" I was a student of Kate for three months. I was studying for the SAT and was aiming high scores in order to get into Ivy League schools such as Harvard or Cornell. Kate played a tremendous role during the whole application process. Through her help I got an excellent SAT score and got accepted to Harvard College. In the first study session Kate got an overall picture of the level I was on at that point and based on that she created my study plan. During the course I had access to a lot of materials. With each session I noticed that I got a better understanding of the SAT structure and its questions. The classes were really structured and organized and Kate was really patient while answering my questions. She helped me to learn useful tricks and what key words, I have to search for while reading and answering the questions. I can only recommend Kate as a teacher to other students who need help with the exams or application process. She is a really reliable, organized, patient and friendly professor. I was able to improve so much within these three months and I honestly had fun during the classes. At the end I had success and got into my dream university. "

" Thank you! I'm happy and suprised I didn't think that I would get 200 points more in just a few weeks. About the course: before starting, I really struggled to organize my preparation and wasn’t sure how to move forward. I had tried on my own, but it often felt difficult and unproductive. Working with you made such a big difference. I became more confident, and clear about what I was doing. The progress I saw gave me motivation and helped reduce a lot of stress and I got much better scores. Looking back, I definitely feel the course was worth it, it was a valuable investment in myself, and I wouldn’t have achieved the same results without it. I especially appreciated the way the classes were done: everything was clear, supportive, and encouraging, and I always felt comfortable learning with you. Overall, I’m really happy with the experience and would gladly recommend the course to friends who are also working toward their goals. Thank you so much for your support — it was a real pleasure to learn with you!😁"

" My son took the course with Ekaterina. She is very knowledgeable and helped my son with both the ACT and SAT tests. Her course offers a range of strategies that help with all aspects of the tests. And during the classes she works with you to help you to understand any areas that you are finding difficult. Ekaterina is patient and guides you through many example questions until you understand the concept and she has a vast range of resources to call upon. She helped my son to raise his score significantly. Ekaterina is also familiar with the US university applications process and can advise on how to answer university-specific questions and university papers. I would recommend Ekaterina and her course —she is a joy to work with and is really easy to get on with."

"I have been working with Kate for three months now preparing for my SAT. The course has been well structured and informative. Kate is an excellent tutor who has helped me tremendously, whether that is during our Zoom sessions or in setting me work to do between sessions when most tasks and explanations were available online. I am a tennis player looking to play college tennis when I finish my school studies next year and in the past month I have been away at tournaments in Europe and the Middle East and Kate has been extremely flexible, fitting our sessions in at short notice around my matches. Kate was recommended to me by another tennis player who she has helped get in to Princeton and I would have no hesitation in recommending her to others. Thank you Kate for all your help!"
