Warm, encouraging and patient. Made a difficult subject feel manageable.

Samuel R. Verified student · Jun 2026 · [Demo] Calculus Crash Course (completed)

Strategy tips alone were worth the price of the class. Concrete, practical and well explained.

Taylor keeps the goal in sight every session — we always knew what we were working towards and how far along we were. By the end I felt completely ready for test day.

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · May 2026

Thank you, Owen! "Always know the goal" is exactly the idea. Best of luck on test day.

Brilliant at making abstract ideas concrete. I now actually look forward to calculus.

My third class with Taylor and the best one yet — the calculus ideas finally clicked with the algebra I learned back in January.

The bootcamp moves fast and I needed longer on the word problems — but Taylor's worked examples made the hard questions manageable.

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · Mar 2026

Thanks Jack — fair point on the word problems. I'm adding a slower pass through them to the next bootcamp. See you in Calculus!

Super helpful — thanks for the tips on pacing!

Emma W. Verified student · Apr 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

I used to freeze on word problems. Taylor taught me a method to break them down and now I actually enjoy them. The practice sets were the right level — hard enough to stretch me, never discouraging.

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · Apr 2026

That means a lot, Emma — word problems are mostly about method, and you picked it up quickly. Enjoy them!

Lucas M. Verified student · Apr 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

Helpful and encouraging. The worked examples were excellent.

Noah B. Verified student · Mar 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

My SAT math score went up 90 points in six weeks. Worth every minute.

Ava P. Verified student · Mar 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

Great at spotting exactly where I was getting stuck and fixing it quickly.

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · Mar 2026

Thanks Ava! Finding the exact sticking point is my favourite part. Good luck with the rest of the term.

Liam O. Verified student · Mar 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

Patient and incredibly well prepared. Every session had a clear plan and a recap at the end.

Olivia N. Verified student · Mar 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

Clear, structured, and kind. Highly recommend!

MR
Mia R. Verified student · Mar 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

Very approachable — I never felt silly asking the same question twice.

MT
Maya T. Verified student · Mar 2026 · [Demo] SAT Math Bootcamp (completed)

Finally understood derivatives — Taylor explained the why, not just the steps, and it clicked.

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · Mar 2026

Thank you, Maya! Derivatives really do click once the "why" lands — keep practising the chain rule and you'll be flying.

Aria H. Verified student · Feb 2026 · [Demo] Algebra Foundations (completed)

Adapted the lesson on the fly when I told him I was struggling with trig. Really appreciated that.

Ivy S. Verified student · Feb 2026 · [Demo] Algebra Foundations (completed)

My daughter went from dreading maths to asking for extra problems. Thank you!

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · Feb 2026

What a lovely note, Ivy — please pass my thanks to your daughter. Her curiosity made it easy.

The pacing was perfect and the homework was genuinely useful. Exactly what I needed before my exam.

Nora A. Verified student · Feb 2026 · [Demo] Algebra Foundations (completed)

Clear explanations, though a few topics went by quickly. Overall very good and I learned a lot.

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · Feb 2026

Thanks Nora. I hear you on pacing — I've added a short recap of the quick topics at the end of each session now.

Chloe D. Verified student · Feb 2026 · [Demo] Algebra Foundations (completed)

Short and sweet: excellent.

EB
Ethan B. Verified student · Feb 2026 · [Demo] Algebra Foundations (completed)

Good content and a solid tutor, but I wish the class had been a little longer so we could cover more practice questions.

Taylor S. Reply from Taylor S. · Feb 2026

Thank you for the honest feedback, Ethan. You are right — I've since extended the practice block so there's more time for questions. Hope to see you again!

LF
Leo F. Verified student · Feb 2026 · [Demo] Algebra Foundations (completed)

Organised, punctual and always on top of what we covered last time.
