About Peace of Pi Learning

Here’s a secret: not everyone wants to become an engineer or mathematician. Not everyone has the same goals. There’s a lot of us who just need that 50-point SAT jump to secure a scholarship like Florida Bright Futures, or to pass that math or science class that’s been hijacking your semester.

Our mission is to turn math roadblocks into stepping stones on the path to success (as cheesy as that sounds). That’s why we tailor our method to every student, whatever their background, learning style, financial situation, schedule load, or scholastic goals.

With several pricing options ranging from private tutoring ($$$) to small and large group packages ($), to customizable class sizes, to choosing live tutoring or pre-recorded content, we have the format that works for you.

Private Tutoring

This is the most flexible and personalized plan. An initial assessment of the student’s strengths and weaknesses is made using a practice exam, past SAT/PSAT scores, and their performance in their current math class. From there, we provide them with personalized study material, example problems, and practice problems that address their weaknesses while also solidifying their strengths. I also reassess them regularly using mini quizzes that I’ve personally created, and real SAT practice exams.

“The tutors kept everything structured, and the other students made the sessions feel supportive and encouraging.”

I took the Peace of Pi prep course from August to October to prepare for the SAT, and it made a huge difference for me.

Before joining this program, my SAT score was 1190, which wasn’t high enough for the colleges I wanted to apply to. I knew I needed to improve my score to feel confident about my college applications, so I started looking for solutions. A friend recommended Peace of Pi, telling me how much their score had improved, so I decided to give it a try.

The course was a lot of work, but it was absolutely worth it. The virtual learning experience met my expectations and made it easy to stay focused. I liked how the group learning environment balanced being fun while still keeping us engaged and learning. The tutors kept everything structured, and the other students made the sessions feel supportive and encouraging.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I increased my score to a 1360, including a 710 in math. This improvement gave me the confidence I needed to submit my scores to Florida schools and other colleges I’m excited about.

I’m so grateful for the program and everything it’s helped me accomplish. It’s made the college application process feel less stressful, and I’m proud of the progress I made through all the hard work. Thank you, Peace of Pi!

“If you want to boost your score and get closer to your dream school, Peace of Pi is the way to go!”

I enlisted the help of Peace of Pi because I needed a strong SAT score to work toward my goal of attending an Ivy League school. Before starting the program, I hadn’t done any prep and had no knowledge of Algebra 2, which made the SAT math section feel impossible. I started working with Peace of Pi after being introduced to Renan through a mutual friend, and it’s one of the best decisions I’ve made.

The program made a huge difference for me. The lesson plans, videos, and Zoom sessions broke down Algebra 2 concepts in a way that I could understand, even though I was still studying geometry in school. What I appreciated most was the group learning environment. It wasn’t as strict or intimidating as I expected. The tutors knew how to keep things light with jokes, which helped ease my nerves when tackling challenging problems.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I improved my SAT score from 1100 on the first practice test to 1310. That jump of 210 points brought me closer to achieving my dream of attending a top-tier university. What I’ve learned from this experience is that consistency is key—putting in the work makes all the difference. During one of my attempts, I got a little lazy with the assignments, and it really showed. My advice to other students is simple: stay committed, do the work, and you’ll see the results you want.

I highly recommend the summer program to anyone, especially if you have free time or can manage it alongside other commitments. For me, juggling baseball tournaments and SAT prep wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. If you want to boost your score and get closer to your dream school, Peace of Pi is the way to go.

“My advice to other students is simple: just do whatever Peace of Pi tells you to do. It worked for me, and I’m so glad I stuck with it!”

Before I joined Peace of Pi, I was struggling with my SAT math score. I’ve always been a good student in math—I’ve taken advanced classes and passed them easily, but my SAT scores didn’t match up. My first official SAT math score was a 500, and I knew that wasn’t going to cut it if I wanted to qualify for Bright Futures.

I tried studying on my own at first, but I wasn’t really pushing myself to work hard. I needed something to keep me on track, and that’s when I decided to join Peace of Pi. I thought their course would not only help me relearn concepts like geometry and algebra, but also give me a reason to stay disciplined.

At first, I wasn’t sure what to expect from the virtual group learning experience. I figured it would be just like the Zoom classes we had during COVID, but it turned out to be much more engaging. With only four students in the group, the tutors made sure we were all participating and staying on top of things. Since I signed up to be there, I felt more motivated to actually do the work.

The program was definitely time-consuming, and it required a lot of effort. But if you’re willing to put in the work, the results are worth it. For me, that hard work paid off. I improved my math score by 190 points, going from a 500 to a 690, and my overall SAT score went up to 1290. With that improvement, I qualified for Bright Futures, which means I’ll be saving a lot of money for college.

My advice to other students is simple: just do whatever Peace of Pi tells you to do. It worked for me, and I’m so glad I stuck with it. This program really is the best, and I’m grateful for everything it helped me achieve.

“The group dynamic made the experience so much more effective than one-on-one tutoring!”

Prior to joining Peace of Pi, I was stuck. My math score on the SAT wasn’t where I needed it to be, and I knew it wouldn’t get me into the universities I was aiming for. 

I’d tried working with a tutor before—a really smart guy from Princeton—but I realized that being knowledgeable and being able to teach effectively are two very different things. I was missing the foundations I needed to succeed, and it felt like I was just spinning my wheels.

When I started the course, I wasn’t sure how the virtual group setting would work. I thought it might feel like remote school during COVID, but it was nothing like that. The sessions were engaging and collaborative. Not only did I learn from the tutor, but I also got to hear other students’ perspectives, which helped me understand concepts better. The group dynamic made the experience so much more effective than one-on-one tutoring.

The program isn’t easy. It’s intense and requires real effort…but that’s what makes it work. Peace of Pi pushes you to give it your all, and if you’re willing to work hard, the results will come. My math score improved by 140 points, jumping from a 610 to a 750, and my overall score reached a 1440. That’s something I never thought I’d achieve before joining this program! It’s taken a huge weight off my shoulders and given me the confidence I needed for my college applications.

To any student considering Peace of Pi: don’t shy away from the challenge. The four-hour sessions might sound daunting, but they fly by because you’re constantly engaged. It’s not boring—it’s productive, and the progress you make is worth every minute. Trust the process, stay focused, and remember that hard work pays off. I couldn’t have done it without Peace of Pi.

“The program is structured in a way that pushes you but also ensures you have the resources you need to succeed.”

Before joining Peace of Pi, I knew my SAT score was going to be a major factor in getting into the schools I wanted, particularly in Florida and Boston. When I took the PSAT, my score was nowhere near what I needed, and I knew I had to start preparing early to maximize my potential. I first heard about Peace of Pi through a family friend who had an incredible score improvement, so I knew it had to be a great program. I decided to join the summer program, and it exceeded my expectations.

Math has always been a subject I enjoyed—I was a straight-A student, and it was one of my favorite classes. So when I saw that my PSAT math score was much lower than I expected, it didn’t feel like it reflected my true ability. I didn’t want one test to define me as a math student, so I joined Peace of Pi to make sure I could reach the score I knew I was capable of.

One of my biggest struggles before tutoring was time management. I also realized that a lot of the SAT covered material I had learned years ago, like geometry in eighth grade, and algebra concepts that I had forgotten because I was now in pre-calculus. When I took the PSAT, I found myself running out of time and unable to finish the test. Peace of Pi helped me build strategies to manage my time effectively while also reinforcing the concepts I had forgotten.

Coming into the virtual group learning, I didn’t really know what to expect. I had heard positive feedback from others, but I was still unsure how it would work—especially how the tutors would keep everyone engaged. From the first session, I realized how interactive it was. The tutors made sure no one was just sitting there distracted or zoning out. They would check to see if you were participating, ask you to submit answers, and even call on you if needed. This level of engagement really helped keep me accountable and focused.

At first, the idea of a four-hour session sounded overwhelming. I had friends in other programs who only did two-hour sessions, and I thought sitting in a chair for that long doing math would be impossible. But once I started, I actually found myself enjoying it. The sessions didn’t feel dragged out—they were structured in a way that made the time fly by. Plus, the tutors gave us breaks, and they were really mindful of keeping us engaged without feeling burnt out. By the end of the sessions, I felt confident that I could apply what I learned on the actual test.

The level of support in this program is amazing. If I was struggling with a topic, even after the session ended, I could reach out to my tutor for extra help, and they would provide additional worksheets or practice problems. The program is structured in a way that pushes you but also ensures you have the resources you need to succeed. The weekly homework assignments were definitely a challenge, but they were essential in helping me improve.

Overall, I would highly recommend Peace of Pi to anyone looking to improve their SAT score. The tutors truly care about your success, and they tailor the learning experience to make sure you get the most out of it. The program helped me strengthen my math skills, improve my time management, and feel confident in my ability to reach my goals. If you’re willing to put in the work, Peace of Pi will absolutely help you get there.

“I felt that with the right materials and guidance, I could make significant improvements… and Peace of Pi provided exactly what I needed!”

I decided to join Peace of Pi because my SAT score wasn’t where I needed it to be. It wasn’t high enough to qualify for Bright Futures or get into the colleges I was aiming for. I hadn’t really practiced much before, so I felt that with the right materials and guidance, I could make significant improvements… and Peace of Pi provided exactly what I needed!

Before the course, my biggest frustration was running out of time on the tests. I didn’t know how to approach or solve many of the questions, so I’d get stuck and fall behind. At first, I thought the program would be overwhelming—four hours a week sounded like a lot. But once I got into the rhythm of completing the homework and attending the classes, it became manageable.  

What I liked most about Peace of Pi was the group learning environment. I thought it would be tough, but it turned out to be really comfortable. It felt better than one-on-one tutoring because I wasn’t alone in the process, and the group dynamic kept me motivated.  

The program does require a lot of effort, but it’s absolutely worth it. My math score improved by 160 points, and I now have a total score of 1350. With this score, I’ve already qualified for 100% Bright Futures, and I’m able to apply to most of the colleges I was aiming for, including some prestigious ones.  

For anyone considering Peace of Pi, my advice is to pace yourself and stay consistent with your studying. Don’t let the workload overwhelm you—if you put in the effort, you’ll see the results. For me, it’s been a game-changer, and I’m excited to see how much further I can go!

“Peace of Pi made my dreams possible, and I’m so grateful for the confidence this experience has given me!”

I’ve always been strong in math, but when it came to the SAT, I just wasn’t getting the score I needed. It was frustrating because I knew I could do better, but the results didn’t show that. 

I was honestly nervous about doing tutoring on Zoom with Peace of Pi. Similarly to many others, online learning didn’t work for me in the past. I would soon come to realize that Peace of Pi was so different. The tutors focused on each of us individually, making sure we understood our mistakes, and that approach helped me learn so much.

The course was definitely a lot of work! I dedicated 1 to 2 hours daily, and honestly, it was worth it. They kept me on top of every assignment, pushing me to keep going. My tutor was so kind and taught in a way that made things click.

I improved my score by 170 points, ending up with a 730 in math! This score allowed me to earn 100% Bright Futures, which is such a relief as I start my senior year. For anyone else on this journey, my advice is simple: do all the homework and practice tests. It’s the practice that made the biggest difference for me. Peace of Pi made my dreams possible, and I’m so grateful for the confidence this experience has given me.

“I would describe Peace of Pi’s service as truly supportive. If you’re coming in feeling lost or anxious about the SAT, know that you will be taken care of.”

Although I don’t currently attend school, I decided to pursue my academic goals by taking the SAT. I realized I needed support when I found myself struggling to keep up with the material. I felt overwhelmed, especially with the upcoming tests, and I couldn’t find any strategic resources online that would help me from start to finish.

Before joining Peace of Pi, I was always a straight-A math student, so it was confusing for me to score lower than I expected on the SAT. I didn’t understand that the SAT had a specific way of presenting questions, and I was unsure how to approach them. That’s when I turned to Peace of Pi.

Coming into the virtual group learning experience, I expected it to be like a typical online class, but I was pleasantly surprised. The way the tutors separated students into skill-based groups was incredibly helpful. It made me feel like I belonged with others who were also striving for improvement. The pace was just right, and I really appreciated having the same teacher most of the time. It helped me form a bond with my instructor, making the environment comfortable and enjoyable.

I would describe Peace of Pi’s service as truly supportive. If you’re coming in feeling lost or anxious about the SAT, know that you will be taken care of. The tutors will keep you on track and make sure you understand the material. They’re like an airbag, ready to catch you if you fall behind. I always felt encouraged and motivated to complete my assignments, thanks to their support.

As for the results, I started with a score of 530, which felt disheartening. After just a month and a half with Peace of Pi, I improved to a 670, which is a 140-point increase! That growth not only boosted my math score but also improved my reading score without any additional studying on my part. The practice tests we completed contributed greatly to this success.

This improvement has opened up opportunities for me to apply for scholarships, such as My Bright Futures, which is vital since I’m not originally from the States and navigating the college system is a bit daunting. Now, I can apply for scholarships without needing to go test-optional, and I’m genuinely proud of the results I achieved through hard work and dedication.

For other students on their SAT prep journey, my biggest piece of advice is to keep practicing. Don’t settle for a few hours of study; always push yourself to do a little more. And on the day before the test, remember to relax. If you’ve put in the effort and stayed committed, trust that you’re ready. Don’t stress about the test; instead, enjoy that final day knowing you’ve done the work.

“It’s natural to hit a plateau, but if you keep pushing, you’ll see that improvement again!”

I wanted to share my experience with Peace of Pi because it really helped me in my SAT prep. Last year, after taking the PSAT, I realized that I had forgotten a lot of the math and reading concepts I once knew. I wanted to improve my score to open up scholarship options like Bright Futures and have a more diverse range of colleges to consider. I figured that by using Peace of Pi, I could learn how to do things faster and remember the material I had forgotten.

Honestly, I wasn’t sure what to expect from the virtual group learning experience, but it turned out to be great! The tutors were really direct. They stayed on top of me about answering questions, and if I got something wrong, they’d help me through my mistakes and lead me to the right answer. That approach really worked for me.

My main tutor was Mel at the start, and then I had Mars for math towards the end. They both helped me out with the problems and made sure I got through as much material as possible. They were both great additions to my SAT Prep. 

I’d say to any student considering Peace of Pi to make sure you’re ready to commit. There’s a lot of work involved, especially as you get closer to the end.

In the end, my SAT score jumped from 1100 to 1480, with my math score going from 580 to 770! This result means I now have more options for colleges and scholarships, both in-state and out-of-state.

If I could give advice to other students on this journey, it would be to keep going even when things feel stagnant. It’s natural to hit a plateau, but if you keep pushing, you’ll see that improvement again.

“I decided to join after seeing their improvements and after a detailed conversation with Renan, who gave me personal attention and answered all my questions.”

I took the Peace of Pi SAT prep course in the Summer of 2024. I needed their help after taking the SAT twice (in March and May) without seeing any improvement in my math score. I found myself confused most of the time during the math section. Before Peace of Pi, I spent a lot of time trying to guess answers using Desmos because I didn’t have a solid foundation to understand how to solve the questions properly.

This lack of understanding was keeping my SAT math score significantly below what I was aiming for. I learned about Peace of Pi because four of my friends had taken the course. I decided to join after seeing their improvements and after a detailed conversation with Renan, who gave me personal attention and answered all my questions.

I would describe Peace of Pi as tough but effective, considering the amount of work and dedication required to see improvement. Initially, I thought being in a Zoom call for four hours would be repetitive and annoying, but the virtual learning experience exceeded my expectations. I could directly ask questions, and it almost felt like being in a classroom in person.

I also thought the group would be very large, but I was pleased to find that it consisted of only 4-5 students. This group size allowed me to ask questions comfortably and receive the help I needed.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, my SAT math score went from a 560 to a 700. This improvement has significantly reduced my stress as I return to school, knowing I no longer need to worry about retaking the SAT. I’m also more confident now, as my score is at or above the average for the colleges I want to apply to.

“Peace of Pi has truly prepared me for the SAT and has given me the confidence to apply to competitive colleges.”

I had a fantastic experience with Peace of Pi while preparing for the SAT. Initially, I wasn’t too concerned about the SAT since I hadn’t even taken the PSAT, but after talking with a friend who was about to join the program, I decided it was best to start early. I enrolled in Peace of Pi before my junior year, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I made.

Before joining, I hadn’t done any test prep and had forgotten many math concepts from my previous classes. The SAT questions felt confusing, and I was uncertain if I could even tackle them. However, the virtual group learning environment was surprisingly engaging. I was worried about participating in a Zoom class with other students, but everyone was involved, and we created a supportive community. The requirement to keep our cameras on helped ensure that nobody slacked off, and the tutors made the learning experience personalized and comfortable.

The course was intensive, with lots of practice packets, which initially felt overwhelming. However, I quickly realized that repetition was key. Each time I revisited the same questions, my understanding deepened, and my confidence grew. I improved my score significantly—my final SAT score was 1420 with a 730 in the math, up from an initial practice score of 1170. This 250-point improvement exceeded my expectations and allowed me to qualify for full Bright Futures, opening up many more opportunities for my college applications.

My advice for other students is to stay committed and not rush through the material. Although it can feel like a lot of work at times, the effort is absolutely worth it in the end. Peace of Pi has truly prepared me for the SAT and has given me the confidence to apply to competitive colleges. I’m excited about my future, and I owe a big part of that to the support and structure provided by Peace of Pi.

“I had moments where I wasn’t seeing the progress I wanted, but with consistent practice, it all added up.”

I decided to join Peace of Pi’s math tutoring over the summer after my PSAT score in sophomore year came back with a 520 in math. I knew I needed to get it up to be competitive for the colleges I want to apply to. Math has always been my strong suit, but I realized I needed an extra push—especially to get familiar with SAT-style questions and refresh some key concepts. 

Before tutoring, the wording of SAT questions really threw me off. They’re written in such a tricky way that I would get super confused, even if I knew the math behind it. When I joined, I thought I might get distracted with it being virtual, but that wasn’t the case at all. The tutors keep you fully engaged by handing out work, solving problems, and interacting with you the whole time. It keeps you focused on learning instead of getting distracted. I actually loved the group setting because you get to hear other people’s questions and problem-solving approaches, which sometimes end up being more effective for you. 

To anyone considering this program, I would say it’s absolutely worth it, but you have to put in the work. That means doing all the homework and practice tests. The practice tests especially helped me build confidence and see how much I was improving. My final score was a 730, so I ended up improving +210 points in math, which was so exciting! 

Doing the course over the summer was the best choice I could’ve made because now, as a junior, I have so much less stress knowing that I already have a solid score. My advice to other students is to just trust the process. I had moments where I wasn’t seeing the progress I wanted, but with consistent practice, it all added up. The improvement you make will depend on the effort you’re willing to put in, but it’s so worth it in the end!

“I tell all my friends that while the program is hard work, it’s worth it.”

Before joining Peace of Pi, I struggled with math and knew my SAT score wasn’t where it needed to be. After taking the March SAT and seeing my low score of 1030, with only a 450 in math, I realized that if I wanted to apply to good colleges, I had to improve quickly. 

I joined Peace of Pi, a little nervous about the virtual learning environment and group setting.  But those worries quickly disappeared once I started. The tutoring felt very personalized, with smaller groups and tutors who truly cared about my progress. What surprised me the most was how rigorous the program was. There were days when I felt exhausted from the amount of homework and studying, but it ALL paid off in the end.

After completing the course, my score jumped from 1030 to 1400, and my math score alone improved by 270 points, going from a 450 to a 720! This result has completely changed my life. It opened doors for me to apply to schools like the University of Florida and the University of Miami, and I feel confident that my SAT score will no longer hold me back. 

I tell all my friends that while the program is hard work, it’s worth it. If you’re dedicated and willing to put in the effort, Peace of Pi will help you achieve the results you’re looking for.

Daniel Lopez

“There were times when I felt stuck at just under 700, but I kept studying, reviewing the material, and eventually had that breakthrough. It feels amazing when you finally get past the block, so just keep going!”

My name is Daniel Lopez, and I’m a junior at Strawberry Crest High School in Tampa, Florida. I decided to join Peace of Pi after taking the PSAT in 10th grade and getting a 580 in math. That score wasn’t good enough for most universities, and I knew I needed to improve if I wanted to have a shot at my dream schools. I was recommended to Peace of Pi, and it seemed like the right choice to help me get my score up.

Before starting the course, I didn’t really prepare much on my own, and my freshman year had been tough, so I was struggling with retaining a lot of math concepts. I was frustrated because, at the time of taking the PSAT, I didn’t know a lot of the material yet. So, going into the SAT, I knew I needed to reinforce the basics like algebra and geometry.

At first, I was a little skeptical about the virtual group learning experience because I had a bad experience with online learning during COVID in 7th grade. But honestly, Peace of Pi completely changed my perspective. The virtual environment was super supportive, and the group setting made it easy to ask questions and stay engaged. The teachers were approachable and always ready to help if I didn’t understand something. It felt like a good balance between getting the work done and being in a comfortable learning environment.

As for my results, I ended up with a 750 in math, which was a 170-point improvement from my original score of 580. That jump was huge for me, especially on my first SAT attempt. It’s a rewarding feeling to see that kind of progress after putting in the effort. Now, I’m planning to take the SAT again in October, just to see if I can improve even more by using everything I’ve learned.

My advice for other students is to keep pushing, even if you’re not seeing immediate results. There were times when I felt stuck at just under 700, but I kept studying, reviewing the material, and eventually had that breakthrough. It feels amazing when you finally get past the block, so just keep going!

Lucia Corbea

“I liked that I could do the sessions at home without distractions. It felt more structured than what I experienced during COVID learning—there were no free periods or lost time, just focused study sessions.”

My name is Lucia Corbea, and I’m a senior at Saint Brendan High School. I first realized I needed Peace of Pi’s help when I wasn’t achieving the SAT score I wanted. I felt that by dedicating more time and joining a program that would hold me accountable, I could definitely raise my score. A higher score is important to me because it opens up scholarship opportunities and helps me get into better schools.

Before joining Peace of Pi, I wasn’t doing much test prep. I tried studying on my own, but balancing school with SAT prep was really hard. That’s why I decided to do the summer program. I’d definitely recommend taking the course over summer because the workload is more manageable compared to doing it during the school year. 

My biggest frustration with the test was when it went digital, the way they worded the math questions was confusing, and that made it harder for me to answer confidently. I heard about Peace of Pi from a friend and was excited about the idea of virtual learning. I liked that I could do the sessions at home without distractions. It felt more structured than what I experienced during COVID learning—there were no free periods or lost time, just focused study sessions.

If I had to describe Peace of Pi to another student, I’d say it’s a program that requires dedication. You really have to put in the work if you want to see results, but it’s worth it. My main tutor was Marcela, and I loved how she taught. She tried to connect with her students and make the sessions engaging, which made a big difference for me.

From my parents’ perspective, they were really happy with how the program kept me on track. My mom was especially grateful for the constant communication from the team—whether it was reminders about homework or encouragement to keep me going, Peace of Pi made sure I stayed focused. She loved that the homework kept me practicing and improving consistently.

Thanks to the program, my total SAT score ended up at a 1420! My math score went up 80 points—from 650 to 730—which was my highest score so far. This improvement has given me so much confidence, and I believe that with more studying, I can push my score even higher.

For students currently preparing for the SAT, my advice would be to spread out your study sessions. Instead of cramming everything into one day, dedicate a little time each day to avoid burnout and keep your progress steady.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I feel ready and confident for what’s next, and I couldn’t be happier with my results.

Cecilia Motta

“I’d heard from other students at my school that Peace of Pi was really good at helping with SAT prep…after Peace of Pi, I raised my score to 720—a total improvement of 80 points.”

I’m Cecilia Motta and I’m currently a senior at Mast Academy. Before joining Peace of Pi, I took the SAT twice, but my score just wasn’t improving. I wanted to find tutoring that would actually help me get the score I needed to qualify for Bright Futures and get into my dream school, the University of Florida. I needed at least a 1350 for Bright Futures, and I wasn’t reaching that.

Before Peace of Pi, I was doing light tutoring twice a week, but it wasn’t helping because my scores stayed the same. I realized I needed a program that would push me more. I had been putting in effort, but I also knew I could do more, and I’d heard from other students at my school that Peace of Pi was really good at helping with SAT prep.

At first, I wasn’t sure how I’d handle the virtual group learning because the classes are long—four hours on Zoom sounded tough. But to my surprise, the time flew by. The classes were interactive, with a lot of participation, so you’re not just sitting there listening; you’re actively engaged with the teacher and other students. It made the four hours feel manageable and even enjoyable.

I’d describe Peace of Pi’s service as a lot of work, but worth it. It’s intense, especially if you’re juggling it with school, so I’d recommend doing it when you’re not in the middle of exams. You have to really commit and put in a lot of effort with the homework and practice tests, but in the end, it makes a huge difference.

I started with a 640 in math, and after Peace of Pi, I raised my score to 720—a total improvement of 80 points! That helped me reach my 1350 overall, which means I’ve already qualified for Bright Futures. I’m so relieved to have that taken care of, and it’s made me a lot more confident as I continue preparing for college.

For anyone else on their test prep journey, I’d say the SAT is a tough test—you really have to put in the work. It’s not something you can just rely on luck for. Peace of Pi is a great option for students who want to boost their scores in math or English, but you have to be ready to commit fully to the process. If you do, you’ll see the results.

” I found the accessibility of virtual tutoring perfect since I live in the Florida Keys”

Before I joined Peace of Pi, I was feeling a bit lost when it came to preparing for the SAT math section. I’m generally good at math, but I was struggling with creating a study schedule and sticking to it on my own. I knew the colleges I wanted to apply to had high score ranges, so I needed a little extra help to keep me focused and get the results I needed.

When I started the Peace of Pi program, I was nervous about the virtual group learning environment. I wasn’t sure if it would be too similar to the big, impersonal virtual classes we had during COVID, but it ended up being much better than I expected. The small group sizes, usually about six to eight students, meant that we got personalized attention. It was great to have people from all over Florida in my group, and I found the accessibility of virtual tutoring perfect since I live in the Florida Keys.

One of the biggest challenges for me before the course was managing my time during practice tests. I would often get stuck on questions and run out of time. But with Peace of Pi, I got a better understanding of how the SAT works, especially the tricky wording of the math questions. Going through the homework and practice tests helped me get faster and more confident.

The 10-week program was intense. When they say you’ll get 2-3 hours of homework, they mean it! But the tutors were always there to help and made sure I kept up with the workload. They really broke down the material in a way that was easy to follow and retain.

By the end of the program, I saw a huge improvement. My SAT math score increased by 120 points, and I couldn’t believe it. It was such a relief to see all the hard work pay off. Now, I feel much more confident heading into the college application process, knowing I’m a stronger candidate with the scores to prove it!

“My math score jumped from 600 to 710, which puts me in the range for the universities I want and got me 100% Bright Futures.”

I realized I needed help after the March SAT because I told myself I’d study on my own, but when the test came around, I ended up not studying enough. My score wasn’t where I wanted it to be—it was a 1300, but I needed at least a 1500 for the universities I’m aiming for. I also wanted to qualify for 100% Bright Futures, which requires a 1340.

Math has always been an area where I’ve needed a little extra help. I usually get A’s and B’s, but for the SAT, it was tough because a lot of the concepts were things I learned in 8th or 9th grade and had forgotten. When I started with Peace of Pi, I realized it wasn’t that I didn’t know the material, I just needed a refresher on the older topics.

Before starting, I thought it might be like online school during the pandemic—15 to 20 kids on Zoom with one teacher, which didn’t sound that helpful. I’m pretty shy, so I don’t usually ask questions in big groups. But it wasn’t like that at all. The groups were much smaller, about three to five students with one tutor, and the tutor made sure everyone participated. I felt comfortable enough to ask more questions, especially since it was the same group every time. It was really interactive, and that made a big difference for me.

I’d say people should know it’s a lot of work and dedication, but it’s totally worth it in the end because you’ll get the score you want, and it’s going to help you in the long run. After Peace of Pi, my score improved by 140 points—I went from a 1300 to a 1440. My math score jumped from 600 to 710, which puts me in the range for the universities I want and got me 100% Bright Futures.

If you stick to your homework plan and do a little every day, not all at once, it’s definitely manageable, and the results will speak for themselves.

“If I were to tell another student about Peace of Pi, I’d say they give you everything you need to succeed with the SAT, but it’s up to you to put in the work. 

I realized I needed Peace of Pi’s help when I started taking PSATs in freshman year. My math score was way lower than my reading score, and I knew it was a problem. By mid-junior year, after seeing only small improvements and trying my school’s prep course, which didn’t really work for me. I knew I needed to do something serious.

Before joining Peace of Pi, I didn’t know what to study for, especially after the test switched to online. I was unfamiliar with the new calculator, and there were a lot of small tips I was missing that Peace of Pi helped me with. That made a big difference.

To be honest, I was skeptical about the virtual group learning at first. I’d experienced online school during COVID, and it wasn’t great. But with Peace of Pi, I was proven wrong. The group was really tight, and the tutors always checked in on us to make sure we understood every question. I was also grouped by my skill level, so I never felt lost or worried about how I was doing.

If I were to tell another student about Peace of Pi, I’d say they give you everything you need to succeed with the SAT, but it’s up to you to put in the work. You can’t just breeze through it—you might need to sacrifice some time, like skipping out on hanging with friends to get your two hours of studying in each day. But if you’re serious, the results will come.

With Peace of Pi, I went from a 520 to a 690 in math—that’s 170 points. Now, I qualify for a full Bright Futures scholarship, and my college application looks way better. I’m even considering schools I never thought I could apply to before. It’s been a huge change for me, and I’m really glad they helped me get there.

My advice: Lock in. It’s going to be hard, but if you put in the work, the results will come. Just trust the process.

“Peace of Pi gave me the resources I needed to succeed, and I’m so thankful for the results!

I lost before I found Peace of Pi, struggling to find strategies to help me improve my SAT score. After scoring a 1210 on my first test and dropping to 1200 on the next, I realized that my study methods weren’t working. I felt stressed because I knew I needed a better score to get into the colleges I wanted, especially in Florida where test scores are required, and to qualify for Bright Futures.

I had been working with another tutoring service, but I wasn’t seeing any improvements, particularly in reading. Math was my stronger subject, so I decided to focus on improving my math score and hoped that it would help boost my overall results. My biggest frustration was feeling stuck at the same score no matter how much effort I put in.

When I joined Peace of Pi, I was worried that the virtual group learning environment would be too crowded and that I wouldn’t be able to ask questions. But I was pleasantly surprised! Classes were small and personalized, and I never felt too embarrassed to ask for help. The tutors, especially Marcela, were really supportive and made sure I understood the material.

The program was a lot of work, but it was worth it. My math score improved by 100 points, going from 620 to 720, and my overall SAT score jumped to 1390. This result has significantly reduced my stress, allowing me to focus on the college application process rather than the SAT.

To anyone considering SAT prep, I would say that you have to be dedicated and put in the effort. It’s not easy, but if you stick with it, you’ll definitely see improvement. Peace of Pi gave me the resources I needed to succeed, and I’m so thankful for the results!

“It’s an investment that pays off, not just in terms of test scores, but in building essential study habits and discipline.

After the March SAT at school, I realized I was lagging behind, even though I had taken the test multiple times. I wasn’t getting the score I needed for the schools I was interested in, and I just wasn’t in their score range. That’s when I decided I needed help.

I’d done previous tutoring, but it didn’t really work for me. I took two tests after those sessions, and I didn’t see much improvement. I figured I needed a different approach, maybe a different style that would work better. I’d been tutored on Zoom before, but I felt like we didn’t get enough practice, and the sessions weren’t specific enough for what I needed.

My biggest frustration was time. I knew how to do the problems, but I would just run out of time during the test. When I started Peace of Pi, I wasn’t sure how effective it would be since it was group tutoring and still on Zoom. But it felt a lot more personal than I expected. The tutors focused on each question and made sure no one was left behind. If you needed help, they stayed with you and wouldn’t move on until you understood it.

I’d tell anyone considering Peace of Pi: don’t knock it until you try it. A lot of people think Zoom tutoring isn’t as helpful as in-person, but I found it way more practical. You can just open your computer on the weekend instead of traveling to a tutor’s house or the library. It’s very accessible, and the tutors work closely with you. They won’t leave you stuck on a problem.

The way Peace of Pi operates is super organized. Everyone has a specific role, and everything runs smoothly. It’s clear they’ve got a system down that really works.

Before I started Peace of Pi, my math score was a 660. After the June test, I got a 720, which allowed me to get a superscore of 1410. That put me in the pool for UF and other schools I never thought I’d be in the running for just three months ago. I’m really happy with that.

I’d just say two things. First, definitely try it out and don’t let past experiences with tutoring or the fact that it’s on Zoom discourage you. Second, you have to be willing to put in the work. It takes a lot of time, especially if you’re doing this during the school year, balancing homework, hard classes, or sports. But it’s absolutely worth it in the end.

“I’m so glad I joined Peace of Pi, and I’m excited about what’s next for me!

[read more]

I decided to join Peace of Pi Learning after seeing that my friends were ahead of me with their SAT scores. I had been doing ACT tutoring throughout my junior year, but my score wasn’t improving. My friends kept telling me to switch to the SAT, saying I might do better, but I kept doubting myself. It was only when I found Peace of Pi that I finally decided to give it a shot.

I really want to attend a Florida school like UF or FSU since I have Florida Prepaid, and a higher SAT score would increase my chances of getting in and qualifying for Bright Futures. I was always pretty good at math, but I found myself struggling with topics from previous years, like Algebra 1 and 2. Peace of Pi helped me relearn those concepts, which really boosted my confidence and improved my skills.

I was nervous about the virtual group learning experience at first, but my friends reassured me that it was a small group and that I’d be fine. The classes were super interactive, and the teachers made sure we all participated, which helped me stay engaged. I took the course over the summer, and I would definitely recommend that to other students. Without school and extracurriculars to worry about, I could focus just on SAT prep and balance my social life easily.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, my math score went from 520 to 680 with a 160-point increase! I’m happy with it, but I’m aiming for even higher and plan to take the SAT again soon, reaching for a 700 to get a 1400 overall. This improvement has opened up many possibilities for me, and I feel more hopeful about attending the universities I want.

My advice for other students is to take SAT prep seriously and give it your all. If you’re willing to put in the work and balance your time, you’ll see great results. I’m so glad I joined Peace of Pi, and I’m excited about what’s next for me!

“After working with Peace of Pi, I learned exactly what the SAT is looking for!

[read more]

I took the SAT prep course with Peace of Pi over the summer and honestly, it was such a game-changer for me!

Before Peace of Pi, I was really struggling with my SAT prep. I had tried another tutoring service, but they promised a 50-point increase, and after my mom spent so much money, the results just didn’t pull through. I felt like I knew I could do better, but I just wasn’t seeing it reflected in my scores. I needed something more effective to help me get into my dream colleges and qualify for Bright Futures.

When I started the course, I was a little anxious about the virtual group learning experience. My friends had told me it was going to be annoying and that there was a lot of work, especially since I was working full-time. My mom also put a lot of pressure on me because she wanted to see results after the last experience. But I quickly found that Peace of Pi was very human and loving. Renan, my tutor, really put so much care into each student, which I didn’t experience with my previous tutoring companies. I felt safe in his hands, and I really appreciated that he was writing the lesson plans himself.

The course helped me tackle my biggest issues with the SAT. I realized I would have never figured out the tricks on my own. It’s like, how am I supposed to come up with that? But after working with Peace of Pi, I learned exactly what the SAT is looking for!

I’m super proud to say I improved my math score by 110 points, going from 610 to 720! My overall score is now 1410, which is such a relief. I got Bright Futures right off the bat, and even though I plan to take the test again, I feel at peace knowing that I have a comfortable score for the schools I really want to go to.

For anyone considering Peace of Pi, know that it’s worth the struggle and stress. The work you put in really pays off. I’m so grateful for the support I received and the confidence I’ve gained throughout this process. Thank you, Peace of Pi!

“After completing the prep, my math score improved from 690 on my first try to an incredible 790 on my second try!

[read more]

Initially, I took my first SAT without any preparation to see where I stood, and I scored a 570. It was a baseline, but I knew I had to raise my score to qualify for Bright Futures since I’m planning to attend FIU. The score felt low, and I realized I needed help, especially since I struggled to understand the math questions on the test.

Coming into the course, I was optimistic about the virtual group learning experience. I liked the idea of not having to drive to a location and being able to log in easily. During the classes, I found my group to be just the right size, about five people, and they were at a similar math level. It felt comfortable, and the tutors were responsive to our feedback on the pace of the lessons.

The amount of work was intense, but I was committed. I did around five hours of homework every day, even during vacation, waking up early so I could finish before my family started their day. I knew that practice was essential to do well, and I wanted to maximize my improvement. It was definitely a lot of work, but I found that working during the summer allowed me to focus solely on the SAT without the distraction of school assignments and extracurriculars.

After completing the prep, my math score improved from 690 on my first try to an incredible 790 on my second try! My super score ended up being 1460. I couldn’t believe it—I was really nervous during the first test, and I knew I could do better. The practice I got with Peace of Pi helped me tremendously.

For other students on their SAT prep journey, I recommend following the homework plan closely. It’s important to do the work in the order given, as it builds on itself. Staying calm during the test is also crucial; if you don’t do well the first time, don’t stress about it—take it again if you can. I found that I didn’t need to study as hard for the second test because I had already reviewed everything through the program.

Overall, my experience with Peace of Pi was incredibly positive, and I’m grateful for the support and structure they provided. I definitely recommend it to any student looking to improve their SAT scores!

My name is Henry and I go to Doral Academy. I decided to take the Peace of Pi SAT prep course after receiving a low PSAT score. I wanted to ensure I did well on the SAT the first time I took it. Before starting the course, I felt like I knew a lot of math material, but it turned out I didn’t fully understand the specific types of problems the SAT tests. Once I realized that SAT math questions follow specific patterns, everything started to click.

I found Peace of Pi through a friend’s suggestion, and their positive reviews made me trust their recommendation. The weekly homework assignments kept me focused, and the Zoom meetings were great since the small class sizes felt very personalized. Initially, I had low expectations for virtual learning, especially after my experiences during the Zoom years. However, this course completely surpassed my expectations—the tutors made the material clear, and I genuinely understood everything.

I was also unsure about group learning at first, thinking it might make things harder. Instead, it ended up helping me a lot. Knowing others were struggling with the same problems as me made me feel less alone, and overall, it greatly improved my experience.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I scored a 780 on the math section of the SAT, which helped me qualify for Bright Futures and improve my chances at National Merit. The skills I gained also helped me in my classes, especially with algebra. I can’t express enough how much this course and the amazing tutors meant to me. I’m so happy and surprised that my score increased that much—thank you!

“The program pushed me to stay on top of my studies, and it taught me the importance of time management.

[read more]

My name is Alice Silva, and I’m a 12th-grade student at School for Advanced Studies. Before joining Peace of Pi, I realized that my SAT math score needed a lot of improvement. I hadn’t studied algebra or geometry since middle school, and although I was taking calculus, many of the foundational math concepts felt distant. I had a 610 in math, which wasn’t enough for my goal of 100% Bright Futures. I wanted to give myself the best chance possible to succeed at that and to feel confident applying to top schools like UF, especially since their SAT requirements had become more competitive. 

Before the program, I generally understood math well but had forgotten a lot of the specific material I needed for the SAT. Certain topics, like percentage questions, trigonometry, and pre-calculus, were difficult, and I struggled with them the most. I knew I needed more than just a quick refresher—I needed a structured program to really reinforce these areas.

When I first started the course, I had an idea of what to expect because I had a friend who had already done Peace of Pi during the school year. However, I definitely underestimated how intense it would be, especially since I took the course over the summer. There was a lot of homework, practice tests, and weekly meetings, and it required me to stay disciplined and manage my time well. It was tough, especially balancing it with summer travel, but I was committed.

The virtual group learning experience was better than I expected. I worked with three different tutors throughout the course, and all of them were excellent. They explained every concept clearly and made sure we fully understood the material before moving on. They were attentive and always available to help if I had any questions. I appreciated how straightforward and easy-to-understand their explanations were, which made a big difference when tackling challenging topics.

After completing the course, my math score jumped from 610 to 770—a 160-point improvement! My overall SAT score also increased from 1270 to 1410, which is something I’m really proud of. Thanks to that improvement, I now qualify for 100% Bright Futures, which is a huge relief, and I feel much more confident about applying to schools like UF.

Looking back, the hard work was definitely worth it. The program pushed me to stay on top of my studies, and it taught me the importance of time management. My advice to other students would be to understand that it’s going to be a big commitment. You have to put in the work, ask questions when you’re stuck, and trust the process. In the end, all the homework, quizzes, and practice tests will pay off!

Hi, my name is Austin Otero. I’m a senior at Palmetto Senior High School. Before joining Peace of Pi, my SAT math score wasn’t improving at all. I had taken the test multiple times, and I even went down in one of my scores. I was frustrated because I felt like I was doing well, but my score kept coming back lower than what I needed. I was getting below a 1300 overall, and I knew I needed to improve to be competitive for schools like Cornell and other top colleges. That’s when I realized I needed tutoring.

I was initially hesitant about the virtual group learning environment because I expected it to be like the online school experience during COVID, which wasn’t engaging at all… but it was totally different. The tutors made sure that everyone participated. If you got a question wrong, they would go over it with you individually until you understood it. That made a huge difference because it forced me to really learn the material, not just skim through it.

The course was a lot of work—there’s definitely a good amount of homework—but it paid off in the end. I went from a 610 in math to a 730, which is a 120-point improvement! This result has put me in a much better position for my college applications, and now I feel more confident about getting the score I need.

For other students, I’d say the biggest thing is to stay consistent. Try to do a little bit every day, even if it feels like a lot. Don’t wait until the last minute and try to cram it all in. The work is manageable if you spread it out, and it really helps in the end. I’m really grateful for the support and the structure that Peace of Pi gave me—it helped me get the results I needed!

My name is Angeline Fuxa, and I took the Peace of Pi SAT prep course in May/June. What made me realize I needed this service was my PSAT score of 450, which is below what I had hoped for. I knew I needed people to actively help me with math because teaching myself wasn’t going to cut it. 

I needed a higher score to apply to schools like Duke University, but there’s a lot of geometry and Algebra 1 on the SAT, and at the time, I was taking pre-calc, so I didn’t remember much of that information. Before the prep, I started getting better at math when I took Algebra 2 in sophomore year, but the SAT includes topics I hadn’t been good at. 

I’ve never really been a math person, but the course taught me a lot. It helped me think outside the box, and now, I find geometry and algebra much easier. Before tutoring, I was clueless—I had a 560 in math, and I guessed on almost every question. But after the course, I actually knew how to answer.

I didn’t have high expectations for virtual group learning, but I was pleasantly surprised. I liked that you had to have your camera on and that everyone had to participate. The engagement was key to learning. 

One thing I’d tell any student considering the course is that you’ll have to put in a lot of work. There’s a lot of homework and practice exams, but it’s worth it. I used every bit of free time—at a friend’s house, in between classes, at the library—to focus on the course. Because of that, my math score increased by 120 points, from 560 to 680. It’s given me a lot of hope, and I believe I can push it into the 700s. The tutors were amazing, and I couldn’t have done it without them.

Hi, I’m Paula Cohen, a junior at Krop. When I first took the PSAT, I was shocked to see a score of 570 in math, especially since math had always been my strength. Realizing I needed at least a 700 to apply to my dream colleges, I knew I had to find a program that could help me achieve my goals. That’s when I found Peace of Pi.

Before joining Peace of Pi, I tried studying on my own using Khan Academy, but I struggled to create an effective study plan and stay consistent. I quickly realized that I needed guidance from experts who truly understood the SAT. After hearing positive feedback from my classmates, I decided to give Peace of Pi a try, despite some initial doubts about the virtual group environment.

To my surprise, the virtual classes were incredibly engaging. The small group setting and the interactive approach, where we had to answer questions and explain our reasoning, kept me focused and made the four-hour sessions fly by. The tutors at Peace of Pi were amazing and reliable, always ready to answer any questions and provide detailed explanations for every problem.

The program required a lot of hard work, it was kind of like taking an extra AP class, but it was entirely worth it. By dedicating time daily, managing my schedule well, and staying consistent with my practice, I saw a tremendous improvement. The practice exams were particularly beneficial, allowing me to track my progress and identify areas that needed more attention.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I achieved a 230-point increase, ultimately scoring an 800 in math. This score has opened doors for me to apply to all the colleges I aspire to attend, and I’m relieved to have completed the SAT early in my junior year. My advice to other students is to start studying as early as possible and to be willing to put in the necessary effort. With dedication and the right support, significant improvement is possible.

I’m incredibly grateful to the team at Peace of Pi, especially my tutor, Mars, for her guidance and support throughout this journey. This program truly helped me achieve my goals, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their SAT scores. Thank you, Peace of Pi!

My name is Michelle Bethencourt and I go to Archbishop McCarthy. Before joining Peace of Pi’s SAT Prep Course, I wasn’t seeing the growth I was looking for in my SAT math score. Math has never been my strongest subject, and I was having a hard time finding effective ways to study. It was frustrating to encounter questions on the test that I knew I had learned before but couldn’t remember how to solve. 

I found out about Peace of Pi through a friend whose score had dramatically improved, and I was really impressed. Despite being nervous about the virtual and group learning environments—especially since I had tried similar setups before with little success—I decided to give it a try. 

Peace of Pi is nothing short of 100% effective! The tutors are incredibly dedicated, making the classes engaging and keeping your attention throughout. The virtual learning environment turned out to be more focused than I expected, and the group setting was surprisingly beneficial. 

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I increased my math score by 90 points, which raised my overall SAT score from 1210 to 1390. This improvement helped me qualify for full Bright Futures, relieving a significant amount of stress as I head into my senior year.

My name is Hayden Hughes, and I’m a senior at Archbishop McCarthy High School. I took the Peace of Pi SAT prep course in the spring of 2024 because my math score wasn’t improving, even after trying multiple study programs and tutors. My score was only fluctuating by about 10 points, and none of the tips I learned seemed to stick. This was frustrating since I needed to see real progress.

A friend who had benefited from Peace of Pi recommended the program to me. I chose to enroll because I knew I needed more discipline in my study routine, something I hadn’t tried before. The course offered thorough check-ups and clear explanations whenever I had questions, which made a big difference.

I was initially concerned about the virtual learning environment, thinking I might get distracted, but the tutors kept me focused and on track. I also assumed that the group setting would make the experience less personalized, but it still felt tailored to my specific needs.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I boosted my SAT score by 130 points. This improvement has earned me 100% Bright Futures and has set me up for a much smoother senior year.

My name is Sebastian Romero, and I’m a junior at Christopher Columbus High School. After taking the PSAT and not getting the score I wanted, I realized I needed help, especially in math. I heard about Peace of Pi from a friend on my soccer team, so I decided to give it a try. My goal was to improve my math score and secure Bright Futures by the end of my junior year, so I wouldn’t have to worry about it during senior year.

Before starting with Peace of Pi, I had tried other tutoring services but only saw minimal improvement. The virtual group learning environment with Peace of Pi was different. It was more engaging, and the results spoke for themselves. I went from only a 30-point increase with another service to improving my SAT score by 100 points after this program. That’s a huge difference!

The biggest challenge was managing all the work with my busy schedule, including soccer practice. But I made sure to complete the assignments when I was focused, not just going through the motions. The final weeks of the course were critical—reviewing everything helped me lock in the material just before the test. That effort paid off when my SAT math score increased significantly.

If you’re serious about improving your score, you need to commit to the work. This program will show you the way, but you have to walk it. Don’t expect results if you don’t put in the effort.

My name is Isabella Rey, and I’m an 11th-grade student at Mast Academy. Before finding Peace of Pi, I was stuck in a frustrating cycle with my SAT Math score. Despite one-on-one tutoring, my results barely budged, and I was starting to doubt my math abilities, even though I’d always excelled in school. I was feeling defeated and unsure if I could reach the score I needed for college and scholarships like Bright Futures.

Everything changed when I started with Peace of Pi. At first, I was skeptical about virtual group learning, thinking it might not be as effective as one-on-one tutoring. But I quickly realized it was even better! The tutors were incredibly attentive and supportive, and the structured environment kept me focused. They knew exactly when I was struggling and made sure I understood each concept before moving on.

The program required a lot of dedication, and I had to prioritize my SAT prep over some schoolwork. But it was worth it. I went from a 570 in Math to a 720, and my overall SAT score jumped from 1170 to 1380! Beyond the numbers, Peace of Pi gave me peace of mind. I no longer stress about the SAT; I’ve secured Bright Futures, and I know I’m well-prepared for college.

If I could give advice to other students, it would be to not get discouraged by early practice test scores. Overprepare and trust the process. Peace of Pi works, and if you commit to it, you’ll see the results you’re aiming for!

My name is Nicholas Filet, and I’m a junior at Mast Academy. Before starting this course, I was struggling with the math section of the SAT. I had tried using resources like Khan Academy, but I wasn’t seeing any real improvement. Math has never been my strong suit, and I realized that without a solid foundation, I wouldn’t be able to achieve the score I needed. A good friend of mine recommended this program after seeing great results, so I decided to give it a shot.

From the start, I could tell this course was different. The structured group sessions, combined with the detailed notes and support, made a huge difference. The virtual environment allowed me to learn from others’ questions and strategies, which was incredibly valuable. The course didn’t just help me learn new material—it also reinforced the basics that I had been missing.

One of the biggest challenges for me was managing time during the test. The course helped me develop a rhythm, which was crucial. Geometry and time management were my main pain points, and the program addressed both head-on. Thanks to this, I improved my SAT math score by 150 points, bringing my total score into the 1300s. I’m now much more confident and better prepared to tackle the next steps in my academic journey.

This course isn’t easy. It requires a lot of work and dedication, but the results are worth it. If you’re willing to put in the effort, you’ll see significant improvement. My advice for anyone considering this program? Be prepared, stay organized, and fully commit. It’s a tough course, but it delivers big results.

My name is Ilana Croitorescu, and I’m an 11th grader at Dr. Michael Krop High School. I started taking the SAT back in August and quickly realized my scores weren’t improving. It was frustrating, and I knew I had to change my approach if I wanted to succeed. I had been doing one-on-one tutoring, but it wasn’t giving me the results I was aiming for. I knew I could achieve a higher score, so I started looking for a new program.

That’s when I found out about Peace of Pi from my friends. They had taken the course for the October and November SATs and none of them scored below a 730 in math, with one even getting a perfect score. Hearing that, I knew I had to sign up.

The course wasn’t easy, but it was worth it. The tutors are amazing at explaining the material, but more than that, it’s about dedication and practice. The weekly assignments were a lot, but they really made a difference. I quickly learned that studying for the SAT isn’t just about understanding the material—it’s about consistent practice. The online group environment was surprisingly interactive, and even though I wasn’t sure about learning online at first, I ended up learning a lot.

My main tutor, Cori, was incredible. She kept us engaged and made sure we were always participating. Thanks to Peace of Pi, I was able to improve my math score by 90 points, reaching a 690, which was exactly what I was hoping for. This score has opened up more opportunities for me when it comes to college applications. The SAT can be challenging, but with the right preparation and mindset, you can achieve the results you want.

My name is Juliette Gonzalez, and I’m a junior at the School for Advanced Studies Kendall campus. I first realized I needed SAT tutoring when my PSAT math score dropped to 600, which was much lower than before. I tried self-study using the College Board book, but it wasn’t enough. 

That’s when I turned to Peace of Pi. I heard about their services through friends, Elizabeth and Natalie, both of whom saw significant improvements in their scores after working with them. I was particularly motivated when I learned that Ellie had nearly achieved an 800 in math. Knowing that my friends had positive experiences, I decided to give it a try.

The virtual group learning environment was surprisingly effective. The sessions were well-paced, and I appreciated how personalized the homework was. My tutor, Chloe, was fantastic—she really motivated us. I also liked that I could watch solution videos whenever I got stuck.

One of the major benefits of Peace of Pi was the push to stay disciplined. The program helped me establish a routine and stick to it, even when I was tired or overwhelmed. It was a lot of work, but I knew it was worth it. The assignments were challenging, but they were also personalized to target my weaknesses, which helped me improve where I needed it most. The practice tests were another highlight—they were incredibly valuable in helping me prepare for the real thing.

Before joining Peace of Pi, I scored a 650 in math on the SAT. After the course, I improved to a 760, which was enough for Bright Futures and made me feel more confident about applying to UF. The practice tests and structured assignments helped me stay on track, and studying with friends added a fun, competitive edge. Overall, the course pushed me to stay disciplined, and it was definitely worth it.

My name is Tara Secilmis, and I’m currently an 11th grader at Doral Academy. Preparing for the SAT was a challenging journey for me, especially when I was relying solely on book-based methods. The traditional prep books, including the College Board SAT books, weren’t effective for me. I found myself repeating mistakes without truly understanding the material, despite going through numerous practice tests.

I realized I needed a more hands-on and repetitive approach to learning. That’s when I discovered Peace of Pi. Before starting with them, I took the SAT for the first time in August and scored a 510 in Math. This was disappointing because I knew I could do better, and I needed to improve significantly to qualify for Bright Futures.

My main struggles were with timing and staying focused during the test. I would get easily distracted and never finished on time when practicing alone. Peace of Pi changed that for me. They introduced techniques like using a clock to manage my time better and encouraged me to turn off my phone to minimize distractions. This structured approach helped me improve my focus and speed.

Peace of Pi provided a supportive and interactive learning environment, even through Zoom sessions. The tutors were amazing, creating a fun yet disciplined atmosphere that kept me engaged. They were not only knowledgeable but also genuinely cared about my progress, always checking in on how I was doing both academically and personally.

The intensive program at Peace of Pi was demanding but incredibly effective. It taught me valuable skills like time management and responsibility, which were crucial given my busy junior year schedule. Although it meant sacrificing some personal time, including my daily naps, the results were worth it.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, my math score improved from 510 to 610, and I’m confident I’ll continue to see progress. The improvement has brought me closer to achieving my goal for Bright Futures. Peace of Pi has been instrumental in my SAT prep journey, and I highly recommend it to anyone serious about improving their scores. It’s an investment that pays off, not just in terms of test scores, but in building essential study habits and discipline.

My name is Nicolas Bearzi, and I’m in 11th grade at MAST Academy. I realized I needed better tutoring when I worked with another company that didn’t help me achieve my desired SAT score. Then I heard about Peace of Pi, and after seeing all their score improvements on Instagram, decided to try it out. 

Although I was always better at the reading section, Peace of Pi significantly improved my math skills.Before tutoring, I was good at both reading and math, but my math performance was held back, mainly because I needed more practice. I had taken Geometry a while ago, and I needed constant reminders and repetition to recall the concepts. Peace of Pi’s exercises helped me remember and master these areas.

I needed a good SAT score to qualify for the Bright Futures Scholarship, which would help me attend college in Florida with reduced or free tuition. Achieving this score was crucial, especially since I wanted to attend UF, a top university in the state.

I learned about Peace of Pi from my friend Rodrigo Fernandez. Initially, I was skeptical about the virtual group learning environment, expecting it to be less effective than in-person tutoring. However, to my surprise, the online format worked better for me than my previous in-person tutoring. I had no complications with it, and I ended up studying much more effectively.

The virtual setup didn’t negatively impact my learning at all, if anything, it was a helpful tool. At first, I was concerned about printing papers, but then I started using my iPad for practice, which worked perfectly. The numerous practice questions were crucial, and the ability to work digitally made it easier to keep up with the workload.

In the end, Peace of Pi exceeded my expectations and provided me with the necessary support to improve my math skills and achieve a competitive SAT score. I improved my SAT math score from 610 to 760, and my overall SAT score increased from 1250 to 1400. That’s +150 points!  I’m grateful for the experience and the results it helped me obtain.

My name is Aldo Zambrano. I’m in 11th grade, and I attend Archbishop McCarthy High School. I’ve always been good at math, but my SAT math scores kept declining. My first SAT Math score was a 620, but then it dropped to 540. That was when I realized I needed a math tutor to help me improve.

I started taking the SAT early in my junior year. The scores I was getting were surprising to me because I was taking Calculus Honors at that time, and I expected better results based on my math skills. It was clear I needed help, especially to qualify for Bright Futures and to achieve competitive scores for colleges like UF, Georgetown, Boston College, and Boston University, which require scores in the high 1400s to 1500s.

My friend reposted Peace of Pi on Instagram, and I decided to check it out. It seemed efficient, and my friend said it was a lot of work but effective. Initially, I was skeptical about the Zoom format since I preferred in-person tutoring. However, the sessions turned out to be engaging and effective. The tutors were attentive, funny, and ensured we stayed on track with our homework.

During COVID, I struggled with online learning, especially with Geometry. With Peace of Pi, I relearned Geometry in just a couple of days. Unlike my school’s online classes during COVID, Peace of Pi provided personalized attention, making sure I understood each concept and stayed focused.

The service requires a lot of work, including about two hours of homework daily, but it’s worth it. I fit the work into my schedule by doing it during school hours whenever possible and completing the rest at home. The structured homework plan and constant reminders from tutors helped me stay on track and avoid procrastination.

The most helpful aspect of Peace of Pi was the tutors’ attention during Zoom calls, ensuring we participated and understood the material. The homework plan was also crucial, preventing me from cramming and helping me stay organized.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, my SAT math score improved from 620 to 760, and my overall SAT score went from 1260 to 1380, with a super score of 1400. I achieved 100% Bright Futures, which means I can pay for college in Florida. This result has opened up opportunities for a better future and allows me to pursue a degree in finance.

My name is Isabel Andjell, and I’m a junior at Downtown Doral Charter Upper School. I wanted to share my experience with Peace of Pi’s SAT Math tutoring service. Initially, I tried to self-study for the December SAT using Khan Academy and YouTube videos. However, I wasn’t retaining the information well, and I struggled to apply the strategies I learned. 

Seeing other students preparing for the SAT over the summer made me realize I also needed to start preparing seriously. At first, I found it difficult to stay consistent and motivated studying on my own. I had scored 1250 on the December SAT, which was below my target for the universities I aimed to apply to. FSU, UMich, and UF, typically expected scores in the 1300s to 1500s. 

I’ve always been better at reading than math. While I’m not terrible at math, I tend to forget concepts like algebra and geometry if I don’t use them regularly. Realizing I needed a thorough review and more practice, I turned to Peace of Pi after hearing positive reviews from friends who had taken the course.

Before starting, I expected the virtual group environment to be a lecture-style format. However, I was pleasantly surprised by how interactive and hands-on the classes were. The teachers were engaging and attentive, calling us out if we slacked off and offering immediate help if we seemed confused. This level of engagement was far better than my experience during COVID remote learning, where I could often zone out without consequences.

The service requires a strong dedication, as I often told my friends. It’s a commitment, but the effort truly pays off. By the end of the course, I felt well-prepared for the March SAT. I even found myself teaching techniques and concepts I learned to friends who were also preparing, demonstrating how effective the course had been.

In my final SAT attempt, I improved a significant 110-points from my initial score. I felt incredibly proud and accomplished with this improvement. Seeing my score increase to 580 from 690 was a significant milestone.Peace of Pi showed me that all the hard work and dedication I put into the program was worthwhile. This experience gave me confidence in my abilities and reaffirmed that with the right support and effort, I could achieve my academic goals.

Managing the workload was challenging, involving many late nights and long study sessions, but the results were worth it. I highly recommend Peace of Pi to anyone serious about improving their SAT scores. It’s tough, but if you’re willing to put in the work, the improvement is significant and rewarding.

My name is Bridgette Huerta, and I’m an 11th grader at Florida Christian. I’ve always excelled in math, consistently earning A’s in my classes. However, despite my strong math skills, I struggled significantly with the SAT math section. My low PSAT scores were a clear indicator that I needed help, and that’s when I discovered Peace of Pi Learning.

Initially, I was skeptical about the virtual group learning environment, but it turned out to be highly effective. The convenience of not having to commute and the comfort of studying from home were significant advantages. The group setting was beneficial because all of us were at a similar level, so the questions and challenges we faced were common to everyone. This created a collaborative and supportive learning atmosphere.

The program wasn’t easy by any means, but neither is the SAT. It required a lot of dedication and hard work. I had to sacrifice social outings and commit to completing all the practice material and homework. At the end of the program, all those sacrifices paid off tremendously. My math score improved from 500 to 690. Those +190 points on the SAT Math transformed my college applications, and my confidence! 

One crucial piece of advice I would give to anyone considering this program is not to procrastinate. Initially, I put off my homework, thinking I could catch up later, but this approach only made things harder. It’s much more manageable to do a little each day rather than cramming at the last minute.

The improvement I saw in my scores was a testament to the effectiveness of the Peace of Pi program. It’s challenging but incredibly rewarding. For any student serious about improving their SAT math score, this program is worth the effort. Just remember, you have to put in the work. 

Peace of Pi truly helped me realize my potential, and I’m now more confident in tackling any academic challenge that comes my way. If you’re considering this program, be prepared to work hard, but know that the results will be worth it.

Before starting the course, I was scoring averagely on the math section of the SAT, but had completely forgotten some fundamental algebra concepts, which was causing me a lot of stress.

There was a point in my journey where I was starting to feel unmotivated. I would slack off on homework and assignments, and just felt overwhelmed. Renan reached out to me, and after a motivating conversation, I felt reinvigorated with the strength to push through the second half of the program. In the end, thanks to Peace of Pi, I saw a positive result of +80 extra points on my SAT math section!

This became a problem when I took a diagnostic SAT test and got a score that I wasn’t happy with. I didn’t think studying on my own would help, so I looked for a tutoring service and heard great things about Peace of Pi Learning. I knew they were the best option for me.

I took the PSAT and didn’t score well, which was disappointing, considering I’m two years ahead in math, currently in AP Calc A/B. I realized that even though I was advanced, I missed a lot of foundational tricks and nuances in algebra and geometry. Peace of Pi helped me understand the tricky wording of the questions and what they were really asking for, which made a huge difference.

I found out about Peace of Pi from my sister’s friend, Annabelle Schiff, who got an 800 with their help. Seeing her success made me believe that if I put in the work, I could improve too. At first, I was unsure about the virtual group learning environment, especially since it involved long Zoom sessions. But it turned out to be very interactive. The tutor kept us engaged, so it didn’t feel like a boring lecture. The small group setting made learning more effective compared to a large class.

Peace of Pi kept me accountable with regular check-ins and deadlines. The tutors emphasized that doing the work was crucial, and their constant encouragement helped me stay on track. Even though it required a lot of dedication, I knew it was worth it for the results I wanted.

Last October or November, I took the PSAT, and my math score was much lower than I hoped for. My friends who had already started tutoring had higher scores than me, and I realized I needed to improve if I wanted to get into the colleges on my list, like Georgia Tech, Princeton, and Boston College. Even though many of these schools are test-optional, academic advisors suggested submitting a good score could still be beneficial.

I’ve never been particularly strong in math, so when I saw my PSAT score, I knew I needed help. A family friend and some other acquaintances recommended this tutoring service, and after seeing their improvements, I decided to give it a try.

Initially, I was nervous about the virtual group learning environment and the long sessions. However, after the first session, I realized it was engaging and that the format would be manageable. Unlike boring online learning during the pandemic, the tutors at Peace of Pi kept us involved and constantly engaged.

Balancing the tutoring sessions with my swimming practice and other activities was challenging. I had to meticulously schedule my time, often doing homework on the way to practice or during breaks at school. It was a lot of work, but being dedicated to the process made it possible.

The practice tests were incredibly beneficial. They helped with time management and gave me a comprehensive understanding of the test format. The mock tests for both math and English were particularly helpful, as they prepared me for the actual test environment.

When I first started, my PSAT math score was 520. After working with the tutoring service, my SAT score improved to 720, a 200-point increase!  This improvement has motivated me to keep pushing myself, knowing that with hard work, I can achieve even higher scores.

Overall, Peace of Pi has shown me that dedication and hard work pay off. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their scores. It’s not easy, but the results are worth the effort. If you’re serious about achieving your academic goals, Peace of Pi is the way to go.

I was eager to tackle the SAT before it went online, as I heard all about how it would be more challenging. Math wasn’t my strongest subject, so I knew I’d need some guidance. I struggled especially in geometry, where I felt I lacked a solid foundation.

Before I started tutoring with Peace of Pi, I took a PSAT and scored a 1290. Although I aimed to improve my score, I knew that math wasn’t my forte. I trusted myself more with the reading portion, so I focused on perfecting my math skills with Peace of Pi.

The virtual group learning environment at Peace of Pi met my expectations and more. Their method is truly innovative, and is something I’ve never seen before. The tutors were incredibly engaging, making the sessions interactive, which helped me focus on the material.

Without studying, I scored a 1350, with a 720 in the reading section but only a 630 in math. My goal was to improve my math score to be competitive for the colleges I wanted to apply to. 

I tried another tutoring service, but my score actually went down to a 1290 on my second attempt. That’s when I heard about Peace of Pi Learning from some friends. They told me it would be a lot of work, but worth it for the improvement I could have. 

I signed up for Peace of Pi Learning, and it made a huge difference. Initially, the SAT math wasn’t my thing. Despite being ahead in math at school, I struggled with the SAT format and algebra skills. The transition from online school during COVID didn’t help either. However, my friends assured me that the virtual group learning at Peace of Pi would be engaging, and they were right. The four-hour sessions once a week were manageable, especially with the flexibility to complete assignments on my own time.

The program’s structure was incredibly supportive. The constant check-ins and quick responses to questions were invaluable. The assignments and practice exams were challenging but essential in helping me improve. I especially appreciated the feedback on assignments, which helped me understand and remember the material better.

Peace of Pi Learning’s approach was different from my previous tutoring experience. The material adapted to my level, progressively becoming more challenging as I improved. This targeted practice was crucial for my progress. The combination of assignments, class sessions, and practice exams created a perfect learning environment. Ultimately, my math score increased from 630 to 730, and my overall SAT score went from 1350 to 1450.

This improvement has allowed me to submit my scores to more competitive schools and feel proud of my achievements.

If you’re debating whether to choose Peace of Pi Learning, do it. It will help you, and you won’t regret it. The program requires effort, but the results are worth it.

Hi! I’m Daniela Padron and I’m currently a junior at Divine Savior Academy. My journey with Peace of Pi Learning has been nothing short of transformative. Initially, I sought out tutoring services because I felt that I could do better in math, especially if I wanted to achieve a 100% Bright Futures scholarship. Despite considering myself a decent math student, I realized that there were gaps in my understanding that needed to be addressed.

Before joining Peace of Pi Learning, I had contemplated self-tutoring but lacked the discipline and guidance to make significant improvements. I felt lost and uncertain about how to elevate my scores and reach my academic goals. That’s when a friend, Camila Moran, recommended Peace of Pi Learning to me.

From the very beginning, I was impressed by the virtual group learning environment. Despite my initial reservations about online classes, the sessions exceeded my expectations. The engaging format and manageable class sizes ensured that I received personalized attention and had ample opportunities to practice problem-solving.

One aspect that particularly stood out to me was the dedication of the tutors. They were patient, knowledgeable, and committed to helping each student succeed. While there were occasional challenges with larger class sizes, the overall experience was positive and conducive to learning.

What truly sets Peace of Pi Learning apart is its emphasis on hard work and dedication. The tutors provided comprehensive resources and support, but it was up to me to put in the effort and complete the homework assignments. By staying organized, managing my time effectively, and diligently working through the material, I was able to see significant improvements in my scores.

Thanks to the invaluable support of Peace of Pi Learning, I was able to achieve a remarkable score of 780 on my SAT, representing a 210-point improvement from my PSAT. This achievement not only secured me the 100% Bright Futures scholarship but also opened up a world of possibilities for my future academic endeavors.

Looking ahead, I am excited about the prospect of exploring various university options and pursuing opportunities that were once beyond my reach. Whether I choose to stay closer to home or venture further afield, I am confident that the skills and knowledge gained through Peace of Pi Learning will continue to serve me well.

In conclusion, I wholeheartedly recommend Peace of Pi Learning to any student seeking to improve their academic performance and unlock their full potential. With dedication, perseverance, and the right support system, anything is possible. Thank you, Peace of Pi Learning, for helping me reach new heights in my academic journey.
