Josh is a GMAT-taker's dream. Before working with Josh, I took a group GMAT course where I didn’t see any improved results. After hours of hard work and hard earned money spent, I was deflated and discouraged. A friend recommended I try tutoring with Josh to improve. Josh’s student-specific approach helped me master the test in the most efficient manner possible, and after only a few sessions, I was able to achieve my target score. I couldn’t recommend Josh more for those in need of a boost to hit their target score.

With his many years of teaching experience, Josh has an uncanny ability to connect with your strengths and weaknesses and shape them into conquering what you'll likely see on the test. In addition to struggling with GMAT material I had test-taking anxiety that affected my scoring dramatically. Josh instantly realized this and tailored an approach that helped me overcome my test-taking shortcomings, understanding the need for a comprehensive approach to GMAT coaching. Josh isn't just a teacher: he's a certified mind coach that delivers outstanding results every single time.

Josh worked miracles with me. I had tried self-guided GMAT prep a couple of times on my own to limited success, but it wasn’t until working with Josh that I really felt the unlock. His targeted approach to prep through personalized and specific skill-building, in addition to live problem sets and virtual coaching with tips and tricks, was extremely effective in a short amount of time. He got me way past my target score I have recommended him to many of my peers and will continue to do so — can’t speak highly enough of him as a tutor!

After taking the GMAT once and not scoring well, I signed up for tutoring sessions with Marie. Her strategies and tricks for the quantitative section were very helpful for improving my speed while maintaining accuracy. In just 3-4 weeks, I was able to improve my overall score by 90 points and reach my target. I would highly recommend working with Marie!

When I started studying for the GMAT, I was very concerned. I scored a 650 on my first practice test and I used way more than the allotted amount of time. After my tutoring experience with Marie, I was ultimately able to score a 760 on the actual exam, which was far beyond the goal I had set for myself. Marie knew all the ins and outs of the test, all the best resources for practice, all the best test taking strategies, all the best approaches to different types of problems, etc. Marie was attentive to the areas I struggled with and was able to prescribe effective solutions to any difficulties I faced with testing. I really can't recommend Marie enough. 5/5 for sure.

Marie is a fantastic tutor and helped me a lot in my GMAT preparation. With her I primarily focused on the quantitative section and my scores drastically improved. I highly recommend her as a tutor in general and as a math tutor especially. Thanks to her help I managed to get into Columbia Business School's MBA deferred enrollment program.

Marie tutored for the GMAT, and I highly recommend her! She adapts her explanations to concepts and questions to match your learning style, and teaches you tricks that cannot be found in a book! She was helpful in BOTH math and english. I improved my score by more than 100 points with her - highly highly recommend.

Marie tutored me in math and english for the GMAT. Her expertise really helped me work through problems in the best way for the GMAT. Highly recommend!

Marie is an incredible tutor, friend, and inspiration when it comes to standardized tests. I worked with her for the GMAT and GRE - specifically on Math/Quant. She is not only knowledgeable but is encouraging, holds her students accountable and helps them to achieve success through hard work, repetition and clear explanations. Marie always shows up to each session prepared and provides thoughtful and helpful insight into the respective test strategy and ways to solve problems. I am appreciative of Marie giving me the confidence to conquer the math sections!

Marie is an exceptional GMAT tutor. From the moment I first met her, I intuitively knew that I was working with someone who struck that perfect balance between mathematical ingenuity and teaching ability. I was referred to Marie by an admissions specialist after being unsatisfied with a generically assigned tutor from Varsity. Marie immediately analyzed my needs, crafted a rigorous curriculum, and refreshed me on the fundamentals I needed in order to score in the 700s on the GMAT. She taught me a completely different way of thinking about math— a few weeks in, she had me dreaming about prime numbers at night. Marie is brilliant, fascinating to work with, and also downright hilarious. Though I dread math, I always looked forward to our sessions because I liked her so much and wanted to make her proud! She was the first person I called when I got my test results, and the second person I called when I got accepted to my dream school. I walked away with a top GMAT score, an acceptance letter, and a friend to visit in the Azores.
