Nothing beats the convince of having both your math and english tutors at the same location, and their flexibility in scheduling is great. Ray takes time to make sure you have an understanding of the math concepts, even if it means he explains the content in several different ways. Sheri takes great care in going over the english sections, as well as pays attention to every detail you include in your practice essays (and gives invaluable advice which helps you enhance your essays on the test). I wouldn't have gone to anyone else for my tutoring needs, and I know we will be sending my younger brother to them in the future. -Nicole Katz, former student

The counselor is clearly a snob who's not interested in helping students, only crushing their dreams and telling them to aim lower. I listened to the entire counseling session, and the she was extremely rude and bitter and all around not helpful. Her whole agenda is to instill fear into applicants so they'll pay her more. The counselor was genuinely one of the worst people I've ever met and it's shocking to me that she can feel good about herself. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to name drop, but she had a very pretentious name that started with a D. If this sounds like your counselor, RUN.

I've spent the last four weeks in his class, and it was phenomenal. Of course he's incredibly knowledgeable, but what sets him apart is his ability to make complex material approachable and keep the class engaged from start to finish. He's smart, entertaining, and clearly knows this business inside and out. What impressed me most, though, was the confidence he instills in his students. Starting something new can be intimidating, especially when you're preparing for an exam and entering a completely new field. Mondo has a way of teaching that makes you feel capable. He doesn't just teach the material, he helps you believe that you can actually do this. I left the course feeling informed, prepared, and excited about what's next. That's a rare combination. Anyone can teach facts. Very few people can teach knowledge while also building confidence. I feel incredibly fortunate to have taken this course and to have learned from Armando. Anyone who has the opportunity to study with him is lucky.

She's very proffesional, knowledgeable, helpful, nice, and easy to relate to. She can come to your house too which was nice ! She was so easy to get appts with, something that I found difficult to do with the local tutors in the area. I was on my wits end when I made a last call to her, sure that she would be unavailable or unreachable by phone like all the other tutors I had called that day. Luckily, she was available short notice and I made two tutoring appointments with her for a Statistics final and instantly felt better after each. She showed me how to input information in my graphing calculator to figure out problems and explained the material that confused me. She even gave me a delicious, homemade chocolate chip cookie on our last apt. Give her a call, you won't regret it!

Megan takes the time to make sure my daughter really understands the concepts and can work out problems. She is always on time, and a pleasure to have around the house. She has taken the initiative to create study groups for my daughter with others in the same class needing the same levels of support. I love that! Besides being a great tutor, Megan is fair and honest. Several years ago I had her come to evaluate our daughter for tutoring on another subject. After spending an hour with our daughter, Megan said she could not see a reason for tutoring, just needed to focus more...show some gumption. At the time, that ended up being all she needed. Other tutors might have taken advantage of the situation and say tutoring was needed...feeding on vulnerability, but not Megan.
