Spectacular and Recommended ACT Tutor!
Nancy, 8 lessons with ZakiyZakiy tutored my daughter for the ACT. The results were nothing short of spectacular. Zakiy is incredibly smart, has a lovely disposition with parents and students, is prompt and communicative, and most importantly, clearly knows what he is doing. He is strategic in every aspect of his tutoring for the ACT, which is exactly what we needed and what hooked my daughter into the plan. She never complained about the tutoring sessions -- she saw the value immediately. Result: 7 point...
Hi, there!
I'm a graduate of Amherst College where I studied math and economics while also earning a certificate in Culture, Health, and Science. Outside of the classroom, I researched the impact of 19th and 20th century lead mining in Scotland on adverse social outcomes. Today, I spend most of my time (when not tutoring) thinking about education policy and curriculum design and volunteer as a reading specialist for 2nd and 3rd grade readers.
Through my 5 years and over 1,000 hours of SAT...

Dedicated, Patient SAT Tutor
Zakiy is an excellent tutor. He is patient, provides detailed explanations when working through problems and gave helpful techniques to apply during the test. I felt a lot more confident heading into the SAT and highly recommend Zakiy to anyone who wants to take a more strategic approach to taking the SAT.

Knowledgeable and patient
Zakiy has a very calm and professional demeanor. He was able to quickly adapt to my daughter's needs and create a plan for building up her math skills. He is very good at explaining concepts, according to my daughter.

Very knowledgeable
Although it was an introductory session, he was very detailed and provided excellent tips and strategies. My daughter was very comfortable working with him and is looking forward to more sessions.

Flexible, helpful, and Talented
Zakiy has been so positive for my son. We were working on a goal for his SAT (which he took last weekend). My son came home from the test and said that he felt confident that he scored almost perfect on math (he said he knew every single question). Zakiy helped him gain confidence and prepare him for the parts of the SAT that he lacked in. Also during one lesson he needed help with Physics and Zakiy went out of his way to try to help. We will continue to use Zakiy when needed in the future. Thank you for being awesome!

ACT Prep
Zakiy is a confident and enthusiastic tutor. My son felt good about his experience and looks forward to working with him further. I only wish we had more time as the test is less than 1 week away.

Positive Experience. Helpful Tutor
Strategies, and attention to areas of problem solving that I didn't think of before. This was a helpful and informative lesson. Zakiy knows the material well and has useful strategies. Thank you.

Top-notch
From the moment he arrived in our home until the moment of his final departure two weeks later (it was a rush assignment), Zakiy was all business. No idea how our daughter did on the SAT, but the two of them worked very, very hard together over a dozen hours of tutoring.
