My daughter’s SAT verbal score improved more than 100 points after working with Robert (about 8 sessions). Her SAT verbal score reached above 700, even though she is not a good reader/writer. Robert is knowledgeable about various problem-solving strategies and is very skilled at teaching them. In addition, he is very easy to talk and accommodating. We are very happy with him!

Jesse tutored my son for the SAT Verbal portion. He was a fantastic teacher and within a few sessions in a few weeks, my son was able to go from 670 to 700 and then to 750 score. Jesse was quickly able to understand areas my son needed to focus on and he worked on improving those. I would strongly recommend anyone looking to get help with SAT tutoring.
