Great Tutor!

I needed to take the GMAT within 7 weeks. Matthew provided excellent guidance in helping me prepare for both the quant and verbal sections. His knowledge in the math principles and verbal strategies needed to succeed helped me quickly prepare for the test. He also provided necessary feedback to help push me to do better. I also appreciated that he was available all the time on e-mail or phone even after our meetings. Matthew truly became a source of information that I could trust. Under his watch, I was able to successfully take the GMAT and get a score in my target range on the first try. I strongly recommend Matthew as a GMAT tutor to anyone in the metroplex who wants someone who is willing, knowledgeable, and flexible on time/location.

Highly Recommended

I worked with Matthew on the GRE for a short month before my exam and reached my desired score. Having not taken any exams for a long time, I was anxious about tackling something like the GRE with such short notice. Matthew was more than up to the task of helping me and made the process not only manageable but also accessible. Matthew is equally kind and patient as he is extremely knowledgeable and professional. He knows these exams inside and out, and will construct a detailed plan to get you to your target score. I have no doubt that students of any age group and exam type will appreciate his lucid and flexible teaching approach. He makes high volumes of content seem approachable and gives great advice on everything related to the test - from breaking down the content to tackling the studying process to exactly what to do on test day to maximize your potential. He also gives great advice on what to look for in the masses of test preparation material out there. Matthew has the resources, attitude, teaching ability, and sheer knowledge to help you succeed. I highly recommend him.

Incredible tutor! Highly recommend!

I've met with quite a few tutors in my quest for the elusive 700+ score on the GMAT and Matthew has been by far my favorite. He is truly invested in his students' success and not at all in the tutoring business for the money. In fact, with his level of expertise and experience, he should be charging a whole lot more! Matthew knows the GMAT inside out and gave me countless insights about the test algorithm, study methods, ways to outsmart the system, tips and tricks, time management, what to do the day of the test, and detailed feedback regarding which questions weigh more and which ones can be skipped over. His extensive knowledge about the test cannot be beat. He and I worked primarily on quant but he still also gave me valuable advise about verbal CR and SC and the essay and recommended the most effective test prep resources. I've taken the test several times and each time he was extremely supportive and expertly assuaged my fears. He always managed to lift my spirits even when when I was most anxious and kept me pushing forward (with my disposition, that's no small feat!) My score went from Q39 on the first GMAC practice test to Q49 on the official test, and that's despite the fact that I have not done any math for the past 7 years. Matthew also provided me with valuable insights about MBA programs and MBA application process. All in all, I cannot recommend him highly enough!

"Matthew is the dream GMAT Mentor you're looking for"

Let me start by saying that I have incredible test and studying anxiety of which I attribute to my poor study habits in college. So needless to say, preparing for the GMAT to me has been about as intimidating a task as they come. Since my first phone call and subsequent meeting with Matthew, my anxieties began to dissolve as Matthew's power over the test material, his enthusiasm for teaching, and his ability to collaborate on a path to success came into view, immediately. Prior to our meeting, I had just finished a Manhattan class course and yet still felt completely lost as to how I was going to achieve a 700+ score. Matthew's teaching style is one that miraculously combines practicality in applying the material in and outside the test with an incredible patience that creates space for real learning. The importance of this to me can't be overstated as it's translated not only to a newfound complete confidence in my ability to achieve my target GMAT score (of which I'm not far off at all right not btw - mere 10's of points) but also to a self-confidence in myself in being able to attack and learn new material under a deadline (HELLO BSCHOOL NICE TO MEET YOU!). Again, Matthew's been at the center of that change, and I can't recommend him enough to GMAT test takers shooting for a 700+ score.

Great!

Really great and to the point! He helped me prepare for my interview in a really short period of time (lots of probability and combinatorics problems) and I got the job!

Great Tutor for Math SAT prep!

We love Matthew, my son is doing very well working one on one with him for SAT math tutoring. He is very easy going and easy to understand. We will continue the tutoring until my son takes the SAT test on Nov. 2nd.

Best Tutor You Can Find For The GMAT! Really Should Charge Much More!

Matt is an exceptional tutor. He's a master at the GMAT and other standardized tests, but more importantly, a master communicator. He listens very well, is able to size up his students and pin point where they are having set backs and is a great teacher. Hands down, one of the best tutors I've used. I paid over $100 per hour to other high speed GMAT prep companies and honestly--they didn't weren't as quality as Matt. Use Matt. You won't regret it.
