Alex has been amazing!!!! I saw such a difference halfway through my sessions! He has opened my eyes to a new way to see questions, break down the questions, how to apply my knowledge and give me the confidence to grow after each session. He was the right amount of support, comfort through hard days, and the push that I needed during my studies. Thank you Alex truly for all of your time!!

I had a great experience working with Alex. He quickly identified the specific areas where I was struggling and tailored our session to address those challenges directly. What I found most helpful was his problem-solving approach and the way he used realistic, scenario-based questions to simulate actual exam situations. This allowed me to understand my mistakes in real time and develop better clinical reasoning skills.
I would highly recommend Alex to anyone looking for personalized support and effective exam preparation.

Alex was amazing! As this was my third time taking the exam, I felt defeated and burnt out. Instead of passing over how I felt, Alex resonated with me and always checked in. The strategies he taught me were helpful and individualized to my learning.

I’d recommend him in a heartbeat. Because of his help, I passed my third attempt and had a 29 point increase!!

Alex was an amazing help and resource during my time studying for the NBCOT. After a few sessions with him, my score increased 56 points! He truly helped me understand the “why” behind each question that we reviewed— Why each answer choice was right or wrong. He helped with my clinical reasoning and overall confidence while studying!!

10/10 recommend Alex for NBCOT tutoring!

Alex was extremely helpful in preparing to retake the NBCOT. He broke down questions in a way that made me understand the content better and actually answer the question how the NBCOT intends me to. He was very thorough, and always made sure I understood everything and was available if I had any questions. Overall, with his tutoring and help, my score improved by 42 points since the first time I had taken it and not passed. He was very encouraging and helped me understand the strategy of actually answering the questions instead of just relearning content over and over again. I would highly recommend his tutoring services to anyone taking the NBCOT!

Alex was an AMAZING tutor!!

Alex was an AMAZING tutor!!! very honest and open from our initial conversation, which I truly respected. He helped me navigate questions strategically and identify the underlying concepts needed to select the correct answer. His knowledge is exceptional, and he explains difficult concepts in a way that feels clear and manageable. I highly recommend him to anyone preparing for the NBCOT. He played a huge role in boosting my confidence and made a lasting impact on my journey to becoming an occupational therapist.

This was a great tool to help me pass the NBCOT! Having Alex guide me understand what the questions were really looking for was what helped me get over the 450 finish line. He was always super friendly and never made me feel bad for not knowing some content or getting answers wrong on the practice questions. Overall, would highly recommend!

NBCOT Exam

I worked with Alex to prepare for my NBCOT, and I couldn’t recommend him more! What really set him apart was his focus on the strategy behind the exam, not just content. I realized with his guidance that success on the NBCOT isn’t only about knowledge-it’s about knowing how to think through what the exam is asking. Alex taught me how to break down questions, understand the underlying patterns, and approach answers with confidence. The result? I improved my score by nearly 40 points this time and passed! I genuinely owe that leap to the strategic insight and clarity Alex provided. If you want to not just study, but truly understand the exam, Alex is your go-to!

the best NBCOT tutor

I was feeling burnt out from studying and started losing hope in myself after failing three times. I was stuck in the same range even when each time I felt like I was studying harder and understanding the content better (429, 427, 431). It was very frustrating and I questioned if OT was for me.

I came across reviews about Alex’s tutoring and honestly was a bit skeptical but at that point, I was desperate and willing to try anything.

I had 5 sessions with Alex. Every time, he helped me break down the question better, truly understand what it’s asking, and highlight key details. But what I'm truly grateful for was how helped me regain confidence in myself, gave me constant encouragement, and taught me how to calm my test anxiety. I passed on my 4th attempt with a 467! I know that I couldn’t have made it without Alex’s help. Thank you so much Alex! You’re truly the best (Crying while typing this).

Alexandra S

I am so lucky to have had Alex for tutoring. After failing for the 3rd time, I lost confidence that I would be able to pass the test on my own. I was hesitant in receiving tutoring, but once I conversed with Alex during my consultation, I found he was very supportive and empathetic to the frustration I was experiencing and knew he was going to be the right tutor for me. During my eight 1:1 sessions, he taught me how to break down the questions to focus on the important information, what my weak areas were and completely changed the way I approached the exam. With his help, I was able to pass on my 4th attempt with a 462! Thank you Alex!

Don’t give up. And if you feel like you need to, call Alex.

After multiple failed attempts at taking the exam, I felt like I was ready to give up. When I did my research for more resources/support, I remember talking to Alex about my previous experiences and he was so transparent and honest about the importance of leaving the past in the past. He gave me the tools I needed each session to really prioritize my strengths in knowing the content but working on my weak areas in terms of question break down and clinical reasoning. Most importantly, he stressed the importance of having as much confidence as possible and believing in myself despite how discouraging it felt to have failed so many times. I’m eternally grateful for him and can truthfully say each session was worth the investment because I PASSED. Thank you Alex for everything!!!

After multiple attempts at taking the NBCOT exam, I can confidently say that working with Alex was a turning point in my journey. His support, knowledge, and dedication made all the difference in helping me finally succeed.

What stood out the most was his ability to help me break down complex concepts into manageable, understandable pieces. He didn’t just focus on memorization—he helped me truly understand how to think like an occupational therapist and apply clinical reasoning to exam questions. This was something I struggled with before, and it completely changed the way I approached the test.

Alex was also incredibly patient and encouraging. After failing previously, it was easy to feel discouraged, but he consistently motivated me, helped rebuild my confidence, and created a structured study plan tailored to my needs.

The practice questions, test-taking strategies, and real-life clinical examples we reviewed were extremely helpful and directly applicable to the NBCOT exam. I walked into my final attempt feeling more prepared, confident, and calm than ever before—and I passed.

I am so grateful for his guidance and would highly recommend him to anyone preparing for the NBCOT, especially if you’ve struggled in the past.

I highly recommend Alex as a tutor

I highly recommend Alex as a tutor. He explained concepts in a clear way that aligned well with my learning style. He was also very attentive in identifying my areas of weakness and provided strategies to help me improve them effectively.

He created a supportive environment and encouraged questions, which made me feel comfortable asking for clarification when needed. His flexible scheduling made it easy to fit sessions into my routine, and he was always efficient and responsive in communication.

I am happy to say I passed the exam and would strongly recommend Alex to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and supportive tutor.

I truly can’t recommend Alex enough as an occupational therapy tutor. His support made all the difference in my journey.

After failing my exam the first time, I felt discouraged and honestly scared to try again. But working with Alex completely changed my mindset. He didn’t just review content....he taught me how to break down each question and think through it the right way. I used to always get stuck between the two best answers, and he helped me refine my thought process so I could confidently choose the correct one.

I walked into my exam feeling so much more confident than before, and I passed! I’m now officially an Occupational Therapist.
If you’re on the fence or struggling, I highly recommend working with Alex. It was one of the best decisions I made!

Working with Alex was truly a turning…

Working with Alex was truly a turning point in my journey to passing the NBCOT exam.

After not passing twice, I felt extremely discouraged and overwhelmed. On top of that, I was pregnant and going through so much physically and emotionally. By the time I was preparing for my third attempt, I was already 7 months pregnant, which made the process even more challenging.

From the moment I connected with Alex, I felt understood. He took the time to really get to know me—how I learn, where I was struggling, and how to meet me at my level. His approach was not only strategic, but also incredibly kind and patient, which is exactly what I needed during such a stressful time.

Together, we built a plan that worked for me, and for the first time, I felt confident in my studying. With his guidance and support, I was able to push through and successfully pass my exam on the third try.

I’m so grateful for the teamwork we had during this time. Alex played such a meaningful role in helping me reach this goal, especially during such a demanding season of my life. I truly couldn’t have done it without him.

I highly recommend working with Alex to anyone preparing for the NBCOT exam.

THANK YOU!

THANK YOU, Alex! My NBCOT journey looked a little different than I expected after two failed attempts. My confidence was low, and I needed some external structure and support when I happened to stumble across his page. Seeing these testimonials is what led me to work with Alex, and I can’t believe I’m now one of the people writing that I passed the exam!

Alex was so encouraging and hopeful from our first consultation call all the way to our session right before my test. His method for breaking down each question and creating a clear study plan helped me pass on my third attempt, and I’m so, so grateful.

Alex truly cares about his students, and you can tell. His support was pivotal in helping me finally pass!

Alex helped me pass

Alex was the missing piece to passing my exam. After multiple failed attempts, his kindness, knowledge, motivation, and guidance in developing my critical thinking and problem solving skills when answering questions made a huge impact and ultimately helped me to succeed.

Finally passed the test

I used TruLearn and the NBCOT study pack as a resource when I was studying for this exam. I failed 5 attempts ranging from 445-449. I was thinking of giving up or giving myself a long break. I stumbled on Alex’s podcast on Spotify for some motivation, and it really motivated me to get back to studying. I also wanted to use his tutor sessions so I can see what I can improve on my test taking skills. I can say it was worth it. Alex was able to go over topics I was unfamiliar with mnemonics and break down questions. Alex is also flexible with scheduling tutor sessions and is able to respond messages promptly.
