Parallax Test Prep

Anthony is a tutor who really knows what he is doing. He is extremely intelligent, he knows exactly how to tailor the sessions to your needs and is really accommodating with your schedule. If you are looking for a top notch tutor, I would 100% recommend Anthony.
I learned things that I hadn’t in previous math classes that helped me improve my scores, and we worked on not only the information such as formulas but also on strategies to help with time management.

I attempted to study for the GMAT on my own but I wasn’t getting the scores that I wanted. So I hired Anthony, who helped me increase my score by 100 points! Anthony was incredibly patient with my terrible math skills and provided thorough explanations and strategies for both the quant and verbal sections. He also helped me with my general test-​taking approach for the GMAT (timing, thinking about the questions from the question-writer’s perspective, etc). I am very happy with my experience and would highly recommend Anthony.

Anthony is a fantastic tutor and was the key to helping me achieve a 99^th percentile score. Given the extensive GMAT material available online, it’s easy to get distracted by advice that isn’t targeted to your individual needs. Anthony provided me with the individual advice and instruction I needed to increase my score. I could not recommend him more highly to anyone looking to maximize their GMAT results.

Fear of math. There must be some fancy psychological word for it. (I don’t really feel like looking it up now.) But that is what I had/​have. Fear of math. It had been 15+ years since I deigned to attempt a math problem. And that was a major problem because my goal was and is to achieve a degree and I needed math but I feared it. I did not want to take a developmental class. It is too expensive and a bit humiliating so I began working with Anthony. Patience. Do you understand? I would want to stop mid-​question because of stubbornness and frustration. I would whine and say ‘I’m done’. Anthony was not having it. Though he was kind, he was/​is also firm that I could do it. And I did. In 1 month of working with him, not doing any math before, I was able to test out of developmental. Understand that he got me through simple fractions to linear equations. LINEAR EQUATIONS!!! I can find the slope of a line like a boss. And I saved $ 700+ on a math class and my dignity. Now I am in my regular math class and do not feel the anxiety that I thought I would feel. I mean, did I not just get through a year or more worth of math in a month? I am confident and I know that if I have an issue Anthony will help. So he is priceless. Absolutely priceless.

Anthony is one of those super-​humans, who received perfect scores on every standardized test from the LSAT to the GMAT to the GRE. My past experience with SAT tutors was to stay away from the wiz kids because they didn’t know how to teach/​translate their genius, but Anthony does. He provided really clarifying explanations for every problem I struggled with, and if one explanation didn’t work, he’d take a different approach to ensure I could tackle future, similar problems. He also taught me invaluable calculation shortcuts and tricks to approaching problems. Anthony is a seasoned GMAT textbook editor, so his familiarity with prep books is impressive. He knows exactly which problems are most challenging so he cherry picks the best examples to work through during sessions.
I’ve found many tutoring sessions to range for a total waste of time to only somewhat helpful, since the tutor always says, «come with questions.» Anthony meets you in the middle: he encourages you to bring challenges, but he also quickly identifies your areas of weakness and flips through the books to practice problems that you may not have stumbled upon yet. I felt like the value/​dollar breakdown of each session was maximized under his instruction.
I’d call Antony a five star, two thumbs up, should-​be-​award-​winning GMAT tutor!

Anthony is an excellent tutor. I worked with Anthony one on one following a GMAT prep course he instructed, as I desired to target a few subjects that were still challenging me. After only several hours of one on one time with him, I felt confident with the material.
One thing that sets Anthony apart is his ability to offer several different approaches to problems, which is critical to teaching to standardized tests. Anthony is clear that the student must own the work, but he is supportive, patient, and incredibly invested in each person he works with.
I attribute much of my success on the GMAT exam to Anthony’s skill as a tutor. Without pause, I give him my highest recommendation.
