The TGS Team

Our team is made up of past clients and current contractors — people who sat where you're sitting, struggled with the same problems, and came out the other side with the scores they needed. Collectively, we span over 1,000 years of teaching experience and over 1 million classroom hours.

We hire past clients because nobody understands the student experience like someone who's lived it. They've proven the methodology works on themselves first.

Every person on this team is hungry to bring world-class education to everyone.
