David came in and was able to provide my son with strategy concepts and the confidence he needed to substantially raise his SAT score the second time around. He has shown to be very knowledgeable, supportive, and patient in his teaching ability as he took the time to thoroughly explain and give my son great tips on how to seek out the best answer to tricky SAT questions and clarify for him why one answer would excel over the others.
