Testimonials!

"Our son's sessions with Amy Fortsch exceeded our goals. Ryan's October scores went up 220 points. We'll be thanking his guidance counselor for the referral and calling again in three years for our other son. We already referred another family to Amy."

-Kathy Macioch, West Babylon, NY

"My wife and I truly can't thank you enough on suggesting Amy... These past 6 months have flown by so quickly and money well spent.. Amy has instilled into Jackie outstanding study habits and such habits have brought about Jackie getting into the National Honor Society."

-Tina and Doug, East Islip, NY

"Amy Fortsch has worked with my daughter for the past year preparing her for the SAT and ACT exams. She has been a wonderful teacher and has prepared my daughter extremely well for this high stakes test.  She taught my daughter how to effectively work and think through this test. After my daughter took the test for the first time, she expressed to me how she could not have made it through the math section without Amy's support and guidance. Her scores increased each time she took the test. My son will be going through this process next year and I know Amy will be a great support for him as well."

-Barbara Draghi, Islip, NY

"Amy provided support and guidance with my son's SAT test, Math B and most importantly guided him throught the college application process. The end result: my son was accepted to the college of his choice. I would recommend Amy."

-Jeff Weiss, Nesconset, NY

" My son was a straight A honor student so I just assumed he would do well on his SATs.  Was I surprised when after two attempts at the PSATs he barely broke 1000. We looked into taking the standard courses at Kaplan and Learning Center, but my son's schedule was already overwhelming with school and sports. Amy was the perfect answer. She came to our home for 1.5 hours on Sundays for approximately 10 weeks. She worked with my son on test taking strategies such as finding which questions to answer, timing each section and reading critically. Successful? My son ended up with 1250 (710 on Math!) and a 1900 overall on all three sections. He would have never had the confidence to achieve these scores without Amy's help. He is currently applying to schools such as Syracuse U., Penn State, Villanova and Northeastern."

-Louise Ryan, West Islip, New York

"My daughter is an excellent math and science student, but struggled with the critical reading and writing sections. Her sophomore year PSAT scores clearly demonstrated this. We knew one on one tutoring would work best for her. Amy started working with her the summer before her junior year, and we were thrilled to see her scores increase all around. She came to our house 2 hours a week throughout the summer and part of junior year. Amy coached her on how to take the tests as well as tutored her on the subjects she needed more help with. We used Amy for both the SAT and ACT tests, and were thrilled with her final scores: Critical Reading - 610, Math - 710 and Writing - 640. Her ACT composite is a 30, with a 33 in Math! And, best of all, Amy's help and advice allowed her to meet all the test requirements prior to her senior year, which alleviated a lot of stress around college application time. She's already heard from two schools, and received a merit scholarship on $19,000 a year from one! Getting the early acceptances has made the rest of senior year a pleasure. We're still waiting to hear from Tufts, Carnegie Mellon and others. Amy was flexible with our schedule and was able to relate really well to my daughter. I don't think she would have been comfortable in a group setting or with an older tutor."

-Faye Wolfson, Plainview, NY

"Amy is great - she understands both the academic and psychological side of taking the SAT, and is able to address the individual concerns each student has in order to help them get the score they need. She approaches test taking in a practical way, breaking it down so the students know exactly what to expect, and exactly how to take the test to get their best possible score. My daughter learned material for the test, but more importantly, she gained the confidence she needed to raise her score by more than 200 points! I've recommended Amy to others, and they all agree she is the best!"
