"Put us to the test and see why parents say we're the best."
"My Daughter was struggling with math and my son needed SAT Prep. The progress they made was very evident in the first few months. My daughter’s Math grades went from 70’s to high 90’s. She is now very confident with her math skills. My son’s vocabulary and writing ability soared. I really appreciated the personalized treatment they received. He has taken the SAT and did an extraordinary job. My daughter continues to excel in her Math and will be starting her SAT Prep."
Sincerely,
Ms. White
“Nicholas and family would like to thank Mr. Vieira and faculty on the tutoring of prepping Nick for the Sat exam. He was so well prepared that he increased his score by 260. Again we want to Thank You for the success.”
The Arcabascio Family
“I would recommend Scholarskills because each student is provided with an individualized, diagnostic approach to learning which provides for instruction that supports intervention as well as acceleration. Scholarskills faculty have high expectations for all students. Students' needs are continuously addressed while their strengths are continuously challenged. They build progress and success one student at a time.”
Barbara Sanders, Retired Principal
"They provide quality education designed for your child as an individual. Children are given the attention and discipline needed to foster learning. My child loves to go to school and has learned more in his first 2 months than he learned in 6 months of public school."
Ms. Indira Batson
"My son was admitted to the top private school in New York City. Thanks ScholarSkills."
Ms. Clyne
"My daughter got accepted to all of her top choices. I want to thank the entire ScholarSkills team.

"Tutoring is a waste of money--unless you get the best qualified team of tutors who will give your child exactly what he or she needs and more --with no risk or obligation on your part. Don't risk your money or waste your time and your child's mind."
