About Us
What sets Inspirica apart?
For over forty years, Inspirica experts have been dedicated to providing an elite roster of tutors with expertise in a broad range of academic subjects and standardized tests. Our team has a collective experience from schools such as Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Stanford, MIT, and NYU, to name a few.
Inspirica continually seeks out the best tutors and provides them with the resources and support to empower students to identify and utilize their strengths and interests. Our counseling, test prep, and academic services are seamlessly integrated to give students the most comprehensive support available.
Incredible Tutors
Inspirica’s elite tutors offer decades of expertise in a wide array of academic subjects and standardized tests. While we hire anyone who’s proven they can inspire greatness, our tutors tend to have been educated at world-class schools at every level, like Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Stanford, MIT, Cambridge, Berkeley, Exeter, Dalton, and Brearley.Â
We don’t just take smart rookies out of college and train them. Instead, we source the best tutors out there, those who have built their own followings through years of great results and ecstatic families. We look for tutors who transform lives and are remembered decades later. Then we bring them together, empower them to choose what’s best for their students, let them share their ideas with one another, and watch the magic happen.

History
Noodle TutorsÂ
Noodle Tutors began in 2010 when edtech entrepreneur John Katzman invited a select group of his favorite New York tutors to start a new and better tutoring company. All were longtime colleagues at The Princeton Review, which Katzman founded in 1981 and ran for decades. With an amazing core of all-star tutors, Noodle established a stellar reputation in New York as the go-to group for the best test prep. By 2014, we had expanded globally, and provided a complete range of tutoring for our clients, across nearly all ages, subjects, and tests. From preschool through graduate school and beyond, students and families seeking excellence knew that Noodle tutors were the Pros.
Inspirica
In 1983, Lisa Jacobson founded Inspirica as the nation’s first one-on-one test preparation company. Since then, our world-class tutors have helped guide over 40,000 students through the testing process, and Lisa has been interviewed on nearly all of the nation’s top news outlets including The Today Show, Good Morning America, NBC News, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times, and Time and Newsweek magazines.
In 2021, Inspirica and Noodle Pros joined forces and merged our tutoring divisions into Inspirica, which combines our veteran tutors into one organization teaching nearly every standardized test and academic subject, through customized programs both online and at home.
