​We founded Larson Tutoring & Test Prep in 2016, after realizing that our joint passion for learning and complementary minds made us the perfect team for tutoring & SAT/ACT prep.

 

Abby is the math mind. Growing up, she studied Calculus and tutored classmates for fun. She received her MA with Honors from CU-Boulder, where she taught university courses.  Abby prepares students in Math and Science to achieve the exam scores they need to get into the nation's top schools. She has thousands of teaching hours in SAT & ACT Math/Science, and over 10 years experience designing and refining her custom strategies. She is passionate about learning and feels that cultivating a love for learning in others is the greatest work she can do. On her own time, she is a polymath, recently teaching herself Ancient Greek.

 

Brett excels at all things verbal. He received his MA in Philosophy from Naropa University in Boulder, and went on to teach reading and writing to dyslexic students. Through learning his uniquely effective strategies, motivated students have achieved perfect and near-perfect scores in SAT & ACT Verbal. With his interest in neuroscience and background in contemplative studies, Brett equips his students with the cognitive tools to overcome anxiety and self-limitations, skills to benefit them for a lifetime. He can be found in his free time reading Plato or dreaming up new SAT strategies. ​​​

​In our free time together, we spend long walks debating the inner workings of black holes, or discussing the latest finding in neuroscience. Over dinner, we often use one another as guinea pigs for our newest SAT or ACT strategy. When we do take a step away from teaching, we are likely found at the park with our toddler or in our music studio at the piano.
