R. was accepted early to the University of Pennsylvania. We’ve been very happy with the quality of your programs, the comprehensive nature of your offerings, and your responsiveness. Even though it was a very stressful time, I would say that our boys often enjoyed your classes. You have a talented group of teachers working for you.
Dear Duane,
I wanted to reach out and thank you for your revisions and comments on my two practice ACT Writing prompts over the summer. I am proud to say that I received an 11/12 on the writing portion of the test! Thank you again for you time and support. Without your help my score would not have been as strong!
Would love to thank Sam for all the wonderful help. I was struggling for a while in AP Statistics until he came along. My grades immediately improved once we started meeting. His method of tutoring is one that more people should learn!
The distance learning made the course a bit more challenging, but I really liked how the format and structure was basically the same as one that we would do in class, just on a computer.
Thank you very much, Lynn. It was very reassuring speaking with you. Thank you for pointing us in the right direction.
Sam is modest and understands the subtleties of competitive applications to boarding schools. With Sam’s focused and insightful help, and time flexibility, our time-crunched son completed the exam with an overall SSAT score in the 95th percentile and with a much more competitive balance between Verbal and Quantitative.
We spoke last summer about engaging a private tutor to work with our son. You recommended a couple and we engaged Cormac. I want you to know that Cormac was a fantastic recommendation! We’ve just gotten back his ACT score – a 33! Cormac was diligent and very patient, especially good at coming up with different approaches when our son was having a hard time absorbing a concept.
Lynn, you and your team are the best!
As anyone who knows me knows — I am highly opinionated. And, in my opinion, Carnegie Prep provides excellent academic guidance and support.
Your test prep team is so incredibly professional, capable but mostly committed to the students. I have felt a true partnership along the way of this insane process with you. I wanted to make sure you knew how grateful I am for your team! They have been more than amazing.
Jesse did an amazing job helping my son W. raise his SAT math score by 100 points!! W. has worked with another math tutor for quite some time and W. was getting frustrated with his math score. W. took the make-up SAT in February and he raised his math score from 700 to a perfect 800! Jesse helped him focus to achieve this score.
Thank you! T. is loving his senior year and is thrilled to be going to Colgate! As always, I will continue to recommend you and your team as my go-to, get-in-to-college secret sauce!
The SAT course was the key to unlocking his potential. This is a kid who truly struggled at school. His success will go far beyond easing the college application process. He is beginning to believe us when we tell him he can. His performance in all areas of life seems to be improving, and his confidence is growing. A parent could not ask for more.
Hi Marshall,
C. got a lot out of the class and really enjoyed having you as her teacher. She says you are “funny, awesome, a great teacher”! Just thought you should know. Thank you for all your effort.
Duane was incredibly helpful in preparing my daughter for SAT Critical Reading. After just a few sessions with him, my daughter strengthened her skills and the strategies he provided made her feel confident. Her score went from the mid-600s to an 800. She couldn’t have been more thrilled and is so grateful to have found Duane.
