Review for Mason M

Mason was the best tutor I could have asked for to study for the Series 79 (Investment Banking Examination). In the first minutes of our first session, he helped by crafting a personal plan that would end up making me pass on my first try. Mason is incredibly knowledgeable, calm, thoughtful, but what surprised the most is his empathy for me. He never judged me for not knowing or understanding a financial concept. He was truly eager to make me understand it. If you want to study for the SIE, Series 63, or Series 79, Mason is the tutor you need to pass on your first try.

Excellent Tutor for Series 79 Prep!

I worked with Mason to prepare for the Series 79 exam, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Their teaching style was clear, structured, and tailored to my needs. They broke down complex topics like valuation, capital markets, and M&A analysis into easy-to-understand steps, which made studying much more manageable.

Series 79 Tutoring

I had a fantastic Series 79 tutoring session with Mason. His background in investment banking gave him a deep understanding of my situation and the challenges I’m facing. He took the time to assess where I’m at, then mapped out a clear, practical plan to help me succeed. His explanations were clear and easy to follow, and he made the session feel focused and productive. I’m looking forward to continuing my sessions with him and building on the plan we started.

Amazing Tutor!

I can't thank Mason enough for all of his help. He has a unique ability to break down complex concepts in a way that's easy to understand (DCF, WACC calculation, etc.). Even though I'm still feeling nervous about the upcoming exam, Mason has helped me set realistic expectations and boosted my confidence with helping me create a proper structure. His support has made a huge difference in my preparation, and I genuinely appreciate everything he's done to guide me through this process.

Brilliant and effective tutor

Mason is extremely knowledgeable in investment banking and corporate finance and was very effective in review of the material for the 79. My scores improved 15%+ from my sessions with him. He explains the material in a way that's relatable and understandable. I would highly recommend hiring him as he is committed to your success.
