About this tutor
We are exceptional SAT and ACT tutors that develop a personalized strategy tailored to your child's strengths and weaknesses. Our founder Adam Shlomi had an 800 in Reading and 770 in Math on the SAT -- good for the 99th percentile on both sections, went to Georgetown University, and has been tutoring for five years. We also offer free tutoring to those in need — money shouldn’t stop someone from achieving their dreams.
We analyze your student through a free diagnostic test and then create a personalized strategy that will focus on their weak points and teach the tricks of the SAT/ACT. With this SoFlo method, our average student improves 150 points after 10 sessions.
Tutoring is incredibly rewarding. All our lessons are one-on-one which allows us to make real bonds with our students. The chemistry between student and tutor helps us motivate, inspire, and teach students with a new level of effectiveness. We are also able to help students in need through our SoFlo SAT Scholarship.

True experts! SoFlo knows the SAT incredibly well and was able to pass on lessons and tricks to my son who improved 310 points on his SAT from a 1240 to a 1550 over the course of 4 months. SoFlo gave my son a ton of curriculum. He needed a set structure and study plan to succeed, otherwise it would be hard to keep him focused. Every week he was studying from real SAT past exams, a free video course, and plenty of 1-on-1 tutoring to give him the skills to be break 1500. My son is very bright but not confident, and his tutor Brian worked with him to gain confidence and have the right mindset for success. SoFlo has changed the direction of my son’s life and now he will have so many more opportunities. I’m so thankful to have found and his team. They are amazing!!

SoFlo improved my son's SAT score by 200 points in only 3 months! I found SoFlo SAT Tutoring on tutors.com and they were quick to respond plus there were no contracts so I gave them a shot even though I had not heard of the company before. The founder Adam was knowledgeable and friendly on our initial phone call and getting started was easy, just filling out a simple form. They had my son Greg take a diagnostic test to gauge his initial strengths and weaknesses. From there a polite young tutor reached out and began scheduling session. My son is always very busy because he is on the soccer team, but our tutor Charlie was very flexible and scheduled sessions at my son's convenience. We met with Charlie once a week for two hours over the course of about 3 months. I was able to track my son's progress because he was always doing practice tests for homework. His score was steadily climbing from week to week, and we were confident that he was going to improve his SAT score. After taking the SAT we decided to pause sessions thinking that we should wait until we see how Greg did on his test. Adam completely understood and did not pressure us to continue sessions. When the scores came out Greg improved over 200 points and scored a 1430 on the SAT. Tutoring is the best money I've ever spend and every step of the way SoFlo has been great to work with. I'm so appreciative!

I don't usually write reviews but SoFlo's work was truly outstanding. My family has worked with other tutoring companies before, but this one has been the best by far. The price was reasonable and my daughter loved working with her tutor Matthew. Matthew kept me updated on how she was doing and what they were focusing on in their tutoring sessions. She felt herself getting better at the test and this was reflected in her final score. My younger son is currently tutoring with Matthew and I expect the same amazing results. SoFlo does great work and I highly recommend them for anyone looking for test prep.

I went up 150 points in only 6 weeks of studying. SoFlo is the real deal. They teach from real SAT practice tests so I knew what to expect on test day. It was super simple to get started and my tutor was great. Savannah goes to University of Pennsylvania and gave me all her tips for the SAT. I just my score back and I couldn't be happier
