About Marc


Bio

I offer tutoring for standardized tests and academic coursework. I am a former Princeton Review teacher (both group lessons and tutoring) and have been tutoring professionally since 2003 (full-time since 2012). I received my BA from the University of Pennsylvania and MA from Georgetown University. I received a perfect score on the GRE in November 2010 (800/800/6.0 in the old scoring system) and stay up-to date on all standardized tests for which I tutor. I can't guarantee you similar results,...

Excellent tutor

Marc is an excellent tutor. He is very organized, very patient, and flexible. He is also very nice and was able to easily connect with and engage my daughter. He is very good at what he does and is very familiar with the structure and content of both the SAT and ACT tests. My daughter's math SAT score, which is what we hired Marc to work on, went up substantially after just 6 or so weeks working with Marc. She felt much more confident and competent when taking the test the second time. I highly recommend March for SAT and ACT prep.

Excellent first session

Marc helped to get my son off to a great start on his SAT journey. We searched through many bios before landing on Marc. He is in our area so we will have the option to do in person sessions if needed.

great tutor

Marc was very patient working with my son and his friend on their Sat prep. He explained questions very well. I will definitely use him again.

Helpful for Last Minute Studying for Exam

I have a pre-calculus final coming up. The math class was mostly spent learning Pre-Calculus concepts up until December where we then started to learn how to study for the type of questions on the final exam. It felt like I had to learn how to study just for the exam last minute because the questions are designed in a way we are not yet prepared for by only learning pre-calculus concepts. I had to learn what the questions are asking for. Marc was very helpful going over practice final problems. I feel more prepared for the type of questions that will be on the test.

Knowledgeable and patient

Marc teaches my 7th grader math. He reviews currently studied material and challenges him with interesting problems. Marc easily holds my independent/ reinvent-the-wheel thinker’s attention. Marc’s very respectful and knowledgable approach carries a lot of authority with my son.

Help with Pre-Calculus

Marc connected well with my son. He was able to break things down and explain concepts my son was having some problems with. He looks forward to continuing to work with Marc.
