“I just got my ACT scores back, and I’m finally finished with the big test. I got a 35!! Thank you so much for preparing me so well and spending so much time preparing with me, I really can’t thank you enough!! It was truly a pleasure working with you.”
“My tutor from IVY Link is a true SAT wizard! Cory taught me how to solve complex SAT problems in the most time efficient manner. She also explained to me difficult formulas in a way that even an elementary school student can understand. My tutor not only equipped me with beneficial tips and strategies but also helped me learn how to use them alongside the knowledge I already possessed. I am forever grateful to my tutor for helping me regain my confidence, raise my SAT score, and keep my college aspirations alive. If you are being prepped or will be prepped by Cory, you are in luck.”
“Thankfully, Cory had taking the SATs down to a science, and she was able to teach me how to do the same in the quickest and most effective manner possible. By the time I sat down to take the test I had been so well prepared that not only did I feel like the exam was a walk in the park, but I felt like I had already seen every type of question that was on it. Cory knew all of the tricks that the test writers would try to confuse me with, and taught me easy ways to keep myself from getting tripped up on those types of questions. What the College Board doesn’t want you to know is that there is a method to their madness; it doesn’t require an infinite amount of wisdom to master the test. What it does take is knowledge of the specific set of skills that the SAT is designed to test, and Cory taught me those skills.”
