"Livius Prep has been an incredible partner for our district. They have supported us with the SAT, ACT, personalized learning, tutoring, scholarship bootcamps, as well as 1:1 support on some occasions. Their comprehensive feedback has helped our students measure themselves against students across the nation. Their staff members are personable and they care about our students. I am happy to be a partner with Livius Prep and I 100% recommend the Livius programs to other districts."

"Best tutoring service we've experienced in the Greater Boston area. Very responsive staff and excellent communication with parents regarding tutoring sessions, scheduling, planning. Excellent tutors and lots of flexibility. For us, they stepped into a difficult, time-constrained situation and made everything work."

"A big thank you to Livius Prep for partnering with Everett High School. As the student representative, my experience with Livius gave us new opportunities and opened doors for us with the information the staff has displayed. I appreciate the passion and wisdom that was given out. Everything exceeded my expectations - the curriculum, the training. It’s obvious the staff at Livius Prep take it seriously."

"I attended ACT prep here after completing a comparison of SAT vs ACT. Livius’s classes provided me with the tools to increase my score as well as select the test that would best suit me. Livius also provided a practice test under exam style conditions. I felt prepared for my ACT and my scores showed wonderful results. Thanks to Livius’s instruction my scores granted me admittance to Harvard College. I highly recommend Livius to all students."

"My daughter had such a good experience with the Livius SAT prep, that she decided it might be good to also have another point of view on the entire college application process. Livius then matched her with Jodi, an extraordinary college counselor who was able to additionally help my daughter make the most of the more qualitative aspects of her college application. My daughter was grateful to be accepted to her top choices: Harvard and NYU. My daughter’s work with Livius was a very helpful component of all that she did to make compelling cases for her candidacy at the schools she was most interested in."
