Welcome to Ivystar
Ivystar is a mentorship platform designed to help learners across life stages, from middle school to mid-career, grow faster and dream bigger through one-on-one sessions in academics and planning. It’s completely free to join Ivystar and use the platform. You’ll only be charged when you book a 1:1 online session with a mentor. Session pricing varies depending on the mentor you’re matched with, and we’ll always share full details before you confirm a session.
