Ruby tutored me in the English and Mathematics subjects during middle school. She has patiently answered all my questions during each session and taught me strategies on how to tackle challenging problems from multiple angles. Her holistic approach has helped me prepare for standardized testing, such as the ACT. I did well in the ACT, scoring a perfect score on the Reading section and a composite score of 34. I currently attend Brown University, concentrating in Health and Human Biology. I highly recommend Ruby as she is an effective and professional tutor.

Highly recommend Ruby for SAT math tutoring. My son needed a math tutor for his SAT prep. Ruby understood my sons needs, reviewed chapter by chapter, which my son found to be very helpful. With her help my son was able to score 1550 on his SAT. We highly recommend anyone who is looking for SAT math tutoring give Ruby a try, we did and it paid-off big time.

Ruby is a hidden gem. My daughter needs extra help in the math portion of the SAT as her PSAT score showed a big discrepancy between her reading/writing and math scores. She was already enrolled in an SAT review class but I wanted to get her an extra boost with the math portion. Finding a math intensive SAT prep class is like finding a needle in a haystack. Enter Ruby Chen. She was very flexible with the schedule and her fee was very reasonable. She tutored my daughter at our home. My daughter is scheduled to take the SAT for the first time in March. She will be doing so with more confidence in her math abilities - thanks to Ruby. I will not hesitate to recommend Ruby to family and friends particularly for SAT Math tutoring.

The fall semester of my senior year was filled with working on college applications, trying to boost my SAT scores and balancing a few AP classes. I soon realized that it was going to be difficult to juggle these difficult classes while making time for SAT review. My family found a flyer which advertised Ruby Chen who had knowledge not only in the SAT math portion, but also in the difficult class I was in, AP statistics. I had never had a tutor before and mainly wanted to have help to review things we learned in class as well as help me boost my SAT math score. Not only did Ruby help me raise my math score almost 100 points, but she also helped me raise my grade in statistics, helping me pass the class and the AP test. Like I said, I didnt have much experience with a tutor, but Ruby was so patient and willing to take the time to help me understand the concepts. What I really appreciated about Ruby was that she would ask me what topics we were learning in a class that week and would bring notes and explanations that helped me better understand the material. If we were struggling on a certain problem she would rather stay over our scheduled time than leave my questions unanswered. I am so grateful that Ruby was able to come and help me out at a time that worked with my hectic senior year schedule and I could tell that she really cares about the success of her students.
