Worth every penny
I am a Leland coach myself (college prep, SAT tutor, essay writing) so I feel like I have a good sense for when a tutor is a good tutor. And I'll tell you that Marie is one of the best. I have recommended her to every single one of my friends and peers studying for the GMAT. I came to Marie after getting a 585 on my first attempt and after just 3 weeks of working together, I scored a 675 which places me in the 95+ percentile. She is organized and sharp and comes with a wealth of knowledge and resources. She caters to your learning ability and will help you meet your goals and deadlines. Absolutely worth every penny, I could not recommend her enough. She is an exceptional tutor and I do not say that lightly.

Fantastic GMAT coach
I contacted Hadi to get help in Verbal section of the GMAT. Being a non-native speaker, Verbal section has been the hardest section for me. But Hadi was able to identify my weak spots and developed a personalized plan to improve those areas. I can't thank him enough as I got 94th percentile in Verbal section an 645 overall. If you're looking for a GMAT coach - look no further! Can't recommend him enough!

Most Time Efficient, Supportive & Knowledgeable Coach!
Marie taught me all the tips and tricks helping me overcome the wall I hit after 4 months of studying. In just a few weeks, she helped me exceed my score goals for Deferred MBA! She created a super helpful study plan, with a bunch of great homework and resources. Super engaging lessons and she has pre-recorded lessons to help you go through content faster, basically adapting to literally anyone's needs. She is incredible across quant, verbal, and data, which few other coaches can truly help you with at the same time. She was the first person I texted after receiving my score. WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BEST All-Around - improved score 40 points!!
I came to Marie with a 625 and, in just three weeks, she took me to a 665!!! Would NOT have been possible without her and I reached my Deferred MBA score goal! I had free intro calls with 6 other tutors but she was the one person that immediately took our chat as a way to structure the coming weeks. I knew she was the right person to work with from the beginning! 100% worth the price, and she gives you all the homework and resources you need to get there. I had maxed out TTP, Gmat ninja videos, and official guide resources, but Marie was the literal light and guidance I needed to overcome the wall I hit. She's super knowledgeable, also has an incredible personality, gave me the best pep talk before our session. Marie is a MUST for anyone (even those like me with just 3 weeks until the deadline -- Marie made it possible)!!

Incredible Coach, saved my GMAT score
Marie is such a special coach. I came to Marie after plateauing with another coach, only a month before my deadline while feeling helpless and anxious. Marie turned things around for me entirely. She's extremely efficient with the coaching time and ensures high yield results. She helped me increase my score 3x more than my previous coach in 1/2 the time. Incredibly grateful to have worked with her and cannot recommend Marie enough!!!

Thank you Jennifer!
I had a fantastic experience working with Jennifer as my GMAT Focus tutor. She was incredibly supportive, communicative, and knowledgeable across all three sections of the GMAT, with a particular strength in verbal. We started with an introductory session where she helped me create a structured plan of action. I initially scored a 545 on my first GMAT attempt and needed to improve to the 615–645 range within 3–4 months. Thanks to Jennifer’s guidance, I scored a 635 on my second attempt and a 645 on my final attempt. Her extensive question bank for all sections was a game-changer. Our sessions focused on reviewing challenging questions, refining strategies, and learning effective test-taking techniques. She was always approachable, patient, and encouraging, making the entire process much more manageable. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone looking to tackle the GMAT Focus. Thanks again, Jennifer!

Boosted my GRE verbal by 5 points in 3 weeks!
Avi provided highly personalized GRE verbal coaching for me in a very compressed timeline of 3 weeks during the end of the year. In each of our lessons, he targeted the areas I needed to improve, including mastering the verbal section, overall test taking strategies and anxiety reduction. Plus, the homework he assigns is very high quality in preparing you for test day. Thanks to Avi, I went from a 157 to 162 in GRE verbal!

Josh’s Dedication Goes Above and Beyond Expectations
Josh went above and beyond in helping me prepare for the GMAT, not just on the technical side but also with the mental strategies needed to succeed. His 1:1 sessions kept me accountable and focused, while his ability to break down complex concepts made everything feel manageable. What truly stood out was how invested he was in my success—our mock analysis sessions were game-changers, as Josh taught me how to think like the test-maker and approach each question strategically. Thanks to his guidance, I saw a significant increase in my score. I couldn’t have done it without him!
