About

I have ten years of experience as a tutor and have helped my students achieve gains of 200 points on the new SAT, 4 points on the ACT, and one letter grade in their classes, on average. Between my results-obsessed test preparation, my superlative essay-editing services, and my success working with high-caliber students, I've helped kids get into Berkeley, Yale, and everywhere in between. To find out how you can get there, visit seattlesbesttutor.com/why-me, or read testimonials at seattlesbesttutor.com/testimonials. I’ve taught the sons and daughters of Fortune 500 VPs, State Supreme Court Justices, tech entrepreneurs, and more. You too? I teach to make learning more worthwhile and more fun for my students. I tutor to relieve anxiety and frustration and stress. I tutor to help my students spend less time on homework, and more time on the things they love to do. I promote a relaxing and comfortable environment. I encourage my students to ask questions about the material and their interests. I cultivate a disposition for curiosity. Working with me, students feel like themselves, can put each difficulty in the right context, and focus on solving it. I love helping people avoid the mistakes I made so they can go on to different and new and exciting ones of their own. I love meeting the people I meet through working. I love learning from my students. I love discovering the beautiful connections between all the disciplines I teach, and helping my students do the same.

My daughter was having difficulty with both test-taking and establishment tutoring options. It was important to find the right tutor for the SAT for her. With Chris, were confident we made the right choice, and will be working with him more in the future.

Chris Morris-Lent has helped my kids with everything from Pre-Calc and AP World History to ACT/SAT prep. He has a unique skill set with expertise in a wide range of subjects, along with the flexibility to alter his teaching style to best suit the student. He teaches not only academic subjects but also test-taking and studying strategies to streamline the students’ workload and improve test scores. Chris has a very relaxed style, with professional, high standards (in both business and tutoring).

Chris is a great teacher. I have a son who is very capable of doing all of his schoolwork but was cutting corners, which caused him to fail at math. Chris figured out the problem and how to overcome it right away. Now my son enjoys school more and is getting As!

I scored 155 on my GRE math practice test and panicked—I was a math major, and applying to Stats grad school! Chris tapped into the skills I thought I’d forgotten and I was able to get a score both I and my program were happy with.

Chris raised my son’s SAT math score by 150 points and gave him a better fundamental understanding of math at the same time. I no longer worry about how my son is going to do when he has to take a math course or test.

Chris has the right idea about math. My lucrative career as an actuary blossomed from a deep understanding of mathematics, a deep understanding that Chris demonstrates consistently. I can remember when math finally ‘clicked’ for me. I remember feeling so much regret at all the wasted time and emotion I had spent struggling in math courses up until that point. It can be so much easier. Anyone considering tutoring should definitely take the plunge. This guy gets it.
