Our philosophy

Every student’s mind is different. Their education should be too.

We combine Oxford-style one-on-one instruction with deep expertise in how different minds learn, regulate, and perform, whether a student is gifted and underchallenged, neurodivergent and underserved, or simply marching to the beat of their own drum.

Elisabeth Gray, Founder & Director

Elisabeth Gray

Founder & Director

Raised by a behavioral developmental pediatrician, Elisabeth grew up immersed in the wide range of learning types and abilities she encountered through her mother’s practice. At Oxford University, she discovered the one-on-one tutorial system, where the Socratic Method replaced rote memorization and activated her to think for herself. In 2005, she founded Oxford Tutors to bring that approach to students in the United States, from high-achievers seeking deeper challenge to complex learners navigating systems that weren’t built for them.

For more than two decades, Elisabeth has created bespoke education solutions across the globe, from California public schools to the Upper East Side, from elite prep schools to rural wilderness programs. Today, she serves as the firm’s intellectual architect: refining pedagogical frameworks, cultivating clinical and school partnerships, and mentoring the next generation of Oxford Tutors educators.

    Your child is matched with a curated team, selected by academic goals, learning style, personality, and needs. Senior mentors oversee strategy; mentors deliver day-to-day instruction.
