GRE Tutors, Events, and Resources

I am Saad Amer, founder of @GRE341WithSaadAmer on Instagram, a 100k+ GRE community where I regularly share official score reports, candid student success stories/journeys, and test preparation insights. I personally improved my GRE score from a 296 (Q158, V138, AWA 5.0) to a 339 (Q169, V170, AWA 5.0), giving me firsthand insight into what it takes to achieve a top score and overcome the challenges most test takers face. Over the past several years, I have coached hundreds of students from around the world through one-on-one sessions, helping them gain admission to leading graduate, MBA, and professional programs. My coaching focuses not only on content and test-taking strategies, but also on identifying individual weaknesses, building efficient study plans, and developing the mindset needed to perform under pressure on test day. I have documented 100+ GRE success stories on Instagram (@gre341withsaadamer), including official score reports, diagnostic breakdowns, and detailed analyses of how students improved. My goal is not simply to teach shortcuts or tricks, but to help every student build a repeatable system that maximizes their GRE score and confidence. Whether you are targeting a 320+, 330+, or simply trying to achieve your personal best, I bring a proven process, extensive coaching experience, and a deep understanding of how ETS designs the exam.

Hi! I'm Bruce Hanson and I've coached the GRE for 10 years both as an instructor at UCLA and as the founder of First Choice Admissions. I specialize in getting students scores of 325+ and I've helped hundreds of students just like you hit their goals! I created a rigorous curriculum at UCLA by sending classrooms of students through the program and further honed it through thousands of hours of teaching private students.

I've been mentoring students to take the GRE since 2005. I was already working for Kaplan Test Prep as a SAT, ACT, and LSAT tutor and I took the GRE when I applied to graduate school in 2002. (I have a MA in Math Education from Teachers College, Columbia University.) Based on my GRE score (the scoring rubric has changed over the years, but I scored at least 95% in each subject, as per Kaplan standards), Kaplan trained me to be a GRE coach. I later became a full time high school teacher and my second job was private tutoring. For about 15 years, I only taught SAT and ACT. In 2016, I made a major life change and moved to the Azores, Portugal. I returned to private tutoring. Realizing that there was more demand for GMAT and GRE, I self-studied and began working as a GRE tutor. I feel my biggest asset is not my content knowledge or teaching skills, but rather my ability to connect with learners on a personal level. I really enjoy the time spent with my students. I'm not just a tutor doling out facts to memorize--I'm also a counselor who needs to motivate. It may sound cliche, but every student is different! And I enjoy thinking creatively about how to tackle different learning obstacles. My motto is: A good tutor teaches students the steps needed to solve particular problems. A great tutor shows students to how to think ingeniously when faced with unfamiliar content. I go through all the highs and lows with my students while keeping them motivated, positive, and feeling good about their progress. I believe learning should feel like an enjoyable struggle. It's hard work, but the end result makes the effort worth it and that much more gratifying.

Andrew never thought he'd be an influencer, but here we are! Andrew has shared hundreds of GRE videos with his 30K TikTok followers, but nothing replaces the energy of live instruction. With a 99th percentile score (170 on Verbal and 169 on Quant), Andrew knows a thing or two about the GRE. However, just scoring well on a test doesn't make someone a good instructor. 10 years of test prep experience does. Before moving into grad school testing, Andrew was an in-demand SAT instructor on the Upper East Side of Manhattan at some of the most selective high schools. He has taught the GRE in person, online, and on campuses such as USC, UC San Diego, and CSU Northridge. He loves helping students reach their highest potential and conquer their fears!

Hi there! My name is Avi and I have taught the GRE/GMAT for 18 years. More importantly, I have written actual questions for the test and know the hidden patterns and strategies that I can teach you in order to be successful. For those who have math anxiety and/or test taking anxiety in general, I also address the psychological aspects of the test. My students are typically ones who are targeting the top schools and need a score in the 90th percentile and above. In my years teaching standardized tests, what I have found important is to provide students with a clear and customized syllabus of exactly what they ought to be doing between our private sessions. I do that using my own materials that I have written and developed. This means you will be practicing with realistic GRE questions that reflect what you will see on the actual exam, NOT random busy work. I also specialize in Math 'Fraidy Cats. Been a while since you took a math course? Are you terrified at the prospect of seeing horrific words such as 'fractions' or 'algebra'? Rest easy...I teach GRE strategy, NOT math. With my approach, you won't have to revisit four years of high school math. The verbal is an equally diabolical section with plenty of strategies I have devised over my years crafting questions for the exam and teaching them to my students. Have you already tried studying on your own but find yourself just spinning your wheels? The GRE is a sophisticated exams that take an expert to show you the game they're playing. I not only teach you the strategies to succeed; we also address test taking anxiety (a real thing!), how to pace and time yourself, as well as a structured plan to study so you don't have to wonder what to do between our sessions. I am more than a GRE tutor. Check my reviews on Leland and Yelp. I am a relationship-driven partner, and when you cross that GRE finish line with your 330+, I'll be the first to meet you with a big hug and a hearty congrats! I can't wait to help you reach your goal score. P.S. A note about my prices. They are non-negotiable. I am not the cheapest GRE tutor. I know that. There are other tutors that compete on price. I don't. I compete on quality. Top scores for ambitious students looking to crack the 330+ land, and gain admission to M7 programs. Please note, my schedule fills up rather quickly, especially between the months of August and April (application season), so reach out and I will tell you if I am taking on more clients. Best to all of you!! -Avi

With 12 years of experience coaching candidates for the GMAT and GRE, I bring deep expertise to each coaching session. From time-saving strategies on Quant to memory techniques on Verbal, I've helped hundreds of ambitious people achieve their goals and win admission to some of the world's top universities and business schools. I specialize in helping candidates tame test anxiety and offer specialized packages to help you overcome this challenge. Many of my students have said, "I only wish I had started working with her sooner!" Don't struggle on your own. Take ownership of your ambitions and let's get to work.

For the last 25+ years (15 for GRE) I have had the honor of helping over a thousand students catapult their GMAT/GRE scores and get into the school of their dreams. My unique approach is to get inside the head of my students and teach them how to ask better questions when they attack a GRE problem. This puts them in the correct headspace that they need in order to "see" what the question is asking, its nuances, its trickiness. My experience is that this also helps tremendously with test anxiety. I teach my students the best and fastest strategies for solving quant questions and the ideal way to think on the verbal section. I also use carefully honed diagnostic tools to assess a student's specific areas of content weakness so that we can maximize the use of our time together. When there are content gaps, I help my students shore those up with uniquely memorable lessons and access to my library of content videos. I track my students' progress carefully with shared google documents, specific homework assignments, a review log, and flash cards. I am thrilled for the opportunity to be a part of your GRE journey - your success is my success!
