I wasted a LOT of money on extra resources that didn't help me understand HOW to answer the questions. She showed me how to read the question, understand what the question was asking, and how to answer it correctly. I went into my NCLEX with confidence and walked out a RN!! My only regret is that I didn't find her sooner! If you're on the fence about hiring a tutor, please think of it as an investment in YOU, and you're worth that, right?

Virginia is awesome for nursing students. At first I was kind of skeptical about paying for a…read moretutor when there are so many resources at the school that I can use and obviously paid for with my tuition. But then I thought it's an investment and how is paying for a tutor any different from paying for those ridiculously over priced books that I'm honestly never going to open again after nursing school. One thing about Virginia is that she offers lifelong techniques that can always be used. Not only does she tutor but she also offers "easy" non time consuming studying techniques and real tips on how to take and pass a test. She even gave us a practice test to show us how we may have been previously making mistakes which my have caused us an extra point. Her tutoring style is well structured and easily flows vs those (IMO) choppy all over the place lectures. I feel like I learned more in her 4 hour session than I did in the first 4 weeks of class. One of the things she said when we started the session was, if you follow her study techniques you can get a high B or A. At this point I'm thinking, yeah right, really, how? But make no mistake, with that statement that means that she's going to lay the foundation but YOU, yes, YOU, have to actually put in the work. She is awesome but please don't think that you'll just go to her session and that's where things will end and you'll pass. ABSOLUTELY NOT. Nursing school is hard so you still have to do your part. I have heard so many horror stories about med-surg and was so anxious at the start of this semester but after meeting with Virginia I feel so much more at ease. Needles to say on my first med-surg exam I got a 85.53%. Also note that this is my highest nursing school exam grade so far and my first time going to a tutor. Next up, the dosage exam. See you in 2 weeks Virginia:)

However, our sessions with MTL have left her feeling more confident, and excited to read. Her reading has improved and she graduated out of her intervention group at school.

Your child will progress and become an ethusiatic reader.

My daughter (a Junior) has enjoyed working with Everett to prep for the SAT. With just a month of…read morestudying with Ev, her score improved by 300 points from the PSAT she took in the fall. Ev is experienced and kind - and generous with his time and knowledge. My daughter is at ease with Ev and he's helped build her confidence for the test. Based on our experience, the other review sounds like a troll or a competitor posting false information. We look forward to continued work with Ev for her second SAT in March - and will absolutely have my son work with him in the future. While his hourly rate can seem steep, the 1:1 work makes all the difference and is worth it.

Everitt worked with two of my kids to prepare them for the ACT. Although he showed lots of…read moreexpertise and experience, it was fairly clear that his teaching strategies were ineffective and his prices far too high. My kids did about two and a half months with Everitt, usually meeting once per week. At the end of the two months, neither of them seemed satisfied with their results. After taking the test once, both decided that working with Everitt was "a colossal waste of time and money" and decided to resort to other resources. In truth, Everitt really didn't do much during the tutoring sessions outside of checking the practice tests he had assigned for homework. This means that a student could EASILY have the exact same experience studying on their own simply by taking practice tests and researching a few test taking strategies. In the end, both of my children did three-or-so weeks of tutoring at PrepMatters with a tutor that was admittedly more expensive (Everitt is still $$$) than Everitt yet helped my kids a lot more. Both took the test immediately after their few weeks at PrepMatters and both were satisfied with their scores! They took it one more time after that without going to a tutor and raised their scores even higher, both finished above the 99th percentile and eventually got into their top choices! To summarize, Everitt's tutoring was not helpful. Sure, he knows about the tests and has lots of experience tutoring, but working with him was unproductive, a waste of money, and did not help my kids reach their college goals in any way. Hope this helps and best of luck to you and your kids during the college process!

Dani of course worked herself out of a job as by the end of the year, my son was fully caught up. We appreciated Dani's style - friendly, kind and engaging, but firm and with high expectations. She is extremely well organized and contacted my son's teacher to make sure she understood the lesson plan and the direction of the class. It is not surprising Dani is a linguist, she is an excellent communicator and an excellent tutor/teacher. I highly recommend her.

I would recommend Tutor Troops to anyone looking to improve their ACT/SAT scores in preparation for college. Hasan sat down with our son initially to establish what course of action was better for him prior to proceeding with the tutoring session. I think that was very beneficial to him in the long term, as some students are better at Science than English, and if so, it's better to take the ACT. These, and other facts we had no idea of until we sat down with a professional tutor. Thank you Tutor Troops for your services, our family are highly appreciative and pleased.

Emma tutored me for the GRE and exceeded all expectations. She helped me greatly improve my score,…read moreand made me feel really confident during the test. Before she tutored me, I tried using Kaplan services. They were ok, but they did not have a personalized tutoring approach like Emma did. Emma's study tips, organization, and understanding of concepts is what separated her from the Kaplan tutors. Through my time with Kaplan, my verbal score only improved by 5 points, but with Emma, my score further improved by an additional 6 points! I was already confident in my quant skills, but even there Emma helped me increase my score by the few crucial points that separate top tier schools. Because of Emma's help, I feel confident about getting into my reach schools AND I have a whole new arsenal of study tips/habits to use not only for testing but for the rest of my academic career! My only regret is not choosing Emma first! Thank you!!!

Emma is an excellent tutor. The only reason I am not giving her 5 stars is because my GRE scores…read moredid not improve after our work together; however, I believe this is mostly because the GRE is a difficult test and I struggle with standardized testing. While I was searching for a tutor many people I spoke with said my target score was unrealistic, which was discouraging. Emma was always extremely positive and encouraging. In particular, I struggled with the quant section of the GRE and Emma helped me immensely. I am confident that I gained a great amount of knowledge from working with Emma, even though it was not reflected in my final score. Emma is extremely organized and and did an excellent job catering our sessions to my specific needs. If I did not understand a concept, Emma would explain it in a different way until I was able to grasp it. She is very patient and kind. I also loved that Emma was realistic about studying vs personal life. I work a full-time job and was not able to study for 30+ hours a week as other test takers may have, and she was very understanding about this. Emma will meet you where are you at and will not pressure you as some other tutors do. She knows there is already enough pressure when applying to grad schools! Although I am disappointed with my score, I still feel confident that Emma is an quality tutor.
