Jack is a kind and friendly person who makes you feel at ease while working with him. He is patient and very quick to assess the best ways to address your challenges in a particular subject.

After one meeting with Jack, my son is ready to meet again! He enjoyed Jack's approach for the first meeting. We both suspect the subsequent meetings will be set up to target additional test taking skills/strategy along with review of practice test homework in all 3 areas. Looks like we are off to the right start.

Jack worked with my daughter to help prep her for the SATs. She had taken a general big-company course, and wanted some help focusing on those areas where she felt weakest. Jack was an excellent tutor and very flexible in his approach - he listened to her concerns and adjusted his teaching accordingly. Jack is also extremely knowledgeable about the test itself and what the examiners are looking for. With his guidance, my daughter learned how to navigate the complexities of the exam, and as a result, she received a very high score. We were extremely pleased with the outcome, and could not recommend Jack more highly. He is patient, kind and accommodating, and very effective. We will not hesitate to contact Jack again when we need tutoring for our two younger children!

We went over reading comprehension for the LSAT. Definitely helped for my upcoming week of practice tests. Looking forward to the next lesson.
