I came to Bobby Tariq after failing the 8th grade SHSAT with a 498. I went to his 9th grade SHSAT course and got accepted into Stuyvesant High School with a 578. He is a great tutor and motivator.

When I took SHSAT for the first time, I didn’t do well on the English section and therefore I didn’t get into any of the specialized high schools. I felt very sad and vulnerable until I found that Bobby-Tariq tutoring center offers 9th grade SHSAT prep. I decided to try one more time for myself. Tariq, my teacher for Shasat class, taught me how to improve my reading skills and helped me to get into Brooklyn Tech with a 579 on the second SHSAT. I cannot express enough how grateful I am for all of Tariq’s advice and support, as getting into Brooklyn Tech was indeed a huge turning point in my academic career. Because I really enjoyed my learning experience at this tutoring center, I began SAT prep class in the winter of my junior year. Bobby, my mentor for the SAT class and CAP program, has given me tremendous tips on achieving high scores on SAT and great resources to prepare for college admission. He is such an inspiring teacher and he always encourage us to try our best. I admire Bobby’s work and value everything he has done for me. At the spring of my junior year, I scored a 1530 on the SAT. During the winter of my senior year, I got accepted into both MIT and Cornell University College of Engineering. I want to say thanks to both Bobby and Tariq. Thank you for being so dedicated and passionate about teaching. I couldn’t have accomplished these without your help along the journey. Lastly, I want to tell all the high schoolers out there that you should definitely come to Bobby-Tariq tutoring center if you want to achieve academic success and be prepared for college!Read More

My daughter studied for the 9th grade SHSAT at Bobby Tariq. We started somewhat late, but Tariq really motivated her to work extra hard, while providing phenomenal resources based on years of experience. She got in to a specialized high school, even though the chance of getting in was so small. My daughter studied for the 9th grade SHSAT at Bobby Tariq.

Bobby managed to simplify the entire 9th and 10th grade math and and English curriculum into 16, 4-hour in-depth lessons. I was able to quickly improve improve my reading, writing, and math skills. By the time we started taking practice tests everyday, I was able to finish the exam at a faster pace and answer more questions correctly. Under Bobby’s guidance I was able to improve my SAT score by approximately 200 points. This Beast program is very intense, but students are often delightfully surprised at how quickly they are able to improve. Bobby is really passionate about his program and he truly cares about his students and wants him to succeed. He puts a lot of time and effort into creating original classwork and homework assignments, and he takes time to explain everything concept throughly. Because of Bobby’s program I was able to get a score 1550 on the actual exam. Bobby’s program is truly unique and it is well worth the price. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is serious about improving his or her SAT score. Thank you to Bobby and everyone else in this program for helping me reach my goal of getting a high SAT score! I am one step closer to attending my dream school, and I feel more prepared for college.Read More

Tariq is unlike any other teacher I’ve ever had before. He will push u to your maximum and help you see your full potential. Every day, we as students are being provided with material to help us succeed. We would apply Tariq’s tips and techniques to help us improve on our skills. I have seen growth in myself and I can feel myself learning and improving. The stuff that once looked hard and impossible we’re starting to become easier and easier day by day. Once you feel growth, you will be motivated and determined to push through the struggles. Everyday, I have felt more and more passionate and I have built confidence through this course. Tariq’s extreme class not only teaches you SHSAT, but it also teaches you discipline. This course shows you what sacrifice and effort is, and teaches you to work hard for what you want in life. Overall Tariq’s SHSAT program is LIFE CHANGING. Tariq can guide you to success, but he can not achieve it for you!Read More

I learnt a lot of tips for doing the test and we have so much work to do. During the summer, each week we would have a test and see if you have improved. This is really useful and we would compete with each other to see who makes the most effort. I am sure this is one of the best tutoring centers in New York.Read More

He assigned us very rigorous material and challenged us everyday. In just a short amount of time, I improved a lot all thanks to Tariq. The first time I took the SHSAT I got a 492 and missed Brooklyn Tech by one point and I lost all hope. However, after finding about Bobby-Tariq, I replenished all my hope and gave it another shot. I worked very hard and put a lot of effort this time and Tariq devoted a lot of time on the 9th graders and I couldn’t have done it without him! I definitely recommend this tutoring center.Read More

I had scored a 450 on the 8th grade exam and came to Bobby’s in an attempt to try again but aim high and so far I am doing good getting only 6-7 questions wrong out of the all 114 questions just from 4 weeks of classes on the practice test. The tutoring is intense by they give you a lot of HW to do for the next day for ex. 60 to even 200 questions but it is well worth it because it can help you boost your score up. Tariq is actually a good tutor and pushes you to your highest potential and teaches you some good strategies to achieve high scores on the SHSAT. If your not willing to put in the work then this is not the place for you but I recommend it because it is your BEST chance of getting in a good high school ( the specialized high schools). I usually stay for 8 hours but it is well worth my time and the strategies I learned actually helped me out so if you ever need a tutor this is the place to go and it is well worth it.Read More

I joined in this tutoring center in June after failing the 8th grade SHSAT with a score of 472. I ended up going to Forest Hills High school, which I, nor my parents, was not satisfied with. In hopes of getting to a better school-a SPECIALIZED school- I came here as a 9th grade student. As I walked in on the first day, I was thinking about my classmates in 8th grade who've came here and got into a specialized school. I would always wonder how they did it. Then, I got my answer. Being taught by Mr. Tariq opened my mind to more concepts in Math and English. The intensity of the classwork and homework allowed me and other students to thoroughly review and go over what was taught by Mr. Tariq and the tutors. The program is rigorous and the hours you stay is long, but truly worth the effort. As of now, my SHSAT score has risen to a 560. I am proud and confident to say that going to Bobby-Tariq Tutoring Center has taught me to work not only harder, but smarter.Read More

As a Bengali-American, I have been to plenty or tutorials, at least 20+, and it is an understatement to say that Bobby's hasn't been my favorite. I got into Stuyvesant high school by taking the 9th grade supplementary SHSAT, thanks to Tariq. After such amazing results, I came back for the SAT program, and was appalled by Bobby, the main SAT instructor. I understood the content and raised my score 400 points withing only two months of the summer program. He helped me build confidence, understand complex formulas, pushed me to my fullest potential, and motivated me to always achieve. Bobby's hard work and dedication to the highest quality education standards are just some reasons why I am where I am today.Read More

When i got my results in 8th grade knowing that i wasn't going to a specialized high school, I was a very broken person. Ever since march 2016 my goal until was to attend a specialized high school, however, i was too distraught to study by myself as it didn't work the first time. I was also scared because i knew that the 9th grade supplementary shsat was more difficult and A LOT more competitive and that this task would not easy. 2 days after i got my results i was looking for tutoring places that would offer 9th grade prep. All of them were the same and useless. All they did was mix the 8th and 9th graders and teach them the same things. However, when i found bobby-tariq, I was happy that they had a separate intensive program for the 9th grade shsat. When I went to talk to tariq, he motivated me to take the test again and he helped put me in the right mindset for the test. (I didn't actually enroll until September). Ever since then i've seen myself improve so much. Tariq showed me unique ways to approach the questions and gave me (and the other students) sat math and reading. Tariq taught us harder material because the concepts on the SAT's and the 9th grade SHSAT are very similar, except the SAT questions are harder, and the SHSAT wouldn't be that challenging. On my first practice test I scored a 400. Then i worked hard and improved rapidly over the span of 2 months. During these 2 months i probably learned more than I ever had. But then, my math started to decrease. Tariq, being the amazing teacher he is, noticed immediately and put me with a separate tutor. Then my math got a lot better. (my english also). Then, before i knew it, it was the day before the SHSAT. On that day, i scored a 521 on my practice test. A 521 is a 121 point improvement from my first practice test score and a 149 point improvement from my original 8th grade SHSAT score. (i didn't do so well the first time). I achieved all of this, in a whole 2 months (around 40 classes). I strongly suggest that you invest in this tutoring center. You will not regret it! Currently, I am anticipating my results for the test as well as the other students. I will edit this post with my results ASAP (Good or Bad). Thank you for everything BTLC!Read More

I was able to get to my specialized high school, Brooklyn Tech with a score of 500! BTLC assisted me in gaining the education I deserve in a fun learning environment. Tariq, a illustrious mentor, taught me easy math tricks that will help me in the future in math courses. Before I came to BTLC, I kept making silly mistakes, I barely even knew anything for 7th and 8th grade Math, ELA and I struggled in understanding each subjects concepts for 7th and 8th grade. When I came to BTLC, I started to learn the basics of Math and English and it became easier. When things started to get complicated I struggled so much, but Tariq, my mentor, motivated me to try my hardest and not to easily give up. He showed me that if you give your hardest efforts in order to overcome obstacles. I took his word with sincerity and I started to understand these new concepts and it became familiar with me. I was able to do above grade level works, which was the SH-SAT. As I first started the SH-SAT the concepts in Math was way different than the math I did in 7th grade. The Ela in SH-SAT had complicated passages with very unfamiliar vocabulary words. I felt like I was no match for this monstrous test, but I didn't give up. Tariq motivational words stuck to my mind, try the best you can, don't give up with ease, fight back ! With that in mind, I prepared through a crucial 10 months of practice with Tariq in order to overcome the SH-SAT test. From hard-work and sheer persistence, Tariq taught all what I needed to know about the SH-SAT. He had fixed the silly mistakes I used to make and I am able to understand concepts. Not only did he prepare me for the SH-SAT, he taught me concepts or lessons that will appear in the 8th grade and the 9th grade ! I am very pleased with the score I achieve, and I would like to thank Bobby Tariq Learning Center for getting me so far in both school and life !Read More
