Yahoo Review of Kweller Prep
What more can you ask for in SAT and Regents prep? Kweller Prep offers outstanding support for students and parents from one on one tutoring to college applications and financial aid advice. The staff at Kweller Prep is made of dedicated and passionate educators that are fully committed to each student's academic success. Attention to detail is part of what makes Kweller Prep one of the best sources for tutoring and standardized testing preparation. Parents will also find a support network at Kweller Prep. Parent's night and college workshops allow them to discuss questions and concerns in a comfortable and positive environment. Parents leave each workshop with valuable information on how to improve their child's success in college and a new understanding of the education and testing process. Kweller Prep has been the key component to numerous scholarship and award success stories. I recommend Kweller Prep to any parent who has a child who is preparing for standardized testing and the college admissions process-- Elana D
Reviews of Kweller Prep
Frances Kweller is a major role-model for all of her students! I had the pleasure of meeting Frances just months before my junior year was ending. I had been recommended through one of my high school classmates who was also a student of hers at the time. Initially I thought Kweller Prep could not guarantee me getting into any university and therefore, I should put my money into a more credible organization (i.e. Kaplan, Princeton Review, etc).
However, upon meeting Frances, I instantly felt extremely comfortable and was impressed with all that she had to offer! She broke down the entire college process, devoted countless hours to helping me fill out/fulfill the requirements for ALL 18 COLLEGES that I applied to, encouraged me, taught me, and always supported me. I attended Kweller Prep for about 1.5-2 years and learned more there than I did in most of my high school.
This SAT prep challenged me and prepared me for college. Now that I am in my second year of college I have realized that it was worth investing the time and money into this program. Unlike many high school students who I now mentor I felt prepared every time I took the SAT or any exam for that matter. However, the great thing about Kweller Prep is that it provides more than just SAT tutoring. I HIGHLY recommend Kweller Prep to any high school, undergrad, or graduate student who is seeking the assistance, mentorship, and friendship of an educated women who I know will change this world!! Although Frances can not make promises this program and it's testimonials speak for themselves.
I am currently attending Northeastern University on a full scholarship, Double Majoring in Political Science and Economics.

Steve Jobs -- Lessons We Can All Learn
This month the world lost Steve Jobs. The story of this "adopted" American of Middle Eastern descent who dropped out of college only to become a multi-billionaire is a great American success story. I have heard more wisdom about life and business from Steve Jobs since his death than I ever did during his short life. I thought I would share a few Steve Jobs quotes that really appealed to me. Enjoy the below and remember to stay on top of your Money and Power game.
1. "Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma -- which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary."
2. "You can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something -- your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life."
3. "Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle."
4. "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish."

Kweller Prep Reviews on Yahoo
Kweller Prep was recommended to us by my wife's friend. Our son has been attending Kweller Prep for fifteen months. Ms. Kweller is the consummate professional - hardworking, and focused on increasing student's test taking ability and developing their academic potential. Ms. Kweller exemplifies the best tutoring skills of providing hands-on support, patience, enthusiasm, and dedication. Ms. Kweller is knowledgeable regarding SAT test preparations and the college admissions process. Ms. Kweller is available for questions and she returns phone calls promptly. She is a pleasure to work with and we enjoyed the Kweller Prep program.
Our son has benefited greatly by studying with Kweller Prep. He has studied Kweller Prep's SAT exam prep courses, Regents test prep, and math tutorials. He has passed his Regents; his SAT scores have improved tremendously. His time management skills and confidence level have increased.
I would highly recommend Kweller Prep for any student desiring to excel in high school, develop test taking skills, and increase SAT scores. Kweller Prep will increase student's self-confidence and prepare them for future academic challenges.
Sincerely, Amy, James, and Luka
