Her tutor was patient, organized, and did a great job explaining things in a way that made sense. They took the time to figure out what she was already doing well and where she needed more practice, then came up with a plan that really worked for her. Scheduling was easy, communication was always clear, and the whole process was stress-free. Best of all, she ended up with a great SAT score! I would definitely recommend Magellan Tutoring to anyone looking for SAT prep.

1550!! Whaaat. I am still in shock that your tutoring for Jacob produce a huge jump of 180 points…read morein just a couple months. The sky-high score is beyond what we expected-- 60 points higher than even his highest practice test. What you've given to my son cannot be cannot be quantified in a test score. You've given him a sense of academic and intellectual pride that he will carry lifelong. You've given him the confidence and validation that if he puts his mind towards studying consistently that he can achieve his goals. You were consistently reassuring towards him throughout the tutoring sessions about his capabilities, far more than I was even as his mother. The knowledge that you gave him is only overshadowed by the confidence you instilled in him. I still can't believe that he achieved the score and overall it wasn't a giant investment of time, just sessions once a week with not much homework in between. Your sessions with him were clearly very effective, as Jacob even quoted you upon leaving his test and used so much of what you taught him to power through. You taught him the underlying strategies and concepts which was incredibly important because the actual test did not look that similar to the official practice tests and so he really had to extrapolate from what you taught him fundamentally. We have had a few rough years with Jacob with respect to him realizing his full potential academically and grappling with his own learning styles and this completely turned things around for us as a family and for Jacob as a student. Jacob wasn't the kid anyone would predict a 1500+ test score from--- and here we are: at a 1550. It's like a complete 180 change in him and how we view him, the equivalent to what he jumped on his test score. How meant-to-be. Our gratitude is endless!!

Anthony is a wonderful tutor! I worked with him to improve my GRE quant score. Working on a very…read moretight timeline, he helped me improve my score by 9 points in only a few weeks and a few sessions. Aside from being incredibly smart as others have noted, Anthony has a gift for quickly diagnosing his students problem areas and creating a tailored tutoring plan. He not only helped me narrow the gaps in my math skills, but also helped me understand the test, why I was missing certain questions, and the strategies to be more successful. He provided high-quality resources for each session and was, overall, a wealth of information! I also appreciated his candidness, humor, and flexibility throughout the process.

We came across these ladies at a Holistic Health Fair where I learned what a Doula was and what…read morethey do. Fast forward about a year later, we were expecting our first child! The ladies gave us such a good lesson that we didn't hesitate to call them and get a contract in place for Labor and Delivery and Post Partum support. Best decision ever! From the time they take you on as a client, they were very responsive and support in a truly non-judgy way. Unlike pushy family members and in-laws, they offered all the advice and options you want and they coach you into deciding for yourself what is best for you and your baby. They coached me as well as my husband on the various options (and there are LOTS!) and while they were in the delivery room, they reminded me of what I wanted and prevented the hospital from pushing me around. If you are on the fence about getting a Doula, I highly recommend meeting with them and finding out what they do. They anticipated needs that I needed before I even knew I needed them, and were there to provide them to when WHEN I needed it. They do so much more than you would expect.
