I want to thank Sam for his help tutoring my daughter for the ACT. She was able to raise her overall score 4. We were thrilled! I was especially impressed with her improvement given the number of times they met. Sam quickly assessed where she needed to focus her attention and was very deliberate about what they covered in each session. Thank you!
Laurie did an excellent job preparing our daughter for the SSATs. She also tutored her in Algebra where was she was among the top students in her class. She was delightful to work with and fully committed to the success of our daughter.
After three sessions with Caroline, Z’s scores increased by a total of 230 points, 90 of which were in Math. Caroline’s style, knowledge, and motivation are impressive. She gave Z the confidence she needed to persist and achieve, sometimes equally as important for these young adults facing school stressors. A parent’s dream.
We are thrilled to have found Sam as a tutor. My daughter has always identified as primarily an athlete, but Sam showed her that she can be a successful student as well. Her scores improved as well as her confidence in her academic self!
I just wanted to thank you guys so much for all you’ve done for me during the SAT course. Throughout the SAT course, you guys have been so incredibly helpful in preparing me for the test. Even in a group class, you managed to make us feel like it was a one on one session, and for that, I cannot thank you enough.
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!
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.
Jerry, your mothers direction and support from day one with subject test strategy, pairing my son with Caroline for ACT prep and essay editing, you coming out of retirement to share your wisdom, providing a few other amazing tutors for the little extra push, and suggesting we find an outside counselor that’s a fit were all individual acts that amounted to something big!!!!
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!
My daughter did so well with Jesse (an 800 on her Math Level 2!!!). He has done an amazing job building her confidence. I can’t say enough. In fact, my daughter said the saddest part about being done is that eventually she will have to give Jesse up. She is taking AP Multivariable Calc next year just to keep him!
Our daughters have taken many of your prep courses over the years. A. needed a boost to her scores, so you suggested that she meet with Jerry. Through all of her hard work and your son’s coaching, she was so happy to find that she improved her Math score by 100 points.
Good Morning Dan! I wanted to reach out and let you know that B thought you were terrific. He came away saying he thinks you’re a great teacher. Hopefully that will play out with his AP Physics score. Fingers crossed and thanks so much.
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.
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!
