Series 6,

Series 6

I have vast professional experience, spanning more than 30 years, in the securities industry doing investment banking, trading bonds--including credit derivatives--and options. I do private tutoring, in person and online, for clients who are preparing for the FINRA SIE, Series 6, 65, 26, 7, 66, 24, 63, 57, and 4 qualifying examinations. My colleagues/clients have found tremendous value in my tutoring methodology.
Series 63,

Series 63

I am a bond specialist by profession and hold the Series 7 and the Series 66 registrations with FINRA. The Series 63 is the Uniform Securities Agent State Law exam. This exam is designed to qualify candidates as securities agent within the States of the USA. The Series 66 is the Uniform Combined State Law exam and qualifies candidates as securities agent and investment advisor within the States. So the series 63 is part of the series 66 and subordinate to the series 66.
Series 65,

Series 65

I am an Investment Advisor with the series 66 license. This is a larger license than the series 65, and the series 65 is contained within (or is a part of) the series 66. I teach a series 65 class.
Series 66,

Series 66

I currently hold the FINRA Series 7, 66, and 24. My practice consists primarily of negotiating credit derivatives, an options platform, and private placements. I have many years of experience in preparing brokers for these exams. The series 66 can be a tricky exam whether you take it before or after the Series 7. My students find my method easy to follow and quite effective.
Series 7

Series 7

I am a former bond specialist at a NYSE firm and have the FINRA series 7, series 63, series 66 and series 24 registrations. I have a comprehensive knowledge of general securities as a rep and as a principal. The series 7 exam tests a great deal about municipal bonds and options. These require close attention and certain techniques (which I will teach you) to navigate successfully. I can teach you to move swiftly and correctly through the exam. I also have materials and real life experiences to share as I teach you the industry.

Highly Recommend!!!

Great at assessing current knowledge, and breaking down difficult concepts into digestible pieces. Keeps focus on overall test rather than over teaching certain aspects. Highly recommend!!

Russ, 2 lessons with Carlyle

Expert Knowledge

He definitely knows the information and can communicate/teach it thoroughly. I’m confident that with his sessions I’ll pass the 66.

Series 24

Carlyle has been extremely helpful as a Series 24 tutor. He explains challenging information in an easy to understand way with real life examples. He is patient and takes the time to answer questions and go through practice finals. I will continue to use Carlyle and am confident our sessions would lead to mastering the exam.

Patient and Thoughtful!

Carlyle was instrumental in my passing of the series 7 exam. He was able to meet with me multiple times before my exam, and was patient and thoughtful in our study sessions. I would recommend Carlyle to anyone. His knowledge of the material is vast and comprehensive. I would not have passed my 7 without him!!

Connor, 5 lessons with Carlyle

Incredible tutor!

Series 65 exam. Got to the important points quickly in a way that was easy to understand. I got more out of my hours with him than I would have from reading the entire training book. Highly recommend!!!

SERIES 7 savant

Carlyle is a master in the series 7 testing world, definitely cleared up a ton of the more difficult issues and although only had 2 sessions.. I wish I found him earlier, as he was very helpful in getting me to pass. His style was getting you to understand the material as opposed to just getting the questions right. Top choice on this app no doubt.

Excellent Tutor

I passed my Series 7 the first time I took it in large part due to the excellent tutoring I received from Carlyle through Wyzant. His thorough, relatable, and real life explanations of complex concepts such as options, characteristics of bonds (municipal and corporate), and SEC/FINRA rules and regulations helped me to comprehend these concepts much better than any course program materials and resources I paid for. I highly recommend Carlyle for Series 7 tutoring and I believe whole heartedly that his tutoring gave me the advantage and confidence I needed to pass the Series 7 exam the first time.

Series 57 Exam

Carlyle and I had 3 sessions together. My score on the Series 57 was a 66 on my first attempt, so I wanted make sure I did whatever it took to pass the second time. There are not many tutors for the series 57, I definitely got lucky finding Carlyle. He explains the concepts in detail, but more importantly he helps you think your way to the right answer. This test is hard, and Carlyle definitely helped me take it to the next level. There is no substitute for studying, but I definitely recommend having a few sessions with Carlyle, especially if you need improvement in a few areas.

Review for Carlyle W

I am thrilled to write a review for Carlyle. I partnered with Carlyle to tutor me for the Series 24. Carlyle was very easy to schedule, he broke down the material in a way that was easier to comprehend and replicate on the exam. He is personable and extremely knowledgeable of the securities industry. If it was not for him, I would not have passed! Recommend a 10/10.
