What's it like to work at Sage?
“As a tutor, I focus on building a good rapport with my students. Whether it be about mitosis or matrices, learning is much easier with someone who’s been there and understands all the demands on today’s students.”
—Kendall Olsen, B.S., Stanford University
“I strive to help my students gain a deeper understanding of course material, enabling them to develop their own analytic skills to find solutions. The application of principles and concepts that extend beyond memorization is essential for college and beyond.”
—Shahin Zarafshar, B.S., Stanford University
