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.

“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.”
