About me:
I teach the GMAT on a full-time basis and I have thousands of hours of experience teaching this test. I have become extremely proficient in teaching students of varying skill levels. My affinity for mathematics, love of logic, and passion for teaching make me an effective tutor that can help you reach your goals!
My Approach:
Here’s why working with me is better than enrolling in a course:
1. We can meet at times that are convenient for you
2. My lessons are fully tailored to student needs
3. I will help you build a customized study plan
This is what makes me unique amongst other tutors:
1. I have deliberately chosen standardized test instruction as my profession because I find it extremely rewarding to help my students learn, develop and reach their goals
2. I am committed to the success of my students from the moment they call me to when they gain acceptance to their top-choice program
3. A less experienced tutor may struggle to arrive at the correct answer whereas I will show you the best way to solve each problem
4. I do not waste your time with standard lessons; instead, my lessons are fully customized and are based on your individual weaknesses
5. I make worksheets for students who are struggling with basics concepts – there’s not enough practice material out there for people who need help with the basics
GMAT SPECIFICS:
LSAT: My love for logic and passion for teaching are what make me an excellent LSAT tutor. Many of my past students observed their largest gains in the logic games section of the LSAT particularly since I have an extremely well-structured approach logic games. With regards to arguments, I believe that a successful test taker should have a nuanced approach for each question type and this is precisely what I will help you do.
My Reviews:
I have numerous reviews on my tutoring profile. I have absolutely no control over the content of these reviews and they are completely authentic (as evidenced by the typos). I will happily send you a link. Here are some of my recent reviews:
“You always have the option to study alone, apply to a school alone with the information you collect over the forums and various resources. If you think you save money by doing that, you are wrong... Because as a professional and consultant myself, I recognize that certain skills, experience, and critical information cannot be gained right away. You need inside knowledge. I think Karim has that all. There will be times that you will say “huh, I didn’t know I can do that”. He helped me by avoiding to study to GMAT which in turn saved me months, and possibly countless frustrating hours. He helped me with choosing the right school and making the right decision. He helped me to get accepted. I mean, what else do you need? If you are thinking to hire him for GMAT or LSAT, do it. And hire him more for admission. An intent letter, resume, interview... Get it all, you will save time and money. Worth every penny. Real pro...” - Mehmet
“Working with Karim to prepare for the GMAT was one of the best tutoring experiences I've ever had. Not only does he provide his students with a wide variety of high-quality learning resources, but he also takes the time to understand your unique strengths and challenges in order to create a customized teaching approach and cater to your specific needs. He is clearly spoken, focused, patient, personable, incredibly encouraging, and really seems to know the GMAT exam inside and out. Karim shared many insightful study practices, as well as some great strategies for test day, which helped me achieve a score that was far above my initial goal. Even after my sessions with him had ended, he continued to follow up with me to ensure that I was confident and prepared for the exam, which was above and beyond what I could have asked of him. If you require any amount of help preparing for your exams - great or small - I highly recommend Karim's services.” - Liam
“Karim came prepared to our sessions and was able to help me through my specific problem areas, in both Quant and Verbal. He helped me improve my GMAT score by 100 points in three weeks. He was very helpful in directing me towards the most efficient and best use of the time I had. He was also great at explaining practice problems and concepts that I did not understand. Overall, I enjoyed working with Karim and felt that it was money well spent. Outside of his abilities as a tutor, he is also a really nice guy and cares about the success of his students. We have kept in touch even after I was admitted to a top-ranked business school. I couldn't have done it without him! Thank you, Karim!” - Jason
“Karim is an excellent GMAT tutor. I was struggling with the quantitative part of GMAT and decided it was time to look for a tutor. I searched online and spoke to different tutors, most of which were not very convincing. When I initially spoke on the phone with Karim, he was the only person who took the time to get to know me and understand my motivations for pursuing an MBA, as well as what exactly I was struggling with on the exam. We spoke for almost an hour and a half and not once did he mention price, or try to sell me on any of his services - unless I specifically wanted to talk about it. I was hesitant to sign up at first, but Karim was consistently genuine in his approach. Karim's Undergraduate degree in mathematics coupled with his MBA from Rotman (my dream school), qualify him to give me advice on the admissions process and to teach me the math concepts of the GMAT. I highly recommend Karim to anyone pursuing their MBA.” - Lucas
“I met Karim on almost 3 months ago and I have had an excellent experience. He is always on time, very organized and dedicated to his students' future. He comes in as a tutor but also as a coach working side by side with you towards your goals of MBA admissions. I totally recommend Karim to anyone interested in updating their Math and Reading Comp Skills as well as goal setting their MBA applications. Karim is a definite asset to anyone looking for a tutor.” - Aziz
