Andrew, GMAT Student -
“Alex was extremely approachable and did a great job meeting me where I was at. He was able to pinpoint where I could improve, and gave me strategies for approaching those areas. I found his explanations of the answers much more helpful than those in any book, and his experience and library of info sheets were really useful. I'm so pleased with my experience. Everyone throughout the process was helpful, respectful, and encouraging. The tutoring was an invaluable asset in my retake studying plan.”

GMAT Student -
“Alex did a great job explaining concepts and helping me mentally prepare for the exam. He was very responsive and receptive. We used our hour-long sessions to work on problems and go over strategies. It was extremely helpful to have someone explain the problems I missed and teach me how to tackle similar problems in the future.”

Emma, GRE Student -
“Alex explained everything in simple, clear terms. After sessions, he emailed me the detailed review of our meeting and homework for next time. He was also accomodating and flexible. I could email him with questions and he always replied promptly. I could see a sizable improvement in my score at given intervals. Considering that I have not studied for a test with such broad coverage in the last twenty years, I would say that the three months of studying with Alex was definitely a game changer for me.”
Jacqueline, Executive Assesment Student -
“Alex was great at explaining the basics, which helped me understand more complicated topics very easily. He wrote everything on the whiteboard, and sent me notes after our sessions so I could review later on. I felt like he knew exactly what I was expected to know for my test, and was highly knowledgeable on the topics. The lessons were very productive.”
