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.

My situation was unique. I had serious epileptic seizures during high school resulting in multiple brain surgeries and a long, challenging recovery. Matt entered my life during this time; I still had assignments to complete before graduation and an impending SAT exam, so I met with Matt twice a week and learned the essential concepts of writing and reading comprehension. While math was my strong suit, Matt helped me identify some earlier math concepts that needed refreshing. My initial SAT score prior to my relationship with Matt was 1260, but, after tutoring, I received a 1510 and was accepted by my school of choice for pre-med studies. I continue to meet with Matt two or three times per week during my undergraduate studies for more advanced writing strategies. I cannot imagine a better academic mentor than I have found with Matt.

Ms. Diane is absolutely amazing. She was recommended when my son needed tutoring to increase his score on the SAT. My son was applying to a military academy and needed a higher SAT score to be competitive. With only two months to retake his SAT, combined with sports, regular school work, and school activities, Ms. Diane willingly took this challenge on and worked my son into her tutoring schedule. She was patient and caring, had a plan, was on time, and was very good at diagnosing what he needed to work on. As a result, he increased his score by 40 points in only two months with her tutoring assistance. This score was exactly what he needed to be competitive. I can only imagine what his score could have increased to if he worked with her earlier. I can't sing her praises enough. With her tutoring, she played a significant role in his acceptance to a military academy prep school. Thanks to her contributions, he is thriving at a military prep school and doing well. He is happy and looking forward to attending a military academy next year.

My son’s sessions with SoFlo are excellent and efficient. The tutor quickly developed a good rapport with my son and got a lot of work done in one hour. I have been using them for 3 months and plan to use SoFlo for the whole school year
