Why You’ll Succeed With Me

Seattle’s Best Tutor

I attended Seattle’s storied Garfield High School, where my SAT scores (2370—or 1580, on today’s scale), GPA (3.98 / 4), and college essays got me into, Pomona, the University of Chicago, the Penn honors program, and Columbia, where I matriculated in 2006. 

I graduated from Columbia in three years, but found the time to start tutoring part-time in 2007. My college classmates would go on to become New York’s best SAT tutor, a national admissions-essay guru, and top-tier admissions officers—all of whom shared with me invaluable insider knowledge of how the admissions process really works. Since then, my students have gained an average of over 200 points on their SATs and 4 points on their ACTs and submitted exclusively excellent essays and polished applications, attending Berkeley, Yale, and everywhere in between.

Chris is not only an amazing, brilliant tutor, skilled in all academic areas, he also made learning enjoyable and fun for my daughter. He was very knowledgeable in SAT preparation and helped her do her best on the test. After the SAT, he worked diligently with her on her college applications. Before, she was struggling in school, due to her decade-long autoimmune disorder. The application process intimidated her and made her feel like she was hopelessly behind, and the entire family was feeling overwhelmed.

"When my daughter and I first met Chris, he looked us in both in the eye and told us that my daughter was going to get into college. The outcome was, in fact, much better than that. Because of his profound tutoring skills, she was accepted to every school she applied to!

I highly recommend Chris to everyone.”

Chris helped me gain a better appreciation for Calculus and Physics through his engaging tutoring style. As the captain of my crew team in high school, I always had a busy schedule, but Chris was so flexible with scheduling and always available for questions through email, which helped enable my success in classes through senior year. He is an enthusiastic tutor and relatable mentor who makes learning very exciting and easy."

"I loved working with Chris. He really helped me figure out where I wanted to go to school and in a way who I was. I enjoyed our weekly meetings and the support on crafting the perfect college application. He really understands teenagers and I always looked forward to chatting with him. He was a big help with the whole college application process (that I knew nothing about). Honestly, better than therapy 🤣

Mr. Morris-Lent’s expectations were clear and the SAT study exercises he assigned fit right into our daughter’s extremely busy junior-year schedule. She saw her results improving within weeks, and was motivated to study throughout the year.

Our daughter’s SAT score soared by 500 points!

Mr. Morris-Lent recognizes the importance of his role as a "guiding force" in influencing the educational endeavors of his students. He is innately gifted in his ability to connect with his students and their families. Mr. Morris-Lent’s dedication and integrity towards helping students bring the best in themselves to the fore is noteworthy.

We unequivocally recommend Mr. Morris-Lent’s tutoring services to others.”
