Individualized SAT / ACT Preparation - Price: $29 - $40 / hr

I provide individualized customized tutoring to prepare students for the SAT. Note that I did NOT say that I provide a test prep course . Is there a difference ... YES there is Inherently test prep courses focus on the needs of the masses not YOUR CHILD the individual. Companies that offer prep courses tell you that they spend X hours on Critical Reading Y hours on Math and Z hours on Writing... before they even meet your child That doesn t make sense We all know that different people have different strengths and weaknesses. Therefore students preparing for the SAT or ACT need different amounts of work in different areas. In my customized tutoring your child will briefly review skills concepts that s he understands as a refresher but then will spend the majority of his her time on concepts that are difficult for him her. I also teach students to maximize their scores by using test-taking strategies specific to their test-taking styles and skills. In contrast students in prep classes often waste their time (and your money) going over skills that they know then rushing over concepts that they don t understand. Test prep courses also lead students to believe erroneously that there are shortcuts for beating the test. Which option do you want for your child When I first meet a new student I give a diagnostic test then provide a skill-by-skill breakdown of the results (including my observations of test-taking strategies that they used). Then I analyze his her strengths and weaknesses to create a tutoring plan based on his her needs (and your budget) My students have been INCREDIBLY successful meeting or exceeding their SAT ACT goals and even more importantly most of them report that they now understand math and grammar in much deeper ways. I happily provide references I never charge more than 40 hr and can be as little as 29 hr depending on the length of the sessions and the type of payment plan that you select.
