This review is long overdue. Last year my cousin had been in…read moredesperate need of a New York SAT tutor for her son. She had gone through a few tutors within the city however her son's practice scores were still hovering around the same average score. Since I am closer in age to her son, and well versed with many different testing centers- considering I've taken the SAT, ACT and the DAT (for dental school) as well as NBDE I,II (both for dental)- she asked me to help her find one that could help her son's learning style out. After some research and conversations with her son, I realized he needed more one on one tutoring rather than the online and classroom modules other companies utilize. With some good google searching I found tutor me NY and they were really personable and straight forward. The personal one on one touch was what my cousin's son needed and his scores greatly improved. Tutoring can be a tricky thing to find the right fit since its not a "one size fits all" type of service. My cousin was really happy with the results and I was really happy that they were easy to find, contact and get set up with. Would definitely recommend for SAT prep!

I am so happy I came across Tutor Me NY! My niece was struggling with the Math and Science portions…read moreof the ACT/SAT and her younger sibling needed a tutor for reading comprehension we have been testing out different services and tutors for quite some time. Luckily for us, money was not a main factor in deciding the best tutor, however, we were more concerned with finding one that was really experienced. We hired multiple companies that were supposedly "highly rated" and charged an arm and a leg but found the the tutor did not fit what we were looking for. Low and behold, a friend recommended Tutor Me NY and after seeing there great reviews online, I immediately decided to give them a call. Tutor Me Ny was fantastic from the get go. From explaining things, to not pressuring me, and even making sure that the tutor was to our standards - the whole experience was perfect. The tutor we were matched with was a Columbia graduate and she was able to work with both children back to back. She even met with one of them at a coffee shop in Manhattan which was extremely convenient. It has since been a few months and my nieces have both received their scores back and they did extremely well. In fact they are now working with another tutor for college apps and statistics. Overall very pleased with the service and felt compelled to share my experience with the world! Out of all the companies and tutors we tried, Tutor Me NY had the best tutor in New York!

Had an amazing experience with Idea Tutors!…read more After not taking a math class in years, I came in halfway through Calculus already failing the class and prepping for midterms. I also have a crazy hectic schedule as I work full time and am also going back to school. Nightmare client. I've never needed/gotten tutoring before so I was pretty skeptical but reached out anyway. Andrew connected me with Amy and she helped me catch up and pass the class. When I moved on to Calculus 2, I thought I might go it alone but quickly realized I couldn't hack it without help. I reached out again and worked with someone new, Teresa. She helped me go from failing the class to getting an A! Without the help of this group there's no way this could've been possible. I'm hugely in their debt. Both tutors were incredibly kind, patient, responsive, flexible and most of all, helpful. Andrew also is always kind and lightning fast responsive, exactly what you need when you're in a pinch. We worked together online using Skype and a great little whiteboarding app called Ziteboard. I was skeptical of that too, but it worked SO well and made scheduling so much easier! You pay for classes in a chunk but they practically instantly refund whatever you don't need. Cannot say enough nice things about Idea Tutors. Thank you!!

My schedule is unlike most people's but they were willing to work with me. I was able to grasp the material much better than if I tried on my own.

Message me for a discount code! TestMasters was a great experience! My teacher, Dorothy, was very…read morecaring and really made sure that people in the class were truly understanding the material. I increased my score 17 points, so that says something about their methodology. They really breakdown the LSAT so you understand the basics and what to expect on the actual test. By the time you are taking the LSAT, there are no surprises and it feels like just another practice test. I would recommend TestMasters to anyone wanting to take the LSAT. TestMasters helped me be able to go to a great law school and hopefully have a great career in law. Thank you so much to Dorothy and the creator, Robin.

I use to work here for a short time (thank god) now currently working in an Art Studio in New York City as an abstract artist and doing way better since I left this place and not having to wearing a look alike Walmart shirt, I'm thankful for the awesome kids I had in my class and some of the cool crafts even if they made a mess and would run around, looking after them and being their aftercare teacher was great. Alright anyways the director who looks like that Principal from that movie Matilda, extremely unorganized, does not pay her staff on time, does not communicate well with the teachers, does not check the classes to see how they are doing and if the teachers need any support, hides in her office all day doing god knows what. Anyways for the young girls who want to work here, DO NOT PLEASE, there's better environments and places I'm writing this for your own good you don't want to be stuck there and get treated like shit and be taken advantage of cause your young and then BOOM your stuck there. Unless it's part time and you're in college I get it but for a living dude you will be miserable. I'm super lucky to get out of this place and I was scared cause I thought I wouldn't find another job but now I'm doing what I love which is making art and working in the City and Brooklyn in a Studio.

I worked with Bara and two of TPNY's tutors last spring/summer to prepare for the GMAT, and they…read morewere phenomenal. I opted for tutoring vs. a class to get more individual attention and also a more tailored experience - focusing in on particular weaknesses rather than spending time learning everything from bottom-up to be applicable in a group setting. It really paid off. My tutors (Jennifer and Karen for quant and verbal, respectively) were really great, able to zero in really quickly on my particular areas of weakness and help develop my skills to address those problems (and quickly). Bara and Jennifer both also provide help with confidence, anxiety relief, and Jennifer even sent a pre-test-day brain food list. Taking a practice GMAT cold, no prep, I was at 640. With a little self-study, I was around 700. Working with TPNY, and taking the GMAT twice, I scored a 740, and then a 780. They're really top notch.

I was really satisfied with NYTP because: -The tutors are overqualified and give you great tips on how to handle the test (more broadly than just strategies for specific problems). Some of the tutors are also authors of GMAT textbooks -The advice was customized specifically for me - no canned approaches - saving time and helping me focus -Their material is excellent and designed to help you boost your score (especially above 700, if that's what you're going for) After having been through the entire Princeton Review experience, I can attest that if you want a tailored approach to help you maximize your score, NYTP has an excellent offering. I broke 700 in just 4 weeks! For me, it was well worth the value.
