Private Tutoring
I meet with local students as well as students online to help them raise their SAT scores. As you can imagine, private tutoring allows for a customized approach to maximize SAT scores in any or each of the three areas.
The online option isn’t much different than in person as I use video and a live whiteboard. Tutoring packages available.
If you are interested in one-on-one tutoring, give me a call to check availability. I offer a free 30-minute session to anyone interested in online tutoring.
For more information about tutoring, including references, resume, etc., please visit my site dedicated to tutoring.
To your ever expanding abilities,

Check out what students and educators are saying about my private tutoring:
Our daughter can get very anxious about test-taking. Having Jason tutor her before she took her first SAT was the best thing we could have done! Jason has a wonderful rapport with his clients. Haley felt comfortable and at ease with his teaching style. Not only was her confidence boosted, but the pressure was off for us. She knew what to expect going in to the test and learned some valuable tools to help her approach. We were most impressed with her SAT essay score going from a 4 to a 10. To us, the experience for her and how she felt about herself was as important as the score. Tutoring with Jason was definitely money well spent. We highly recommend him! — Sue G., parent
I am a high school math teacher. I teach 10th/11th grade algebra and 10th grade geometry. I need to take and pass the Praxis II Content Knowledge Test. I have taken and have not passed. As I dont teach Calc/Functions I am having a very hard time with that section of the test. I will be sitting the test again in February and really NEED to pass it this time. My teaching certificate is dependent upon passing this test. [months later] I passed…..Scored a 138 and needed a 126…..Thank you for all of your help – I appreciate you fitting me into your busy schedule and I couldn’t have done it without your tutoring. — Caroline R., HS math teacher
His rapport with our entire family was both professional and fun! My son chose to focus mostly on math and his SAT score improved by 120 points. Is the money worth it??? I’d say, YES!!! Our whole family jumped when we opened the score report — Kathy P., parent
Jason helped me take my ‘average’ SAT score (1530) to a score I’m very happy with which is a 1720. My biggest gain was in math going from a 470 to 550. We laughed a lot every session too. My sister just needed help in math and her score went from a 470 to 570 after working with Jason. — Kristi H.
I was pretty disappointed to see my PSAT scores in math and writing so my mom found Jason. After some tutoring I took the real SAT as a junior and was shocked to see my math score improve by 100 points and my writing went up by 120! If I wanted to I could have studied some more and taken the SAT again senior year but I was happy enough to keep that score. — Noelle L.
I’ve been working with Jason on the SAT and for my math class. My PSAT showed math to be my lowest score at 430 and I was nervous about the essay so we worked on those two things. I just got my scores back and got 580 math and a 10 on the essay! So obviously tutoring is worth it. Now we’re going to get my reading and writing scores up before the next test. — Eddie B.
