Paolo has been providing tutoring to my daughter to prepare for the SSAT high school prep exam. He's been flexible with his time and location for tutoring, thoughtful in his approach, and very motivating to my daughter, who is now also inspired to self-study in between sessions.
Laura Y. from San Carlos, CA
We have had Paolo for quite a few sessions now. He is knowledgeable in many areas of both History and English, and my daughter loves him because he's patient and laid back. Paolo has made it easier, and much more enjoyable for her to learn and understand subjects she otherwise does not for. As a parent, I appreciate his accessibility and how promptly he replies back. We highly recommend Paolo, if you're looking for a great tutor!

Zulma S. from Redwood City, CA
Paolo, Thank you for great first session . Our son is working on his first list of spelling words and practicing his th and sh sounds.
Cyan C. from Redwood City, CA
He helped with general strategies for SAT's but I would like to get more detailed help on breaking down the subjects of the SAT's and how to dissect the questions. Not a great test taker and would like more help in the area of how the questions are worded and how to view them and be a smarter test taker.
Alison W. from Menlo Park, CA
My son had his first tutoring session with Paolo to prepare for the SSAT. Paolo is friendly, experienced, knowledgeable about helping students prep for standardized tests and most importantly he has a great rapport with my son. I also appreciated his organization in setting goals and expectations directly with my son on what they would study over a specific amount of sessions.
Minli W. from Belmont, CA
Paola is not only friendly, but also his own study of psychology allows him to better connect with my son. He is fun, knowledgeable and tailors content to the needs of the student. His input was practice, easy to use and helpful. He is also honest and straightforward. His passion for teaching can be clearly seen. Will definitely work with Paolo for a long time.
Jeni C. from Millbrae, CA
My son had his first writing lesson with Paolo. He was patient and took time to explain the writing exercise. After trying many tutors the last few years, I think we found an English tutor that can help my son. He left the lesson feeling great about the session. Thanks Paolo for a really good first session!

Paolo is very thoughtful and methodical in his teaching approach. His background and schooling makes it easy for him to understand our kids areas for improvement and the kids love interacting and learning from him.
