I cannot say enough good things about SoFlo tutoring. They were so much more targeted and helpful for ACT prep than the official ACT prep course that my son took. When he did not gel with his first SoFlo tutor, they immediately switched him to one with whom he worked extremely well. He was able to raise his ACT score 5 points between the July and September tests, and I think that this was in large part due to the exceptional work that his tutor Kai did with him over five weeks to target his practice and prepare him to do his best on the test.

We have been extremely pleased with SoFlo tutors so far. They worked with us to find a tutor who would be the best match for my daughter, given her learning style and goals. She has learned effective strategies to maximize her ACT score, which has improved significantly in a matter of a few weeks! After considering other tutoring options, we are happy we chose SoFlo!

This is the exact SAT prep which I wanted for my twin daughters! They only spend their time reviewing what they need to work on! The girls love the individualized instruction tailored to their specific areas of need. Highly recommend!

My son was tutored for a bit over 2 months before taking the SAT in 11th grade. He needed assistance with math.
This was a worthwhile experience, as my son felt that he was absolutely more prepared for the test.
The price per hour is more than fair and incremental hour billing is an outstanding option.
I highly recommend SoFlo for your tutoring needs.

My daughter had a terrific tutor from SoFlo tutors. My daughter needed a tutor for college statstics. She worked with the SoFlo tutor who is a Harvard student and my daughter's test scores went from in the 70s to in the 90s.

I am so happy we found SoFlo SAT tutoring! We researched in great depth to find the best option for our son and SoFlo does not disappoint. We were sent a diagnostic test so that they know exactly which areas need improvement. Kenneth, my sons’s tutor is absolutely wonderful. Each week he goes over important information and assigns homework. He makes sure to focus on information my son doesn’t fully understand. He is always so patient and kind, which helps make learning a joy. My son throughly enjoys his weekly sessions with Kenneth and is always so excited when he has learned a new concept. Kenneth and the administrative team at SoFlo are excellent with communication and letting me know how everything is going.

My son is working on meeting his reading graduation requirement on the ACT and/or SAT. He has been tutoring for 3 weeks and seems to really like his tutor Kenneth. Test is still a few weeks away but he is feeling extremely confident and that is truly a plus. We cannot wait to see his test scores. Thank you Kenneth for all your help so far!

SoFlo Tutoring is also ideal for already high scoring students. Before I began tutoring, my best SAT score on a practice test was a 1450, but after tutoring, my scored increased by over 100 points to a 1560 on the actual SAT. My tutor, Jack, was very knowledgeable, and he gave me a lot of good advice, especially on the reading section of the test. Ultimately, I am very glad that I found SoFlo Tutoring and very thankful for their help in boosting my score into the 1500s range.

This is the first review I have ever written on Google, and I'm happy to be doing it for SoFlo tutors. As a student working to improve my SAT score and begin applying to college, I have received the best possible resources and services here. My tutor, Manuela Penenory, has been so amazing and supportive and helped me to improve my score by 100+ points. She is so kind and always willing to discuss and answer any questions I have about the SAT, college applications, extracurricular involvement, etc. Christina Meyer has also been so supportive and helpful with providing resources for me as a lower-income student. I am so grateful that she has taken the time out of her day to schedule calls with me to discuss college applications and resources I need to improve. Both of them are so so amazing, and I am so happy that I found SoFlo. :)

SoFlo was an ideal fit for our son. Adam and his team quickly assessed PSAT and PreACT performance and developed a plan focused on the ACT. Hunter is a fantastic tutor and created an immediate connection; his weekly online sessions were highly efficient and effective, keying on specifics strategies while instilling confidence and allowing more time for practice exams. Six weeks after the first conversation with SoFlo, our son scored a 34 on the ACT. Exceptional tutoring at an exceptional value! Thanks Adam & Hunter!

Aakash Margam is the tutor you want, he explains everything almost perfectly and will have you shake your head as he tells you the answer. He doesn't use tough speech so it's really easy to understand him and he is also very friendly and open-minded. The tutor you want is Aakash Margam.

I look at my journey to pass the bar as a cumulative process. Each study day and bar exam attempt was a step closer to victory. I took the bar exam 4 times before I was victorious. Choosing SoFlo SAT Tutoring was an important step toward my victory.

I would still be languishing in pre-passing purgatory. They created a customized study strategy that addressed my specific needs. The one-on-one meetings and reviews of my essays proved enormously helpful. Slowly but surely and I corrected the flaws in my writing and more importantly, changed my approach to essay writing.

I don't typically write recommendations because it is perception and every child is different….but I am one privileged parent to have found SoFlo Tutoring for our son, a Junior in high school...he has had a great learning experience. The tutors at SoFlo are highly qualified in the subjects they teach and are extremely skilled in conducting the classes, via Zoom for us. Financially affordable and in-line with other tutors. Christian Chase is an excellent SAT/ACT tutor and has superb “Math” and “English” skills which I have already seen a cross over into his school work. Adam was able to match our son up with Christian who is an excellent tutor…he is responsive, via text, email or phone. SoFlo is willing to go above and beyond to set up personalized tutoring, and Christian has been very flexible with our schedule which I appreciate! I received a call from my son's english teacher suggesting we move him to AP English, he is already dual enrolled and taking other AP classes...Thank you SoFlo

I found SoFlo SAT Tutoring online and they left a strong impression. I had searched and spoken with many test prep companies but they were the best. They answered all my messages and respond to my calls very promptly. Also there were no contracts so I gave them a shot even though I had not heard of the company before.
The founder Adam was knowledgeable about SAT prep and friendly on our initial phone call and getting started was easy, just filling out a simple form. They had my son Greg take a diagnostic test to gauge his initial strengths and weaknesses. From the diagnostic we had a very strategic approach to prep and there were clear goals and direction.
From there a polite young tutor reached out and began scheduling test prep sessions. My son is always very busy because he is on the soccer team, but our tutor Charlie was very flexible and scheduled sessions at my son's convenience. We met with Charlie once a week for two hours over the course of about 3 months. I was able to track my son's progress because he was always doing SAT practice tests for homework. His score was steadily climbing from week to week, and we were confident that he was going to improve his SAT score.
After taking the SAT we decided to pause sessions thinking that we should wait until we see how Greg did on his test. Adam completely understood and did not pressure us to continue sessions. When the scores came out Greg improved over 200 points and scored a 1430 on the SAT. Tutoring is the best money I've ever spend and every step of the way SoFlo has been great to work with. I'm so appreciative!

SoFlo SAT Tutors got me into the garnet and gold for the next four years. With their help my ACT score went up to a 29 and I got the full bright futures scholarship.

Adam Shlomi was an exceptional tutor and an expert when it comes to the SAT and ACT. I had visited college experts before and the general classroom approach did not improve the specific subjects I needed help with. Adam listened to all my needs and immediately formulated a plan to help me strengthen my performance in the reading section. I met with Adam once a week for 3 months and he helped me improve my score by 120 points. I can’t thank him enough!

The absolute best SAT tutor in Fort Lauderdale and Plantation. SoFlo Tutors boosted my sons ACT score by 7 points. They were super patient and thorough always making sure my son understood the concepts. They also fit with my schedule and tutored my son at our at house so I didn't have to drive him to a test prep place. A great experience for college test prep, SAT tutoring, ACT tutoring, and college admissions advice. SoFlo SAT tutors are unbelievably good and I recommend them to everyone, worth every last penny!!!
