Introduction: PLEASE NOTE MY RATE. Serious inquiries only, please: *SERVICES*: -SAT + ACT Prep (all sections) -Undergraduate and Graduate Admissions -Personal Statements -Professional Cover Letters + Resumes -And more! Hello! I am an experienced and highly trained private professional tutor of 10 years, specializing in all sections of the SAT, ACT, and all aspects of College Admissions Prep. I am a Princeton graduate where I was an English major. I scored a 2350 out of 2400 on my SAT: 800 Reading, 800 Writing, 750 Math. LOGISTICS: I am based in Manhattan and I use Facetime or Zoom. I am very well-versed in remote tutoring as I have tutored exclusively remotely for many years, well before COVID-19. I am flexible as I tutor all 7 days a week. I provide all of the necessary materials. DISCOUNT: *Because of these challenging times with COVID and the current economic climate, I am pleased to offer big discounts.* Test Prep sessions are the standard 1.5 hrs and are prorated. One HIGHLIGHT of my test prep: I pride myself on having a lengthy list of important tricks and strategies that you are highly unlikely to find elsewhere as I have developed most of them myself. In fact, it is not uncommon that my students' scores improve an equivalent of 80-110 points on the SAT/3-4 points on the ACT after just ONE session. ADMISSION RESULTS: with my test prep and college admission prep, I am thrilled to have helped over 400 students over the years who have gained admission to top schools like Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Northwestern, UMichigan, Dartmouth, Amherst, Carnegie Mellon, Cornell, UPenn, and Tufts among likely every college (across ALL tiers) that you have heard of (please see more in my photos below). I stand by my work 100% and look forward to impressing my clients. I hope to help and discuss further!

I highly recommend Caroline. She provided excellent insight on the entire college process, helped with SAT and ACT prep as well as outstanding essay feedback. My daughter was accepted to UVA last month and we are grateful for Caroline’s guidance every step of the way.

If you are looking for SAT/ACT test prep, look no further. Caroline is a gifted tutor with great tips and tricks; she helped my son get a perfect 36 (E: 36, M: 36, R: 36, S: 36) on the ACT (first try). My son is bright and things usually come easy to him so he’s not the hardest working kid out there but Caroline managed to motivate him to put in the necessary work for a perfect score. On top of it all, Caroline is a very honest and ethical individual who always has you and your kid’s best interests in mind. Additionally, she is extremely flexible and adapts to the needs of your kid. She saved us tremendous amounts of time and money with the accommodations she made for my son. We will be hiring Caroline for college admissions counseling and for my daughter’s test prep. I can’t rave enough about Caroline; please feel to send me any questions as I am more than happy to answer. -RP

Absolutely LOVED working with Caroline! My biggest takeaway from working with her was college essays. She helped me take my essays from okay to amazing and dig deep into how I could differentiate my application from other students. I 110% recommend her to anyone who is looking for guidance on ACT/SAT and college applications!

My son studied for ACT with Caroline. We only had two months but she is highly seasoned at what she does and comes well equipped with effective coaching methods. My son was able to uplift his ACT score 3 full marks. I very much liked Caroline's iterative feedback loop process where she did not only assign my son challenging problems but also watched him solving and coached on effective methods to gradually improve. Above all this, she personally cares. I highly recommend Caroline!
