Jacob Harrison is great. He explains concepts well and teaches pretty well. I recommend him. Not only is he great, but he also is a fun guy with cool stories to tell too.

I had Justin Loh for my instructor. A very knowledgeable and humorous instructor, he was able to make studying for the SAT very fun while still effectively showing me how to handle seemingly difficult questions very manageable. Last summer, I took the self guided SAT course from Prep Expert, but I wish that I took an instructed class instead. For as good as the self guided class is, having an instructor, a real person on the other end of the screen that can respond to questions, is indispensable. Although I have only done practice tests, I’ve seen real improvement.

I had a class with Daniel Lee with Lahari as the T.A. It was a good class, and Daniel made studying for the SAT more enjoyable with his pop culture references and jokes. In addition to the Prep Expert strategies, Daniel had his own "Daniel Lee Strats", which were very helpful as well. I will say, the class did drag on a bit at times, but it's hard to fault him for that, since the class is three hours long.

I learned a lot of concepts that I never knew about. Daniel was a great instructor, and Lahari was a great TA!

Daniel Lee was my instructor and Marina Luo was my TA. Daniel did a great job making sure the class understood the strategies being presented. With Daniel, I was able to apply the strategies while taking practice tests and improve my scores. Daniel was also good at keeping the class engaged and was very relatable. Our TA Marina was also very reliable if we had any questions

My instructors were Daniel Lee and Dorothy D-D. Many of the tips that I learned within the class were extremely helpful, but, at times, Daniel spent a bit too much time on easier subjects but glossed over some aspects that the class wanted more of a dive into. However, that was a rare occurrence and overall the class did boost my score and allowed me to see the test in a more analytical way.

The course was very helpful in getting acquainted with the SAT and in improving scores. You do have to put in the work-reading, homework, practice tests, and classes-but it does help a lot in the end. The only aspect that I would criticize would be not having walkthrough answers unless you specifically purchase them. Even then you don't specifically get walkthrough answers for the homework you complete. One of the most significant aspects is going through what you got wrong and correcting it. Not being able to do that yourself, or not being able to go over it in class because of other peoples questions holds you back from where you could be with a tutor that specializes in the areas you need help with. Other than that I think its a great class to help bolster your SAT score. Wanted to give a quick shoutout to my instructor Tim Prunyi. He was extremely helpful and willing to go over any questions that you suggested in the chat. Highly recommend his class if you do end up signing on with Prep Expert.

My instructor, Tim Prunyi, was very engaging and helpful. My only complaint is that during class, we spent around 30-40 minutes of our 3-hour session in break periods. This helped me refocus, however sometimes I felt this was a little excessive. Overall, the class was extremely helpful with the strategies, practice tests, and the live feedback available!

I had Harsh Patel as my instructor and he was really good. This class is only rlly helpful for beginners (like if you recently started studying for the SAT). They do have some good tips but I think this class is most helpful for homework and test reviews. Harsh was really knowledgeable and gave us many useful tips outside of what the course taught. I am so glad he was my instructor. A lot of the strategies are stuff that is pretty known if you've been studying for the SAT for awhile. I think course experience is based on the instructor, I would have liked more interaction with the instructor as that makes the class a lot more enjoyable. Overall this was a decent course but I would not recommend it for anyone who has been studying for awhile- it won't be that helpful.

My instructor during the 6 week course was Harsh Patel. He is a very good teacher who made the class interesting and fun. He would introduce a lot of participation which made the course more understanding. He has helped me a lot with understanding how to take an sat!

I think that this course is very helpful for those who are starting off practicing for the SAT. There are many practice exams and books that are given to start you off.

I think the course was helpful. Having access to the books was helpful. I liked my teacher a lot. The only complaints are that zoom classes are sort of boring especially after having a full year of them. Also, I have had some problems such as my homework not being graded and the feedback on the essays don't feel genuine because I have gotten the same feedback word for word on multiple essays.

This was overall a good course. You get many resources available to use such as books and question explanations. My instructor was available if we had any questions outside of class time and went over the majority of the questions people needed help on. They also have office hours available to ask questions one-on-one, but I didn't get a chance to use that. If you need help with general SAT test taking, this would be a good course for you, but if you need help on a specific topic such as math and the concepts specifically, I think a tutor that specializes with that subject would be better. If you plan on taking this course, be prepared to have time to complete many practice tests, because I think that is really what helps improve your score the most.

- THIS IS DETAILED REVIEW (INCLUDES TIPS) - First things first: Yes, it does help. IF you can commit. I got 130+ improvement on my final SAT and a got a relatively high score. HOWEVER, the class was only a part of it. I spent a lot of time studying. A LOT. And while I did see major improvements as I was taking this class, I think one of the biggest things about studying for the SAT and any standardized test in general is to dedicate a lot of time and effort while also studying smart. I think one of the things that may have prevent some of my peers from really maximizing the potential of the class is that they probably did not self study as much as others. The class provides you with a lot of great resources; the textbook is one of the MOST helpful ones out there. But it's up to you how you use them. The class and the instructors make this very clear, because it's very true. To be completely blunt, you could probably find a bunch of resources and textbooks elsewhere and compile them to find some of the similar strategies that the textbooks mention, but there are strategies in the Prep Expert textbooks that are kind of obscure -- mainly because it takes a degree of risk-taking for students to use them on the real test. BUT, if you try to use the strategies as you're doing practice tests, you can fine tune them to see which ones work for you and which ones don't. That, again, takes time and practice. As for the class itself, I had Miguel Chavira as my instructor, and it was okay. At some times, it was even fun. We had a really cool class dynamic, complete with the class clowns, the know-it-alls, the girls, etc. But, I will say that our shenanigans did sometimes get in the way of the course itself. A part of it, I will say, was my instructor's lack of ability to control the class. He would respond to our comments and then spiral out of control. In the end, we had a few classes where we would have to miss out on content or push it back. HERE'S AN IMPORTANT NOTE: The majority of the class content was just reviewing homework or going over the textbook content. To be honest, the reviewing homework part was the most helpful part BUT you can totally do that on your own by reading the answer explanations and figure it out yourself. But if you're the type that need concepts to be explained, then that section would be very helpful. Homework: Make sure to review after doing homework, or else it's pretty much useless. Also, take the essay tests more seriously. I made a mistake on my part by not doing that and I didn't do great on the essay. And finally: I would give a 3/5, but my score did improve a good amount, and I will attribute a part of that to the course. Hope people found this helpful

Harsh Patel is a great guy who works hard to get kids to do well on these college entrance exam. He has a young mind which adds a lot and I hope PrepExpert uses more young tutors in the future.
