He helped me finetune my strengths and quickly identified my weak areas, giving me easy to understand frameworks for attacking them. Ben helped me gain the confidence and expertise needed to achieve my target GMAT FE score! In addition to his amazing instruction, I enjoyed working together on a personal level - Ben is encouraging, light hearted, and clearly cares about his student's success. No matter where you are in your prep, I highly recommend working with Ben!

When I contacted Ben I was stuck in the low 600s with a Q42-Q44.

Not only Ben knows the gmat content extremely well , but he has taken the gmat a few times with stella scores and He has a strategy for solving any type of question the test can throw at you. His method of working is very organized where you can track every type of question and identify weaknesses, which he will help you tackle one by one and you will see you score increasing in your practice tests Working with Ben in two months I was able to score 690 with a Q47 in the Real test. He was not just an hourly rate tutor he became my gmat coach, helping me with GMAT content and with concentration and relaxation techniques for the exam, and he kept motivating me to reach my target score.

We used Fusion Math and several different tutors to help my son conquer some algebra and geometry…read morechallenges. Every tutor was really outstanding at breaking down complex issues in a clear way and taking the emotional issues out of the equation. Even more impressive given that all our sessions were remote. Mark Batho is absolutely a pro if you truly need the best. Great people, too!

Great, caring tutors. Fantastic results!…read more My daughter ("M") loved the math tutor she had from 8th through 11th grade, but, come 12th grade, M decided to take "Honors Physics with Calculus" and "Honors Statistics" at the same time. She also wanted to bring up her math SAT score. Concerned that keeping up with M's classes would require too much work, her tutor recommended she switch to FusionMath (based here in Seattle). If you visit their website, you will see bios of all their current tutors. However, when I emailed the company to explain the situation, I said it would be great to get some recommendations from within the list. Mark Batho, the owner, emailed me back within 24 hours introducing himself and inviting me to speak on the phone, which we did shortly thereafter. He started out as a tutor himself, and it was clear from the start he was a very smart man and a highly committed educator. Although he said he had multiple tutors that could handle the job, he did recommend two, both of which were PhD candidates at UW in physics. M started with one shortly thereafter. They hit it off fabulously and M got A's in both of her honors math classes. Moreover, she raised her Math SAT score from 670 up to 730. M's tutor was personable, highly capable, and able to schedule evening and weekend hours, so M could do theatre in the afternoon after school. The owner, Mark Batho, is a delightful man and really seemed to care about how well M did. In total, I very strongly recommend FusionMath. (Fwiw, Mr. Batho also owns Uplift Writing - a writing tutoring company!)

Ben has really helped (and IS helping) my kids get through all 4 years of high school math classes…read more A direct quote from our now college-aged kid whose math comprehension completely gained positive ground: "He was so amazing. I literally wouldn't understand the math I was learning until he explained it to me in our sessions. He has a way of making it make sense." I can't recommend him enough. Our 10th grader is now doing weekly tutoring sessions with Ben and I know that he will too have a greater understanding of what most of us will say is one of the hardest subjects in school.

I had special requests since my son didn't really need help with high school classes and she was more than happy to accommodate. I asked Carol if she could help my son with improving his scores on the SAT (+200), help with writing personal statements, and help keeping him organized with deadlines for college applications. Carol did an amazing job assigning him homework and giving him direction on how to research schools, fill out applications, etc. I referred her to another kid on the soccer team that needed that extra boost. My son liked her and she was a great motivator and personable. I don't think I could have got through Senior year without her on our side- She was worth every penny and lifted the stress off my shoulders as a single mother that has never been through the college process. Thank you so much Carol! Brandon and Christine

Before the camp he had written a story that was rich in dialogue and he received a lot of praise for it, which made the suggestion of attending a writing camp welcomed.

He now proudly tells people in addition to being a math and science guy, he enjoys writing too.

My family has had the good fortune to work with Mazor Test Prep on tutoring for the ISEE entrance…read moreexam when my children were in 5th grade and applying to private schools, on the AP exams as they made their journey through high school, and on the SATs as they prepared for college. The proof is in their success-my kids scored in the high 80 and 90 percentiles on their ISEEs, were accepted to their private schools of choice, and earned 5s on AP Physics and Calculus exams. My son is a senior, and with Lisa's guidance, achieved a 1530 on the SAT, missing only one math question-no superscore, just one test. Thus far, he has not been turned down by any of the top-tier engineering programs to which he has applied. My younger child is now working diligently with Lisa to maximize his SAT scores as he prepares for college applications in the fall. What makes this all the more impressive is the fact that both my children have dyslexia and dysgraphia-school has not come easy for them. Whether working directly with Lisa or one of her expert team members, you can expect compassion, professionalism, flexibility, and a commitment to meet your child at his or level, emotionally and academically. Lisa and her team are exacting and demanding, but with an understanding that kids' anxiety levels and workloads fluctuate through the school year and need to be taken into consideration and adapted to. Working with Lisa, I felt supported as a parent, and more importantly, I knew that while my children were working hard, they too felt supported. My kids have tried preparing for standardized tests using workbooks and online/in-person group classes, but both report the one-on-one experience they have had with Lisa and her team to be the game-changer. Not only are Lisa and her team effective, they are kind! I have enjoyed all my interactions with them, and the kids do not balk when it is time to get down to work. They also feel motivated to get their work done between sessions, so they are prepared for their next meeting-with no helicoptering from me. This is how test prep should be.

I would highly recommend Lisa to any parent whose child is preparing for the SSAT (or SAT for that matter).

Since starting there, she's never complained about having to go to tutoring (which is A Big Deal) and in fact she's always in good spirits when she goes in and comes back out. On top of that, her MAPS math score that just came out was a 93 (an increase of 14 points from her previous score) and I've no doubt that Alyssa's help was a large part of the reason for that increase. I definitely recommend Alyssa and Liddane if you or your kiddo need a bit of extra help!
