My name is Camila Moran and my journey with Peace of Pi has been nothing short of transformative. As a junior at Doral Academy, I found myself facing challenges in mastering SAT Math. Despite my solid foundation in math, there were significant gaps in my understanding, particularly in geometry and algebra. It was only all made worse by the disruptions of quarantine learning.

Recognizing the need for improvement, I turned to Peace of Pi after witnessing my brother’s success with the program. My initial PSAT score fell far below my expectations, causing stress as I aimed for admission to universities like FIU, where a score of 1340 or higher was the norm. With my starting score of 480, I knew I needed to take action to achieve my goals.

Peace of Pi not only exceeded my expectations but also alleviated my anxieties surrounding the SAT Math section. The interactive virtual learning environment, plus all the video tutorials, provided me with the tools and confidence to tackle even the most challenging questions. Each session was dynamic, competitive, and tailored to address my specific areas of weakness.

Through dedicated practice and commitment—averaging two hours a day, including weekends—I began to see remarkable improvements. The practice exams not only familiarized me with the test format but also honed my problem-solving skills, enabling me to approach each question with clarity and precision.

The result? A significant leap from a score of 480 to an impressive 700! My score is proof of the  effectiveness of Peace of Pi’s methodology and the dedication of its instructors. More importantly, however, the program instilled in me a newfound confidence. 

As a parent, my father, Oscar, can attest to the profound impact Peace of Pi has had on our family. Witnessing my transformation, he wholeheartedly recommends the program to others, recognizing its combination of affordability, effectiveness, and personalized attention. My younger brother is next to embark on the Peace of Pi journey, continuing the legacy within our household. 

In conclusion, I am immensely grateful to Renan and the entire Peace of Pi team for their support and dedication to student success. Their commitment to excellence has not only transformed my academic trajectory but has also empowered me to pursue my dreams with confidence and determination!

“In describing the Peace of Pi program to others, I would say it’s tough, efficient, and effective.”

My name is Alejandro Moreno, and I’m currently in the 11th grade at Belen Jesuit Preparatory School. Before discovering Peace of Pi, I found myself in a bit of a panic. It was late August, and while chatting with friends, I realized that many of them had already begun their SAT preparations. Feeling completely unprepared, I knew I needed to take action.

While I had taken the PSAT during my sophomore year, I hadn’t given much thought to the SAT until then. Suddenly, it became clear that I needed to get serious about my prep. Initially, I considered self-studying, but after attempting a practice exam online, I quickly realized I needed more structured assistance.

That’s when I turned to Peace of Pi. Hearing positive feedback from friends who had already experienced the program, I decided to give it a shot. Additionally, my mom had heard about the program through previous students, further solidifying my decision.

Although I considered myself a decent math student, I recognized the need to focus on improving my math skills for the SAT. I had heard that reading was more challenging to study for, as it relied less on tricks and more on understanding the passages. With this in mind, I decided to prioritize math tutoring to maximize my scores.

The virtual group environment at Peace of Pi was exactly what I needed. Small group sizes and dedicated tutors provided the personalized attention and support I required. Compared to larger classrooms during Covid, the interactive and one-on-one approach was far more effective.

In describing the Peace of Pi program to others, I would say it’s tough, efficient, and effective. While it requires determination and hard work, the results speak for themselves. Thanks to Peace of Pi, I saw a significant improvement in my SAT scores, achieving a 1520 overall and an impressive 790 on the math section.

I am incredibly grateful for the support and flexibility provided by the Peace of Pi team. Their commitment to excellence and dedication to student success are truly commendable. Without their assistance, I wouldn’t have achieved the remarkable results I did.

In closing, I want to express my sincere gratitude to the entire Peace of Pi team. Your hard work and dedication have made a tremendous difference in my academic journey. I wish you continued success in helping other students achieve their goals. Thank you, Peace of Pi, for everything!

“I no longer feel weighed down by standardized testing. I’m confidently chasing my college dreams, knowing that my improved scores give me a better shot at getting into top-notch institutions”

[read more]

Hey everyone! I’m Andres Molina, and my journey with Peace of Pi started during my junior year at Belen Jesuit Preparatory School. It all began when I took a good look at my PSAT scores from 10th grade and realized I needed to step up my game for the SAT. I didn’t have a specific target score in mind at first, but I was determined to do better than before, especially since I wanted to snag some scholarships and do well academically.

Back then, math was a real challenge for me, especially Algebra II. I struggled to grasp the concepts taught in class and felt lost when tackling SAT math questions. It was tough, and with the pressure to perform, I often felt overwhelmed and unsure about how to improve.

Thankfully, my parents introduced me to Peace of Pi after hearing great things about it from friends. I was a bit skeptical at first, expecting big, impersonal classes, but I was pleasantly surprised. The personalized attention and interactive learning environment were a breath of fresh air compared to the remote learning experiences I had during the pandemic. With smaller class sizes and more engaging interactions with instructors, it felt like a whole new ball game.

Sure, the program required dedication and effort, but the results were totally worth it. By staying on top of my workload and planning my study sessions strategically, I made my way through the curriculum, gaining confidence and improving my skills along the way. The structured approach and the practice tests were game-changers, helping me boost my performance significantly.

And boy, did it pay off! My SAT score shot up from a 560 on the PSAT to an impressive 740—a whopping increase of 180 points. This not only opened up academic opportunities for me but also made me eligible for prestigious scholarships like the Bright Futures scholarship.

Now, as I head into my senior year, I no longer feel weighed down by standardized testing. I’m confidently chasing my college dreams, knowing that my improved scores give me a better shot at getting into top-notch institutions.

Looking back, my time with Peace of Pi was life-changing. It equipped me with the skills and confidence I needed to excel academically. I’m incredibly grateful to the dedicated instructors and supportive community at Peace of Pi for helping me achieve this milestone. As I dive into the next chapter of my academic journey, I carry with me the lessons learned and the unwavering belief that with determination and the right support, anything is possible.

I’d tried studying on my own with sites like Khan Academy, but I couldn’t stay focused without someone guiding me. Even though I was pretty good at math, I struggled with basic stuff like algebra and geometry, especially since I was also taking Calculus.

At first, I was worried about my heavy load of AP courses, but the daily assignments from Peace of Pi Learning were manageable.

“Overall, the prep course not only elevated my scores but also instilled in me the belief that achieving higher goals is within reach with the right mindset and approach.”

Hey guys! My name is Natalie Acebo, and I’m a Junior at St. Brendan High School.As an 11th-grade student, my journey toward this success began when I realized the need for SAT preparation. I knew I had to put in the work to secure a good score, and that’s when I sought the guidance of a prep service.

The decision to enroll in the prep course was influenced by the recommendation of a former student, who was connected through my mom. It seems moms have a way of knowing each other and sharing valuable information. I opted for math prep, believing it would be more manageable to focus on one subject at a time. Given my inclination towards math, it provided me with the motivation I needed.

Reflecting on my initial experiences with SAT practice, I recognized that I lacked the routine of consistent practice, hindering my ability to navigate the test efficiently. I needed to develop a natural flow and muscle memory, which the prep course helped me achieve. The personal connection with the instructor, Cori, made the learning experience more engaging. It wasn’t just about getting answers right or wrong; Cori took the time to ensure everyone understood the concepts.

Comparing the virtual prep course to the COVID-era virtual classes, there were similarities in the online format. However, the prep course felt more personal, with a smaller class size of students who shared similar goals. Commitment and consistency were key lessons from the prep course. While it initially seemed like a daunting amount of work, spreading it out over time proved effective, eliminating the need for procrastination.

The results speak for themselves. My PSAT score of 1220 and a 610 in math transformed into a SAT score of 1410 with a stellar 750 in math after the prep course. This achievement has instilled confidence in me, showing that I can reach the desired scores with dedication and the right guidance. Now, my focus is on improving my reading scores, and I plan to continue with the prep course for that specific area.

Looking ahead, I’m optimistic about the digital format of the SAT, especially for the reading section. The elimination of long passages and the ability to focus on shorter, more digestible content align better with my strengths. Overall, the prep course not only elevated my scores but also instilled in me the belief that achieving higher goals is within reach with the right mindset and approach. I’m grateful for the support, and I look forward to further success in my academic journey.

My name is Matteo Rossi and I’m in 11th grade at Belen Jesuit Preparatory School. Before enrolling in Peace of Pi’s program, I was struggling in Algebra 2 and felt unprepared for the math section of the SAT.

“With my SAT scores now within the competitive range for UF and other Florida schools, I approach the college application process with newfound confidence and optimism!”

Hello everyone, my name is Adriana Vingerhoets and I’m currently a senior at MAST Academy. Peace of Pi Learning has been a huge help for me as I navigated the daunting realm of SAT preparation during my junior and senior years at Terra Environmental. Before enrolling in the program, I found myself stuck in a rut with SAT scores plateauing at a dismal 1280. Despite my best efforts at self-study through platforms like Khan Academy, I struggled to stay organized and motivated without structured guidance.

However, upon hearing glowing reviews from my cousin, whose scores saw a remarkable improvement through Peace of Pi Learning, I knew I had to give it a shot. Witnessing firsthand the impressive results achieved by others convinced me that this was the path to boosting my own scores, which were falling short of the requirements for my dream college, UF.

What I appreciated most about Peace of Pi Learning was the tailored approach to learning. As someone who thrives with hands-on guidance and structured assignments, the program provided the direction I needed to focus my efforts effectively. Even though I had a solid foundation in math, I was lacking the SAT-specific strategies and time management skills I needed to succeed. 

The virtual learning environment exceeded my expectations, offering a supportive and engaging platform for honing my skills. Unlike the ineffective online learning experiences I endured during the Covid pandemic, Peace of Pi Learning provided a structured curriculum with interactive sessions and rigorous assignments that kept me engaged and motivated.

The workload was definitely really hard though, I can’t lie! However, I found that breaking down the workload into manageable chunks and staying disciplined with my study schedule allowed me to tackle the coursework effectively without feeling overwhelmed. The homework assignments, while initially intimidating, proved to be invaluable in reinforcing concepts and honing my test-taking skills. Through consistent practice and regular completion of practice tests, I gradually began to see improvement in my scores and confidence levels.

The results achieved through Peace of Pi Learning have had a profound impact on my college aspirations. With my SAT scores now within the competitive range for UF and other Florida schools, I approach the college application process with newfound confidence and optimism. Additionally, the strategies and skills I acquired through the program have not only benefited me in SAT preparation but have also proven useful in my current AP Statistics course.

Peace of Pi Learning has been instrumental in transforming my academic trajectory and empowering me to reach my full potential. I wholeheartedly recommend this program to any student seeking to excel academically and achieve their college aspirations!

Hi guys, my name is Arabella Gutchess, I attend Miami Country Day and I am currently a senior. I now can confidently say that Peace of Pi Learning has been instrumental in my SAT preparation journey. Before joining their tutoring service, I struggled with the math portion of the SAT, consistently scoring in the 400s and 500s. Despite being a strong math student in school, I found myself facing unfamiliar problems and concepts on the test.

Peace of Pi Learning changed the game for me. Their approach was different from other tutors I had tried before. Instead of just teaching me how to solve specific problems, they provided a comprehensive review of different math topics, exposing me to various types of questions and techniques. This not only helped me understand the material better but also prepared me for the diverse range of problems I encountered on the SAT.

What I appreciated most about Peace of Pi Learning was their dedication to helping students succeed. The virtual group learning environment was engaging and dynamic, thanks to experienced tutors like Cori who kept us motivated and focused. Despite my initial skepticism about online learning, I found the experience to be just as effective as in-person classes.

The workload was intense, but it was worth it. I dedicated myself to the practice sessions, both during the school year and over the summer, and the results were undeniable. My scores improved significantly, ultimately reaching a 730, a vast improvement from where I started.

Thanks to Peace of Pi Learning, I now have a competitive SAT score that opens up opportunities for me in college admissions. Their method of teaching not only helped me ace the test but also instilled in me a deeper understanding of math concepts that will serve me well in my academic journey.

I would highly recommend Peace of Pi Learning to any student willing to put in the effort to improve their SAT scores. The combination of comprehensive instruction, engaging teaching methods, and dedicated tutors makes it a standout choice for SAT preparation. My only regret is not joining sooner!
