Hi Sandy,

It was so great to see you on Sunday. Our time together was very informative. We were both impressed with your knowledge of our daughter and of course, this whole process. Thank you for getting her off to such a great start to her junior year.

Best,

T.S.

She did well on SATs and her GPA is really high. She got a fantastic academic scholarship to Penn State main campus where she’ll be majoring in Biobehavioral Health, planning to go into PT or OT eventually.  She was also accepted to all of her other schools, including a great offer at University of Pittsburgh.   She’s very happy with her selection. Thank you!

Sandy,

Thanks for all of your help. I think you were the perfect tutor for our son!. 

He was accepted to Penn State and Elon- Presidential Award scholarship from Elon also-got into Lafayette, Bucknell and Penn State. Pretty sure Elon will be his choice. I'm very happy about Elon. Happy New Year!

Hi Mrs. Aprahamian! 

I just got back from South Carolina this morning because I went down for U of SC's admitted students day. I now plan on going there which is very exciting!! I was between Fordham and UD. I wouldn't be here without all your help so thank you again for your tutoring services. 

Sincerely,

J.W.

Sandy,

Thank you so much!! I'm super excited for august:) Thank you for all your help, it definitely helped set me up to get into Pitt!!

Hello Mrs. Aprahamian,

I just received my ACT scores the other day and wanted to share them with you. I got a 35! I am quite happy with the results. My scores for each section are attached below. I wanted to thank you again for your help in my preparation for this test. 

B.G.

Sandy,

He just got accepted to Neuman with a $15k scholarship.  Thank you for all of your help. We couldn’t have done any of this without you!

C.R.

Hi Sandy!

I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

I just wanted to send you a quick note to let you know that he received his acceptance to Penn State last week!  He was accepted into the College of Engineering for Fall 2020.  As you know this was his goal, so he is very excited!  

Thank you so much for your help with his SAT Prep!

D.M.

Sandy,

 He left last night for MECO and he likely did not have time to email you with the good news.  He will reach out to you early next week. He was notified yesterday morning that he was accepted to the Smeal School of Business at PSU.  It was his number one choice and he has already accepted the offer.

 Thank you for all you did for him.  I am not sure if he let you know that he was able to get his best single day score up by 100 which was important from a Penn State perspective.

I used to read the emails you sent him after each of your sessions and I thought they were fabulous and on the mark. Best wishes for a great Holiday Season.

Warmest regards,

K.D.

Sandy. Just a quick note to let you know how much we appreciate the work you have done with our son. Other than by us (which doesn’t count) he has never been told he is smart before. Also since the very first teacher conference we have heard that when he locks in he is as bright as can be and we have tried to find ways to get him to lock in even when he doesn’t want to! But I think you have been able to show him the difference it makes. Thank you and have a great weekend.

S.Z.

Hi Sandy,

Just a quick note to say thank you again for helping him get ready for the ACT. My boys are definitely responsive to your methods! He added his scores to the EDNavigators site, so hopefully you have seen them, but he was really thrilled to have done so well.  

J.S.

She just got a 1560 on her SAT.  She took it 3 times and improved each time!  She is going to Univ. of Pittsburgh on a full scholarship for her academic and leadership background!  Thanks so much!!!

J.B.

Thanks again for all of your help! He is a very low key kid of few words, but he did say how great you are and how much you’ve helped him. He’s definitely made good progress with his scores

Really appreciate your flexibility and the resources you make available to the kids.

He has said how wonderful you are to work with, thank you! I welcome any and all suggestions.

Stay safe and healthy!

All the best,

M.V.

Hi Sandy, I wanted to let you know I went up 250 points on the SAT and have gotten most of my college decisions back! I ended up applying to Penn State, Saint Joseph's (SJU), Temple, University of Maine, University of Maryland, Pitt, University of Tampa, and West Chester! I've gotten into all of the ones I've heard back from. However, I am still waiting to hear from the University of Maryland. Thank you so much for helping me with everything!

Sandy, THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! No words can express the positive emotions we felt after our meeting with you. You got to know our daughter so well and your presentation and proposed plan for her not only eliminated our anxiety about the college process, but also got us all excited about the process moving forward. I haven't seen her smile so big for a long time. We can't wait to explore the colleges, majors and careers you recommended as fits for her. I feel like 'thank you' isn't enough.  C.C.
