“We will be forever thankful that fate had us cross paths with Peter Arvantely. His never-ending patience and confidence-inspiring approach to learning were a huge part of our daughter’s academic success in high school and helped her fulfill her dream of living in New York City while graduating from NYU. Now living and working in London, she still fondly remembers her study sessions! “

“We appreciate Peter’s tutoring so much that we have sent not one, not two but all three of our teenagers to him! He has helped them all with both SAT tutoring and more general help with high school, including physics, chemistry, and Latin. His help has been particularly valuable during the interruption to school caused by the pandemic. I can’t say enough about the difference he has made for our kids, pushing them to levels far above our expectations. He has a nice demeanor and a genuine enthusiasm for learning that the kids really like. And there seems to be no subject or topic he can’t handle.”

“Peter tutored our daughter in geometry, algebra, pre-calculus, physics, and writing during high school. Later, during college, our daughter worked with Peter on statistics. The critical thinking skills she developed helped her become a member of the Writers Guild of America after college.”
– Sandy, San Francisco CA

“Peter the tutor has been an amazing resource for our boys from middle school through high school. He has the amazing ability to break down complex subjects into easy to understand parts and makes sure they can practice and apply the knowledge by putting all the parts together. Peter has been a great help for Latin, English, complex Math/ Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, SAT boot camps and refreshers. Peter always finds time in his schedule for us even often in a tutoring emergency! Thanks, Peter- you have helped through some complex stuff over the years- always with a smile and patience! We recommend you to all our friends!”

“I was a student of Peter Arvantely in my senior year of high school, 2001. I was already struggling with precalculus when my math teacher took an extended leave for health reasons. In stepped Mr. Arvantely and added spice to our humdrum class for two months. He brought his charisma for the subject and engaged with the students in a way that made the whole class excel. That quarter I raised my grade D+ to a B+ and learned valuable life lessons I’ve carried into my career as a Geologist and Engineer. I learned that the content, the material, is never insurmountable; a student like me can learn the hardest subject when it’s taught well, and with enthusiasm. I also learned not to give up when something seems harder than what I think I’m capable of. I gained a new perspective on academics that year and propelled myself into a field I had never imagined of before.”

“Arjun has been learning advanced math concepts with Peter since 8th grade and says, “Learning with Mr. Arvantely is so much fun, and I think he knows everything about everything!” He was well equipped to take the Geometry placement test, which required strong proof writing skills, and placed out of the required class in high school. He also enjoyed learning introductory Greek and Latin this summer, saying ‘Mr. Arvantley helped me create building blocks and make connections so it all clicks together.” Thanks Peter!”
