(1) SAT/ACT and ISEE/SSAT test prep. Important as they may be, test-taking techniques on…
Testimonials
Paul B. from Stamford, CT I have just finished a tutoring from Andrei and I must say I am completely impressed both with his teaching style and his depth of knowledge. I think that you would not be able to find a better tutor.
Daniela W. from Ridgefield, CT Very happy with Andrei as my daughter's math tutor, he is very patient, explains very clearly difficult concepts, very encouraging and very helpful.
Nelya B. from Middlebury, CT Great tutor!! Andrei was preparing our child for Math part of SAT and ACT. He is very knowledgeable and explains difficult concepts clearly, very patient. We were very impressed with the results. Our child score was in a top 2% on SAT and top 3% on ACT. I do not think you can find a better tutor. I would definitely recommend Andrei!!
Soren (student) R. from Stamford, CT Andrei is quite exceptional. His passion for teaching math is more than just getting the right answers. It's changing the way his students think of math in the traditional sense and allowing them to embrace concepts in the simplest of ways so that the language of math becomes fluent within them. The numbers flow and fall into place and the correct answer is all that is left on the paper.
Peter S. from Danbury, CT Andrei brings a unique perspective to the process of learning mathematics. He is adept at encouraging the ability to conceive and calculate solutions to problems mentally, ultimately aiming to eliminate the need for figuring things out on paper or with the use of a calculator. The student must invest in himself/herself by agreeing to practice between sessions; by looking back at the processes of mathematical applications Andrei has introduced during the face-to-face inspection, discussion of the SAT math modules.
Diviya M. from New Canaan, CT Andrei tutored my two daughters ages 10 and 12 for two years. I feel truly blessed to have found him through Wyzant. Not only is he an extremely well-educated mathematician, but he also clearly loves to teach children. It was not clear during the tutoring sessions who was having more fun, Andrei, or my daughters. His vast knowledge was put to good use in explaining, elaborating, and extrapolating in a way I could never hope to emulate. He was able to teach the girls new concepts, but his real value was in teaching them to think about the broader ramifications of new discoveries, so that instead of just collecting an assortment of facts and rules, they were able to gain a deeper understanding overall. If we hadn't moved across the country, we would still be using him, and I would recommend him in a heartbeat to anyone, especially someone with talented math kids.
