We have 20+ years experience coaching the PSAT, SAT, DSAT, and ACT

Our tutoring program prepares students to achieve their best possible score with a combination of test-taking strategy and content review. We help students build a comprehensive approach to each section that includes timing strategy, the process of elimination, and ways to reduce stress, maintain focus, and optimize performance. We work with students including students with learning differences. We set high goals for improvement and tailor our work to help each student achieve score improvements that exceed expectations.

To decide whether the Digital SAT or the ACT is a better choice, we consider a range of factors and may recommend diagnostic practice tests as a starting point. Our tutoring programs consist of 10 1.5 hour meetings with either 1.5 hours of homework or a practice test between sessions.

We offer proctored practice tests for all tests with all available accommodations and technology.

AP tests give students the opportunity to add additional data to their college application package of strong grades and test scores. Our AP programs help students master critical test-taking strategies and review and strengthen core content knowledge. We offer proctored AP practice tests in our offices.

The Comprehensive Testing Program (CTP), created by ERB, is a series of standardized tests used primarily by independent and private schools. The CTP evaluates student achievement in core subjects like reading, writing, mathematics, and science. It also measures critical thinking skills through verbal and quantitative reasoning sections. Schools use the CTP to track student progress, guide curriculum choices, and evaluate instructional effectiveness.
