Sage was a phenomenal tutor over the course of six weeks as I prepared to take the GMAT. He prepared efficient lessons that really focused on the key strategies needed to learn how to approach the problems on the exam quickly and accurately. He also varied how he approached the same problems to ensure each strategy clicked with students who might have different perspectives on a particular question. I also appreciated that he made sure to not move on to another concept until he was sure I had a strong grasp of the current lesson. Furthermore, he always invited questions which made me feel comfortable while I was learning. Beyond our specific tutoring sessions, Sage always made himself available via email which I found to be tremendously valuable. After I took and reviewed practice tests on my own time, I sometimes asked Sage questions via email about solutions I didn't quite understand, and he always responded promptly. By the end of our tutoring engagement, I felt fully prepared to take the exam and in the end, was thrilled with my score of 750. I was very grateful for all the strategies and content I learned from Sage, and also his passion for my learning.

I came to Sage as an engineer fresh out of undergrad who wanted to get in the 700s (highest I had scored to that point was 680), and left Sage with a fantastic GMAT score (760).
First of all, I actually enjoyed going to my GMAT prep class. Insane, I know, but Sage made it an enjoyable, welcoming place to learn and collaborate with my peers. He didn't take himself too seriously, but still was able to drive home critical pieces of information. Finally, he took the time to really get to know everyone in my class, down to knowing fun facts about each person. I cannot recommend him enough as a person, and that is before anything to do with his effectiveness as a tutor.
He was well-versed in both the verbal and math sections (I needed more help on the former, some needed more help on the latter), and was able to hop into breakout rooms if anything ever got confusing. In this era of Zoom classes, he used annotations seamlessly as well. Don't worry about useless busy work either, he picks relevant problems / topics to ensure everyone does their best.
In short, I cannot recommend Sage enough for any GMAT services - great guy and great tutor!!
