Ariba H. says, "She really made sure that every concept I struggled with was addressed and that by the end of our time together were ones that i fully understood. She really puts her all into each lesson and never brushes over anything. She also never made me feel bad for not understanding anything which was really beneficial to me wanting to come into our sessions everyday. Overall she is an amazing tutor and I really wouldn't have improved my score as much as i was able to without her help." Read more

Vanessa L. says, "Andrea truly sees what our son needs help with, even if he has not figured out or articulated where he is needing help. She takes the time and care to observe and is adept at determining where their energy and focus is best spent. Whether that is drilling into the details of budgeting in math class, practicing presentation skills for his next project, or structuring his writing, she is able to flex her approach to meet him where he is, and help him to grow. She is such a positive force in his student life! Andrea truly cares and that makes such a huge impact on our son and on our family." Read more

Erica W. says, "Before selecting Great Expectations tutoring I shopped around looking at many well know tutoring companies. Many of the well known companies tried to oversell hours. I wanted an SAT math tutor to help improve my daughters score. She previously scored 590 and decided to retake the exam, one month before the next test date. Many companies tried to sell me upto 40 hours for math only test prep. Ben met with my daughter and assured me that the study plan he recommended would be sufficient for our overall goals. With one month of tutoring, my daughters score increased from 590 to 690. Additionally, my daughter is only a freshman in high school. We'll definitely use Ben again as she prepares to take the exam for college admission." Read more

I was referred through another family whose son got into UCLA after working with Ben. Ben helped my son improve 7 points on the ACT to a 33 score. Now my son is eligible for a lot of scholarships and has even gotten a full-ride offer from a few schools. I'm so grateful to Ben for being able to help my son - he is an awesome tutor!
