Her 200-Point PSAT Test Boost Was Just the Beginning. And Then She Fell in Love

Challenge
Before joining Prep Expert®, Gabriela Reyes wanted to raise her PSAT score and her confidence, but felt uncertain about whether real improvement was possible in such a short time. Some concepts felt confusing, and the pressure of performing well added to her anxiety. She didn’t just want a generic prep course, she needed a teacher who could explain things clearly, keep her engaged, and turn test stress into motivation.
Solution
Gabriela enrolled in Prep Expert®’s 4-Week PSAT Course with Taylor Trautwein, and immediately noticed a change in the learning environment.
“She takes the time to truly connect with the group, making every session engaging, interactive, and even fun!”
Taylor’s teaching style transformed the class:
- Personal connection with every student
- Interactive, fun lessons that kept everyone engaged
- Clear, step-by-step explanations for challenging topics
- Check-ins for understanding before moving forward
“Taylor explains concepts in a way that is clear and easy to understand.”
Her passion and dedication helped Gabriela not only understand the material but enjoy learning it.
Results
In just four weeks, Gabriela experienced:
✅ +200 points on her PSAT score
✅ A renewed excitement for learning
✅ Confidence to approach future exams without fear
“Thanks to her guidance, my PSAT score increased by 200 points! Her teaching style helped me not only feel more confident, but also excited to learn.”
Recommendation
“Taylor’s passion for teaching and dedication to her students truly make a difference. I would 100% recommend her to anyone preparing for the PSAT!”
Gabriela says Prep Expert®, and Taylor in particular, made all the difference. What started as a stressful requirement became a launchpad for confidence and achievement.
