I highly recommend AJ Tutoring. Joseph was very patient with my son teaching him AP Calc CB. My son was able to get an A in his class and understood all the concepts with practice and proper guidance. I am so grateful that he was able to help him. Thank you for everything.
We used AJ Tutoring for our daughter's SAT preparation. AJ's staff are very professional, and were extremely effective at identifying the best learning methodologies for our daughter, allowing her to make great progress and achieve her goals. We are considering AJT for tutoring in AP course material as well. A big thank you and well done to Eva who is an amazing educator, and of course to the entire AJT team.
We went with AJ tutoring initially because of its proximity to our home. My daughter’s SAT tutor was Kyle and he was wonderful. Scheduling was easy and accommodating. The content was helpful and what I appreciated the most was that after my daughter took her first SAT, Kyle (and Andrew) reached out for feedback to improve their training. This real time attention to what’s currently being tested on helped tailor their tutoring sessions. Which, in turn, helped her score improve the second time she took the test.
