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. 

My name is Jason Gomez, and I turned to Peace of Pi after receiving a low math score on my SAT. Everything was going fine until I discovered that my math score was lower than I expected, which was stopping me from qualifying for the Bright Futures scholarship.

I found out about Peace of Pi through my cousin, and chose to work with them after I saw the many positive reviews and success stories from students who achieved high math scores. The service provided was excellent and supportive. The tutors always pushed me to complete the homework they assigned and stay on track for a score improvement

Initially, I didn’t have high expectations for the virtual learning experience. I thought most students wouldn’t participate and the tutor would be strict. However, when I joined the Zoom sessions, everyone was relaxed, and the tutor was incredibly nice and helpful, even when we made mistakes. The group learning environment was also very supportive, making me feel less alone. Whenever I got a question wrong, there was always someone else in the same situation, which was reassuring.

When I got my SAT results back, I achieved a 730 on the math section! This was a huge +160 point improvement from my original score of 570. This score has relieved my family’s financial worries and allowed me to apply for the Bright Futures scholarship. Thank you, Peace of Pi, for helping me achieve my goals and reducing the stress for me and for my family!

My name is Miguel Barreda, and I took  Peace of Pi’s SAT Math Prep Course in October. I needed the service because I wanted to meet the SAT requirement for the Bright Futures scholarship.

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. My mom found Peace of Pi while looking for ways to help improve my score. Peace of Pi seemed to have the best tutors in the game, so we decided to go with their program.

I went into it determined to boost my SAT math score, and in the end, I did! I came into the virtual learning experience expecting something like an average school lecture. However, the tutors at Peace of Pi were understanding, willing to help, and focused on improving my skills, which surpassed my expectations. I initially thought the group learning environment would be just words and numbers on a screen, but it turned out to be much more interactive, involving working through homework and receiving helpful pointers.

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 improvement means that once I take the SAT again and boost my reading score, I will qualify for the Bright Futures scholarship. This achievement has significantly reduced my stress and brought me closer to my academic goals. 

My name is Daisy Stein. I’m in 11th grade and I go to Dr. Michael Krop Senior High School. I struggled with algebra and geometry because my teachers weren’t great, so I didn’t learn as much as I should have. 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.

Thanks to Peace of Pi, I improved my SAT math score from 500 to 760, a 260-point increase! This was more than I expected, and now I feel confident about my math score. I still need to work on my reading score, but my math improvement has put me in a great position for college applications.

I highly recommend Peace of Pi Learning. It’s a significant time commitment, but if you’re dedicated and willing to put in the effort, you’ll see amazing results. My friends were initially 

skeptical about the workload, but I told them that the effort is worth it. If you want a good score, you have to put in the work, and Peace of Pi provides the roadmap to achieve that.

I’m Giovanna Musiello, also known as Gio. I’m currently in the 11th grade at Gulliver Prep. I wanted to share my experience with the tutoring service that significantly helped me improve my SAT scores… Peace of Pi!

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.
