I've helped over 1000 students achieve their top SAT and ACT scores using scientifically based strategies. After earning a perfect score twice and tutoring the test for 4 years, I'm confident that my approach works.

Cole is the best! He provides a low stress learning environment while equipping students for success on the ACT and SAT. Cole’s test strategies and instruction helped raise my daughter’s overall ACT score 5 points helping her become competitive with top universities. Not only is Cole an excellent tutor, he is a kind and compassionate guy! He has provided support and encouragement along my daughter’s journey to college. I am so grateful for Cole!
Cole has been amazing for both my daughter and son! He helped my daughter raise her ACT score several points in a short period of time and also improved her overall test-taking confidence. He also helped my son in several 8th grade courses such as Math, English and Spanish. He really knows how to connect with each student and provide them with strategies and skills to be successful on any test . We will use Cole for years to come!
Cole is an amazing tutor! He helped bring my daughter from her lowest ACT composite score of 27 to a 33 superscore! She brought her English score up to a 35! We had tried other more expensive tutoring programs, but she found them boring and her score didn’t budge. She saw Cole on Instagram and attended his free session the night before her next test, and just that session brought up her score significantly so we signed on for more tutoring with Cole! What she liked most about his method is that he provides real world strategies and explains things thoroughly and efficiently. He also provided lots of practice problems and resources. Cole is the BEST!
Cole was a huge help in raising my son’s math score by those stubborn last few points that he was aiming for. My son really enjoyed working with him and we will use him again for my daughter’s when the time comes
Cole was a lifesaver! He helped my daughter improve her score from a 1130 to 1300! He was super efficient with every single minute of their time together. My daughter was so impressed with his approach to preparing her for her 2nd test and was excited how much she learned! Cole is worth every penny and minute of your time!
Cole is the best! My daughter loves tutoring with him. She tutored for both SAT and ACT with Cole and he helped her improve her scores tremendously! Cole is so easy to work with and such a great communicator. He’s the only tutor my daughter truly enjoyed working with! I highly recommend Cole if your child needs to improve scores on ACT and SAT. He has a special gift for connecting with kids and providing them the tools needed for success!
