Introduction: What sets me apart from other tutors is my proficiency with standardized math and science problems. Tutoring for 8 years, I'm quiet familiar with the content and format of the major college and graduate exams, scoring in the 98th percentile or above on the quantitative sections of the MCAT, GRE, GMAT, and AP tests. Additionally, I've been very successful with showing students the best way to read through, set up, and solve each problem in the most intuitive way possible. Beyond seeing students improve their grade, I always enjoy keeping them calm and focused.

I was struggling in Calc II and first test did not go well. After working with Charles, I'm beginning to really understand the material and I almost doubled my test score.

I first contacted Charles after sitting for my GMAT exam and being disappointed with my score. I thought I could do much better and after reading reviews of his tutoring work, I decided he would be best to help me improve my score. I was hoping Charles could show me where I was struggling because I felt I had a good handle on the material before each exam before. I purchased multiple GMAT tools from all the top courses, but apparently, I kept missing something. During my first session with Charles, he immediately knew how to solve each question efficiently, showing me multiple ways to arrive at the same answer. He also taught me mental math skills that saved me precious time in the difficult quant section. Charles was sincere in letting me know the amount of time and effort needed to score above 700. He planned out our sessions accordingly, making sure I mastered each topic before moving on. I appreciated how Charles set up our classes with short drill sets to test the concepts he taught me and if I continued to struggle with them, we would review until my understanding was concrete. After working with Charles three times a week for two months, I saw a 150 point increase in my official GMAT score. I would recommend Charles to anyone who plans on taking the GMAT or any other standardized exam.

Charles is an excellent tutor! He was professional, helpful, and radically improved my math score for the GRE. If I had to take the test again, I would absolutely hire Charles again (but thankfully, I don't, because he helped me so much the first time around!). If you're looking for a tutor to help you achieve real results, you've found him.

Charles Perkins exceeded expectations in every way. His professional demeanor and quiet certitude created an unexpected calm oasis in our home that lasted long after he had departed the room. We all looked forward to his visits. My son felt confident about the pre-calc he had previously been completely uncertain about. I recommend Charles Perkins without reserve.
