Yury was my tutor 11 years ago for the SAT. I was one of his first students, and he was very…read morehard-working and focused with us. He helped my vocabulary begin to grow. Back then he was working for someone else. Now with 11 years of experience, his own location, and his time as a public school teacher, Yury seems to be doing what he told us he would do all those years ago. This is an amazing tutor. He wants results from the kids. He wants to make sure that all his students know how to study on their own, so they never need another tutor again.

I have never met a person in my life who is more genuinely passionate about education than Yury…read more His goal is not to just make money, and not even to just prepare students for their exams. Yury strives to develop intellect and a desire to learn in his students. He teaches us how to read, write & analyze properly from a young age, and emphasizes the importance of looking up words we don't know, so we can learn. His motto is that he "doesn't teach students WHAT to think, he teaches them HOW to think," and that cannot be more accurate. His lessons do not simply help us fulfill our short term goals (passing an exam), but rather lay a foundation for us to know "how" to think, how to learn, and how to analyze for the rest of our lives.
