individual tutoring
We offer one-on-one tutoring for both the SAT and ACT. Our tutors are subject specific, so students work with both a math tutor and an English tutor. In our one-on-one sessions, we always cover test -taking strategies and each session is individualized for the student. For both tests, the tutors will review concepts in math, grammar, and other areas when needed. For the ACT, the tutors also help students prepare for the optional science section if requested. Before the test, the tutors remind each student of the structure of the test and repeat strategies and tips for each section. We use the official study guides published by the College Board for the SAT test and by American College Testing for the ACT test. Each one hour session is $70.

Test Prep Class
The Spring 2027 SAT prep class is FULL.
Starting in January each year, in addition to our 1-on-1 tutoring, we also offer a structured class to prepare for upcoming SAT tests.
The program consists of six 3-hour classes held on Saturdays, a book, and a full practice test. The class is limited to 10 students.
When to take the tests
Students who have completed Geometry and both years of Algebra will have all the math they need to take the tests in the Fall/Winter. Since Geometry and Algebra II skills are need for both tests, students who are taking Algebra 2 or Geometry as juniors will want to wait until Spring.
Something to keep in mind: preparing for both tests at the same time is challenging for most students because the tests differ significantly in format and strategy. Most of our students find it more effective to prepare for one test before shifting their focus to the other. If you plan to take both tests, avoid scheduling the test dates close together and allow enough time between them to adjust your preparation strategy.
