Our take

Tutor of Dragons wears its focus in its name: this is a locally owned Southlake tutor built around Carroll ISD, not a national franchise. The instruction is personalized and pitched directly at the courses Carroll students actually take — English I through IV on-level and advanced, math from arithmetic up through calculus, natural sciences, Spanish through the AP level, and history including AP World, US and European History — so a Dragon parent isn't translating a generic curriculum onto their kid's schedule. That alignment, plus a stated track record with Carroll ISD students, is the differentiator.

It covers a wide span — kindergarten through 12th grade, plus homeschool families — and adds test prep: ACT and SAT for the college-bound, plus AP exams, Credit by Exam, the ISEE and CogAT. The stated approach is patient, building confidence first: slow the pace enough to find where understanding breaks down, then rebuild from a solid foundation. It's built for the Carroll student who needs real subject support or test prep from someone fluent in their exact classes, rather than generic drop-in help.

Local Tips

Tutor of Dragons is on North White Chapel Boulevard in north Southlake. The hours are the practical standout: weeknights run late — Monday through Thursday until 10:30 PM — and it's open Sunday from noon into the evening, while closed Friday and Saturday, apart from sessions booked around ACT and SAT test dates. That late-evening window is genuinely useful for a Carroll high-schooler fitting tutoring in after practice, rehearsal, or a job. Enrollment runs through the site's sign-up rather than a walk-in, so plan to register a session ahead.

Carroll ISD Connection

This is one of the most direct Carroll ISD ties in the category, and it's by design. The center states it helps guide students "through the CISD system," advertises a proven track record with Carroll ISD, and organizes its subjects around Carroll's own course structure — English I–IV at on-level and advanced tiers, AP Spanish, the math sequence Carroll runs. It isn't a formal district partnership, but the practical relationship is tight: the center works with Southlake and Carroll ISD students on the specific classes and standards they're graded on, which is exactly what the business is built to do.

Credentials

Tutor of Dragons is a locally owned Southlake tutoring center operating since 2021, founded by Elizabeth "Miss Liz" Presley, who brings a background in psychology from the University of Texas at Arlington to how she works with students. The center describes a team of experienced tutors delivering personalized instruction aligned to Carroll ISD coursework across math, science, English language arts, Spanish and history, along with test preparation for the ACT, SAT, AP exams, Credit by Exam, the ISEE and CogAT. The "Liz" that families single out in the site's testimonials for helping students regain confidence in high-school math is the founder herself.
