Zev has taught hundreds of students SAT/ACT prep. He has developed his extensive arsenal of knowledge and strategies both from selecting the most effective ones from other test prep companies (that Zev trained with) and through developing a unique set of additional strategies.

ZevTheTutor students have a history of producing large score improvements as well as achieving top 1% scores on the tests. Many SAR and Leffell students have received perfect scores on one or more individual sections. Some have even received perfect scores overall.

*Typical ACT score improvement: 7.4 points. (Results may vary student-to-student.)

Here are a few of the top achievements by students: one SAR student improved her ACT score 13 points and one Leffell student improved her score 12 points on the ACT. Those improvements are comparable from moving from below average at any of the top ~800 US Colleges and strengthening scores to Harvard-level

ZevTheTutor can also help students determine whether SAT or ACT is the better fit through diagnostic testing, free of charge.

• Zev is an alumnus of Leffell (Schechter) and loved his time there.

• In 6th grade, Zev led Leffell (Schechter) to 1st in Westchester and 2nd place in NYS math competition with ~500 schools. If you’re up for a mini-scavenger hunt - somewhere in the Leffell Lower School you should still be able to find Schechter’s plaque (individually, Zev ranked 1st in Westchester and 4th in NYS - testament to the excellent education he received at Leffell).
