Maureen is an excellent tutor. We were fortunate that she was able to tutor all three of our kids - over a span of 8 years on both the SSAT and SAT. After working with Maureen, each of our children did significantly better on the standardized tests. A very experienced tutor, Maureen is smart, organized, creative and really seems to love working with kids - and they love working with her. She created a comfortable and supportive learning environment for each of our kids. By teaching them techniques and strategies in such a clear and effective way, Maureen helped them to stay focused and not overwhelmed. She boosted their confidence and, subsequently, helped them boost their test scores. Over the years, we have been so grateful for Maureen's kindness, patience, encouragement and enthusiasm as she helped our children navigate the standardized tests. Needless to say, you really can't get a better tutor than Maureen. I absolutely recommend her!

Helen helped me so much with my genetics class - she helped me understand complex topics by breaking them up into manageable, smaller concepts and was super patient with me during her explanations. She also helped me improve my essay writing skills in both an academic and professional capacity

I was struggling with Chemistry in High school when I got in touch with Iraj at KK Tutoring, I wasnt sure what I was looking for but i just needed help with tests and basic concepts since I was having a hard time grasping the basics and an even harder time remembering anything. I was doing horrible in my class tests and was very worried. I got connected to an amazing tutor who helped me every step of the way! She was available on text at anytime and she'd do multiple revisions with me until I would precisely remember the content. I'll be taking tutoring from the same tutor in senior year too!
