I had a fantastic experience during the ACT course. I was provided with lots of resources to practice, and I also had the support of my teachers throughout the entire process. Each student was given the personalized attention that he or she needed in a classroom environment. I can not thank you enough.
I just read the essay. Twice. I am beyond blown away and so moved. Authentic, powerful and real…Personal and serious. I love it so much and so does my daughter. What an incredible professor you must be.
Dear Austin and Marshall,
I decided to take the SAT again in May because I thought I could improve my math score. I got my score back today – 2400! I am beyond happy, and wanted to share the good news, because all of your help made that score a possibility. I thank you for helping me achieve the perfect score! Thanks so much.
After attending several of Kristen’s SAT prep courses, I can confidently say that she is an absolutely fantastic teacher. Kristen’s clear lesson plan and engaging personal style make learning vocabulary a breeze. Moreover, her friendly demeanor engenders trust within her students, which serves to keep them engaged and motivated.
We can’t thank you enough for recommending Max as a tutor for our son. Our son has so enjoyed working with him in preparation for the PSAT. He is an outstanding tutor, both in his knowledge base and his interpersonal skills. He demonstrates an excellent balance of empathy for the student, encouragement toward the student, and exhortation to work hard.
I attended Matt’s AP World History class on Sunday and really enjoyed watching him work. His style is very deliberate and straightforward, which makes covering such a wide range of material manageable. Moreover, he has a great rapport with the students. He’s unequivocally one of the best teachers that I have encountered to date.
Every person Carnegie Prep has sent, from John (who helped me be the only girl in my class to get a 5 on physics!!) to Anya (who is the only reason I’m actually getting supplements done) and now Jesse, who finally is making me feel like I have a grasp on math, is so genuinely helpful or nice!
I have great news! I have accepted my admission to Yale’s Class of 2020! I am very excited about this, as I know Yale is the best fit for me. I can’t thank you and the other Carnegie heroes enough. I really couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you. John, Rick, Marshall — you guys rock.
My son’s composite ACT score improved 5 points from his pre-ACT to his 2nd ACT test. Lynn Carnegie is fantastic and really listens to what her clients need. My son first took the ACT Blast, and Lynn helped match him with great tutors along the way to hone in on his areas of weakness without sacrificing areas of strength.
I wanted to reach out and let you know that my son thought you were terrific. He was not super psyched that I ‘made’ him take this prep course and that he is now faced with taking the exam this weekend instead of going to a concert that he had his heart set on. Despite that fact pattern, he still came away saying he thinks you’re a great teacher.
A huge thank you for encouraging us to enroll C. in your prep classes. SAT scores were posted today and she did amazing. I think that’s pretty awesome, and we are really grateful to Rick, who not only made this rather painless, but infused some fun into it.
Thanks so much, Lynn! You and Kyle have been such an incredible part of this journey and we cannot recommend you and him highly enough. Kyle is an outstanding tutor because of his incredible ability to teach but also because of his personality. He somehow combines being a teacher, advisor, and friend to both the students and parents in a way that makes the test process quite civilized.
James was absolutely AWESOME for Latin. I can’t say enough good things about him!
I cannot overstate how valuable the skills I gained while tutoring as an educator and mentor have been in medical school. I am so grateful for my experience as a tutor and could not be more excited to have chosen a career where kids and their families will continue to be the center of my work.
I wanted to tell you how highly we thought of Britt, not just in comparison to other tutors. She was cute and bubbly and upbeat. She gave B the confidence that B needed.
