“Rocco is one of the finest tutors I have ever worked with. My coaching needs were pretty specific: I was three weeks out from taking my boards, and I needed someone to break down concepts and help me study efficiently. That same night, Cambridge Coaching matched me with Rocco. Before our first session, he had me answer some in-depth questions about my resources, practice scores, and study habits. He taught me step-by-step how to study more efficiently. I started to retain greater amounts of information in less study time. He gave me strategies I can utilize for the rest of my academic career. Thanks to Rocco, my confidence and knowledge-base definitely grew. On top of everything, Rocco is one of the nicest people out there. He always checked in with me and provided the support I needed during a stressful time.”

“Rocco supported me throughout my course in Anatomy & Physiology. He provided in-depth explanations of the material, and applied the concepts back to my major. Rocco was organized and prepared so our sessions were productive. He had a list of high yield topics, kept a Google Doc of session notes and assignments, and annotated my class powerpoints. Cambridge Coaching admin were very kind and diligent. They searched for the best tutor, and I was extremely compatible with Rocco.”
Grade went from D to B+.
