Where Tutors Fall Short
Most prep breaks down after the lesson ends. Gurutor fills that gap by guiding your study process with step-by-step feedback, real GMAT content, and support that never clocks out.

If you’ve ever worked with a tutor or taken a GMAT course, the session itself probably felt productive. The material made sense, the instructor was helpful, and for that hour, things felt under control.
But then came the hard part: studying on your own. And that’s where most prep efforts break down.
What seemed clear during the lesson becomes murky when you’re sitting at your desk two days later. Strategies blur. You second-guess your approach. You waste time reviewing what you already know just to avoid what still feels uncertain.
This disconnect between instruction and application is the quiet failure of most GMAT tutoring services. The issue isn’t the explanation – it’s the gap between learning and doing. A good session doesn’t guarantee a good study habit. And no one’s helping you bridge that gap.
Gurutor was designed to fix that. It’s a GMAT prep course platform that doesn’t just teach – you’ll find no playlists or passive videos here – but one that actually walks you through the study process itself. It’s built for students who want clarity, feedback, and results from every hour they invest.
In this article, we’ll look at why traditional tutoring often falls short, what Gurutor does differently, and what it actually means to study with a tutor that never has a bad day.
Tutoring is often marketed as the gold standard. And in theory, it is – personalized instruction, real-time feedback, tailored pacing. But in practice, most tutoring still follows a simple rhythm: you meet once or twice a week, get a lesson, then go off on your own.
And that’s where the problem starts.
Students don’t struggle during the lesson. They struggle between lessons. They run into roadblocks on their own and either reinforce bad habits, spiral into second-guessing, or lose time reviewing the wrong things.
The lesson content might be solid. But there’s no system for what happens after.
Trusted by ambitious scorers who needed more than videos and wishful thinking.
Gurutor was designed by Matthew Brandon, a multiple 99th-percentile-scoring GMAT tutor has seen this exact problem in hundreds of students. The idea was simple: what if you could replicate the structure and feedback of live tutoring – during every single study session?
Here’s what sets Gurutor apart:
1. Real-time feedback while you work
Gurutor doesn’t just explain the logic after you’ve made a mistake. It recognizes when you’re going off track mid-problem and offers help immediately. It’s the only prep platform that supports how you think, not just what you know.
2. Built on official GMAT questions
Many platforms create their own content. Gurutor uses licensed GMAT materials – so you’re practicing with the same style, structure, and logic as the real exam. No imitations. No surprises.
3. Designed for independent study – without being alone
Gurutor supports you the way a tutor would: guiding your logic, correcting your blind spots, and reinforcing the right habits. But unlike a tutor, it’s always available. And it never forgets your mistakes.
4. Efficient, not endless
Gurutor doesn’t offer 100,000 questions or 200+ hours of video. And that’s intentional. You don’t need volume. You need the right problem at the right time – and someone to tell you if you’re solving it correctly. Gurutor prioritizes precision, not overload.

Gurutor is built for students who are serious about their scores and tired of inefficient prep.
Built by Matthew Brandon who’s done the work on both sides of the classroom.
After spending three years teaching math and psychology in the Teach for America program, Matthew joined a major GMAT Prep company, where he helped thousands of group-class and tutoring students realize their business school dreams. After gaining an insider’s perspective on the strengths and weaknesses of traditional GMAT prep, Matthew sought to create a resource that combines superior efficiency and results of one-on-one tutoring with the affordability of a group class.
