Our story starts at a kitchen table.
What began as after-school help for a few Dripping Springs students has grown into the Hill Country's most-loved tutoring center, still built on the same belief that every child deserves to feel capable.
From a dining room table to Dripping Springs' favorite
Noble Tutoring & Prep began a decade ago, right at Kathy's dining room table. As a full-time high school teacher in Dripping Springs, Kathy saw the growing need for student support beyond regular school hours. What started as after-school sessions gradually blossomed into a full commitment to a nurturing, encouraging place to learn.
In 2018, Kathy took a leap of faith, leaving a position at the University of Texas to pursue her passion for helping students excel. Today, Noble Tutoring & Prep offers everything from reading and math to test prep and executive functioning at all ages, with a team of about twenty certified teachers, most of whom are full-time educators themselves.
