Our Journey Towards Empowering Minds

Whether a student is seeking to excel in a particular subject, gain admission to a top-tier university, or develop stronger study habits and critical reasoning abilities, our personalized tutoring program provides the guidance, support, and inspiration needed to achieve their goals.

Students learn to analyze complex topics from multiple perspectives, think creatively to devise original solutions, and communicate their ideas clearly and persuasively. This multifaceted approach goes far beyond simple test prep or homework help. We strive to instill a true passion for learning, equipping students with a robust intellectual toolkit that will serve them well throughout their academic journeys and into their future careers.

Thought Club. Meet The Founder

Elisabeth Gray completed her undergraduate education at Oxford University and her master’s at Yale University. A lifetime educator, Gray started her career creating curriculum for the state of California to support and help students with ADHD achieve their highest potential in the classroom. Having taught learning strategies in environments as widely ranging as Russian orphanages and Big Sur, in 2007, Gray launched Oxford Tutors, an educational consultancy in New York City dedicated to supporting the individual learning needs of every child. Thought Club emerged from her desire to support as many children as possible in the mission to improve their thinking and outcomes both within and beyond the classroom.
