I’ve been tutoring math for almost 19 years.  Born and raised in New York, I graduated from the Villanova University School of Business with a BS in Accounting.  I worked for several years in New York City in the Financial Services Industry and earned my CPA (licensed in the state of VA) in 1997.  After moving to Florida, I was a Controller at the PGA Tour until 1999.  I passed the required exams to become a certified math teacher in 2007.  I’ve had the pleasure of working with hundreds of students and I'm proud that they’ve gone on to attend excellent colleges and grad schools.

MAKING AN INVESTMENT IN YOUR FUTURE

SAT

The SAT has two math sections.  One non-calculator section (25 mins) and one calculator section (55 mins).  The exam focuses on four main areas of math:  Heart of Algebra, Problem Solving and Data Analysis, Passport to Advanced Math, and Additional Topics in Math.  Between the two sections, there are a total of 45 multiple choice questions and 13 grid-ins. 

*NEW SAT EXAM COMING IN 2024!

  • The SAT exam will be administered electronically on a personal device or a school-issued device
  • The digital PSAT 8/9, PSAT 10, and PSAT/NMSQT will start in Fall 2023. 
  • The digital SAT will be administered in Spring 2024
  • The exam will be scored on the same scale of 1600.
  • The exam will be an adaptive style (see www.computeradaptivetesting.com) for more info
  • Calculators will be allowed for the entire math section
  • See www.sat.org/digital for more info


ACT

The ACT Math section is a 60 minute section with 60 questions.  An approved calculator may be used.  Math topics include a broad range of topics from pre-algebra, elementary algebra, intermediate algebra, trigonometry, plane geometry, and coordinate geometry.  Questions have a much more straightforward approach to math.  All 60 questions are multiple choice. Note: New computer-based section retesting started  September 2020. Restrictions apply.

What about the PSAT / NMSQT?

Juniors in high school:   Not only does the Preliminary SAT / National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test help you prepare for the SAT, but you can also possibly earn National Recognition for your score on the PSAT /NMSQT.  It is administered in October and I recommend starting prep for this exam during the summer before junior year. 

GRE Quant

The GRE Quantitative Reasoning section tests your understanding and interpretation of arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis.  There are 4 main question types:  multiple choice (with one answer choice), multiple choice (with one or more answer choices), quantitative comparisons, and numeric entry.

GMAT Quant

The GMAT Quantitative  section tests your problem solving and data sufficiency skills in arithmetic, algebra, and geometry.  Questions will be in multiple choice form.  Note that the GMAT Quant section utilizes CAT (Computer Adaptive Testing).  This means that correct or incorrect answers will determine future questions.

When should I start preparing?

My comprehensive course is typically taught within a 5-7 week period before the SAT and ACT exams.  GRE and GMAT preparing should begin approximately 3 months before the exam.  My coaching is comprised of 60 or 90 minute sessions that sufficiently cover critical math topics, organizational skills, and test-taking strategies.  

How many sessions do I need?

Each and every student is different.  I recommend at least 10-20 hours for a complete review.  I offer my concierge service starting with 10 sessions.

One-On-One Private Coaching

I work with students one-on-one via video conferencing throughout the United States.  I provide a diagnostic exam that helps me cater my prep just to you.  Different exams require a different way of thinking.  I teach awareness and mastery of strategies specific to each exam and stay up to date with the ever-changing exam structures.

What is the SAT QAS and ACT TIR?

The College Board offers the Question and Answer Service in the US in March, May and October.  It includes a copy of the test you took as well as the correct answers and scoring information.   The ACT Test Information Release is available for the April, June and December exams in the US. The QAS and TIR can be ordered during registration or up to 5 months (SAT) and 3 months (ACT) after the exam.

TESTIMONIALS

  

I’ve never been good at math so when it was time to do well on the SATs I was so anxious. But Mrs. Quintal was extremely patient with my specific learning curve. Her teaching technique was perfect because it allowed me to recognize what I was missing easily and I was quickly able to pick up the SAT format. She was able to increase my SAT score by 100 points in less than 3 months!

-Ponte Vedra High School, FL


I’ve had the best learning experience with Mrs. Quintal. Lessons that would’ve taken me hours to learn on my own I was able to master within minutes with her. She’s the BEST math teacher I’ve ever had.

Mrs. Q's math concierge service is the best thing we ever did.  Her personalized approach, daily questions, weekly progress reports, and overall availability helped our daughter more than any other tutor she's ever had (And she's had a lot of tutors!).  As a parent, it was a relief to know that Eileen was always there and able to focus on exactly what our daughter needed.  She increased her ACT math score by 7 points and was able to get into the college of her dreams.  Thank you, Mrs Q!

I wish we had known about Mrs. Quintal before spending thousands of dollars on tutors and math prep services.  We finally found the key to success! Her math concierge service is THE BEST.

Eileen is such an amazing tutor! I needed to significantly improve my ACT score in math and science, two areas I seriously dislike. She was very patient with me and started rebuilding my foundational skills allowing me to finally understand why I was constantly getting certain questions wrong. She is a master at teaching math multiple ways, making it easier to learn. Questions that once intimidated me were dismantled and done in well under a minute. ACT day came and I wasn’t trembling, I was ready. My ACT math and science score improved by 5 points, on a scale of 36, that’s huge. Another benefit that I didn’t realize was that I became more organized and predictive in my learning, which is something that I now use at Boston College. Without Eileen I would not have gotten into my number one college pick and I am can’t thank her enough. I highly recommend Eileen as a tutor for math and science and suggest that you incorporate her strategies in class as well as on the ACT. There is no doubt that her strategizing will get you an increase in your score as well as make you better organized and confident.

Eileen was outstanding to work with.  She was supportive and took a genuine interest in my performance.  Eileen developed a well thought out plan to enable me to be successful on the SAT.  She was able to zero in on the areas I needed the most help with, share important test taking strategies and help me to appropriately manage my time.  She does a great job of making things simple and easy to understand. Meeting virtually with Eileen twice a week for five weeks, I was able to dramatically improve my score by 140 points to a near perfect score. Thanks Eileen!

Working with Mrs. Quintal to improve my SAT and ACT math and ACT science scores was the best decision I could’ve made. I had taken each test on my own and was struggling in both math sections. I learned so many tips and tricks as well as the concepts tested on each standardized test in such a short amount of time. I always looked forward to our sessions as I learned so much and she made math easy which in turn made it fun. I’m so grateful to have had her help and recommend her to anyone seeking SAT and ACT math and ACT science tutoring. My SAT score improved 80 points and my ACT science score improved 10 points. Her tutoring helped me get my scores where I wanted them to be. She’s the best!!

-Ponte Vedra High School Class of 2021


It is because of Mrs. Quintal's coaching that I am able to attend the school that I see as a perfect fit for me.  I was able to increase my SAT score 70 points from a 650 to a 720. Thank you so much!

-Ponte Vedra, FL


Eileen is amazing! After the first child went out of state we realized if the second child went out of state we needed to try and get academic money.  We used Eileen and our child improved her testing score and received three academic scholarships for her out of state college.

The investment and time was well worth it and would do it again! Mrs. Quintal has a true gift of making math easy.  I had taken both the ACT and the SAT several times and was having trouble getting my score up.  She was able to help me identify key problem areas as well as help me focus on which test was best for me. Her patience as well as test taking strategies were key to my success.  I am proud to say that I was able to increase my SAT score by 70 points and attend the college of my dreams!

Ms. Quintal is one of the best tutors anybody could ask for! She is unbelievably caring and empathetic with her students; she is always perceptive of their wants and needs, making sure they’re comfortable and checking in with them before tests to ensure their mindset is prepared to the fullest extent. Beyond this, she is a bonafide genius. Not only does she create complicated, brilliant math problems, but she masterfully dissects them and spells them out for those of us who aren’t as mathematically inclined. One is never left feeling dumb or confused by their mistakes, only empowered by her skillful explanations and their newfound knowledge. To ensure success in standardized testing, using Ms. Quintal is a no-brainer!
