David took the ACT and SAT each only once after his tutoring, and he was accepted to Harvard. We'd love your very best tutor for our youngest now.
I took their ACT prep course and they helped me raise my score from a 26 to a 33! They knew exactly what I needed to practice and my tutor was outstanding. When I saw my score I was nearly in tears. I'm confident the change will be the difference between acceptance and rejection at my top-choice college.
My children have loved every tutor we have used from High Performance. The tutors have helped them excel in their studies in the classroom and helped them succeed on the AP, IB, ACT, and SAT exams!
We've used High Performance for two years. Victor helped my son with Chemistry — his grade went from a D to a B+, and he ended up liking the class. They've also tutored him in Algebra and for the ACT. They genuinely enjoy working with the kids, and the kids enjoy working with them!
Calling High Performance Tutoring was one of our best decisions after treading water with other options for our daughter's ACT. My daughter jumped 6 points on the ACT and felt great about her improvement. We'd highly recommend them for a motivated student eager to improve!
I've worked with Victor for over a year and I'm beyond satisfied with his expertise. He explains very thoroughly, and in a way that sticks! All A's on tests I study with him for. Highly recommended for subject tutoring and SAT/ACT prep.
Gopi is an amazing tutor — my son's ACT score went up 6 points, from a 28 to a 34. Thank you!
My daughter Hannah raised her ACT score from a 26 to a 33 after completing an intensive twelve-week training program with High Performance Tutoring. This score will open up so many doors for her!
A belated thank you to Liz for a semester of math tutoring. She essentially taught all of Algebra Honors II. My child received an A in the class and scored in the 99th percentile of the PSAT. We could not have done it without your kindness and teaching skills!
Ingo is incredible, and we are so grateful for all the hard work he does with our son. We feel so lucky to have him.
We've used High Performance Tutoring for two subjects, Calc and Chem, and have been very happy. The most important thing was for our son to feel confident, and that's exactly what happened. He came home saying, 'Now I get it.' Highly recommend.
