I'm Matthew, and I've been helping students in the UK get into top American universities for years. My specialties include SAT, ACT, GMAT, and LSAT. I focus on on fundamental concepts, like reading comprehension and arithmetic, so that students can take the time they need to fully grasp these critical skills before test day. I also help students with their college and graduate school admission essays.

A little about me: I grew up in San Francisco and have been working in the intersection of learning and technology throughout my career. After graduating from Yale in 2007, I spent over five years developing test prep materials and adaptive courses for Knewton, both in New York and London, and I continue to work in education technology on the content development side. I'm a big proponent of learning through exploration and spend a little too much time/money traveling.
I make sure students fully understand what the questions is asking before they starting diving into calculations. The most dangerous thing is to start number crunching before you know what the numbers mean!
I focus on the fundamentals of reading comprehension so that students not only understand the passage but start to develop a lifelong love of reading.
