The feeling that I can change everything. Masha is a vivid example of how you can, with your own strength and desire, you can build the life you dreamed of. Masha has vast experience in the field of education. She’s a truly international educator who proves this not only through her students’ success but also through her own numerous achievements.

Guys, I was also afraid at first, but I was really happy with the result)

I started studying with Maria in September, and within just two weeks I understood how the American education system works, how those essays are written and the main documents are filled out.

We also wrote what I think was a wonderful essay in which Masha managed to capture everything down to the smallest detail. The main thing is to just write a couple of pages from the heart - everything that’s in your head. It can be anything, your interests, values, etc. That way it’ll be much easier for you to work together later. I also had the feeling that my thoughts and notes were nothing special. But when I read the final version of the essay, I was amazed) And what really makes Masha different from other teachers is that she truly cares about her students. When I recently went to take one of the exams, I got the wrong address and ran around Moscow in search of the right one. It was 7 a.m. - not the best time to call) But Masha answered and stayed on the phone until I found the place.

I hope this review will help someone make the right decision. I took a chance once and didn't regret it)

I studied with Masha for 1.5 years. I got into the university of my dreams and will be leaving for the USA in 2 months. She's a wonderful tutor!
I prepared for the SAT and TOEFL with Masha. She explains everything clearly and in detail, while also pointing out nuances I probably wouldn't have noticed if I had prepared on my own. Along with the classes, my overall English level — especially my speaking — improved significantly. Before that, I could hardly speak at all, but Masha helped me overcome that barrier. She also gave me invaluable help with my application documents and choosing a university. The lessons were always held in a pleasant and friendly atmosphere, which made learning even easier and more effective.

I got into my dream university — Stanford, and I am very grateful to Masha for this!

Masha is a wonderful strategist, an excellent teacher, and an incredibly motivating person. All these talents are essential for anyone who wants to get into a top university in the USA.

First of all, Masha has a deep understanding of the U.S. education system — it’s extremely complex and completely different from the Russian one. Being able to discuss all my questions with her saved me a lot of time and energy for more important tasks, like preparing for the GRE and writing essays. It also mattered a lot that Masha had gone through the process herself and successfully got into top U.S. universities. We were on the same wavelength — she understood exactly what I was worried about, what to focus on, what to skip, what admissions committees really value, which resources are most useful, and how to manage my time effectively.

Secondly, Masha knows how to write texts that are clear, well-structured, and powerful — both for exams and personal statements. I owe my 82% score on the GRE (Verbal and Analytical Writing) and 29/30 on the TOEFL (Writing) to her, as well as my successful personal statements that, I believe, opened the doors to several top universities (in addition to Stanford, I was accepted to Columbia University, Duke University, and New York University). Masha has a real talent for turning your achievements into a short, compelling story that makes the admissions committee remember you — and realize they want you at their university.

Third, Masha helps you build a real admission strategy — understanding how to present yourself in essays and your resume, how to work with the people writing your recommendation letters, and how to fit everything into the limited time you have (which never seems to be enough).

Finally — and for me, this was probably the most important part — Masha is always full of energy, optimism, and determination. She truly believes that you can achieve any goal. At the beginning of our work together, I didn’t even think I could get into top-20 universities, let alone the top-5. I still remember asking Masha, whether I had any real chance of getting into one of the top universities. Doubts came up many times during the process, but after every meeting with Masha, I left full of energy and completely ready for the next GRE sessions, essay writing, and communication with admissions committees.

Thank you so much for every lesson — it was a real pleasure to study! I couldn’t believe it was possible to prepare for the SAT in just a few months, but once I saw how well the lessons were organized, I immediately changed my mind.
I recommend Masha to everyone — she will help you master the language and prepare for exams in a way that gives you a real chance to study at one of the world’s top universities. After the very first lesson, anyone will start to love the subject — I guarantee it!

Maria is an excellent teacher with a flexible approach to learning. You can truly feel the results after each class — and she’s also just a wonderful person.

Mary is an excellent teacher, and it’s a real pleasure to work with her. Time flies during her lessons, and after each one you feel that a few more pieces of the puzzle have fallen into place — the whole picture becomes clearer and clearer!

I highly recommend studying with Masha — it’s a guarantee of solid knowledge and a great mood!

You need to be open and honest with Masha — that’s the only way to find the “right story” for your personal statement together. Even if at first your thoughts seem messy and you feel like you have nothing to say, Masha will help you turn it all into a beautiful, meaningful story — one of the key parts of applying to and of getting accepted to the university of your dreams. Getting into an American university may seem like an impossible goal, and if you feel that way, Masha is exactly the person you need. She will help you organize every step, explain everything clearly, and literally guide you all the way to your flight to America.

Any part of the application process can seem complicated — especially applying for financial aid or scholarships — but you don’t have to worry if you have Masha by your side.

Finally, I would like to share one story from the last few weeks before I submitted my applications. It was December, and Masha went to the hospital with pneumonia. She had almost completely lost her voice — and how can you give lessons while lying in a hospital bed? But no, apparently you can. Or rather, Masha can. Despite her condition, she didn't leave me without support at the very moment when the final editing of all my essays was at its most intense — and there were, by the way, more than ten of them. I am very grateful to her for that.

She became not only my tutor but also my friend — which, of course, means a lot, because my admission was just as important to her as it was to me.

P.S. I completely forgot to mention the result of our work: I’ll be studying at the University of San Diego, where I received a very generous scholarship. In just a month, I’ll be in sunny California!

We started working with Masha at the end of August, and at that time, I knew nothing about the American education system. We had a clear plan to prepare for all the exams since there wasn't much time. Masha explains the structure of each exam perfectly and provides great psychological support. I wouldn't have been able to express myself in my essay without her valuable advice. I got into the university I had always dreamed of. Masha, thank you for your endless motivation and all the knowledge you’ve shared with me!

Hello everyone! I found Masha through social media. Usually, I’m quite skeptical in such cases — I don’t easily trust people from the Internet. But this time was different: I made my decision right away, within the first few minutes of watching her video. Masha explained everything so clearly, and during our first phone call she understood my situation instantly. It was easy to make up my mind after that. I realized that everything was possible — and that Masha would help me with everything, not only with English, but also with many other important parts of the admission process. In just two months, I raised my modest English level to 92 on the TOEFL and 157 on the Verbal section of the GRE General Test. By the end of January, I had applied to several universities for PhD programs in mathematics. As a result, I was accepted to Colorado State University, the University of Minnesota, the University of South Florida, and the University of Mississippi — all with full tuition waivers and scholarships (TA positions) — as well as several other universities without funding. I believe I could have made it to the Ivy League if I had taken the GRE Math Subject Test on time (it’s required by many top universities), but the next session was only in April. So, my advice: take care of that early! I chose CSU, which is a top university, especially for international students. Right now, I’m preparing my documents and getting ready to move. Huge thanks to Masha for her invaluable support and constant motivation!

I studied with Masha for a year and a half. I got into the university of my dreams and will be leaving for the U.S. in two months! I’m very grateful to her for helping me prepare for all the required exams and for her assistance with the submission of documents. She’s not only a true professional who knows her work inside out, but also a wonderful person who will always support and motivate you to achieve your goals. Thank you so much, Masha!

I met Masha last July, when I wanted to apply to an American university to study directing but had only a vague idea of what steps I needed to take. Meeting her turned out to be one of my best decisions. Masha was incredibly competent — she answered all my questions and not only helped me prepare for the SAT, but also guided me through all the nuances of the document submission process. I especially want to note that Masha has a unique ability to explain even the most difficult exam tasks in a simple and clear way. While working on my essays, she helped me find topics that revealed my personality in the best possible light. Her positive outlook inspired me not to give up on my path to the goal, even in the most challenging situations.

I’m endlessly grateful to her for her huge contribution to the fact that today I’m a student at Emerson College in Boston. I’m convinced that Masha is a top-level professional when it comes to exam preparation and admission to American universities, and I wish her and her students many new achievements.

Mary has a unique gift — she somehow manages to reach your subconscious mind. The knowledge she gives you goes so deep that it comes out naturally in stressful situations. You might think you’re not learning well, but you actually are.

It’s happened to me many times at work when I talk to native speakers: they ask me something, and I answer so confidently — and so automatically — that they take me for one of them!

And Maria is also incredibly charming. That’s a great motivator — sometimes I feel like I’m more afraid of letting her down than myself!

I asked Masha to help me prepare for the TOEFL, and all five lessons (I didn't need any more!) were incredibly productive. Masha explains everything in a clear, simple, and easy-to-understand way. She gives you exactly what you need, knows her subject extremely well, and her English is excellent! I also liked that the materials she uses are always up to date, and she can offer useful advice for almost any situation.

She has one of the most important qualities a teacher can have—she easily adapts to each student and to the way they learn and communicate. She's also fun, kind, and full of energy—you can see the enthusiasm in her eyes!

She's exactly the teacher you need—you won't regret it!

The fact that Masha is a good teacher seems to be clear to everyone. What’s probably more important is to say once again how she manages to do it. First of all, she knows her subject very well. Second, she is attentive, which is very important for establishing contact with a student. And finally, unlike most tutors, Masha, thanks to her natural gift for communication, is perceived not as an ordinary teacher (that is, as a threat), but as a friend. And she always (!) maintains a positive attitude — for which many thanks to her.

Masha is a wonderful teacher! In just 2 weeks of studying (about 4 lessons), she prepared me for the TOEFL, and I passed it on my first try with a score of 98. She knows exactly how to explain things clearly, quickly, and to the point. Highly recommend!

Masha, thank you very much!)))
