children.

I would only say dislike very unprofessional staff when it comes to request leave of absence. They didnt inform me that my son's english class was canceled I found out when the tutor actually checked with me thinking that I canceled the class but it was turito didnt inform the client nor the tutor for the cancelation of the class and they expect from clients that they should request a leave of absence from student 4 hours prior to the class when they are not organized and on top of that when you raise the ticket it says 24 hours to contact us and same on the chat you have to force the help desk to help us they wont reply if u dont remind them after 10 mins by putting signs Very irresponsible and unfriendly staff and the portal.

We had bad experience with this company, actually ended up forgoing $1500 Save your time and money, don't sign up for their service. They lock you in with lumpsum payment and after that they don't care about the service. Too many issues to write here, please circulate among your friend circles. Don't waste your money. When we sign up they have advised that they will refund the money back and now they are wasting time and advise that due to there T & C they cannot refund, very horrible service no business ethics...please don’t even think to sign up with them. their customer support is terrible and platform are non-existent. With all this experience we need to file case in consumer court as they are cheating every one and need to have a lesson ( I did save all my conversations as well )

I have a really bad experience with Turito. They just call every 2nd day until you enrol your child. They make false promises that online classes can be stopped at anytime if we don't like the teaching and fees are refunded. Enrolled one of Mt Child paid $800 upfront. Very bad teaching. 1 hour class only goes for 40 min. Platform does not work. Their platform does not support video or interactive based learning. They will never refund your money. Customer service is bad. I had to stop classes and lost all the fees paid. Fraud practices. PLEASE DO NOT FALL INTO THEIR TRAP. Have your child with face to face classes. Once you pay the fees they are different. My child use to login and wait for the teacher, when we call customer support, they said today teacher is absent. Paid fees for 100 classes. Stopped only after 30 classes and lost all money paid as they will not refund. I had to give atleast 1 star to be able to submit review. Actually 0 stars. FRAUD. THEY MAKE MONEY USING CHILDREN AND EDUCATION.

Turito is the worst online tutorial company I ever seen, very bad response from Relationship Managers, always having connection issues with Teacher. Sometimes teachers put you in hold with mic and video off. Not sure how the other have very brilliant experience with Turito,, We are dealing with them 4 months, what was inttially said is not in course material, After having many calls and discussions, they charged the double the price on a particular course. When i want to cancel and refund no response from sales team or relationship manager from last 3 weeks. This is genuine review, please think twice before choosing Turito.

Here are a few examples: 1. There is no such thing as a Relationship Manager, who they claim will always be available when you require their services. 2. You will be killed in a battle of back and forth with idiots on the Helpdesk who have no authority to do anything when it comes to rescheduling or canceling a class. 3. Even if your internet is the fastest, the videos and microphones do not work during a class. 4. There are some teachers who are good- no problems there. 5. The dashboard they use to manage the service is below average. 6. It is not possible to complete homework online and must be submitted and uploaded each time it is assigned. In comparison with other providers, there are many more providers who are 100 times better than them, so parents are requested not to get trapped in this shambolic Turito system. I find it to be utterly inadequate!

We had a very bad experience with Turito. Most of the time things will go fine, however, their customer support and platform are non-existent. Half of the time, teachers will not join the class and then it is a nightmare. They don't inform on time and the teacher and the platform are always out of sync. They don't respect parents' and student's time also a very unprofessional company. There are many companies that are better than this, hence, will request everyone not to do business with Turito.

Whatever the 4 or 5 star ratings that you are seeing, they are all paid! Their fee structure is a fraudulent scheme. They will force you to pay in advance for say, 100 classes and (fake) promise you that they would return pro-rata in case you discontinue. We trusted in them and paid the money. When we asked to return the money as and when we wanted discontinue their service (reason explained below), they said that they changed their "policy", hence not returning any money. So flexible policy. Glad that they did not change their policy that we had to pay double the price to discontinue the service. Absolute cheating! It's an online scam. Don't get trapped. We saw absolutely 0 gain for our child and it was a waste of time. The teacher comes in first 10 minutes and disappears. Then comes back in the last 5 minutes and says goodbye. Initially it was good, but when they realize that the parents are not with the students, they let the kids play some game and just do their own work. The tutor does not even know any basics of coding, but she was supposed to be a coding tutor. In addition to these, you will get a promotional call from them every week to pull your friends into this game. You will be paid $100 referral bonus :). So kind!

DO NOT Reply Alpharetta, GA

I cannot express my disappointment enough with Turito's services. They have proven to be nothing but a deceitful and untrustworthy online education platform. From start to finish, my experience with them was riddled with cheating, false promises, a lack of refund policy, and downright negligent teaching methods. Turito's refund policy is virtually non-existent. Despite their claims of customer satisfaction and money-back guarantees, they conveniently neglected to refund my payment when I expressed my dissatisfaction with their services. It's clear that they are more interested in profiting from unsuspecting customers than delivering on their promises The quality of online teaching on Turito was abysmal. The instructors were often unprepared and seemed to lack subject knowledge. Their explanations were vague and unclear, leaving students confused and frustrated. Technical issues were a constant problem, with poor audio and video quality that hindered effective communication and learning. I regret ever engaging with Turito. Their cheating culture, false promises, lack of refund policy, and subpar teaching quality have left me deeply dissatisfied. I strongly advise anyone considering their services to look elsewhere for a reliable and trustworthy online education platform. Turito simply cannot be trusted to deliver on their claims.

I would say even 1star is more for Turito. There's no one responsible who can take the ownership of classes. The relationship manager has no powers except asking for more classes and not responsive. The children classes are cancelled just before the class without any reason. I understand there are personal reasons but that should be informed with advance notice and alternative should be discussed. It's not 1 or 2 times, this happens on a regular basis for all the classes irrespective of Tutors. I asked multiple times to speak to their management about the classes but nobody bothers. Never had such worst experience in my life and would caution anyone opting for their classes.

SCAM ALERT!! I have had the sales person constantly… I have had the sales person constantly contact me unlimited times in a day to confirm if I want my child to enrol. Once I gave a go ahead, they were constantly after me to finalise the payment “as he was under a lot of pressure”. As soon as I did the payment, and asked for a timetable for classes to start, there has been zero correspondence. Complete ignorance of my messages and no reply to my calls. Whereas earlier I would get a response within seconds. Do not fall prey to it. It’s a scam!

I am getting calls from Turito every day either from USA or Canada random phone numbers. I have requested them every time to remove my phone number from their list. But the very second day, I am getting another call from them. My phone number is on the federal government's National Do Not Call Registry. I don't understand how do these companies get our number and making random calls , This has to be stopped.

Terrible experience. Joined with a 3 month trial with promise of full refund if cancelled within a month. Cancelled after couple of classes as teacher couldn't communicate well in english and my daughter was having trouble understanding. They did respond to my refund request after a week and then kept saying refund will be issued but they didn't issue a refund for a month. Luckily I paid via paypal and disputed the transaction to get full refund. DO NOT TRUST THEM. They will say anything to get you to pay.

They are from India and very difficult to understand. They call obsessively and email non stop. Save yourself the trouble and tell them you don’t have children. We did a free trial class and I had to sit with my son to translate the heavy Indian accent, then the gentleman who called to say we could have a different “tutor” had the same heavy accent. Don’t waste your time.
