Testimonials

“Our son's tutor was wonderful! He was able to assess his strengths and weaknesses, and work with him to improve his ACT scores. His score increase was much larger than we were expecting! I can see our son's work with his tutor carrying over into his classes as he is now getting As in English, while he has never done so before.”

Amanda B., Parent

"Three months ago I never would have believed that I could score 700 on the reading section. I wholeheartedly believe that my success can mainly be attributed to your tutoring; thank you so much for your help!"

Tim D., Student

"My son's Summit tutor helped him go from a 24 to a 31 on the ACT! He was the best - so patient and easy to be around."

Tiernan C. Parent

"My daughter’s score increased over 100 points from her first practice test to her most current one. Her tutor is very helpful and explains everything so it’s easy to understand."

Lisa T., Parent

"He is a phenomenal tutor who helped our son achieve a score even better than we had hoped. He was methodical in breaking down the areas that needed improvement and coached our son how to overcome his weaknesses. We couldn't have asked for a better tutor."

Susan K., Parent

“Our Summit tutor was great! My son really enjoyed his sessions and actually looked forward to them. The tutor kept us well-informed about the material they covered as well as my son’s progress. His ability to clearly explain concepts not only prepared my son for the AP exam but also boosted his class grade from an 87 to a 96. His expertise is fantastic, and we highly recommend him!”
