We had an excellent experience with Bareena for both SAT and ACT preparation. She tutored my daughter for the SAT in 2021 and my son for the ACT in 2026. She is highly knowledgeable, organized, and exceptionally skilled at identifying areas for improvement while building confidence. Each session was engaging, productive, and tailored to my children's individual needs. Bareena has a remarkable ability to know when to push students to reach their potential and when to step back and let them build confidence on their own. Most importantly, both of my children felt well-prepared and significantly more confident going into their exams. I highly recommend Bareena to anyone looking for outstanding SAT or ACT preparation. read more

We worked with Bareena to help my son prepare for the ACT, and the results exceeded our expectations. He improved his score by 4 points. Beyond the results, what stood out most was how much he genuinely enjoyed the sessions. Bareena took the time to understand how he learns best and tailored her approach accordingly, rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all method. That personalized attention made a real difference in both his confidence and his performance. We'd highly recommend her to any family looking for a tutor who combines real results with a teaching style that actually clicks with their student. read more

Bareena is an amazing tutor, an expert in working with various learning styles and content areas. It is hard to find someone to tutor in AP Chemistry. My child excelled because of Bareena's support. She takes time to get to know her students as a people and as learners. She is compassionate, highly encouraging, motivational, and skillful in teaching. read more

I worked with Bareena preparing for my SAT during August before my junior year. Not only was her help for the SAT completely worth it, but it also let me get an amazing score on the PSAT a few months later which will (fingers crossed) qualify me to at least be a semi-finalist for national merit, and gives me a good chance of actually getting some scholarship money. Prepping for the SAT with Bareena before this absolutely helped, and is definitely the reason I scored that high. Cannot recommend her enough! read more

Bareena was a pleasure to work with. My daughter worked with Bareena on AP Bio and ACT prep. My daughter got a 31 on her ACT practice test and a 34 on her first and only ACT! We couldn't be happier with the results. My daughter also really enjoyed working with Bareena. She has an expert way of delivering the material and helping to clarify difficult concepts. I highly recommend Silverman tutoring. read more

Unfortunately, we found Bareena a little too late (about a month before my son's last SAT try) but what a difference between her and another tutor he had. She has been nothing short of amazing. Extremely thorough and detailed and encouraging. She masterfully gave my son that push that he needed to study without overwhelming him. Can't wait for my daughter to start tutoring with her. read more

Bareena tutored our daughter for her second SAT sitting. Bareena has a very good system in place -- very organized and efficient, good at identifying and focusing on the areas where our daughter needed help, and pushing her just the right amount. Bareena set a realistic amount of work and was flexible with scheduling, which was really helpful. Our daughter's score went up 70 points (from an already good score) with just 4 or 5 weeks of tutoring. Also, she really enjoyed working with her. Bareena is very professional and we definitely recommend working with her. read more

Bareena is one of the best tutors our family has ever experienced. I'd recommend her without a doubt! read more

Bareena Silverman helped me exceed my expectations on my SAT. I could not have done it without her and am so incredibly grateful for her expertise. She built up my confidence, taught me how to learn, and showed me important skills that will undoubtedly help with future learning. I learned invaluable test-taking techniques that helped raise my SAT score over 300 points. Bareena teaches for learning not memorizing. My grammar, reading comprehension, critical thinking, math knowledge, and vocabulary all improved greatly with Bareena's help and continue to help in school. I learned over 250 new vocabulary words over the course of studying with Bareena! She carefully crafts personalized homework each week, which allowed me to hone in on the skills that I needed to work on rather than doing general homework and learning what I already knew. Bareena has been tutoring for over 20 years and really knows how to work with kids individually in a way that works best for their personal growth. Her purposeful methods of tutoring built up my confidence and ensured that I never felt overwhelmed with studying. She is extremely kind and pushes students to try their hardest but also understands when students need a break and a lighter homework week. Bareena was even better than I expected, and I am so glad that I got to study for the SAT/ACT with her help! I would 100% recommend Bareena Silverman Tutoring! read more
