I've been absolutely delighted with your French language tutor, Caroline. It's been fun and I've learned a lot. I'll go to France and won't ask "Do you speak English?" She has absolutely forbidden it! Also, we've been reading Le Petit Nicolas, which is a real hoot. quote end

I had my first tutoring session with Eric today. He is an awesome tutor. I learned to ask myself questions while reading the passages. He also taught me new ways to build up my vocabulary and strategies in the English session. Thanks for assigning him as my tutor. I am so pleased and honored to be one of his students. quote end

I highly recommend Eric as a tutor for either quantitative or verbal test preparation. The instruction Eric provided was exactly what I needed to be successful on the GRE. His focused method enabled me to raise my quantitative score thirteen points from the practice exam I took just before our sessions started. Furthermore, although we focused on math at my request, the 10-15 minutes of tips Eric gave for the verbal section allowed me to achieve a 169 (99th percentile) on the verbal section. All this in just twelve hours of training. Eric is always professional, focused and amiable. He presents challenging problems, and uses a variety of methods to get you to understand the material. Thank you Eric, for all your help! quote end

We are happy to report that our son passed his Algebra comprehensive exam. He went from a 42% to a 73%. We are very happy with the results. It was a short amount of time [six tutoring sessions] to cover an entire year of Algebra, and we are very happy with the help Eric, our tutor, was able to give our son. quote end

We found out today that our son passed his AIMS Math re-take. We are very pleased with the news and wanted you to know how much we appreciate your services.

I am very happy with the quality of tutoring our daughter received from Vineet, our tutor. He is always prepared. We are passing on his name, in association with Varsity Tutors, to her friends who are juniors. Her final SAT total (best scores) was 2130, very evenly distributed across all three subjects. quote end

I wanted to let you know that I was extremely pleased with your tutoring services. Professor Vernon, my tutor, was absolutely fabulous to work with. If I had to take another math class, I have no doubt I would have him teach me. quote end

Our son ended his first semester with a 94%! I'm very pleased, to say the least. I think the grade is reflective of what he learned in his sessions with Omar [our tutor]. Thank you again for pairing Omar with our son - you were spot on, it's a great match! quote end

Just wanted to send you a quick reply to let you know how absolutely thrilled we are with Jan's expertise and help with the Algebra for our son! They both also worked really well together! Our son has since been getting all A+'s, and today we find out how he did on his last two tests, including the final - as it's his last day of summer school! This has spelled a breakthrough for him in math - now he sees that he can do it, has a taste of it, and I can now really see himself using a formula of practicing his work in the future! Of course, this also has been a great boost in self-confidence going forward - he knows he can do it! You made it very easy for us to get some help, and quickly found us the perfect tutor, Jan, to do that! quote end

Julia, our tutor, helped our son with Latin during 2-3 months. His Latin grades improved immediately. He went from a 'D' to a 'B' after only two session with Julia. We will soon find out our son's final grade for Latin, but we are expecting that he will pass his Latin Class. Julia was very nice, always on time, very professional, very capable and effective. Thank you for recommending her to us. quote end

I would like to express my heartfelt thanks for the effort that you made in pulling all of the pieces together for my son. Your commitment to getting him through the challenge of passing his Geometry exam and the effort and personal interest exhibited by his tutor, Nash, have been so appreciated that it is difficult to find the words to adequately express my gratitude. My son had many challenges with his Geometry course, and Nash was patient, engaging, encouraging, and committed to teaching and ensuring that he was grasping what was being taught. Clearly, without Nash's help my son would not be reveling in the success of passing a course filled with enormous challenges. Your company had come highly recommended and I can see that your leadership and Nash's dedication have warranted that recommendation. Please accept my appreciation for a job well-done; you are both examples of the professional qualities that I had hoped to find in our search for a tutor. quote end

Xin, our tutor, has been wonderful. He has a way of explaining math that makes it easy to understand and very interesting. He also provided detailed examples of pre-calc equations which our son found most useful. I found the tutor to be professional and a pleasure and would recommend Xin to any parents with children needing help with pre-calc. quote end

Thank you so much for your help, and for leading your tutor to our daughter. He is not only a remarkable tutor, he was an excellent teacher for our student. Maybe more importantly, our daughter is now armed with the confidence that math is not a hopeless cause, and she really can conquer it. That is a great success story! quote end

We loved [your tutor] Jessica. She was delightful, knowledgeable and a great role model for Hannah. As Hannah was going through the tutoring, she kept telling me she didn't know if this was really helping her because it was something else she had to fit into her busy schedule. Well, she took the PSAT last week and when she got home her statement was "you know, I think that tutoring really did help me." Yay!! Being a pushy mom paid off. I thank you and I thank Jessica. I've already referred Varsity Tutors to a few other people. quote end

Terrel [the tutor] had been to our house just twice before we received our first 'positive change' e-mail from one of our son's teachers, stating that he was showing more interest in the classroom and was leading the class with his positive attitude. The e-mails continue, and he seems much less frustrated with his school work. It is wonderful that he has Terrel as a role model and teacher - he is completely comfortable with him and their time together is always time well spent. We look forward to working with Varsity Tutors into the future! quote end

Thank you, thank you, Varsity Tutors. We started your services and have felt it was money well spent. Our daughter improved her SAT score by a whopping 200 points. The tutor you paired her up with was perfect. They communicated well with each other which made the learning process a success. The tutor was kind and flexible with her busy schedule. Thanks again, we will be calling soon to schedule tutoring for our next child. quote end
