The Right Tutor. Great Effort. Great Results.
Scott, 43 lessons with IraThe job of a tutor is not simply to present the material; rather it is to ensure that the pupil understands and can apply the lesson learned. This requires that the tutor be able to match his method of teaching and explanation to match the individual student's needs. I'm thrilled to say that Ira was able to do this with great skill. Though our daughter had fairly good mastery of many concepts on the SAT Math, she was often missing the "tricks." Ira was able to cut through her basic level...

The Right Tutor. Great Effort. Great Results.
The job of a tutor is not simply to present the material; rather it is to ensure that the pupil understands and can apply the lesson learned. This requires that the tutor be able to match his method of teaching and explanation to match the individual student's needs. I'm thrilled to say that Ira was able to do this with great skill. Though our daughter had fairly good mastery of many concepts on the SAT Math, she was often missing the "tricks." Ira was able to cut through her basic level of understanding and bring her to the next level. After she completed her first practice test, Ira confidently predicted that he could likely get her score to a 700. This is exactly what she scored on her first attempt. With regard to his work, Ira has been very professional and understands what it means to provide good service. He is extremely prompt at returning calls, emails or texts. We have never had an issue scheduling him, as he was always able to accommodate us. We never felt as if our daughter was rushed; he always took more time than the actual hour allotted and would ensure that she understood what was covered during each session. Ira often used humor to liven up what could otherwise be a tedious process; our daughter actually ENJOYS the sessions with him. At the same time, he could be quite serious, often unrelenting when trying to ensure that a concept was definitely grasped. We were so happy with him that we have continued to use his services as a math tutor for our daughter in Pre-Calc, as well as with our younger daughter in algebra. We would not hesitate to recommend him for any math tutoring. He is an excellent tutor. We are so happy we found him.

excellent foundation to build upon
Was able to explain effectively while keeping me engaged in the whole learning process. Tutoring session was not just another lecture and was instead more of an interactive lesson.

Excellent Math tutor
My son has been working with Ira to raise his math SAT score. He’s incredibly knowledgeable not only on a wide array of math topics, he understands the exam. He shares tips and tricks. He’s got a great sense of humor and my son is loving working with him. We’ll stay connected to Ira throughout senior year for when our son needs support for sure. Only regret is that we didn’t find him sooner!

Fantastic SAT Math Tutor!
We had an amazing experience with Ira as our child's SAT Math tutor! Ira is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and full of positive energy, making every session both engaging and effective. His humor, encouragement and examples kept our child motivated, and his teaching style truly made a difference. After working with Ira, our child's SAT Math score increased by 130 points! We couldn’t be more grateful for his expertise and support. We highly recommend Ira to anyone looking for a fantastic tutor!

Highly recommend
Ira is very personable and interactive and fun. He is very patient and engaged my hard to impress teen aged son. He is reviewing algebra 1 to test into honors algebra next year. We have limited time and Ira is prepared to do this in just 10 weeks. He understands our objective and has a okan to meet it.
