Enjoy expert tutoring from anywhere. Whether you’re in Riyadh, Jeddah, Dhahran, or abroad, online sessions fit seamlessly into your family’s schedule.
Students in Saudi Arabia working with us see measurable academic progress, stronger confidence, and standout performance in exams, coursework, and college applications.
Cardinal Education has worked with students from some of Saudi Arabia’s leading local and international schools. Our tutors and admissions experts understand national, British, IB, and American curricula and know how to turn that academic success into winning U.S. applications. From SAT/ACT prep to subject tutoring and strategic admissions planning, we help Saudi students stand out and achieve their goals.
We know time zones can feel like a math problem no one signed up for, but we’ve solved it for you. Cardinal Education works with families across the globe, so scheduling around Riyadh Standard Time is second nature to us. Our team creates flexible tutoring calendars that work with your child’s school schedule, after-school commitments, and even those surprise family events.
How? We have a wide range of tutors who can accommodate early mornings, late evenings, and everything in between. You’ll never hear us say, “Sorry, that’s past bedtime for us.” Instead, we make sure learning happens when your child is most focused and ready to shine.
Plus, our sessions are online and easy to access, so no commuting or adjusting dinner plans. Just log in, learn, and leave the time zone headaches to us. With Cardinal Education, global tutoring feels like it’s happening next door.
Absolutely. In fact, test prep is one of the things we’re famous for. Whether it’s the SAT, ACT, SSAT, or ISEE, we know these exams inside and out. We go beyond drilling practice questions. Our tutors teach strategies for timing, pacing, and reducing those last-minute panic moments that standardized tests are notorious for.
We also personalize everything. A student aiming for an elite U.S. private school has different priorities than someone focused on top-tier colleges. That’s why we customize plans based on your child’s goals, strengths, and, yes, even weaknesses.
And because we work with students worldwide, we understand the unique challenges international applicants face, from navigating unfamiliar question formats to adjusting to adaptive test systems. The result? Confidence on test day and scores that make admissions officers take notice. If your family is aiming for U.S. success, consider us your secret weapon for mastering the alphabet soup of exams.
For our Saudi families, we offer online tutoring exclusively, and here’s why that’s a good thing. First, it means you’re not limited by location. You get access to the same expert tutors who work with students in the U.S., all without leaving your living room. No traffic, no rushing, no sitting in coffee shops waiting for a session to end.
Our online platform is designed to make learning feel interactive and personal. Think shared whiteboards, real-time problem solving, and video calls that feel more like engaging conversations than lectures. Every session is live and fully tailored, so your child isn’t just watching someone talk—they’re actively involved.
The best part? Flexibility. We can schedule sessions early in the morning or late at night to fit your family’s lifestyle. And because everything happens online, your child can switch seamlessly between math tutoring one day and SAT prep the next without juggling locations. Convenience, flexibility, and world-class expertise—all without leaving home.
Yes, and this is where we really shine. Writing a U.S. college essay is a completely different ball game from writing for class. It’s not about flowery language or memorized structures—it’s about storytelling that feels authentic yet polished. That’s where we come in.
Our consultants help students find their voice, brainstorm compelling ideas, and craft essays that make admissions officers think, “We need this student on campus.” And it doesn’t stop with the personal statement. We guide you through supplemental essays, activity lists, and everything else that makes up a U.S. application.
We also bring cultural expertise to the table. We understand the challenge of translating achievements from a Saudi context into something that resonates with American schools. Our role is to bridge that gap without losing your child’s unique identity.
So yes, from essays to strategy, we’re here to make sure your child doesn’t just apply to college—they apply with confidence, creativity, and a clear competitive edge.
