Zand has been an absolute gem. I originally hired him to help my son with Algebra, but after seeing how well they clicked, I booked him for SAT prep too. My son’s confidence has soared. He actually looks forward to tutoring, which I never thought I’d say about math. Zand has a rare gift for making things clear and engaging, and it’s obvious he truly cares about his students success.

Miles Smart tutoring is wonderful. They have a consultation to see what your need are and they match you with a tutor that they feel fits the student. They give multiple check-ins to see how you like the tutor, how things are going, and ask your opinions. They really listen. The Tutor Thomas Chicas and my son immediately had a great connection. Thomas was very patient and was such a great help with preparing for tests, exams, and homework. Thomas thoroughly gave detailed explanations when there were things that my son did not understand in Calculus and Physics. I am so glad I have such a good tutor for my son's next three years of college. I feel a sigh of relief now. Many students give up on school because they do not have the support they need. I went from getting multiple calls from my son being stressed out and defeated to now feeling confidant about his classes and looking forward to the next semesters. Miles Smart Tutoring is a lifesaver.

Ms. Olya helped me with both college essays and SAT tutoring. She is really kind and patient with the teaching process. I enjoyed conversing with her, and I learned how to properly edit my essays. She is very good at teaching how to convey your ideas through writing. She also helped me get over the 700s for SAT English by breaking down all core concepts. Most importantly, I was able to get into my top Ivy dream school!
