About Sam
We've proven our Virtual model on our website from students from previous schools.
I started out contracted by another company, and then realized the impact I was making to bring hope to students and their parents. Parents want the best for their kids...there's no argument there. However, to get the student motivated is another story. That's what I specalize in...how to connect a student to a course / subject matter and to enjoy it or relate to it! : )
Yes, that is quite possible! #drumroll
I have helped students get into the IVY leagues and other colleges of their dreams, mentored them on how to make good choices, and the response has been stellar. I was getting 20 tutoring requests a week. Then I started group tutoring.
Our business specializes in creativity, group collaboration, participation and overall improvement. We have the best tools on the internet and we want to share them with you. WE ONLY DO GROUP TUTORING!
Sam - public speaker, writer, consultant, tutor and strategiest. Here is my profile - (concealed information)
The way I tutor is that I guide the students to figure out the right answer themselves. Students feel happy, proud and confident when they’ve figured it out themselves. It elevates them, and I do that for all of my students.
Successful students are those that truly understand the material, and “shake things up” a bit to figure out another angle to the problem. Instructing is good, but guiding them to the answer is better because now I know they are self-sufficient!
This makes me a better tutor too because I constantly think of different techniques and different angles to help them understand the answer.
I realized I was good at it, and I've been tutoring since I was in high school.
People tell me I'm good with words, out of the box thinker and the ability to captivate and audience with story telling.
So, I thought I'd give it a try. Here I am! : )
As an independent tutor I get requests all the time for SAT, ACT, math, science and other courses.
My tutoring skills are one of a kind, and I help students relate to the subject matter so they become self-sufficient.
I have two masters degrees, and I graduated with Physics and Biomedical science backgrounds. You can see on my portfolio link! : )

This lets me gauge where their strengths and weaknesses are. I also like to learn who they are, what they do and what they aspire to me because it's all personality based. This helps me learn their learning curve.
"special needs," high school, middle school and college.
I've tutored - writing, college essays, entrance exams, SAT, ACT, medical technology, and just about any course that has been given to me out of request.
I've tutored international students, athletes, cheerleaders, gamers, etc.
Get to know your tutor's strengths and weaknesses, ask as many questions as you can, take practice tests and work hard.
Studying is a lot like sports. You develop muscle memory from training in sports a lot. Test preparation is the same way. It becomes automated in your brain after much exposure.
I had a Hispanic student in Arizona where he was looking to get into Stanford and / or MiT. I tutored him for 3 months, got him to 1390- 1400 score, and made his family very happy.
He just had an interview with MiT a week ago. He was astonished with my methods thinking he couldn't get any better than he already was.
My students on average score 1300+ on the SAT
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Is my goal realistic? What are the ways for me to get there? Do you have alternatives? Can you teach it to me in a different way? Can you draw it out for me?

He's a cool person who goes in deep when you don't understand a problem and is nice and joyful
He was really patient and nice, his methods really helped me in completing what I believed to be difficult but it turns out it was easy. He made me really enthused and I really enjoy working with him
Working through FlipSetter and with my tutor has helped me gradually by being able to easily identify my mistakes. Identifying certain mistakes, such as in math or English, have helped me to further understand how I can solve problems correctly. Mr. Krishnan has been a great tutor by guiding me through the SAT by making me identify my own mistakes and guiding me through the correct process and strategy to attain the desired test score.
Good Tutor! Very knowledgeable and helpful.
He really helps explain topics that I'm struggling with. He makes sure I understand why something is correct and how I'll be able to answer questions like those correctly in the future. While tutoring with him, I have grown and learned a lot.
knowledgeable, professional and personable
Sam was fantastic. I was studying for SAT. I've been through many tutors, and then was referred to Sam. I saw that he has a 4.9 / 5.0 star rating on his tutoring profile from another site. He has a very unique way of teaching, and I liked studying with him. Great personality. He increased my score 250 points on the SAT. I got 1300+ - 10/15/19
Sam is a very helpful tutor. I needed help with gen chem. We started by him looking at my school curriculum. He asked me where I was having difficulty. I showed him. He helped me understand stoichoimetry and stuff. Turns out, I just didn't know where the numbers came from in the formula. He pointed it out. Thank you, Sam
Hello. I'm from India. English is a second language for me, and was very difficult. I was studying for English Comp in college. I connected with Sam because he is also my background. He helped me focus on essay writing. We mapped out basic formulae for me to follow. I recommend him.
