Great news for B!!! He got a 33 (up from a 26 in Dec when he took it unprepped)!!!! We can’t thank you enough for all of your assistance…..you really have a great system with great prep materials – so glad that we made the effort to have B attend the session!! High five to Carnegie and all of its awesome tutors – you guys are amazing!!
I’d like to thank you again for teaching our class. It sounds impossible to effectively teach a class of exhausted high school students running on empty from a full school day and sports, but your class was very enjoyable and you kept us all awake! Thank you for giving me the tools to excel on the AP test.
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.
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.
Caroline was truly wonderful. She helped my daughter’s scores improve tremendously on the SSATs (on the actual SSAT, she scored an 80% percentile on her math – far above where her practice scores had been when she started with Caroline and the area that needed the most improvement).
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.
Hi Meg!!
I’m thrilled to report that J. got a 780 on the [Chemistry] SAT Subject Test!!!!!! OMG! Awesome!! Thank you so much for all of your help! He’s so psyched. Thank you so much for all of your work with him. Clearly, it all paid off!!
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.
I just wanted to touch base to let you know that things are going very well with all of my son’s tutors. Hunter, in particular, has been incredible. He has tremendous insight into how to work with a learning-disabled student. He completely changed his strategy with my son when he was worried that my son’s frustrations would affect his moral. I am so impressed!
My son got his SAT scores back: Critical Reading 740, Math 800, Writing 730. Austin did an amazing job getting him prepared! They went out of their way to spend extra time with him through phone calls and help after class and were genuinely concerned about his performance. Thanks again for all your continued help!
I can’t say enough good things about my son’s tutoring experience with Carnegie Prep. His test scores went up significantly, but what I think is even more important, he went from feeling insecure and overwhelmed to having a level of confidence that has spread to his current studies as well. The pairing of Kate for English and Mike for math is a combo not to be beat. Their “you can do this” approach instills confidence and brings back pleasure to the learning process.
Hey Austin,
I just got my scores: a 34 on reading, a 35 on writing, a 35 on science and a 36 on math! I just wanted to say thank you for all the help. Your class was awesome!
Hi Austin,
I just wanted to thank you again for all your help with the SATs. Getting an 800 in Math was awesome! Those killer packets and plug-in-number strategies were great practice and I did not have any surprises during the test. Thanks again for making the SATs less stressful.
Anya was an exceptional tutor for my son J. She cared about him in a way that almost felt like family. With her dedication, brilliance, cleverness and humor, my son bonded with her and did his best work. The test results were excellent. I cannot recommend her more highly.
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.
