Testimonials
In our students' words
“I worked with Vik after my sister had taken a class with him. He became a friend who I still communicate with to ask questions about which classes to take in college. He was an amazing teacher who really related to me and gave me information in a way that I could easily process. Vik actually also edited one of my entrance essays for me as a favor and it was a topic that my entrance interviewers asked me about twice. I loved the way he made the test so unintimidating. Math has always been tough for me but I learned that SAT math is not about memorizing complicated formulas but technique. Huge shift in mindset. Highly suggest and recommend!”
A in Business Calc
“This semester I had to take business calc and was terrified since I'm not that good with math. However with Francisco's tutoring he clarified and made calculus ten times easier with his explanations. He helped me with derivatives and specifically deriving euler's number and how to use the derivatives rules. I was able to understand what and why I am doing this for calculus questions. He just gave a clear and concise picture of calculus. I was able to end with an A in the class and now plan to have him tutor me in higher level math. I would recommend Francisco to anyone who needs help with math and especially if they're not good at math.”
“Finn truly made a difference for me. The way he broke down complicated concepts into manageable parts gave me so much confidence heading into the test. Throughout the time I worked with him, I felt like he was just as invested in my success as I was! The care and attention I got I really believe is unmatched and I cannot recommend him enough!”
“Vik's deep understanding of mathematical concepts and his clear explanations made even the most challenging problems manageable. Beyond that, his guidance in creating my college essays was amazing. He helped me express my ideas and present them in a compelling way. Most importantly he was patient and took time working through all the issues and details that comes with mathematics and college essays. Thanks to his support, I gained so much confidence and achieved my academic goals. I highly recommend him for anyone seeking both expert math tutoring and insightful essay coaching.”
1490 SAT
“This is Gabe from the course that Vik taught recently, and I just wanted to say a few things. Firstly, Vik was probably the best teacher I've ever had. When it comes to what kind of teachers I prefer, I like ones who have a good balance between humor and seriousness, and he struck that perfectly with me. More importantly though, I was able to get a score of 1490 on the SAT! The amount of doors this has opened for me are immense, and I couldn't be more grateful. I didn't realize just how much the class had prepared me until the day of the test. So, again, thanks for this all! And keep on teaching the way you do, because it's excellent!”
1280 → 1440 practice
“I just want to say, first of all, that my score jumped from an initial score of 1280 to a final practice test score of 1440. I am extremely confident walking towards the actual exam and am shooting to break through the 1500 ceiling. Vik was an amazing communicator and made sure to relate information to me in a way I could understand and relate to. He stayed extra time after classes to field questions that I didn't feel comfortable sharing in front of others. Amazing class that showed immediate results.”
