Gets You To Where You Need To Be

When I first started working with Peter for LSAT prep, I had already gotten an objectively good score - above a 160. However, I knew that wasn't where I wanted to be, so I began my sessions hoping to push my score into the 170+ range. With the LSAT, every point and every detail counts for so much more when pushing for higher scores, and Peter was always on top of every detail; even when I had a concept 90% of the way there, he was able to pick up on the 10% I was missing to give me a full understanding of the question and why I missed it. I worked consistently with Peter for months and, while there were some road bumps on the way, I saw consistent progress: after about a month of working together, I broke the 170 mark on a practice test. Eventually, 170+ scores became the norm, and anything below that was abnormal for my performance. Even after factoring in the seven or so tests I took before working with Peter, my average score over 60+ tests was almost a 171. When it comes to any performance, you don't rise to the occasion - you fall back on your day in, day out training. My consistent work with Peter is why I scored in the range I needed to come test day, and his eye for detail and thorough understanding of the material is why I improved consistently during our time working together. I know that Peter can help you get those extra 10 points, regardless of where your baseline is. Thanks Peter, appreciate all the help.

Got me from a 650 to a 750 - HIGHLY RECOMMEND !!!

I worked with Peter for around 7 months and cannot recommend him enough!! When I first contacted him, I had been getting mid 600's on my practice tests and was shooting for a 750. I was having a hard time mastering certain QUANT sections on my own and Peter also suggested working on Sentence Correction together because that's where I was missing the most Verbal questions. Over the next 8 months, we would end up working on every section of the test together and in hindsight, there is no way I would have gotten to a 750 without him. What I loved about Peter's tutoring, was rather than just tech me formulas or rules, he really took the time to teach me the concepts behind them. This was crucial for me because I had a lot of test-day anxiety and having a really deep understanding of the material was absolutely essential for me to calm my nerves to get through the test. I took the test four different times while working with Peter and I got a 660, 720, 740, and then finally a 750. Peter stuck with through the entire journey and really adapted his tutoring style to exactly what I needed at the time (for example, I needed to learn the concepts at the beginning, vs later on when I needed help with time management, vs the end when I just needed someone to help me fine tune certain skills). Once again, I cannot recommend Peter enough!

Your search for a tutor has ended.

It would be very difficult to find an LSAT tutor more dialed in to the preparation for the Law School Admissions Test than Peter. Peter has an incredibly strong grasp on the core skills that make a difference on the LSAT, and is excellent at knowing when and how to teach those skills to you. Without Peter I would not have scored in the 92 percentile on the LSAT, period. While the other test prep materials allowed me to get a grasp on the LSAT, Peter's tutoring is what allowed me to see the material from an entirely different perspective and take my abilities to the next level. As as soon as you have your first lesson with him you will understand the level of experience that Peter brings to tutoring, and if you are serious test preparation, I couldn't recommend him more.

Helped Me Get a Great Score

Peter helped me to get a great score on the GMAT. We focused on the verbal section of the exam. When we went over questions that I had answered incorrectly or found confusing, he gave detailed explanations that cleared up any confusion. Moreover, he also taught me about broader concepts that helped me to understand what to look for when answering questions. Also, his teaching style was not too rigid; he was able to adapt to my needs. Overall, I enjoyed my time with him and I am satisfied with the results that he helped me to achieve.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Peter helped me with both Quant and Verbal sections of the GMAT. He has extensive resources and clearly understands the material covered in the GMAT to be a supportive and dedicated tutor. After taking lessons with Peter, my quant and verbal scores jumped up drastically!

Extremely Knowledgeable and Effective Communicator

Peter has basically had to reteach me everything I thought I learned from a mass market program. I very much appreciate the amount of completely useful information that he give you for free with his first 3 hour lesson (at least 5 things that I could use to improve my score immediately). He has his program down and has mastered how to teach it to other. Warning, there is homework! I have booked weekly lessons with him - he is very much worth the investment.

Knows His Stuff

Peter taught me a way to check my answers to make sure they are correct that my prep course did not. He is extremely helpful and makes sure you understand every step of the way.

Learned a lot in a short amount of time

Great way to approach the data sufficiency questions on the GMAT that is not taught anywhere else (he made this way that's 100% correct every time).
