Conquer Your Career
The achievements you earned on your journey of academic heroism were hard fought victories that often came with sacrifice. You may recall the leaders that inspired you beyond the scope of your own dreams or lifted you up when you fell down.
Buy into our belief – deep learning is achieved through deep connection. We need you to help empower the next generation of heroes in the same way you acquired your achievement. Top Score passionately provides you with a rich and rewarding experience during your time on the team.
Why Top Score?
I started Top Score Education in 2004 as an antidote to “band-aid tutoring”—rather than simply teach test tricks, the goal was to inspire students to alter the way they learn, read, write, and problem-solve. Our company shield features the letter Delta representing change, and a staircase emblemizing ascension. We energize students to embrace these symbols as catalysts for higher scores, greater confidence, and empowering self-advocacy. Our students win debate tournaments, rock robotic competitions, achieve perfect SAT/ACT scores, and text us Nietzsche jokes. Former students even return to teach with us.
We remain small and exclusively hire career educators for whom personalization is not a goal, but a mandate. We are advocates of our students, friends of our families, and guides in an education landscape that can be tough to navigate.
I invite you to join the Top Score Education family and gain a trusted and true partnership.
