With Paige’s expert test-taking tips and guidance, our daughter’s Math score jumped from the 44th percentile to the 88th percentile! Out of 800 possible points, she got 752! Paige has a solid understanding of SSAT Math, and in my opinion, it would behoove anyone to take advantage of her expertise.

MATH/QUANTITATIVE (2 SECTIONS, 50 QUESTIONS)

    • 5 best math SSAT strategies across problem types

    • Review of must-know math content, including linear equations, radicals, geometric shapes and factoring

    • Key math formulas to memorize by test day

We had an ambitious goal when we found Paige – we wanted our 7th grader, Katie, to take the SAT and qualify for Johns Hopkins/CTY with only a few months to prepare for the test. Not only did Katie easily qualify for CTY with an SAT math score of 600, a year later she scored a perfect 800 on the SSAT math section and raised her SAT math score an additional 150 points. These scores would not have been possible without weekly lessons with Paige. She is a phenomenal tutor and we are extremely grateful to have found her. I refer everyone I know to her and they all love her.

Paige is a terrific coach and role model. Our daughter was very anxious about the math portion of the SSAT and Paige’s clarity, consistency and support made a huge difference. Not only did our daughter’s SSAT score rise dramatically but Paige’s explanation of study techniques and test-taking strategies made the standardized testing experience less intimidating. Paige is an excellent teacher, a dedicated professional and a dream to work with for both kids and parents. She has my highest recommendation.
