About Hurley


Bio

I specialize in helping students ace the ACT, SAT, GMAT, GRE and LSAT exams.

I am professionally trained in teaching and tutoring for the ACT, SAT, and GMAT Exams and scored above the 90th percentile on each of them. I have recently started tutoring for the LSAT exam as well, and this currently accounts most of my tutoring hours.

Call me crazy, but I've always liked standardized tests, seeing them as a fun challenge, kind of like a word search, or a Sudoku puzzle. And we all know how...

I specialize in helping students ace the ACT, SAT, GMAT, GRE and LSAT exams.

I am professionally trained in teaching and tutoring for the ACT, SAT, and GMAT Exams and scored above the 90th percentile on each of them. I have recently started tutoring for the LSAT exam as well, and this currently accounts most of my tutoring hours.

Call me crazy, but I've always liked standardized tests, seeing them as a fun challenge, kind of like a word search, or a Sudoku puzzle. And we all know how important these test scores are today for aptitude assessment, college admissions, and scholarship applications. I spent two years working for a professional Test Prep company, so in addition to knowing the material, I know the tests, and I know the methods that have been proven to raise test scores.

I like the subjects I teach and I pass that enthusiasm on to the students. I have a knack for being able to explain concepts so that the students "get it." I'm flexible and adaptable, customizing my tutoring to the students needs.

I look forward to working with you!

Need some last-minute help before the MME in March? I can help! I've been trained to know where the points are, and I've been teaching and tutoring the ACT for years.

I can show you how to recognize the questions types and answer them correctly and more quickly, so that you don't run out of time.

Excellent Tutor!

Hurley is an excellent tutor. He is always prompt when arriving to the tutoring sessions with my son. He is very professional and knowledgeable, and I feel very comfortable having him work with my son. As a managing editor who is always analyzing details, I understand and take notice of the little things that matter, such as the soft skills (interpersonal skills, efficiency, promptness, follow-up, rapport with the student, etc.). Hurley has exhibited all of these qualities and more, and it is a pleasure having him as a tutor. I highly recommend Hurley, and I look forward to him continuing the tutoring relationship he has established with my son, which has provided him with the confidence he needs to master Algebra 2, Statistics, and Physics. Great tutor!!

Great Tutor

I am very pleased with Mr. Hurley's tutoring sessions with my son. He is very patient and explains things well to my son. I am really looking forward to seeing my sons outcome on the practice test this Thursday to give me a better analysis of how the tutoring is going thus far. Again, Mr Hurley is a great tutor whom I would recommend to others. Thank you!

Very Knowledgeable and Personable Tutor

We contacted Hurley to help my daughter with ACT Testing. She needed a few tips and a useful strategy for each section to improve her accuracy and time. Hurley was very personable and made her feel comfortable immediately. They reviewed each section and he personalized his lessons for her specific needs. He came prepared and after each lesson he gave her a goal to work towards for the next lesson. His warm and outgoing personality made it conducive for her to ask questions where she needed to. His personal experiences and family life also add to his genuine interest and knowledge in helping his students. He was very accommodating to our schedule as well. I would highly recommend Hurley as a tutor.

Great math tutor.

Hurley is always punctual yet flexible. If you want someone who is mature, responsible and patient, Hurley is the one! In fact, Hurley is the only tutor my picky 15 year old son has never complained about. I would highly recommend Hurley to everyone.

Great tutor and great person

Hurley has been working with my children for 3 years now. He is dependable, knowledgeable and works really well with both my kids, both of whom have very different learning styles. Hurley has helped them through a variety of levels of math and is beginning to work with ACT preparation with them. I highly recommend Hurley as a tutor. In addition to being a great tutor, he is a family man with successful children, and is an overall great person, caring and kind in addition to being patient with the kids. Also, I really appreciate that he is very flexible with scheduling. With life being so busy, this is important for both involved parties.

Mr. D hurley was a great tutor to my son!

Mr Hurley, Thank you for tutoring my son, and thank you for being available in such a short notice of time. Mr. Hurley was understanding of my son needs and work very closely with him, even though we only had two weeks before his scheduled SAT test. I appreciated that Mr. Hurley made time and worked with him on all the different areas to prepare him for the test. He understood my son's limitations and took the time to explain the math, reading and essay to my son. Thank you, Mr. Hurley, your services were just what he needed and if any of my children need tutoring in the future, I will contact WyzAntt to utilize your services again. Thank you!
