Testimonials

The first time I took the SAT I got a score of 1270. It was a good score for my first test, but I wanted to get a minimum of a 1330 for a chance at the Bright Futures Academic Scholarship. My math score was my lowest score (580) so I was planning on focusing on that by myself.

But then, my dad heard about Renan and Peace of Pi learning through a family friend who had a good experience with the program. After meeting with Renan through Zoom, it was very obvious to us that Renan was very dedicated and super organized with his program so we decided to take the chance.

I hate math so I wasn’t exactly excited for every class and all of the work involved, but I was determined to put in the work and use as much of the help and resources Renan gave us as I could handle and I’m glad I did because it definitely paid off!

I got a 1340 on the June SAT with a 740 in math! I went up 160 points in math and I now qualify for the full Bright Futures Academic Scholarship! This lifts a huge weight off my shoulders and it’s all thanks to Renan and all of the help and resources he provides his students!

In October, I took my first SAT with no tutoring. I got a pretty decent score for my first try, but I knew that I was capable of doing better by taking a prep course. I first heard about Peace of Pi through some friends so I decided to look into the program. I saw tons of testimonials and score improvements and I heard only good things about it, so I signed up for the March SAT prep course.

That was definitely the best decision ever. The course prepared me extremely well with all the material I needed for the math sections of the SAT. Not only was the teaching extremely detailed and covered every single topic that would appear on the SAT, but there was so much material provided for me to work with. If I ever struggled with a certain topic, I would have so many resources to chose from for extra practice. There were also many practice tests available that helped me get comfortable with the format of the test and work on my timing. Also, Renan was very attentive and always available to help when I had doubts or needed extra help. He gave the best tricks and strategies to getting a perfect score and always wanted the best for his students.

After taking the course, my math score when up 100 points. This made me extremely happy because I improved tremendously, and I am forever grateful to Peace of Pi for helping me reach my dream score. This result means so much to me because I was able to pass my goal and reach the high score that I wanted.

Before Peace of Pi Learning I was close to being completely lost. I had pretty much hit a block in the road on my path towards a good SAT score. I had been tutoring from September to December elsewhere, but it didn’t do much for me. I tried the SAT books, the YouTube videos, the online worksheets, and still my scores would not improve at all. All of this was causing me one thing: Stress. Not only could I not reach success regarding the SAT, I couldn’t focus anywhere else either. It may seem dramatic, but as a junior in high school, when you can’t do good on your SAT you begin to question the purpose of all your prior work. That was when my friend told me about Peace of Pi.

The way they described Renan and Cori’s teaching abilities and character seemed to be exactly what everyone else was lacking. They were young, energetic, and relatable, but still very knowledgeable about the SAT and thorough with their explanations. It sounded too good to be true. I had to find out for myself. So I contacted Renan immediately and set up a zoom meeting.

To be honest, a part of me was still doubting that anyone could help me, and I explained that to him when the meeting started. But as soon as I said those things, Renan said something along the lines of “Don’t worry, at least let me explain the course before you give up and then we’ll see if it’s the best fit for you”. And the instant he began explaining the course, I knew: their program was going to be amazing.

My assumptions were correct. Renan manages to keep everyone in class engaged and attentive, while also encouraging his students to do better both in and out of class. There were times where I didn’t score as well as I had wanted on his diagnostics, but he always helped me get passed that, reminding me that my improvement was not going to be linear. It was normal to have bumps along the road and the key was to not give up and continue practicing. He also reassured me that sometimes the best move was to focus on relaxing and reducing my stress, as that seemed to be one of my biggest issues. On my first SAT I received a 190 point increase on my math section, which then went up another 30 points on the test I took one week later and then a final 20 points on my third attempt. It was something I had never even thought of happening. . Renan has a talent for teaching– something many people do not have. Not only that, but he cares for his students more than anyone I have seen before. I can 100% guarantee he will not let you down.

Before Peace of Pi, I was so scared and stressed about the SAT. The date was approaching and I didn’t know what to do to prepare; I tried Khan Academy but it was really inaccurate and I tried studying on my own but I couldn’t motivate myself. Then, my friend gave me Renan’s contact and I immediately contacted him.

When I had my meeting, my mom and I were inspired by his words and he gave me hope that I could get a good score for the first time. He started believing in me when I didn’t believe in myself. Even though I joined 4 weeks late, Renan helped me catch up with all the content I missed and pushed me to do my best.

After the remaining 6 weeks, I felt more confident going into the test and got better results than I expected. I went up 160 points which was an unbelievable improvement for me, all thanks to Renan’s teaching that made me want to learn for 3 hours straight at 9 am.

When December of 2020 came around, I realized that I needed to start studying and preparing myself to take the SAT. Since I had been scoring much lower on the math sections of the PSAT and other practice tests than in the reading, I recognized I would need extra help to achieve the high math scores I wanted on the actual SAT.

Soon after I spoke to my mom, she began asking around for tutoring services until a coworker recommended we reach out to Peace of Pi Learning. Upon contacting them, Renan was quick to schedule a meeting where he would explain what the course entailed and address our questions. I decided to join the tutoring as it was the best thing I could do for myself and my scores, but also because Renan was so welcoming and organized.

There were practice tests, reviews, homework, study guides, and countless other helpful resources made accessible during the tutoring. The sessions were never boring or pointless; almost every topic covered appeared in some way on the test. Renan made the concepts easy to remember and always provided extra practice or elaborated further if we did not completely grasp a topic during the lesson. It was also extremely reassuring to have a teacher who truly cared about their students understanding the material and succeeding.

On the last PSAT I took, I scored a 570 on the math section. Coming out of the SAT, I scored a 750. I went up 180 points in the math section thanks to the countless resources and long hours dedicated to my tutoring. I am so thankful for Renan’s hard work and commitment that allowed me to reach a score I could have never imagined getting without Peace of Pi Learning. With these results, I now have the score to qualify for the 100% Florida Bright Futures Scholarship. I feel confident in applying to colleges and feel like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

I am eternally grateful for Peace of Pi Learning and what they have helped me accomplish. I advise anyone looking to do well in their SAT to sign up because your scores will take you so far and make all of your effort worth it.

Around a year ago, I realized that I would have to take the SAT soon, so I decided to take a practice test. After taking the practice test and looking at my 10th grade PSAT score, I realized that I needed assistance if I wanted to achieve a better score.

The SAT was very intimidating to me and it seemed like I would never be able to master the math section. I was also very busy and dedicating time to study for the SAT on my own was difficult. Plus I was worried that I could not get the scores I needed to get into the universities that I wanted to.

I talked to some friends and they were feeling the same way, one of my friends had been tutored by Renan before and we quickly learned that he provided SAT tutoring services through his company Peace of Pi.

Before we officially began tutoring with him, we sat down and he explained how he would set up the program for us, how many sessions we would have, and how he expected us to improve. Renan seemed like a very organized and dedicated tutor, and that turned out to be true.

Renan is a very patient teacher and loves what he does, he has always put in 100% of his effort to make sure that I could reach my full potential. Not only is he always prepared with SAT practice packets, he has timed practice tests, and many resources for his students to succeed.

I have had a major improvement in my scores, I went from a 620 to a 780! He made this accessible for me with amazing prices that allowed me to have multiple sessions over a long period of time. I never imagined that I could attain such an incredible score and I am extremely thankful for Renan’s commitment to helping me get there.

I am now very confident and proud in my SAT score and feel good about applying to college with this score. If you are looking for an SAT math tutor, I urge you to sign up as soon as you can because Peace of Pi Learning is an investment in your future!

Before signing up with Peace of Pi Learning, I was struggling to achieve a good SAT score. I tried studying on my own by using the college board books and taking many practice tests, but my SAT score was still nowhere near where I wanted it to be, especially if I wanted to get into my dream school, or get the 100% Florida Bright Futures scholarship.

This had me feeling stressed, unmotivated, and upset all the time, so I decided to seek out help.

I found Peace of Pi Learning through Instagram, where I saw people posting about this amazing tutor that helped them achieve major score improvements in math. I looked into their page and website, and was very surprised when I saw such a low price. I immediately signed up and even made one of my close friends sign up too. I took his 8 week course from January-March, in preparation for the March SAT, and from just the first class I could feel myself improving.

The classes I attended were each supposed to be 3 hours long, but a lot of times we would come in early to do extra practice, which shows just how dedicated this company is to its students. Throughout the class we would do practice tests, and practice packets with problems from every topic that can possibly come on the SAT, and we would review all these concepts together to help us get a better understanding of it, and make sure we had it down.

All the packets and practice tests were provided to us, and all of the resources were online, along with extra practice and homework, so we could review whenever we had the chance to. The classes never got boring, I always enjoyed going and the time went by pretty quickly, even though we were practicing the entire time. Taking this 8 week course, my SAT score improved by 80 points, and ensured my dream score in just one take.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I no longer had to study or be in constant worry about the SAT and had more time to focus on school, friends, and my hobbies, and just feel proud and confident in myself when applying to college.

When I first started studying for the SAT, I thought it was something I could tackle on my own. However, after taking the test for the first time and not getting the score I needed for bright futures and the school of my dreams, I realized I needed a tutor and a structure to effectively study.

I was recommended to Renan by other students in my high school who had worked with him and increased their SAT scores by over 100 points. After tutoring with Renan, my score also improved a lot, jumping from the 1200s to a 1360!

Renan was an AMAZING tutor. He was super knowledgeable on the subjects and strategies needed to succeed during the exam. More importantly, Renan explained concepts in a way that was easy to grasp. Renan also has a huge personality, which made tutoring fun and a lot less stressful.

If it wasn’t for Renan I wouldn’t be attending the University of Florida, the school of my dreams.

As a junior in high school the pressure to perform well on the SAT creeped up as I stressed about getting into a good university.

I did pretty well my first time around, but still wanted to improve my score in order to be more competitive for the schools I wanted to get admitted to. After taking a few practice tests, I noticed that my score just wouldn’t budge. I also noticed that all the tests had both very similar formats and very similar questions but I myself couldn’t crack it.

I needed help, but I didn’t want a type of tutoring that would feel like just another class with just another teacher that I dreaded going to. That’s when my friend Rodrigo Coz told me about this guy who was teaching at our school and was offering SAT tutoring, so I decided to give it a shot. Me and three other friends began meeting with Renan twice a week and it quickly became something I looked forward to. I considered it hanging out with friends while being extremely productive.

The way he broke down problems for us practically made the SAT a joke. It got to the point where just by glancing at a question I knew exactly what I was going to be asked. Not only was Renan a brain, but he was also super cool and understanding.

I would recommend his tutoring to anyone looking to excel on the math portion of the SAT. Thanks to his tutoring, I received a perfect score on the math portion of the SAT, enabling me to compete with students around the country and ultimately get gain acceptance to the University of Florida.

I have always been a bit lazy when it comes to studying on my own and could usually get by just fine with last-minute studying. However, when it came to the SAT, there was a lot on the line and I knew I needed a different strategy.

My scores on the mock exams weren’t improving and I felt like there were concepts on the test that I had no idea how to approach, especially on the math section. I knew I needed more exposure to these types of questions, so I decided to get someone to guide me in the process.

Renan was upbeat and young which made the process less boring. He was a great teacher and explained things visually on his whiteboard, which was perfect for me because I’m a visual person and would never understand math without the visual component.

With Renan’s help, I was able to improve my score significantly and surpassed the maximum bright futures threshold, which got my entire tuition paid. I also got an FIU scholarship and got accepted into the University of Florida.

Ultimately, this has enabled me to graduate from college debt free!
