We can’t thank you enough for recommending Max as a tutor for our son. Our son has so enjoyed working with him in preparation for the ACT and as of late, the PSAT. He is an outstanding tutor, both in his knowledge base and his interpersonal skills. He demonstrates an excellent balance of empathy for the student, encouragement toward the student, and exhortation to work hard.
Your resources and unlimited advice beyond testprep are the best life connections we have ever had for my daughter.
Allison was terrific! Can’t say enough. Professional, smart, kind, and on time.
Our daughter’s SAT instructors, Ross and Rick, were terrific and continuously available to her for questions and encouragement. Austin did a great job with the ACT Blitz course. The proof is in the results — 700 on the Writing, 710 on the Critical Reading, and 760 on the Math. Her composite score on the ACT was 34!
My daughter did so well with Jesse (an 800 on her Math Level 2!!!). He has done an amazing job building her confidence. I can’t say enough. In fact, my daughter said the saddest part about being done is that eventually she will have to give Jesse up. She is taking AP Multivariable Calc next year just to keep him!
Thank you, Sam! I was struggling in AP Statistics and after just a few meetings with Sam, my grade in the class rose significantly. Additionally, he did a great job of preparing me for the AP test itself. I felt like I had a really good grasp on the material and his help made the AP much easier than I initially anticipated.
Sam is modest and understands the subtleties of competitive applications to boarding schools. With Sam’s focused and insightful help, and time flexibility, our time-crunched son completed the exam with an overall SSAT score in the 95th percentile and with a much more competitive balance between Verbal and Quantitative.
The distance learning made the course a bit more challenging, but I really liked how the format and structure was basically the same as one that we would do in class, just on a computer.
Sam – Thanks to all of your help on the SSAT, my daughter got into all 7 schools she applied to and is going to Taft! We were so lucky to have found you. I don’t think she would be going there without you. Thanks so much.
I wanted to thank you for recommending Caroline to us for my son. We are all walking around our house on cloud nine!!! Today his scores were released. We are so proud to tell you that he ended up with a 34. He went up 4 points just by having 5 sessions with Caroline. Without you this would not have been possible.
Lynn, Thank you so much for all of your help and advice! Sam was the best. Really I couldn’t say more positive things about working with her–if only everyone in my life were so conscientious, friendly, and diligent! We are delighted (and relieved) that the ISEE went well for our son, he worked really hard and I’m so glad it paid off for him. Thank you!
Sam rocks. My son had some issues in math and Sam boosted his score on the SAT by 70 points in just five sessions. If you’re looking for a super tutor for the SAT, look no further than Sam.
I just read the essay. Twice. I am beyond blown away and so moved. Authentic, powerful and real…Personal and serious. I love it so much and so does my daughter. What an incredible professor you must be.
My son’s composite ACT score improved 5 points from his pre-ACT to his 2nd ACT test. Lynn Carnegie is fantastic and really listens to what her clients need. My son first took the ACT Blast, and Lynn helped match him with great tutors along the way to hone in on his areas of weakness without sacrificing areas of strength.
