Ryan Judkins is extremely communicative and organized, providing immediate feedback on sessions. Even his invoices are well done making electronic payment easy and seamless. My daughter didn't always apply herself but in the end she really pushed and Ryan was there to keep her going. Her scores rose in all categories and she got to a comfortable score which was terrific. He gives very concrete strategies and really understands the SAT mindset, particularly the verbal side. Highly recommend Ryan and his team.

From the owner: At Bootstrap Tutors, our mission is to offer the highest quality of tutoring for academic subjects,…read moretest preparation, and college admissions. All of our tutors are experienced professors and teachers, not college students with high test scores. We're founded on the core beliefs that there is no substitute for hard, one-on-one work with an expert teacher and that education should be radically transparent and inclusive. We don't take shortcuts, because shortcuts don't work. We teach our students to master their subjects from the core concepts up. Every step along that long road is necessary, but we'll be with you all the way. We're called Bootstrap Tutors because "bootstrapping" typically refers to starting a self-sustaining process, and that's our goal. If we do our job right, soon you won't need us. We offer free consultations and straightforward rates and policies. We're a small business based in Somerville, Massachusetts, but we also provide virtual tutoring.

HSA tutoring is a fraudulent service…read more Dont be blindsided by how they market themselves on the website as being top tier Harvard students or the fact they only employ the best for tutoring. which is a lie they employ any homeless person and brand them as high achieving Harvard students. The reality is they employ individuals who don't care about tutoring. An even less about you as the client. All the agency is interested in taking money from clients. I failed my assignment after taking up a tutoring service with HSA. Yes you heard right failed. Yet they claim they are Harvard rising stars. I was assigned a tutor a month before my assignment was due which was very reasonable. however, the tutor they assigned me didnt respond to my emails for weeks and only contacted me couple of days before my assignment was due to fit me in at 8pm at night. What a complete joke of a service !!! Honestly HSA is a con, stay well away from this place, other wise you will be deceived. Take your kid to a reliable tutoring service !

She worked with three different tutors throughout the package, Christine, Daniela, and Iman. They were all great and very communicative in terms of scheduling, and so was the HSA coordinator team. Did an outstanding job of listening to all feedback and making any needed adjustments, and the one time an online session was required due to scheduling, everything went super smoothly. Iman especially is outstanding! Our daughter made great strides working with her, getting through tons of material, honing testing skills, and building the kind of confidence that can really make or break the big day. She's amazing at giving day and week of prep advice above and beyond pen and paper. Thanks for all your hard work, HSA Tutoring!
