Working with Cindy has made a meaningful difference in these areas as well as improving her self-confidence. Cindy's patience has helped build a trusting relationship that has been very important to our daughter. Cindy has guided her and given her practical support tools to help her understand the value of being organized and that she is capable of being successful in school. As a parent it's been wonderful to see our daughter feel more empowered and less overwhelmed. Cindy's support played a key role in her growth. Thank you for the work you do and having thoughtful, skilled people like Cindy on your team.

Not only is Ms. Karen excellent at her job, but she has an incredible, lighthearted rapport with my daughter. They get along well and Ms. Karen is great at keeping my daughter on task - even during fun summer months when she would rather be playing and hanging out with friends. My daughter has moved through multiple levels of Wilson's programming, primarily through Ms. Karen's tutelage and effort. The administrative side of the house is also easy to work with - we regularly get tutoring notes and billing is electronic. We are so happy to be working with this great company.

    I worked with Stefan on test prep; he was outstanding. The 1.5hr sessions FLEW BY!…read more Stefan is so fun and passionate about test taking strategies. He is so knowledgeable and is someone I wish I would have found earlier in my application journey. I am so grateful for his support! I loved having the whiteboard and he always sends the PDF of the notes that you cover in class. Stefan makes everything super easy to understand and very accessible. If you don't understand it, he will try to flip the concept on its head and reteach it to you. He is super patient! This has been my favorite test prep experience. I have tried it all - Manhattan Prep and other test prep companies. I only wish I found him sooner.

He objectively evaluated our son's strengths and weaknesses, identified gaps--especially in quantitative skills--and worked closely with him to address those areas. Stefan's deep knowledge of admissions and test prep ensured our son targeted schools that fit his profile and goals, and he provided invaluable support throughout the process. Stefan's professionalism and expertise made a real difference for our family. My wife and I would recommend him to anyone seeking high-level, personalized admissions guidance and GMAT prep.

    I worked with Tara for 1-month and saw immediate progress in my abilities. Tara is an effective…read moreGMAT tutor because he has thoroughly studied the test. One thing I struggled with prior to working with Tara was identifying what is actually being tested. I would just do the problems, get some wrong, get some correct, and then move on. Tara emphasized an error log and thinking about why I got something wrong, which really helped me. Tara helped me move my score from 42 to a 47 on the Quant section. His insights to Data Sufficiency questions were worth at least 2 of the 5 points that I added, bringing my combined score to a 710.

The EA is an alternative that many schools are using, but there isn't as much info and test techniques as there is for the GMAT. I purchased the official study material provided by GMAC. Still, after taking the EA, I found that the material and practice tests weren't as accurate a portrayal of a real exam as I had hoped, especially for the Quant section. After receiving my scores from the first exam, it was clear I'd need to retake the test and needed some help brushing up on my quant skills. I interviewed several companies that promised an increase in my score, but none took a personable approach until I found Tara. Tara took the time to understand what I needed, my history, and where I wanted my score to end up to get into one of my top choice schools. I didn't have a lot of time before my next exam, so Tara focused on my weaknesses, and we worked almost daily up until exam day. He shared many short-cuts and tricks to help get to the root of the question and eliminate the "noise." He provided many reference notes and made sure that I genuinely understood before moving to the next topic, always encouraging along the way. He is amazingly flexible as he was able to work about my schedule and meet early in the mornings. With Tara's help, I was able to increase my quant score high enough to get into one of my top choice business schools, and I would recommend Tara to anyone!

    Going into college entrance exam season, it wasn't clear to me what would be the most effective and…read moreefficient way of arming my twin teenage sons with the comfort and skills that would allow them to choose the right test and to perform their best. Each has his own strengths and weaknesses, and their study and learning habits differ vastly. Once Steve met with us and reviewed their baseline untimed scores, he easily guided each of my sons to the test that would elicit the best results, and he confidently assured that tutoring them together would not only meet each boy's individual needs but would enhance each other's learning, by virtue of the group process. Indeed, Steve was exactly right. He helped my kids to put in perspective the importance of these tests and to set goals commensurate with their college choice aspirations. His teaching style elicits discipline and engagement, without instilling undue stress and worry. He's calm and steadfast in his claim that if a person is willing to put in the practice and study time and comes prepared to tutoring sessions, he or she can incrementally improve. He makes the goal score feel accessible, and this helped to keep both of my kids motivated, hard-working and hopeful. The three of them worked together for 24 hours, over 12 sessions, and utilized a variety of materials, including prep books, websites, and group meetings to get them ready for the test. He tracked their progress, keeping me updated throughout, and though he worked with them together, he tailored the lessons to each of my kids. Now that both boys have sat for their chosen test, it's abundantly clear that Steve assessed them accurately, and guided and taught them well. My sons each reached their goal scores, one improving 3 composite points (4 with super score), and the other improving 6 composite points, to do so. Needless to say, both of my kids are pleased with the outcome, as am I, and I suspect this will open doors at schools they might not have considered. From beginning to end, and especially as measured by the results, Steve successfully ushered my kids through what could easily have been a stressful and demoralizing process. He simply understands these tests and how to master them, and we couldn't be happier to have benefitted from his expertise.

    Steve helped my daughter move from high-performing on practice ACT tests (33 and 34) to earn a…read moreperfect 36 composite score on her first try! My student was already doing well in Math and Reading, but yearned to improve in Science and English. Most other courses or tutors offered full on prep -- very costly and time-consuming. Steve assessed my student's specific needs and provided individualized coaching and resources to help her use her limited time wisely. After only two sessions (about 4 hours total) and some homework, my student's confidence was boosted. Beyond improving an already great composite score by 2 to 3 points overall, specific increases included 4 points improvement in English (from 32 to 36), and a whopping 5-point improvement in Science (31 to 36). Steve was meticulous, positive, and patient. He used a variety of materials, including websites, prep books, and lessons at my home. The resources he has to offer are up-to-date and not stale, which is important since the tests have changed over time. He kept detailed notes on my student's performance to help track improvement and keep me updated. Would definitely recommend.

    My daughter started visiting Henry Davis in 2015 (when she was in 2nd grade) on the recommendation…read moreof our educational psychologist. We were baffled by her inconsistent performance and frustrated by her really extreme resistance to even attempting math. Henry's belief that learning can and should be fun has been exactly what she needed. Henry Davis is far more than a tutor. In addition to working on foundational skills and number sense, Henry has helped our daughter enjoy doing math. When she struggles at school and cries "I hate math!" we can remind her that she loves math when doing it with Henry. His use of games paired with an understanding of how math anxiety affects kids has been invaluable in her learning. We have continued seeing him through the years and plan to continue indefinitely. In addition to tutoring for our daughter, we have done math assessment/testing and plan to continue doing so to monitor progress in flagged areas. Henry works well with my daughter's school, writing reports and/or connecting directly as needs. My son also sees Henry on a less frequent basis. While math is not a problem for him, he does work with Henry on the areas of weakness that sometimes prevent him from progressing. My son loves math and excels at it and seeing Henry gives him the opportunity to explore it in ways he doesn't get to in school. If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. We are very thankful to have found Henry Davis.
