About Tom


Bio

I exclusively tutor the GMAT.

I've worked as a professional tutor for over 20 years. In GMAT alone, I've worked with over 1000 students and have more than 4000 classroom hours. I taught the official GMAT class at Boston Consulting Group, and I've taught professionally at Duke, MIT, Harvard, & Wellesley.

I'm an ex-Senior Instructor from Manhattan Prep (exclusively GMAT students) with over 8 years of experience there with thousands of students, and thousands of classroom hours before leaving...

I exclusively tutor the GMAT.

I've worked as a professional tutor for over 20 years. In GMAT alone, I've worked with over 1000 students and have more than 4000 classroom hours. I taught the official GMAT class at Boston Consulting Group, and I've taught professionally at Duke, MIT, Harvard, & Wellesley.

I'm an ex-Senior Instructor from Manhattan Prep (exclusively GMAT students) with over 8 years of experience there with thousands of students, and thousands of classroom hours before leaving to start my own firm. I was always ranked superlatively at the firm on student responses and led several company-wide initiatives on course quality, score improvement. I also wrote content for the official published guidebooks.

I have a deep background in psychometrics (test making), with a particular focus on quantitative algorithms for measuring student ability used in the GMAT test. I studied test-making directly from Larry Rudner (maker of the GMAT algorithm.) I was also the original author of a series of testing algorithms that are based directly off the algorithms used for administering the GMAT.

I'm also a Duke and MIT Sloan graduate with a 99th percentile GMAT score.

Of the more than 20 years of tutoring experience I have, the majority of my direct student time was spent helping students prepare for the GMAT.

I work full-time in the combination of teaching, and building and running education technology businesses.

I was a Senior Instructor at Manhattan Prep for 8 years, and worked with 1000+ students, for over 4,000 hours, and always scored superlatively on all student reviews. I studied psychometrics for many years and was the primary author of a set of adaptive algorithms based directly off the GMAT adaptive algorithm. During my studies, I worked directly with Larry Rudner, the creator of the GMAT algorithms, and am intimately familiar with how the test measures student ability, and how to respond accordingly for maximum performance. I have a 99th percentile GMAT score and have coached more than 100 students to the same.

Exemplary, Professional Tutor

I have been incredibly impressed with the organizational skills and professionalism of Tom. He prepares lessons that are carefully tailored to meet my child's needs, and implements them with great patience and skill. Tom is extremely knowledgeable, and imparts information well. I could not recommend Tom more highly; he has been an amazing help to my child.
