I've had one session with Archie so far and it was amazing. We discussed Discrete Mathematics and…read moreLinear Algebra. He put me a week ahead on the syllabus. Even though I was ill-prepared and late he was really nice about it (and HE was punctual). I can tell if he's not familiar with material he will research it and explain it to you. Since he's an instructor, he has a lot of great study tips too, and has experience with the things that work to help students learn. I asked him the same question a dozen times (more than once) and he was completely patient about it. He was so effective in explaining that I sort of ran out of things to ask about. Free tutors at school are nice to have, but there is a lot of value in having a private tutor like Archie just for you, who has experience and will remain patient if you're struggling. I am hoping to meet with him regularly and really looking forward to a much better GPA this quarter!

Math has never been my strong point, but Dr. Donnelly shown me how to break down each problem in a simple step-by-step method that made it seems almost easy. He is very patient, professional, and his calm, relaxed style of teaching made our lessons enjoyable. I ended up improving my math score by 23 percentile points. I could not have done this without Stuart's help!

I took the live online course for GMAT prep and found it very helpful. The instructor, Ravi, was…read morevery informative and to the point, and stuck to the important strategies. The online resources are helpful and they have a lot of practice tests and problems that you can use to study at home. Picking the right instructor is very important. I took a preview class with another instructor, and had 2 substitute teachers during the course, and Ravi was by far my favorite teacher. His teaching style really matches the way I learn best and I appreciated his directness with his students. Do your research and make sure you're picking the right program and right teacher for your learning style.

DO NOT GO TO THIS LOCATION!!!…read more I paid over $1000 for a GRE prep course and they completely messed everything up. They told me that 9 people were in the class, turned out to be 15. Also, a few of them were ridiculously...ungifted...and made the class unbearably slow for the rest of us. First problem: They did not give me online access to the practice tests which was a guaranteed part of the course. I set aside 4 hours to complete them and then couldn't get to the site! I contacted THREE phone numbers to try and get this resolved, and no one answered. I finally got a call back the next day and was granted access. However, I had no time and had to rush through the test, therefore getting a pretty low scores that was not reflective of my ability. THEN it told me that I would have to pay an additional fee to get my essay graded. No thank you, I said, and skipped that part of the test. Turned out, essay grading was supposed to be included in the price of the course. All the other students got theirs graded and I just missed out and didn't get that feedback. Called back again and they "fixed" the problem. Then my instructor mysteriously didn't get my score report on the 1st test so she couldn't go over my strengths and weaknesses with me. She told me that she would figure out what was going on and would go over it with me the next week. However, we were supposed to take the second test by the next class. How was I supposed to take the second test without getting feedback on the first? When the instructor finally went over my test with me, she decided to go over everyone's SECOND scores before she went over my first score - I therefore had to wait until long after the class had ended to get my first score back...when everyone else already had their second. I fell so far behind that I didn't take the next 3 progress tests. When I complained about this, I was offered no sort of compensation. They did not fulfill their contractual obligations and the only thing I was told was that I could take the course again if I was disatisfied. Well, yes...because I totally have that much free time on my hands between college, work, and applying to internships. I ended up buying a Kaplan book and scoring above the 90th percentile on both the quantitative and verbal parts of the GRE. I'm not sure if every location is as bad as this one - but it was bad. And their customer service was horrible. The instruction was ok - but overall I felt it was a waste of time. We would spend 5 minutes on 1 question to make sure that everyone understood - really you can only spend about a minute on each question when you take the test.

First, let me express my sincere gratitude to Clarissa Constantine for her individualized attention…read moreto my son's needs. He is a gifted student, which she recognized, and therefore focused her efforts with him on polishing his test taking skills. With just 3 hours of personal tutoring, which is a very reasonable investment of time and money, his practice ACT scores rose to his goal level. He ended up in the 99+%, with three of the four sections a perfect 36. Because he was enrolled (even in private tutoring), he had access to workbooks, practice tests and scoring summaries. Now, the downside. My son was initially signed up for a group class which was canceled. The website (run by the national PR), is very buggy and difficult. Even my hubby, with a CS degree from Cal, couldn't figure it out. I had to call for help A LOT. Zach took my calls, helped me out, organized the tutoring, and ended up saving me a lot of money. But, it was not without some pain and frustration. In the end, my son made his goal score, I saved money over the group class fee, and my son had access to all the tools he needed for self study. However, the benefits of those 3 private tutoring hours were tremendous. I highly recommend this individualized approach, which both allowed him to have free time to be a kid and reach his lofty ACT goals.
