Best GRE Tutors 2026–27

• “When I met Bruce, my quant was ABYSMAL. I was so worried I was going to have to completely start over and relearn years of forgotten math. But Bruce has identified super simple patterns and frameworks to breakdown the test so you only spend time learning exactly what you need to get 160+. And the patterns/frameworks are so easy to learn and completely different than anything I was ever taught or anything that is on the internet today. Cannot recommend Bruce enough!”

• “Bruce helped me improve my Quant score from sad and pathetic to being right where I need to be for T15 program applications. His frameworks aren't rigid, they are flexible enough to be applied to individuals, and the exam felt easier than when I worked with Bruce and his problem sets. I cannot recommend Bruce enough. He is easily underpriced considering the remarkable improvement I was able to enjoy. The online scaled programs are alright at best, but figuring out the language of the GRE and how to kill it person-to-person are what Bruce thrives at delivering.”

• “Bruce was exceptional in his flexibility for his students and ability to teach tricky GRE content in a digestible way. I worked with several other online platforms, but Bruce's tutoring was by far the most useful and one I wish I had started with from the jump. I improved my score by over 10 points over the span of a couple of months, and it's all thanks to Bruce! Thanks, Bruce!”

• “I did a speed-run with prepswift and had Andrew teach me some additional techniques. TBH - he gives a very valuable perspective and allowed me to score higher than I would have with just prepswift. If I were to do it all over again, I would just do quant foundation with Prepswift and have Andrew help me with techniques, etc. My scores before were all below 325.”

• “I worked with Andrew for two months leading up to my GRE, and he helped me boost my score by 13 points! He knows exactly how to tackle every concept and teaches you how to study smart, not just more. I absolutely recommend Andrew for anything GRE-related!”

• “Great teacher! Patient and helpful.”

• “Matt was an amazing GRE tutor and helped me improve my score from 315 to 325 in just 2–3 weeks. He quickly identified where I was losing marks, gave me clear and practical strategies, and made a huge difference in a very short period of time. I’d highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their GRE score!”

• “When I first started working with Matt, my baseline score was 289, and I honestly had a lot of doubts. Matt helped me break the test down into manageable pieces and gave me a clear plan to follow. He was great at identifying where I was struggling and making sure I focused my time on the areas that would make the biggest difference. More importantly, he helped me build confidence and stay consistent throughout the process. I ended up scoring a 320 on the GRE. If you're looking for a tutor, I highly recommend Matt.”

• “Matt's session shared very useful techniques for saving time on the GRE quant section. His session was also engaging, allowing us to practice what we learnt in the moment”

• “if there's anyone who can help u get your dream score it's Saad”

• “Hi, I'm Paula. I studied business administration (BWL) for my Bachelor's in Berlin, Germany, and found myself in a tricky situation: I had been admitted to my dream university together with my boyfriend, but I still had to submit a GRE score of 316 - otherwise I wouldn't have been able to start there this year, as it was the last condition I needed to fulfill. A friend recommended tutoring, which is how I came across Leland, where I was lucky enough to attend an event with Saad and another coach. I was still a bit skeptical, since I had never done coaching before, but I had the feeling that Saad had truly absorbed this test and understood it psychologically — and, most importantly, had taken it himself multiple times. That's why I decided on private tutoring with Saad. So I'd love to share my unique journey with Saad with you all: First, a bit about my general background — unfortunately, I never had a good relationship with math, even though I studied business administration in my Bachelor's. But with Saad, that changed fundamentally. He never made me feel stupid or like there was a question I couldn't ask. The way he advocates for other people is truly impressive, both on a human and a professional level. What I found especially effective was that Saad could quickly tell me which topics I should focus on to reach my target score. That was a huge game changer for me, because my biggest frustration when studying on my own before had come from feeling like I knew everything and nothing at the same time — the sheer amount of material on the GRE can quickly overwhelm you if you're a perfectionist like me and want to understand everything completely. We prepared really well together for over 4 weeks, until I unexpectedly got the chance of a GRE waiver from my university because I had received a McKinsey interview. Instead of telling me I should take the GRE anyway just to be safe about my spot at the university, Saad told me from the very beginning that he would be genuinely happy for me if I got a waiver and could start studying together with my boyfriend. I think that speaks for itself and is by no means a given in a profit-driven coaching market. That's why I'm grateful to Saad from the bottom of my heart for all his support, and for always managing to make time for me despite his high demand. Finally, I'd like to mention how impressed I am by Saad's network: when he heard about my McKinsey opportunity, he immediately connected me with one of his McKinsey contacts, so that I could practice with them daily, free of charge. That's an opportunity that is anything but normal, and I'm extremely grateful for it. Funnily enough, even his mck contact was his former student who had scored a 329 with him (166Q,163V,AWA: 5.5) and I realised that people genuinely wanted to pay forward when saad recommended me anyone. This is something that was very very very special for me. A quick note on my 4 weeks of GRE preparation: (For my university, Quant mattered more than Verbal, so I focused on Quant first.) I first watched Target Test Prep videos to refresh my fundamentals, but thanks to Saad I quickly switched to Magoosh, since I had gotten completely lost in Target and the Magoosh videos are shorter and more to the point. From then on, I only used Target for custom tests — when I had finished Saad's assignments and wanted to practice a specific topic at a specific difficulty level. The same went for the Manhattan book. A real game changer for me was the three-stage error log (every question has to be answered correctly three times before it's marked as done, and any formulas I got wrong were noted on a separate sheet). On days when I also had university classes for my final Bachelor's courses, I would at least go through the formulas from the error log. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for everyone here and your dream universities, and I hope Saad and I will stay friends forever, because over the course of my preparation he truly became a dear friend to me and I’m proud to have a 🇵🇰 friend. 🇵🇰🤝🇩🇪 Paula (LinkedIn: Paula Valentin Verch)”

• “I had the privilege to work with Saad to write my GRE. Before I spoken to Saad, I had already tried a few tutors to help with prep, but none of them felt as personalised and supportive as Saad, and I was not seeing much improvement in my scores. He has a distinct style of teaching, which he has honed by being collaborative, and very specialised to each person’s needs. I liked the fact that Saad nudged me to provide as much information before our call as possible, as he came prepared with very specific advice and areas I need to work on. I was especially struggling with the Verbal section, and Saad guided me through my thought process of solving questions, where I could be going wrong, and how I can tackle it. Moreover, he even told me about specific resources I can use to improve my skills in Verbal, which have indeed turned out to be successful. Overall, I would recommend Saad to anyone who really wants to ace their GRE prep, and is looking for a genuine, kind-hearted tutor.”

• “Avi is exactly the coach I needed to help get me to where I needed to go. If you come to him with a goal for the GRE, he will help set a program for you to achieve it. All you need to do is trust the process and follow the program. Phenomenal coach and pushes you to new levels of performance you may not have previously thought possible.”

• “I worked with Avi while preparing for the GRE, and he is truly the best tutor on the market - I interviewed countless. I had been studying for 6+ months before we started working together, but he immediately brought a level of clarity and strategy that I hadn’t come across anywhere else. What sets Avi apart is how practical and targeted his approach is. His guidance was specific and actionable. He shared tips and ways of thinking about the test that I genuinely had not encountered in any prep materials or prior studying. Those insights helped me approach questions more efficiently and avoid common mistakes that had been holding me back. Beyond the technical side, Avi was incredibly supportive throughout the process. Preparing for the GRE is a journey, and Avi played a huge role in helping me rebuild confidence in my abilities. He pushed me when I needed it, but always in a way that felt encouraging and constructive. If you’re looking for a GRE tutor who combines strong test knowledge with practical strategy and real support, I would recommend Avi without hesitation to anybody and everybody!!! Working with him made a meaningful difference in both my performance and my confidence going into the exam.”

• “When I first began the MBA application process, I was shocked by the prices associated with high quality coaches. I soon began to realize how priceless Avi’s time, expertise, and energy is. He pushed me when I needed to dig deeper on an essay, instilled confidence before an upcoming GRE exam, and encouraged me not to give up on my exam score. You’re not only getting spectacular perspective and guidance with Avi, but also how to navigate the emotional experience that is studying for and applying to an MBA. I was blown away to receive acceptances and scholarships from 4 schools, and that is a testament to Avi’s intimate knowledge of the programs and helping to articulate my story thoroughly. This process is a marathon and it’s important to do it with someone you 100% trust to have your best interests at heart - look no further than Avi to get you where you want to go.”

• “Marie was an incredible resource for me in taking the GRE. Before I worked with Marie, my Quantitative scores were fairly stagnant at around 159-162. In just three and a half weeks of working with her, my score improved significantly: In my final two practice tests, I scored a 170 and a 168 in Quant, and scored a 168 on the actual exam. Her vast collection of questions, instructive videos, and other resources directly helped boost my score to the next level, not to mention her around-the-clock responsiveness. I did not anticipate how much work she'd make me do outside of sessions, but I can confidently say that her rigorous style was exactly what I needed to improve so significantly in such a short amount of time. I highly recommend Marie for any GRE takers in search of a high quality and attentive tutor.”

• “Marie helped me increase my quant score by almost 15 points!! She explains the quant concepts in new ways to provide successful techniques to solve problems faster. Can’t recommend her enough!”

• “Marie was so helpful, easy to work with, and knowledgable. Working with Marie allowed me to significantly boost my quant score on the GRE in a very short period of time. Marie was supportive and gave me the confidence and support I needed to perform well on the GRE.”

• “Eric is a patient, thoughtful, and practical GRE coach. He takes the time to understand how you approach questions and helps identify where your reasoning may be going off track. I appreciated that his sessions were flexible and focused on the areas where I needed the most support. He explains concepts clearly and, rather than simply giving the answer, helps you understand the reasoning and strategy behind it. His feedback was always constructive and useful, and I usually left our sessions with a clearer idea of what to practise next. Eric is also kind, approachable, and easy to work with. I’m grateful for his guidance during my GRE preparation and would be happy to work with him again when I resume studying. I would recommend him to students looking for a supportive and practical GRE coach.”

• “Eric was great to work with as a coach. He is highly knowledgeable and meets you exactly where you are in your quant understanding. He has a strong ability to take complex quant topics and break them down into clear, manageable concepts. In addition to helping me build confidence and tackle more difficult questions, he also introduced effective test‑taking strategies that improved my overall performance on the quant section. When you work with Eric, you get someone who is skilled, attentive to your needs, and committed to helping you strengthen both your understanding and your approach. I highly recommend him!”

• “Eric helped me improve my Quant score above my target goal after only working with him for a couple weeks. He was extremely patient with me and adjusted prep to what I preferred. He clearly explained any question that I had trouble with. I highly recommend working with Eric for various test taking strategies and techniques, along with targeted test prep for specific goals!”

  Comprehensive Guide to Acing the Quantitative Reasoning on the GRE$2,064

• “Took math tutoring for GRE from Sergey. He explained everything in a comprehensive manner with the right strategies to tackle the questions. Definitely would recommend him if you need help.”

• “I only attended their free webinar, GRE Quantitative Reasoning, but I was honestly impressed. Sergey has a concise, easy-to-understand teaching style, making it clear that you will benefit a lot from their guidance. Hopefully, I'll have time in the future for their tutoring.”

• “Sergey is amazing! He took time to understand my learning style and goals, then crafted an overall, targeted plan to try to boost my score quant 5 points over 3 weeks (which was a tall order!) At the end of every session, we went over how we could better tailor the already very well-targeted overall plan. This all paid off in spades, as I increased my quant score 8 points (more than I targeted) and somehow, the confidence boost even allowed me to improve my verbal score 3 points too (that score was already fine, so we didn't focus on that). I'd highly recommend Sergey to anyone who is feeling like they've gone as far as they can studying on their own (I studied for 3 months on my own before the sessions with Sergey) and looking to gain a final boost from tutoring.”

• “Working with Jacob for a couple of weeks really helped strengthen my quant knowledge and skills. His approach to math along with the tips and tricks he shares makes concepts much easier to understand. I can only say good things about studying with him.”

• “Jacob led a free event on "Math Magic Tricks" for the quant section of the GRE/GMAT and it was super helpful. Lots of great tips on how to simplify problems to get through them faster. Thanks Jacob!”

• “Jacob is a phenomenal and wonderful tutor, he gave me tips and strategies how to tackle the GRE questions and how to be confidence in answering them, I totally recommend him for anyone looking to study for the GRE, he is absolutely worth the investment and fun to learn from.”

• “Rifat was a great support system and tutor through out my MBA journey. I pivoted to the GRE after months of trying. With the GMAT and he really helped me develop the math skills needed to do well on the exam. We talked through timing skills and testing strategies which I think were very helpful! He had continued to check in and support me well after our sessions ended and that means a lot. I would definitely recommend Rifat.”

• “Rifat was an awesome mentor to me through my entire deferred MBA process. He excels at making clear, concise, and timely goals that were very helpful to staying on pace to finish all my applications on time. He cares about your process as much as you do and really wants the best for you throughout every step of the journey. Highly recommend!”

• “Josh is an amazing tutor! After my second GRE attempt, I was focused on improving my Quant score (I had previously scored a 156 and a 153) with only three weeks to prepare, all while balancing other parts of my application. The most helpful thing Josh did was take the burden of creating a study plan off my shoulders. He provided excellent resources and designed a detailed plan outlining what we would cover in class and what to work on between sessions. After four sessions working together, I took the GRE again and scored a 162 in Quant. I was thrilled — I truly could not have done it without Josh!”

• “Working with Josh was a genuine privilege. In just a few sessions, he was able to diagnose problem areas for me with regard to the GRE and build out a study plan to rectify them. From tutoring sessions to slide decks and strategy guides, Josh's tutelage was indispensable on my application journey. Thanks largely to his efforts, I was able to gain admittance to a deferred MBA program and will be attending in a few short years. Thanks Josh!”

• “I decided to spend the money for a private tutor because I struggled with testing due to burnout which is self-inflicted and my migraines from my previous work. I asked Josh for help after scoring a 305 on my official test after studying for 2 months for the GRE. After working with Josh after a month, I scored a 317 which I felt ecstatic about but felt I could squeeze out a few more points. I paid for an extra hour with Josh and worked with the tools he provided me to make the final push for my GRE and I was able to score a 321. WIth his score, I was able to get into a couple of my grad programs. Ultimately got into Penn and Chicago for my MSCS and MBA programs. I don't think I would have been able to afforded the opportunity with these programs without his help for my GRE. Throughout my entire GRE journey, Josh was able to diagnose where my weaknesses were, and ways to improve my approach to the test and how to prepare for the days leading up to the test. Trying to tackle the test alone is still achievable, but I the amount of time I saved with Josh as my personal tutor versus trying to tackle the test alone saved me a lot of time as I was still working full time when I was preparing for the test. Josh is very understanding and will know how to relate to you to get the best out of you. I highly recommend Josh if you are still debating on whether you want to pay for a private tutor. Thank you Josh!”
