"Dr. Donnelly's way of teaching is very calm and effective. By teaching math in the simplest ways possible he managed to make it interesting and challenging at the same time. I am happy to report that I recently passed my TASC exam with a score of 90 percent."

"Great teacher! Great lessons! Dr. Donnelly loves to teach, is patient and motivates you to really put in the necessary work and attention to improve your math skills. Before I started lessons with Stuart, I was terrified of math but after an intensive 4-week course with Stuart, I ended up scoring a 89% on my final exam! Thank you so much Stuart. I couldn't have passed without your help!"

In addition, his advice with regard to strategy for the test has been invaluable. He is sincerely committed to student success and offers a personalized service with sound methodology. Within 3 months, her scores improved significantly. In addition to all his talents ... he is just one of those really smart people that can teach."

★★★★★

"Stuart is the kindest, most patient tutor I have ever encountered. No matter what your background is, Stuart's one-on-one approach is able to cater to the learning speed at which you need. This also enables you to pick and choose your areas of weakness. He is also extremely good about scheduling a time that is fit for you. I worked full-time and was still able to meet Stuart for weekly lessons after I got off work. Altogether, I'm very glad I found Stuart!"

K.S.F. Los Angeles, CA (online student)
★★★★★

"Dr. Donnelly is a wonderful teacher. He is quick to pinpoint weaknesses and, in many cases, turn them into strengths. He always has a structured lesson plan and pertinent homework assignments and puts aside time in the lesson to go over 'trouble problems' from the previous lesson. I highly recommend taking a prep course with him. His patience, humor, and kindheartedness makes an otherwise uncomfortable standardized test almost enjoyable."

Mia P. Manhattan, New York
★★★★★

"Dr. Donnelly was patient, kind and willing to work with me in various areas to help improve not just my score but my understanding of the questions. His schedule is flexible and he is willing to work with you to give you what you need. My score went up dramatically and I would recommend him to anyone."

Jodi B. Manhattan, New York
★★★★★

"Dr. Donnelly is patient and supportive and is clear when explaining questions that were challenging to me. He also urged me to work out questions on my own, which was extremely helpful. He created an atmosphere in which I looked forward to the challenge of each section on the practice tests, and I definitely felt more confident taking the test. If I need to prepare for another standardized test, I will definitely contact Dr. Donnelly."

Pauline E. Brooklyn, New York
★★★★★

"Dr. Donnelly has a real knack for explaining topics in plain English and for making them come alive with real-life examples. I would encourage anyone who needs to get up to speed in their preparation for studies to give Dr. Donnelly a call. You won't regret it!"

Mike H. Greenwich, Connecticut
★★★★★

"Dr. Donnelly helped me build my confidence, which improved my test taking substantially. I'm no longer afraid to break down complicated problems into simple concepts. He also reviewed concepts I didn't know in depth, asking questions to make sure I understood. I strongly recommend Dr. Donnelly, he made test preparation enjoyable and fulfilling."
