Testimonials

Academic Math Student

“My experience with my tutor was extremely positive and beneficial to me as a math student. She helped me in 11th grade with pre calc AB, which was an extremely hard course at my school. She was able to explain things that my teacher was not able to get across to my understanding. She quickly learned the ways that taught me best and was able to teach me the course in that way. She and I made extensive review sheets together that were very helpful to my leraning this course.”

ACT Student

“My tutor is a great tutor who is not only understanding but very motivational. Whenever he saw me struggle, he never called me out on it; he would instead offer assistance. He has taught me that I have the ability to push myself and that I am capable of more than I think.”

LSAT Student

“My tutor was—in a word—fantastic. Clear, concise, able to conjure up different explanations if there was any lack of clarity. My sessions with him were nothing short of instrumental in transforming my test-taking ability. Would recommend him with enthusiasm to anyone looking for an LSAT tutor, or indeed tutor on any other subject as well.”

GMAT Student

“My tutor is exceptional at what he does and I am very glad that I chose to work with him. He has made me a better MBA applicant not only by tutoring me to a fantastic GMAT score, but also by consistently giving me confidence in myself as an applicant. He is direct and clearly knowledgeable, as well as extremely kind and personable. It has been a pleasure to work with him.”

ACT student

“My tutor pushed me to be confident in my own common sense & made me feel smart. He believes in me and has supported me in all aspects of the test-taking process, including being the emotional support I desperately needed. I wouldn’t have been able to do this without him. He is truly the most perfect tutor.”

Math Level 2 student

“My tutor, more so than many teachers I’ve had (especially in math), doesn’t simply have the material mastered and have a basic ability to communicate it, but he has a real understanding of how students my age go about learning materials. He has a very organized approach and encourages students to break up material into distinct categories, making the scope of the tests seem finite and manageable.”

ACT student

“My tutor is by far the best tutor I’ve worked with. Most tutors I’ve had in the past would just sit and watch me do work. My tutor, on the other hand, goes through questions and teaches me how to approach them and what techniques to use. Advantage Testing as a whole has been great.”

AT Family

“Advantage Testing and our tutor gave our daughter so much more than an ‘advantage’. He gave her confidence and the assurance that she can prevail through the ups and downs of standardized testing. It is a process of peaks and valleys, and her tutor helped her navigate her way to success and to a result beyond her expectations. She has grown as a student and as a person through our time with Advantage. We are forever grateful.”

LSAT student

“My tutor is very methodical, patient, encouraging and clear in his presentation of the material. Working with my tutor allowed me to have a better understanding of the LSAT, which has helped my confidence and approach to the test. Moreover, my tutor never fails to be unwavering in his support and faith towards me. He truly is one of the greatest tutors I have ever had and I definitely recommend him to other students.”

ACT family in Los Angeles

“Our tutor and the team at Advantage Testing have made a profound difference for my daughter S who is in 11th grade. Our tutor helped S radically improve her scores to the point where she'll have as good a chance as anyone for her top choice colleges, AND S has genuinely enjoyed the process and adores her tutor! Our AT tutor is warm, responsive, super knowledgeable, and an incredible teacher."

Student in Westport

"My experience with my tutor on my graduate school personal statement and application was amazing! She had a strategic approach to helping me get my graduate application essay ready for submission. Her editorial and story-telling skills helped me re-structure my work and prepare a polished and professional personal statement that helped me get into my top-choice program. I couldn’t have done it without her!"

SAT student in South Florida

“I would highly recommend Advantage Testing. I started in the 500’s and the tricks only help if you can eliminate answers yourself. But I didn’t know what to get rid of. My Advantage Testing tutor was really smart and really good at breaking down the questions. He focused on the subjects I didn’t know and taught me the material. I needed a teacher, not a trick.”

ACT student

“My tutor is just amazing. He isn’t a strict and annoying teacher, he is hilarious and knows everything that there is to know about the ACT. He is, by far, the best, most amazing, and funniest tutor I have worked with.”

Family in Silicon Valley

“Our daughter was accepted at her first-choice school. She is extremely happy to be going there in the fall, and a huge part of that is all the hard work you did with her to make sure she got a high SSAT score. Thank you so much for working with her, it truly paid off.” 

Chemistry student in New York

“My tutor is the best! He really did make learning this information again so clear and so concise—I could not have asked for a better experience!”

ACT family in Westport

Biology student in New York

“I thought that my tutor & the company as a whole have greatly improved my test-taking ability, not just for the SAT Subject Test, but in general. This program made all the material I needed to go through much easier & quicker than I would have been able to do otherwise.”

MCAT student in New York

“My tutor is incredibly kind, patient, and thoughtful. She has gone above and beyond in her effort to help me over the past few months, which is what you want to feel from a great tutor.”

Student in Silicon Valley

“I just wanted to write to thank you for all your help, since it really did make a huge difference. Originally I told my mom I needed help because I had bombed the first test and the only way I could get even an A- for the trimester was to ace the next two, which I knew was basically impossible. Luckily, with your help, I was able to do really well on both tests, and I got the A- for the trimester. So I just wanted to let you know that your efforts made a difference and were appreciated.”

Family in Houston

“Our experience with Advantage Testing has been phenomenal. The tutor working with our son is extraordinarily talented, incredibly knowledgeable, and exemplifies the spirit and endurance of a truly gifted teacher. He strives to instill a life-long love for learning, fosters intellectual curiosity, encourages clarity of thought, and promotes creativity and excellence in all aspects of education. He is a role model, an advisor/mentor, a coach, and a constant source of inspiration; our son has made significant, measurable strides in academics at school and on various standardized tests. Advantage Testing’s reputation for unrivaled academic excellence is well deserved, and its dynamic, distinguished, dedicated and committed tutors make this place very special amongst an array of appealing tutoring and test prep centers in Houston.”

Family in Portland

“Both my son and I praised the support that his tutor has provided as outstanding.

We will recommend Advantage Testing very highly to anyone we run across who is interested in test prep!”

SAT student in Boston

“Well, I think that the tutor really makes the process. With a bland and boring teacher, I feel like I am letting the stuff go in one ear and out the other. My tutor was the opposite of this and really helped me learn the stuff while having fun. I think that this is the first time where I haven’t dreaded going to a tutor.”

ISEE student (Lower Level) in Boston

“I think the Advantage Testing program has helped me a lot. It has helped me with reading comprehension and vocabulary, which I have never been good at. My tutor was kind and patient. Advantage Testing is amazing!”

Family in South Florida

"Advantage Testing is the best, they really are. The company was referred to me by friends in New York who swore by it. I was a little skeptical at first but my daughter really wanted to go to Michigan and needed the scores to get in. Advantage Testing made it happen. Now I recommend Advantage Testing to all my friends. It’s worth every penny to get the level of attention, feedback and focused service that you want and your kids need to succeed on these tests. After my daughter, my son went and then my daughter again for GREs. I am a huge fan of the Advantage Testing program."

GMAT student in New York

“My tutor was a fantastic tutor. When I came to him, I knew most of the basics, but needed help dissecting why I was still getting questions wrong. He was very knowledgeable about the topics but what was most helpful was his thoughtful approach. He addressed my careless mistakes with patience and helped me avoid making them. He’s the best!”

SAT family in South Florida

“My grades were good enough to get into really good schools but my SAT score wasn’t. It was daunting and annoying. One test could keep me out of Duke after all my hard work in High School? After meeting my tutor for the first time I felt like I had a teammate, a friend who would take me though it who also happened to be an expert, a real master of the subject—the SAT. My tutor helped me understand the objective of the test questions and as a result, I could apply what I knew. My scores went up over 300 points and off to Duke I went.”

Family in Houston

“We would Highly Recommend Advantage Testing. The professional tutors at Advantage Testing continue to make a significant impact in helping our three kids prepare for their academic courses as well as standardized testing. The tutors are patient and strategic in their tutoring approach and genuinely care about their students. Advantage has provided our kids with the skills and confidence they need to be successful in school. We feel that our kids’ academic achievements are a direct reflection of the commitment AT makes to their students to help them be the best they can be.”

ACT family in Westport

"Our tutor is simply amazing! He understands that all students learn differently and he is able to easily adjust to a particular learning style. My daughter enjoyed the time she spent with him because he has a way of relating to his students that makes them comfortable and not stressed. The best part was that her ACT scores skyrocketed! We could not have been more pleased with our tutor and Advantage Testing!!!"

He also made the sessions very positive and stimulating. Our tutor made an extraordinary difference in the test results for our children, and I give him the highest possible recommendation in every respect.”

ACT family in Houston

“We can’t thank you enough. It’s been a lengthy journey beginning with a declaration by my child that he was going to get a 32 on his ACT, followed by a 24 on his first practice test. A year later, he surpassed his goal (a 33!). That only happens when a determined kid receives extraordinary direction and support. We are reasonably sure our son would never have been admitted to the Liberal Arts Honors Program (and perhaps to UT at all) without your help.”

SAT family in Houston

“Thanks to the team at Advantage Testing, my four older children made excellent scores on their SATs, which was a giant factor in each of them being admitted to his and her dream school. Three out of four were National Merit Finalists, and we give Advantage much of the credit for that. My children have been tutored in seemingly every subject under the sun; Advantage Testing does it all! Currently, child five and child six are in full swing, studying for the SAT, and they have already reaped rewards from their work with the amazing tutors at Advantage Testing. Some of my children are better testers than others, but Advantage has helped each of them reach his and her full potential. We know that, in addition to being excellent instructors, Advantage tutors are great motivators—our children now want to excel. I am so thankful that we have Advantage Testing in Houston!”

ACT family in Westport

"My son’s tutor was patient, kind, and understanding with my son, in addition to her very effective teaching skills. My son had to go way back to the basics, and he regained a lot of knowledge working with his tutor. He made remarkable progress. The intensive review she did with him is helping him in school, in addition to ACT testing. And he really liked working with her. AT is worth it!"

SAT student in Boston
