Before I took the March Prep 2022 Course,  the math that primarily appears on the SAT wasn’t my strongest area. That’s because I had already moved ahead to more advanced math classes that the SAT did not test on. I had forgotten a lot of basic math, which you need to know in order to do well on the SAT. . I was at a very low math score of about 470. My mom searched around, asking some friends and they told us about  Peace of Pi. I can’t express how thankful I am that it happened!

I enjoyed working with POP because I could be at home and work on my SAT skills instead of going to a center. Everything was incredible. The team of teachers push you to be the best you can and reach your goal. The whole team made me feel welcome and invited. I was expecting the virtual learning experience to be less engaging on a personal level, like the tutors wouldn’t care as much about your own problems and just give a quick instruction. However, the virtual experience turned out to be very personal. The tutors made sure you understood everything about the topic at hand and wouldn’t shy away from giving you more problems to answer. They surpassed my expectations!

My expectation was that it would be a tough course that taught you everything you needed to know at a fast pace. And  I did in fact learn everything I needed to, but I wouldn’t describe the group learning environment as “tough” since it was very accommodating to my specific needs and pace. This earned me a final score of 650 on the SAT math which is amazing considering where I began! The result was being awarded 75% of the Bright Futures Scholarship and almost a 180 point jump in math.

From the start, I always knew that I wasn’t the best test taker. My scores on the SAT weren’t the best, and despite my self-studying efforts, I would only ever increase by 20 points on the math section. I had already been out of Algebra and Geometry classes for around 3 years, and had forgotten most of the material which accounted for a majority of the SAT math section. These issues caused me major stress and anxiety, leaving me feeling as if there was nowhere for me to turn for help. 

I saw how enrolling in Peace of Pi’s Math Prep Course had helped a couple of my friends get amazing scores. I considered enrolling in the March Prep 2022 Course, and after my initial meet and greet with Renan through Zoom, I knew that this was going to be the right learning style for me.

Peace of Pi’s model is consistently very professional and productive. They are always pushing you and encouraging you to do your best and to study what they have taught through practice tests and homework. It’s a very fun style of learning where during the test you can pretty much hear them telling you tips and tricks that they have embedded during the lectures.  The tutors were always available to provide tools, practice, feedback, and any other resources that I may have needed.

Initially, I was a bit concerned about doing the tutoring virtually because I have personally always struggled with math, even taught in person. After the first lecture all my concerns were blown out of the water! They by far surpassed my expectations for a math tutoring class especially since it was a virtual one. I 100% recommend them as a tutoring service. I really did not know what to expect when it came to the group environment either, but  my experience ended up being amazing! The dynamic was a perfect mix of fun and productive. 

Because of the tutoring I increased by 100 points,resulting in a 630 on the math section!With my 100 point increase, I was able to get the Florida Bright Future Scholarship. I can’t thank Peace of Pi enough!

When I entered into my Junior year of high school, I started to really consider the steps I needed to take for college. I was pretty good at math but I started forgetting material and finding myself feeling confused when online classes and quarantine began. Math was never the most complicated topic for me, but I started noticing that my skills were slowly downgrading and I felt increasingly more lost in my classes each time I attended. This left me feeling very overwhelmed when I thought about the SAT because I really wanted to do well in order to submit competitive applications to my dream universities. 

I had heard of Peace of Pi from people in my school before, but it wasn’t until a close friend of mine convinced me that I enrolled in the March Prep 2022 Course. I had followed the Instagram account for a while and saw clearly, through videos and testimonials of others, how big of an improvement I could achieve. I knew I wanted to be one of the people whose score shot up by more than 100 points! 

The experience provided me with more than I could have ever expected. I knew I was capable of bettering myself, but at first, I didn’t know where to start. Once I started tutoring with Peace of Pi I noticed how the experience is truly effective and how every teacher cares about all the students. They also make the class work and homework specifically tailored to you and your areas of improvement. At first I thought it was going to be easy for me to get distracted with an online interface because that is what happened when I took online classes during quarantine. However, the way in which the classes were taught kept me engaged in the material. I also knew I needed to be present because we were constantly asked questions and helped if we were confused. I was also a little nervous of having classes online because I didn’t know if people would communicate very well, but not only were the teachers exceptional in keeping us engaged but the people in the group were also always cooperative in advancing the class.

I started my math section at a 560 and ended up getting a 720 allowing me to have a total score of 1420 on my SAT! Getting this score has made me much more confident in my college applications and I know I have a greater possibility of being accepted into my list of dream colleges. With this score I also meet the requirement for a 100% Bright Future Scholarship so I am relieved to know I can have that option. I am super grateful for the experience at Peace of Pi. I am extremely happy with my results and I know I could have probably not accomplished them by myself. I think Peace of Pi is the perfect place to go because all the tutors are amazing teachers and people! They care about every single student and their progress and will definitely push to achieve your best.

Let’s set the scene. It was my junior year of high school; correction, zoom school. For years I had thought I understood math and algebra quite well… but when it came online, I witnessed my grades dropping and my SATs scores only went as high as 1160 which was representative of every Tik Tok math trick I could remember at the top of my head. So I asked around for help, and the repeated name from all my high school friends and graduated friends was “Peace of Pi Learning” or “Renan the Tutor.” When I first saw the price, I bit my tongue and felt a little guilty about my mom spending on my struggle. 

Nevertheless, I moved forward with Renan and he had set up an interview to discuss the service. Not only did I feel a bit more comfortable going forward with the tutoring, but I also felt comfortable with my tutor. He was funny throughout the whole program, and most importantly amazing at teaching math problems. He was not only a tutor but one of my favorite math teachers! 

Renan helped me realize I had skill all along. He had an infinite amount of practice packets, tests, and pop questions (and a lot of patience with students) which helped with correcting some of the silliest mistakes ever! 

On my final SAT I scored a 1360, which was my final step toward earning Bright Futures. Today, Bright Futures covers my debts and even repays me the rest at my university. Now I’m in college level math classes, and I feel confident in my abilities again. Thanks to Renan, my Junior year self was proven wrong in her belief that I was “bad at math.”

When I discovered Peace of Pi Learning, I had already begun SAT math tutoring with another tutor, but didn’t feel confident that I was going to be able to reach my maximum potential. I have always been good with numbers and never struggled in school with math, but I was stressed because I thought that I wouldn’t be able to submit a good enough score to apply for competitive colleges. I saw a former student repost their score improvement on  the POP Instagram. As I began scrolling through the posts, I encountered multiple 100+ point improvements!

After meeting with Renan he showed me the way he had his Math Prep Course organized and it was clear that it was no joke. He had videos of explanations for each question in over 15 SAT practice tests!  After completing the course, I can confidently say that there is no doubt in my mind that Renan and his team will take every single one of their students to their maximum potential. From his organization of levels for every type of student,  to the specific way he introduces each topic,it is almost impossible for you not to understand as long as you’re doing your part. 

The group learning dynamic worked perfectly and it didn’t take away from the attention that Renan could have on each individual student. He made sure everyone understood everything and was always available to answer your questions, even if you ask him something on a random day and not during the tutoring session.

I reached my maximum potential in understanding all the topics imagianable. I have a score of 720 right now after starting with a 580. I am confident that I will even be able to acquire a better score and avoid some silly mistakes on the test. This result has made me less stressed in senior year and improved my chances of getting into all the colleges that I will be applying to.

Everything about the course is great but if I had to highlight one thing it would be the videos explaining every question. They are what I relied on the most in the last two weeks of my prep. If I had one piece of advice it would be to do a practice section as often as possible and go back to watch the videos of the problems  you got wrong. Renans videos can be as short as 30 seconds to maximum 2 minutes and they explain the problem as simply as if it was “2+2!”

In the beginning of 2021, I had taken a few SAT Exams and was able to get a score of 1150. Although this score was close to the score I needed to be granted the Bright Futures Scholarship, I still knew that I needed an extra push to get me to a score above 1210. I was stressed because I didn’t know how to bring up my score since I already dedicated lots of time and effort into achieving my last score and didn’t know what else I could do. 

My friend had plenty of positive feedback about Peace of Pi and recommended that I look into enrolling in their course. This was the best decision I could’ve made for my improvement, the service was excellent! I took the course in May/June of 2022. Not only did I learn a lot in a very organized manner, but I also was able to feel comfortable in class asking questions and for extra help. 

At first, I was turned off by the virtual aspect of the course, but after trying it, I felt that it surpassed my expectations completely! The group learning environment was something else I didn’t want to do, but ended up really enjoying! It was pace well and the questions asked by other students were helping me understand things I didn’t even realize I was confused about. Also, knowing my fellow students’ way to view or solve problems gave me more options to do what I feel more comfortable with.

The final result I got of a 1260 made me and my family extremely happy! Peace of Pi gave me what I wanted and more by securing me Bright Futures and a stronger foundation in math. 

Right before I decided to enroll in Peace of Pi’s March 2022 Prep course, I was in a position that despite knowing I wanted a better SAT score, I was struggling greatly in the math section of the SAT. This imposed an immense amount of stress and pressure on me and left me feeling like I had nowhere to turn for guidance.

That was until, by reference of a friend, I was introduced to POP! Their program promised effective improvement and results, which they certainly delivered on. Their philosophy that their students’ success matters made for a group that was controlled and fun to work with. My  expectations were met and exceeded! The class was still very engaging online and easy to adapt to since I had experience with technology. My final result was an improvement of over 100 points on the math section of the SAT! This earned me 75% of the Bright Futures Scholarship. I’m forever grateful to POP!

When I had just begun studying for the SAT, I had no motivation. For many reasons I was finding it difficult to understand many of the math problems. My standing was at a 590 on my PSAT Math and I knew that would not be a good enough score to go to the schools that I wished to apply to. I felt like I was wasting my time studying through conventional methods because my score had hit a plateau.  That was until the fateful day that I stumbled across Peace of Pi through a friend Beno’s Instagram story. 

After meeting with Renan through zoom for the first time, I chose to enroll in the March Prep 2022 Course. I had seen the insane score improvements on the POP Instagram and scheduled a meeting with Renan to see what the course was like. I felt quite intimidated at first, but I knew it was what I had to do to get the score I wanted and now have! The Peace of Pi service is unmatched. There is no other tutor that I know of that runs such an organized system and has such incredible results.

Coming into the course, I was slightly nervous. I did not know what to expect because I have always struggled to fully comprehend information through zoom. I was worried that I would just be watching someone do math problems for 5 hours while taking notes on the other side. However, my expectations were definitely surpassed. The class was SO interactive and there were not any moments where I felt uncomfortable to ask a question. I was also afraid of the group learning environment. After the first five minutes, I learned that everyone is in the same boat, so not to be afraid to ask questions. The environment was very supportive and most of the time, there was at least one other person who was confused about the same thing. 

My final result was a perfect 800 on the SAT Math! Peace of Pi earned me a +210 point improvement. Now that I have a perfect score on my SAT math, so many opportunities have opened up infinitely. I have more realistic outcomes for the colleges I am applying to, and I have a higher chance of earning scholarships. Thankfully, I am done taking the SAT forever! 

For months I continuously found myself feeling cheated by all these SAT tutoring programs that vouched that they would deliver the most promising results to only end up getting the same score over and over again. I was stuck in a plateau and began to lose all hope in being able to get a good SAT score… until I found Peace of Pi.

A friend of a friend referred me to the program and said that they were exceptional in providing reliable and full-proof results in the math section of the SAT, and how they were able to jump 90-100 points in just the math section alone. After looking more thoroughly into the program, I knew the 2021 Summer Prep Course was my best bet at getting a good SAT score. After signing up for the course, I knew I could only go uphill from there. After doing school online for a year because of covid, I had a good understanding of online learning and so the fact that the program was online was really beneficial in being able to enjoy my summer and vacation with my family while simultaneously preparing for the SAT. 

I’ll never be able to express my gratitude for this program and Renan and the dedication he has to actually helping students get a good SAT score and a good shot at getting into college without the financial burden of paying full tuition. I was able to get 75% Bright Futures because of the program! Renan’s expertise and constant reassurance that the math section of the SAT isn’t impossible reassured me all the way through. I finally got the score that I wanted and was able to leave the program with greater confidence and understanding of what I was capable of compared to when I initially signed up for the program. Renan and his tutors are impeccable in ensuring you understand every single aspect of the math section and exactly what to expect on the test. 

Not only did the program provide several laughs and life lessons along the way, Renan and the tutors were there every step of the way to help make sure I fully understood every problem and equation on the exam. Because of this program I’m able to attend the college of my dreams with 75% of my seat paid for, all while being able to actually enjoy my summer and learn beneficial life lessons and laughs along the way so for that I’m forever thankful.

My mom and I learned about Peace of Pi through a coworker whose daughter had previously taken the course and gotten into the university of her dreams. She had been struggling with the SAT math section, and the class had exceeded her expectations. Before Peace of Pi, I scored in the 500s for SAT math, and I was worried about balancing prep for the SAT and focusing on my grades during my junior year of high school.

I had already attempted other forms of prep for the SAT math, but they only helped me in a limited capacity. I knew I needed to try a different approach if I wanted to start scoring higher. My score had me concerned that I was not going to be able to get Bright Futures and other scholarships. I was also worried that I would not have a chance to get into my dream colleges.

I was skeptical about enrolling in the 2021 December Prep Course, but my mom urged me to take the class. And I’m glad she did. It was the best choice I could’ve made to improve my SAT score. At first, I thought the virtual learning experience would not be effective in helping me improve as virtual classes had failed me in the past. But this class was completely different. Renan and all the tutors keep everyone on their feet, answering questions and ensuring that we learn the material. I also thought there would be too many kids in one class to keep the class interactive with all students. But I was wrong. The class size was perfect, and everyone stayed engaged, light-hearted, and motivated. Peace of Pi surpassed my expectations by a long shot. Every aspect of the course was worthwhile.

The course helped me surpass my goal by over 100 points, as I could finally score in the high 700s! This result took a lot of stress away from me during my Junior and Senior years and allowed me to get Florida Bright Futures and other scholarships. I would not be in the advantageous position I am in now if not for my decision to enroll in POP’s course . By the end of the course, I had a handful of choice words to describe their program: engaging, lively, motivating, and interactive. Peace of Pi actually delivers on their promises and is hands down the best SAT tutoring service out there!
