"Wonderful SAT tutor for my children and friends' children."

I've sent my three daughters to this tutor as well as many of my friends. Her professionalism, communication, and level of caring are beyond the pale, and she coaxed out of my kids final scores on their SAT I didn't think they were capable of. I also noticed that my children’s general grades rose during and after the period she taught them; they learned better study skills as well as test-taking skills with her. It was a great investment.

"Gifted teacher"

Tova's tremendously gifted, an excellent teacher who also deeply cares about her students. She helped our twin girls prepare for their ACT and SAT, respectively, and we were blown away by both their final test results - far higher than anything I personally had been expecting. The services here were professional and extremely communicative. Tova often checked in with my husband and myself to explain how the girls were progressing or to ask us for our input, so that we felt like we were part of the process. It was extremely pleasant working with her.

"Best SAT teacher out there."

Tova's a wonderful teacher, probably the best I've hired for my kids. She's clearly familiar with every inch of the SAT and knows how to teach it in a way my son could understand. She helped him step by step through the reading comprehension and writing sections, which was what he needed the most help with. By the time they stopped taking lessons, he was flying through it and time management wasn't a problem anymore. And he got into Stanford on the strength of his score, so we're all definitely happy with the results.

"Amazing tutor; worth the money and more"

Tova's amazing; she helped my daughter get out of an extremely stressed and depressed period through her patience and persistence. I felt like she really cared about my daughter's success, and after speaking to other parents who've worked with her, I know they feel the same. My girl ended up with a 1520, far beyond what she needed or what she had hoped for, and I know that much of that is due to Tova's teaching skills, her experience, and to be honest, sheer willpower. My daughter is incredibly smart and very hard-working, but I'm not sure she could have pulled this off alone.

"Impressive SAT tutor"

I was impressed with every aspect of how Tova prepared my son for his SAT. Her professionalism, her experience, her rapid intuition for what my son needed to understand and improve, and almost more than anything else, her communication with us and her obvious desire that he succeed, made for the most effective tutor I've seen. A 560 in the reading/writing section became a 750, and a 710 in the math section became a 770. What else can I say?

"Tova Krakauer Coaching"

Tova’s a great and very special teacher. She helped me with English and reading comprehension, and I had a great time learning with her. She’s professional and communicative; the lessons feel relaxed, fun, and non-stressful, and my skills increased a lot. I gained a lot of new vocabulary, approaching texts with more ease and gaining confidence. Tova also introduced me to several texts and sources that were challenging, but also interesting, which made our classes enjoyable and engaging. Since I’ve started university we’ve always kept in touch, and I’ve recommended Tova Krakauer Coaching services to several people I know.

"Tova was excellent in helping me…"

Tova was excellent in helping me prepare for my exam. Her communication is always great, she’s supportive and helpful, and she made me feel calm and relaxed in regard to the test itself. She helped me prepare for my exam when I was really stressed about it. In the beginning Tova said she didn’t have the availability, but then she agreed to help me and I’m so glad she did! She’s a really brilliant tutor, caring, supportive, and flexible. She really made herself available to me and I could see that it made a huge difference in my score. All my interactions with Tova were very relaxed and pleasant, and my engagements with the company were professional and pleasant, and most importantly, I finished with an excellent score.

"Tova Krakaur Highly Recommended Math Tutor"

Tova’s helped me over the course of several months with math. I needed help and preferred someone to teach me personally; Tova’s very professional, and I looked forward to our double lessons. I came to her originally because of the amazing reviews, and when I started studying with her, I got great results. She’s an amazing teacher, very thorough and explains things so well. During the week she gave me assignments which cemented what we did in our lessons together, and gave me a solid foundation for the next one.
Tova’s calm, sweet, and understanding, and has endless patience. She’s extremely encouraging and stayed with me on a topic until I felt confident with it. With her help, I progressed very quickly. I highly recommend her.

"Tova is a very gifted tutor."

Tova helped me with English and Reading Comprehension. She’s so talented – she knows every inch of English grammar and structure, and explains it all really well. She’s clearly extremely intelligent, and understood every bit of the science texts I brought her to dissect, and was able to break them down and explain every bit, even though they were things she’d never seen before. (I later found out that her background is in science and engineering.) She’s a clear and thorough teacher, and I continue to use Tova Krakauer Coaching for whenever I need English help or a little extra nudge. She’s helped me enormously.

"Tova's helped me on both the math and…"

Tova's helped me on both the math and the English section. She's an amazing teacher. She explains math concepts so well, and helped my understanding to the point that the math on the test almost seemed like a breeze. She's also fantastic with the English sections - her understanding and command of the subject are matchless.
Great test prep center - the services are uber-professional, communication is great, and Tova herself is a wonderful math and a wonderful English teacher. Highly recommended.
