Ryan Li

Kenny has been tutoring me for the ACT for a couple years. He is extremely patient and knowledgeable which has allowed rapid improvements in my scores. When I get a question wrong, we work to understand how to get to the correct answer. Kenny uses a variety of tools and strategies to improve scores. Kenny’s experience and multiple strategies has helped me achieve a score I never would have achieved without him. I highly recommend him to anyone who wants to improve their score.

I found Kenny's services online and after speaking to him, I felt he was the right resource to help my son prepare for this exam. In the last four months of tutoring, my son's prep test scores has increased dramatically. I am more than pleased with my son's progress. Kenny's methodology has managed to keep my son engaged and looking forward to tutoring. I also appreciate Kenny's candor in his feedback of my son's progress. I would recommend him to anyone interested in preparation for the SHSAT.

I worked with Kenny for about a year and a half to improve my ACT score. He was amazing and super helpful every step of the way. I would definitely recommend Kenny to anyone who is looking for an engaged tutor who really personalizes their methods to your specific areas of strength/weakness. His teaching methods and schedule were perfect for me, and I really couldn't have gotten the score I did without him. Thank you!

I always knew I wanted my daughter to attend one of the specialized high schools, preferably Stuyvesant or Brooklyn Tech. I reached out to Kenny Tan who did an initial assessment test that my daughter scored 262, failing horribly. I was worried and concerned about her possibilities getting into Stuyvesant or Brooklyn Tech, but Kenny assured me that he will get her to where she needed to be and worked with her for one year leading up to her big test. The experience during that year was easy And pleasant, Kenny was always patient, understanding, professional, super knowledgeable and understanding of the process of this test more than anyone else in my opinion, and most of all one of the best teachers. He always made learning easy to follow and understand. With that being said, the big day finally arrived, and on March 7 both my daughter and I very anxiously but optimistically open up her acceptance letter to learn that she was accepted into her second choice, BROOKLYN TECH. Kenny kept his promise and now my baby has the brightest future. THANK YOU Kenny.

Kenny Tan is the only tutor you ever need to call for the SHSAT and the ISEE.

We booked Kenny for 20 x 1 hour sessions for our son for the SHSAT and his scores went from 459 to 601.

Kenny tutored him for 5 hours for the ISEE and he scored 9, 8, 9, 9 on the test improving exactly as follows:

Verbal Reasoning - from 82nd Percentile to 96th PercentileReading Comprehension - from 83rd Percentile to 90th PercentileQuantitative Reasoning - from 93rd Percentile to 99th PercentileMathematics Achievement - from 81st Percentile to 96th Percentile

Kenny is the ultimate professional.  He is flexible with scheduling, on time and doesn't waste a moment.  He gives homework & knows how to pinpoint exactly what areas need focus & doesn't let anything slip through the cracks. He is extremely knowledgeable about the way the SHSAT and ISEE tests work, test time management skills etc.

Kenny Tan checks every box!!!  Thanks to Kenny our son is going to Stuyvesant which is his first choice high school in the fall.

We will be calling Kenny again for our other children. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

Thank you Kenny!!!

My kids managed to get the desired outcome due to Kenny Tan's tutoring.
We are very pleased with the overall experience. Recommend for any student taking SHSAT. My son got an offer letter from Stuyvesant High School with 5 months of tutoring sessions.

Kenny is a terrific tutor for my literal-minded child!

My son has been working with Kenny for six months in preparation for the SATs, and he has been feeling much more confident about the reading and writing portions of the test. Kenny is fantastic at customizing the workload to areas that need extra help or support. Kenny has high standards, great communication skills, and allows the student to engage in positive and meaningful ways. His friendly personality also encourages independence and collaboration.

Kenny is also knowledgeable about colleges and admissions, and is very up to date on current trends. So he is also a great resource for parents. Thanks for everything, Kenny!

We started using Kenny in the spring of 2023. He helped our son with both the ISEE and the SHSAT. We hired him based solely on his reviews and the consultation. We were so fortunate because Kenny was an amazing tutor for our son. He holds his students accountable. He explains how to come up with the correct answer. He gives them enough work to make sure that they will have sufficient test prep before the exam. Our son crushed both the ISEE and the SHSAT. He got accepted to three top 5 boarding schools and his first choice of specialized high school. Kenny will allow your student to have options when it comes to high school.
