Testimonials from Students and Parents

““Mark’s experience writing SAT questions and his understanding of the material definitely shows in his tutoring sessions. He explains the concepts in a way that’s easily comprehensible and memorable. He also makes every session fun, and the weekly two-hour sessions I had with him would go by super quick. In the end, Mark helped me score a perfect 1600 on the SAT and I was accepted to Columbia University, my top choice school! I can’t thank him enough for his excellent coaching, and I truly couldn’t have done it without his help.””

Kyle Rodstein (Wilbraham, MA)

“I've had the pleasure of working with Mr. Schuyler twice, both during my junior year of high school and in the months after graduating from college. I can safely say that no matter what level, no matter what test, Mr. Schuyler's knowledge and one-on-one approach has been the key to achieving the scores necessary to get into competitive schools. My sessions with him spanned the SAT and GRE, and in both cases I saw my test scores rise throughout our sessions. If you work under his guidance, you will see your scores rise as well. Working with Mr. Schuyler over the course of 6 years has been a pleasure. His engaging style of teaching made even the driest aspects of standard testing interesting. I can't recommend him enough!”

Ben Sullivan (Longmeadow, MA)

“Mark did a terrific job with our son Hunter in preparing for the SAT. Hunter’s scores were 730 in Math and 560 in Verbal, over 125 points of improvement in each! Mark worked very diligently with Hunter, establishing a very strong rapport with Hunter immediately and thus was able to get much more out of him than had it been pure labor on Hunter’s part. With a gentle and winning way, Mark takes a personal interest in any student whom he tutors. I taught for 12 years and believe I know something about effective pedagogical method; Mark has it. We give Mark kudos for an effective curriculum extremely well implemented.”

Bev Williams (Herndon, VA)

“First off, I want to say – thank you. I just graduated from UCLA and it would never have happened without your support 4 years ago studying for the SAT. Thank you! I'm reaching out to see if you are available in the next couple months for another client. My little sister is a junior in high school and my mom would like for her to have tutoring for the SAT. Hope all is well with you!”

Beth Rigali (Santa Maria, CA)

“Mr. Schuyler: You tutored me in the ACT and I got a 33 on the February exam. Now have my choice between a full ride to University of Arkansas, a full ride to Hendrix, University of Richmond (where I was given a Presidential Scholarship), William and Mary, Wesleyan and Middlebury. I just wanted to tell you thank you again for all of your help and that I would not have these great choices without your guidance. Thank you, Adam”

Adam Jackson (Little Rock, AR)

“Maddie and I were talking about you the other day, as in she said she’s so happy with her professors–that they are actually great teachers, like Mark Schuyler. I thought you would get a kick out of that! Maddie ended up having the world as her oyster. Princeton and Dartmouth both wanted her (but alas, no money) and she got numerous full ride scholarships and ended up going to Vanderbilt. Thanks for being such a delightful mentor for Maddie! I think she will remember you long after most of her teachers!”

Teresa Criscione (Park City, UT)

“Just wanted to let you know that I got in to Georgetown and plan on going. Thanks again for all the help. You really made a huge difference!”

Matthew Rollings (Longmeadow, MA)

“MARK, I GOT A 32!!! I could not have done this without you! Thank you so much for your continued support and dedication to teaching me! Thank you for being the amazing person and teacher that you are! If the world were filled with Mark Schuylers, it would be a much better place!”

Skye Lucas (New York City, NY)

“Hello Mark! It is Esther! I did really well on my SATs and would like to thank you so much! Thank you for teaching me and being such a great tutor!!! I got a 2090 with a 790 in the Writing section and a perfect 12 on the Essay! I cannot thank you enough for being such a great mentor!”

Esther Lee (Wilbraham, MA)

“It was so important to us all that Maddy be able to go to any college that she wanted and that wanted her for Field Hockey – so we hired you to address the SAT issue – and you nailed it! So she graduates from one of the best universities in the country and get this amazing award: The Big Ten Medal of Honor!”
