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.
