Study Dorm

I have not touched math for over 10 years so it was nice for me to have a math tutor for the GRE, and I think Shahin knows her stuff and is a good teacher when you have her attention.
With that being said, I am sad to say that my experience has not been the very best. It was hard for us to set up/​and confirm appointments because I work and she was busy (she had a baby a couple months ago, so I think that triggered a lot of it). But I had to do 6 hours with her because she said that was the minimum and we broke these up into a couple of sessions.
I also live in Houston so it was a trek getting out there to Stafford, so I usually give myself an hour before our sessions to arrive early and prepare. Among these times, I don’t think there was one time where she was on time, nevertheless early. I would soon learn to bring something to do in the parking lot or do her homework while waiting.
During our sessions her phone would constantly be on, and she would be texting and taking up phone calls which was a bit distracting for me (given, I believe most were from her parents regarding her baby). And there were times where I noticed she was setting up future tutorials which made me wonder why she was not as quick to respond to my requests.
There were also issues for me where before my session ends, kids would be coming in to ask her questions, asking her about this and that, sharpening their pencils in the machine, etc. so our session would end early, or I was eager to get of there and let her deal with her incoming students.
I have since then taken Kaplan and compared the two styles regarding GRE math; Shahin will teach you the quickest method to solve algebraically, where Kaplan teaches you that not all problems need to be fully solved, but to assess the problem and try to come up with an answer. I preferred the latter (Kaplan), but in all honestly I think that’s just a personal preference.

Sha is a great math tutor! My daughter has gone through a couple of math tutors recently but I noticed that she responds and understands Sha very well compared to the previous ones. The rates are affordable and the location is convenient. Sha is quick to pick up on the strengths and weaknesses of her students and can help them in areas they are lacking. I highly recommend Study Dorm Tutoring for all your tutoring needs.

Shah in is a great! Couldn’t ask for a better tutor. She has helped my son bring his grades up and she is very affordable. I highly recommend her. Thanks so much!!!

If you are looking for a great GMAT tutor in Houston, look no further. I highly recommend Study Dorm’s GMAT test Prep course. Shahin is a fantastic tutor and her techniques and shortcuts for GMAT quant problem types are very useful and awesome. I was impressed with their great material, great price and great teaching quality. Shahin was very good at recognizing my weak areas and making suggestions about what to study in order to improve. She also points out where I am improving so that I see my progress. She has the ability to guide students so that they could work through and tackle tough concepts/​questions. Besides the one-​on-​one tutoring session, Sha also gave me homework (Yah Felt like I was back in school) which was really helpful and helped me do well on the GMAT. With her help I was able to get a significant increase in my GMAT Score! Check her out!

Love the way Shahin taught my children. She was very good at explaining the theory of math. Both my children understand math so much better now. They are enrolling in a math tournament this year. I am so proud of them all because of STUDY DORM.
THANKS!!!

Could not have asked for a better math tutor. Study Dorm helped me with my university level MATH course and in only a few sessions my grades have gone up tremendously. Sha is very knowledgeable and knows her stuff. I like the fact that somebody will sit down and help you step by step with your homework and prepare you for the test. Session was one-​on-​one and I’m glad I found her. Highly recommended Math tutor!

Sha at Study Dorm helped me get into my first choice school (University of Texas) for my masters in Engineering Management. I went to Study Dorm to get help on GMAT Math. They have the best tutors in Houston. Study Dorm had no problem fitting into my busy schedule, as I worked full time while studying. I was able to get in my study sessions in late evenings on weekdays and anytime on weekends without any inconvenience. Sha is very professional, and really taught me new techniques to use on the exam, which resulted in a GMAT score that I was very satisfied in. I would definitely recommend them. Thank you Study Dorm!

Excellent tutor. She knows her material and is very patient. I definitely recommend her for anyone who is looking to take GMAT, GRE, any math. She’s the girl for it!
