Evan just tutored my son. He was very prepared, patient, super organized, and my son liked him. He also gave him homework for the next session and provided him with study materials. Highly recommend him!

Evan is an outstanding, knowledgeable and patient tutor with a good sense of humor! He has been working with my daughter on SAT prep for several sessions now and they have accomplished quite a bit! My daughter is more confident and has improved her scores during their time together! Thank you Evan!
- Kait G. from Lakewood, NY
My daughter worked with Evan W. for the SAT. She is not very confident in Math and did not score as high as she would have liked on her 1st SAT. Evan W worked with her over a few months, and we saw her math score improve by 100 points. She felt more confident and scored within the 95 percentile. We are delighted with her progress, and Evan W is a great math tutor.

Evan worked with my child to prepare for the ISEE test, and he went above and beyond to arm my child with the tools and confidence to ACE the test! His initial diagnosis of the areas for my child to work on was spot-on, and he created a customized learning plan to tackle unclear and new concepts and reinforce areas of strength. His no-nonsense, get-to-the-point style worked well with my son. I cannot recommend him enough and will be working with him again in the future!

Evan W. played a pivotal role in guiding and preparing my son, PJ, for the iSEE test. Over the course of seven weeks, Evan's dedicated tutoring sessions proved to be instrumental in PJ's success. Evan's expertise and personalized approach not only built PJ's confidence but also equipped him with the skills and knowledge necessary to excel in the challenging exam. Thanks to Evan's unwavering commitment and effective teaching methods, PJ not only felt thoroughly prepared but also performed exceptionally well on the iSEE test. I am immensely grateful for Evan's invaluable contribution to PJ's academic journey.

Evan worked with my daughter every week for several months to help her prepare for the SHSAT. She was having some difficulty with certain sections (longer reading passages, geometry), which Evan was able to identify and work with her more closely on. He broke down practice tests into manageable sections, to allow her to carefully focus on the areas she needed more help with, while continuing to strengthen the areas she performed ok in, until she was doing 1/2 practice tests, and ultimately full practice tests. He helped her improve her practice scores from below the cut off for acceptance into any of the specialized schools, to above the cut off for Stuyvesant. Thanks to Evan, she took the test and felt confident with how she performed. Now, we just wait until March to get the results.
- Jen K. from New York, NY
Evan has a wonderful way of making our son feel comfortable and has been clearly communicative from day one. We highly recommend him as a tutor; Evan is thorough and very considerate when it comes to customizing tutoring sessions based on the student's need. Highly recommended!
- V S. from Brooklyn, NY
Evan has supported both of my children in preparing for the middle and upper ISEE over the years. We go back to him because he's thorough, prepared and helps them grasp the nuances of the material as well as the important "how-tos" of test-taking in general. Thanks, Evan!
- Melissa A. from Los Angeles, CA
Evan quickly assessed the areas of focus that would most increase my daughter?s ISEE scores and focused on these with her. He assigned relevant homework, ran drills, and maintained an encouraging stance that kept my daughter engaged and optimistic. He definitely knows the test, and is able to teach strategies not available in online courses or book studies. I highly recommend him.
- Elizabeth A. from Houston, TX
He not only helped review the general test materials but taught how to solve math problems my son had problems with. My son loved it, and asked if he could use him not only for SSAT review, but also as a general math tutor.
- Andrea F. from Mc Lean, VA
Thanks Evan - for your help and guidance with my daughter?s Math SAT prep. The quick tips, repetitive reviews, comfortable environment to ask questions made it a great learning space for her. Waiting on the scores now with fingers crossed.
- Rifka M. from Acworth, GA
Evan was an outstanding and knowledgeable tutor. He helped my child prepare for the SCAT. Thanks to his expertise, flexibility with scheduling, and excellent tutoring, my child did very well on the SCAT. I wish we had contacted him two months earlier! I cannot recommend highly enough. Thanks a million, Evan!!
- Riya B. from Bryn Mawr, PA
Evan helped my son with SAT. He is very talented and my son SAT score increased after he took few classes with Evan. I would highly recommend him for SAT tutoring .
- Uma N. from Franklin, MA
Evan has a great relationship with my son - he is usu on call and has helped with little notice on math and essay writing. He is very flexible and highly communicative.
- Barbara Z. from Marietta, GA
We engaged Evan to tutor our son for the HSPT high school entrance exam. In prior practice tests, my son already scored in the 98-99 range for Math and Quantitative sections. However, his Reading/Language Use sections were in the mid-80's range. Evan worked with my son over the course of a few months on those sections and overall test taking strategies, and my son final scores for all sections were all in mid-90's to 99 percentile range, with a final Composite score of 99/Standard Score of 718. My son simultaneously had taken a 2-month HSPT prep course at a local high school, and said that course was basically useless due to (1) the size of the class, and (2) wasted time on sections that he already knew/scored well. I highly recommend the more focused and skilled private tutoring offered by Evan. Thank you so much, Evan!
- Grace T. from Los Angeles, CA
Evan helped my 8th grade daughter prepare for the ISEE over a few months after we realized there were some gaps in her math knowledge. He was prepared and knowledgeable and I appreciate that he did not overload my daughter with an enormous amount of work upfront but slowly built her up over time so by the time of the test she knew what to expect and felt confident and did very well! We also appreciated his calm demeanor, and relaxed but thorough approach. I think his math tutoring helped her in her current grade as well. Highly recommend!
- Lisa R. from New York, NY
Evan has been tutoring my son with ISEE tests. He?s very professional and passionate. Always respond quickly and gets to the point what my son needs to improve. With Evan?s help, my son got very good grades for the ISEE tests. We really appreciate that. Would highly recommend Evan for tests preparation.
- Connie K. from Sugar Land, TX
In a very short amount of time Evan was able to prep and instill confidence in my daughter for the ISEE exam. She did very well on the exam thanks to Evan. Can't recommend him enough!
- Renee T. from Houston, TX
Evan is an excellent teacher. He helps my son analyze his strengths and weaknesses in SSAT. Based on that, he designed the curriculum for my son. That made my son get great progress in SSAT. Thank you for Evan?s teaching and patience.
- Lucy W. from Avon, CT
My daughter?s first lesson was good as Evan determined her strengths and weaknesses. He dove right into the material and gave her homework to complete before the next lesson.
