Step 1: Initial Evaluation & Goal Setting
We begin with a tailored evaluation to analyze your distinct strengths and weaknesses over two hours of testing. While having your P-ACT or PSAT scores is beneficial, it’s not essential. Using the insights gained, we craft a comprehensive report, outlining your personalized strategy for improvement and determining the most suitable test based on your performance. This individualized approach ensures we address your unique learning needs.

​

Step 2: Scheduling Setup
Your schedule is meticulously customized, laying out each ACT/SAT session with precision. We focus not just on what topics to cover, but on optimizing the time spent on each subject for maximum efficiency. This schedule includes a recommended timeline for test registrations and is designed to provide clarity and structure well in advance. It’s a strategy-driven plan that maximizes your potential.

​

Step 3: Tutoring
Our tutoring is tailored to your progress, with each 75-minute session focusing on key areas identified in your evaluation. Homework is designed with purpose, reinforcing essential concepts without busy work. This adaptive learning model ensures a gradual but consistent mastery of the material, rather than cramming. You’ll learn to apply strategies effectively, building the confidence to excel.

​

At the end of the course, you'll complete full-length mock tests in a simulated ACT/SAT environment. These tests, spaced over two weekends, will assess your preparedness in real-world conditions. By the conclusion, you’ll have taken at least 14 mock tests, equipped with the knowledge, familiarity, and strategies to perform at your highest level.
