"When our son was struggling in math, we did everything we could to get him the help he needed. He had extensive assistance at school with a teacher as well as many private sessions with an established tutoring company. Nothing seemed to be helping as he fell further behind, and he started to give up.
Dr. Meangru began tutoring our son nearly a decade ago and was able to teach our son skills that still help him to this day. Our son is a senior now, about to graduate, no longer needs to be tutored in math and even took an additional elective math course this year to strengthen his college applications. We trust Dr. Meangru so much that we are now having our daughter tutored as well. Dr. Meangru is a wonderful educator that is truly gifted in mathematics. He is patient, dependable, and has the ability to adjust his approach with each of our children. He is a true professional that genuinely loves his work!

"Studying with Matthew was a breeze. I feared math since middle school, and felt blocked when even thinking about the GRE. Deciding to study with Matthew changed my approach. We clicked instantly!
As Matthew quickly identified my strengths and weaknesses, we profoundly proceeded through the study material - without overcomplicating the content. Most importantly, his relaxed teaching style encouraged me to trust my abilities and crack the GRE!"

"Matt was a fantastic tutor for the GMAT and GRE. I achieved an 80 point improvement on the GMAT and 10 point improvement on the GRE. I have interviewed at M7 US MBA programmes and am hoping for the best when results are released late Spring!
I highly recommend Matt as a tutor - he is very personable, patient, and tailors his programme to your development areas. I work in an investment bank and so had very little free time - Matt's flexibility to my schedule was much appreciated!"

"Matthew was very helpful and brought a positive attitude to class. We worked through exercises in a strategic manner, mimicking the structure of real-life tests. He helped me get the right momentum and I managed to get into my dream HSW MBA program.""

"Matthew tutored me for about 2 years. During this time, he not only supported my college journey but also helped me build confidence in math related material. Matthew is extremely patient and has great attention for detail. Despite working overseas, he was accommodating of last-minute meetings and worked around my school and work schedule. In summary, Matt is an outstanding tutor. "

"I got accepted to MIT as a member of class 2026. I'm very excited, humbled, and somewhat shocked. Thank you so much for helping me get there. Your math lessons not only prepared me for the SAT, but also helped me build a foundation for all of the math I'm doing now. "
