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.
Cormac was a fantastic recommendation! We’ve just gotten back G.’s ACT score – a 33! We are all thrilled!Cormac was diligent and very patient. I think Cormac was especially good at coming up with different approaches when G. was having a hard time absorbing a concept. We thank you for putting us in touch with Cormac!
Hi Dan! I got a 5 on the AP Physics Exam, which I am very happy with (especially considering where I began!) Thank you again for not only the excellent course, but also the extra help and encouragement I needed to keep with the test despite its initial difficulty.
Anya is a wonderful verbal SAT tutor. She tutored both my son and daughter. They only took the SAT once, scoring from 750 to 800. My children have different personalities, strengths, and learning/study styles. Anya easily adapted to these and made the time productive. Both my kids respected her and wanted to excel for her.
Amanda was an absolutely phenomenal tutor. I sent her my personal statement for medical school and almost immediately received her comments and suggestions. Amanda helped me transform a very good essay into an even better piece with a compelling story, an emotional appeal, and a very, VERY strong argument.
A big thank you to the team, and in particular to Amelia and Peter. My son just got back his SAT results – a 2290 (730 Reading, 770 Math and 790 Writing). The communication, professionalism and availability of your team gave my son the skills and confidence he needed. There is no doubt I will use your classes with my other children!
I knew the minute I met Boyi that her quiet confidence would be an inspiration to my daughter. I am proud to say that with Boyi’s help, my daughter scored a perfect 36 on the ACT! This will have a lasting impact on her life forever, and we are grateful to you for introducing us to Boyi.
Dan was very generous with his time (gave me 2-plus hours each time despite charging me for only 1.5 hours) and called me multiple times to check in. The Skype didn’t seem to make any difference, and I greatly appreciated his his time and his interest in helping me improve on the LSAT. Dan has an unparalleled level of enthusiasm.
We would like to thank you again for recommending Amanda for tutoring our daughter. She helped her immensely with her ACT, improving her score by 5 points from her prep ACT, giving her the confidence that she needs. Amanda is an amazing tutor, knowledgeable, friendly, gentle, punctual, overall a pleasure to work with!
Thanks for all your support. You have a great team, and we will be back with our youngest in a few years :).
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!
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.
Rick is the best. The kids adore him and he always goes the extra mile to help. He really cares and it comes through. My experience with Rick has been wonderful and I am very happy we made the decision to go with Carnegie Prep!
Mike was able to work within my son’s busy summer schedule to give him the help he needed to achieve scores that would be acceptable to the highly competitive schools. My son’s final scores were 800 on the SAT Math, and 36 on both ACT Math and Science. He was accepted Early Decision to Vanderbilt University.
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.
