Thank you so much for your support. My daughter loves working with you. She looks forward to her SAT Prep sessions every week. You've taken her scores from 1240 to 1520, placing her in the 99th percentile. We can't thank you enough.

"This is one of the top five college admissions essays I have ever seen. You should be admitted to any school in the nation based on this personal statement alone. A truly evocative, moving, and gorgeously written narrative. It is a perfect essay.”

— Ivy League Head of Admissions

I just got my scores back on the ACT. It's a 34 Composite, which [puts me in] the 99th Percentile. Perfect 36 on the English and Reading Sections, and scored in the 97th and 98th Percentiles for Math and Science, respectively. Thank you so much for all of your help!

I literally cried after opening my son's test scores. Then I called my husband who cried in a Board of Directors meeting. Thank you so much for guiding our son through this phase of his life. You really were the ideal person to do it and he was so lucky to have you, as were we.  You did such an amazing thing here. Not just for this test, but for our son as a person.

I am so grateful to have met you, Dan. you and your team. You understand what hard work is and what it takes to get these kids to grow into polished young adults. It's not lost on me ever how hard you all work and the incredible job you all do. Hats off to you!! Thank you for filling a huge hole in our educational system that needed a guide.

You are changing our son's life. His grades have gone from C's and D's to straight A's. He has never been this motivated. His vocabulary is maturing. His math skills are at an honors level. He's even using the calendar you recommended and starting to stay organized and focused on his own initiative. Thank you for all the help!

Wow — such comprehensive notes and what a great report. Thank you! Our son has enormous strengths and I'm so glad you see them. Academics come harder for him, but he really wants to succeed. This is an awesome beginning. I'm thrilled things are coming along so productively and positively.

Mr. Bennett has been an amazing teacher. I don't know what I would have done without him. I'm so thankful we connected. I find our sessions incredibly helpful and studying for the CFA with him means so much to me and my career. This is literally changing my life. Thank you so much for everything!

GEO Team - I love you. I’ve been bawling my eyes out since yesterday. Our boy got in via Early Decision!!!! I'm still crying. Best business school in the country. You and your team are so amazing. Every single thing you've done over the years has been incredible. AMAZING, just AMAZING!!!!!

Mr. Bennett was incredibly organized and focused, and his teaching approach was amazing. He encouraged my daughter to embrace her strengths and trust her instincts. He inspired her to work harder, read more, and explore beyond her current knowledge and comfort zone. It's amazing how much was done in this time.

Thank you so, so much for the cookies — they are absolutely DELICIOUS! More importantly, thank you for all of the support and guidance throughout this entire process. From SAT prep to supplements to my personal statement, I am incredibly grateful for all the help you provided. I truly couldn’t have done it without the entire GEO team. I’m so happy with how everything turned out and am truly appreciative of everyone who played a role in helping me get there. Thank you again for everything!!!

Each of the four tutors that I worked with were not only a blast to get to know, but was extremely effective in teaching me how to ace the GRE. I am very satisfied with my score and could not have achieved these results without GEO and the lovely tutors I worked with. If you are considering using GEO, I 100/10 recommend it! 

Dan is the best tutor I have ever met. He tutors all three of my children in subjects ranging from chemistry and calculus to finance and economics. It's so wonderful to hear them laugh while they’re learning.

You never told me we would need Kleenex for your post-session emails! It is amazing to hear all this. Between his motivation and your encouragement, I'm optimistic. You're right — he is more capable than he realizes.

We’re extremely happy with her scores and wanted to thank you for your patience and keeping her so engaged during the tutoring sessions. I was talking to our daughter and she feels that everything she learned from you will help with current and future math classes as well as future standardized tests.

I am so thrilled for my daughter and amazed at how this all happened. Thanks to your guidance, she has gone from an executive assistant with a degree in Design to a portfolio manager at a Wall Street hedge fund. I am so sure that a big part of her success is a result of your tireless commitment to your students, your good humor, support, and sociability.

I don't know exactly how to express it, but we were so fortunate to have Dan as a tutor for my daughter. They really”'clicked,” but I can't believe that anyone would not. Dan is one of the most intelligent and gracious people I've met. He has a very broad and deep knowledge of math and literature, not to mention a pedagogical gift.

Hello Wonderful GEO Team! We cannot properly express our gratitude for your incredible efforts and support over the last two years. I cannot imagine how different this journey would have been without you. The results have been extraordinary. We all knew how special she is, and it feels amazing to know that so many schools recognize her gifts and talents, too. Thank you all so much!!!!

Our daughter just called me from the bathroom.  She went to class today expecting to tell the teacher that she could not stand up in front of the room to read her poem. She told me she just stood up and gave him the poem and read it out loud to the class without any notes or prompts. Her teacher’s response was “WOW”.  She also said she was the only one in the class who recited from memory. I think she is very proud of herself, as she should be.

The only reason she was able to do this was because she prepared with you ahead of time.  I don’t think she could have done this without your support.

I wanted to let you both know I just accepted an investment banking offer from Broadhaven in New York!! It was down to them and a superday at Barclays but I am really happy about the people at Broadhaven and am excited for the internship! Thank you so so much for all your help these past 12 months. I really couldn’t have done it without both of your guys' help.

And the amazing news continues!!! 5 out of 5 so far. Thank you so much - our GEO team is amazing! And straight A’s first semester!! In just two years, she has gone from C’s to A’s. We’re so proud.

Thank you for all the hard work you invested in our son. It was a long year, but you took his scores from 1300 to 1480. Most importantly, you inspired him in ways far beyond the test. Thank you for making every step worthwhile.

I just got a great call from his science teacher. She was checking in to say how super happy she is with his work — "informative and very entertaining!" Also, his eighth grade math teacher said he's doing proper honors-level high school algebra. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As a student who previously struggled on college entrance standardized tests, I had a sour taste in my mouth about having to take the GRE ahead of applying to graduate school. Between the underdevelopment of certain skills and a load of standardized test taking anxiety, I was worried that I would not be able to reach a competitive score. However, my experience with GEO turned a daunting task into a truly positive experience.

He’s learned so much. Best tutors ever. He’s grown immeasurably. We’ve already won, regardless of the outcome.

Thank you so much for your comments. Once again, they are extremely helpful. I hope to continue learning about the political and philosophical aspects of Economics. Your guidance has furthered my passion for such topics and I look forward to reading the books you recommended. Thanks again for all your help, I really appreciate it.

Many do not understand how important it is to be present, aware, and supportive during these formative years the way Grey Eyed Owl is with our family. It changes everything. We are so grateful for the work you do and the lives you will change.

The secret recipe at GEO was the tailoring of the syllabi I worked through to the areas within my skill set that needed the most attention. We worked from the bottom up in fine tuning areas that I needed to improve in. Truly, every session was a joy and I feel the tangible improvement in my critical thinking skills, vocabulary, and mathematical foundations.

She’s doing quite well with these particular tutors… They speak her language. It’s making her feel connected to them, not teaching from a level of looking down at her.

I heard one tutor ask why she didn’t feel so confident in herself about geometry. He explained how that sets off a chain reaction where you have low confidence for the rest of your math sequences. He asked her to totally wipe that away. They would start at the foundations and build on that so she feels super confident in herself.

Her GEO team has been very encouraging and she feels really good about the worksheets she's doing. We’re seeing her put in all the work afterwards and completing the homework, which is incredible!! She must feel inspired by them.

I feel confident we can get his scores where they'll need to be -- we have the best team there is, and our son seems to have embraced the challenge and commitment.
