"Test taking has never
been my strong suit and
my PSAT scores reflected
that. In addition, Math
was a major weakness
academically. When I
started working with
Alexandra, I didn't
believe that I could do
any better on the SAT,
but Alex was patient and
understanding and taught
me how to understand
difficult questions.
When I took the SAT, not
only did my Math score
go up 180 points, but I
went up 400 points
overall! I am very happy
with
the results of my
tutoring and would
recommend Alex to
anyone."

"Alexandra worked with
our daughter Isabella
during fourth and fifth
grades. Alex was more
than just a tutor, she
was a mentor and friend
who helped Isabella
unleash her intellectual
creativity while
fostering her personal
development.
Specifically, Alex
worked with Isabella on
reading, research and
creative writing. During
the period Isabella
worked with Alex, not
only did Isabella's
academic performance
greatly improve but her
self-confidence also was
enhanced. I cannot
recommend Alex highly
enough." |

"The results speak for
themselves: with Alex's
help, I achieved a
perfect score on the
SAT. What more needs to
be said?" |

I had never been
confident enough in
school to achieve my
potential.
Alexandra only tutored
me on the SAT, but she
pushed me. When I
saw how much I improved,
it gave me confidence,
and that crossed over
into my schoolwork. If
you want a dreadfully
average SAT tutoring
experience, go ahead to
one of those big places;
but if you want someone
who makes it exciting,
who you look forward to
seeing each week, who
takes the time to fit
her tutoring to your
needs, that person is
Alex. She was on my side
rooting for me during
the entire process, and
her words of
encouragement were with
me during the entire 3
1/2 hour "marathon" that
she calls the SAT.
Working with Alexandra
was a wonderful
experience. |

Alexandra has not only
the intelligence, the
understanding of
academic material, and
the teaching skills, but
also the engaging
personality that makes
for a truly successful
tutorial. Clients
consistently praised her
for her energy,
professionalism, and
results. She was a
pleasure to have on my
team. |

"Alex brings humor,
empathy and intelligence
to SAT preparation, and
she gets results. By
developing a close
working relationship
with my son, she
delivered a more
positive and worthwhile
experience than I had
ever imagined possible.
Tutoring became an
opportunity to fill in
some knowledge gaps,
strengthen memory skills
and build test-taking
stamina; and my son’s
scores improved
dramatically from the
PSAT. Alex is
amazing.

Alex
is a first rate tutor.
She has successfully
worked with many of my
counselees, helping them
dramatically improve
their scores and gain
entry into the most
selective colleges.
She's dynamic, smart,
super funny, and
understands the high
anxiety today's college
applicants face. I
recommend her with total
confidence. |
