Private SAT & ACT Tutoring

Highly personalized, data-driven test preparation tailored to each student’s goals, timeline, and learning style.

How the Process Works

Diagnostic Review & Goal Setting

Analysis of PSAT/SAT and/or ACT results and target score

​

Practice Test & Section Analysis
Identify timing issues, recurring errors, and highest-impact skills

​

Targeted, Customized Instruction
Sessions focus on what matters most: content, strategy, timing, and execution

​

Topical Practice for Reinforcement
Individualized practice sets to strengthen key skills

​

Ongoing Progress Tracking
Monitor accuracy, pacing, and score trends over time

​

Flexible Scheduling

Typically 1–2 sessions per week, adjusted to workload and timeline

 

What This Looks Like in Practice

Each student’s plan evolves based on:

​

  • performance on practice tests

​

  • observed patterns of errors

​​

  • pacing and timing

​

  • individual goals and timeline

Program Options

Starter Program — 10 Hours 

Best for:

  • smaller score increases (~50–100 points)

  • limited time before a test

  • students focusing on one section

  • families who want to try tutoring first

Standard Prep — 20 Hours (Most common option)

 

Best for:

  • 100–150+ point improvement

  • A well-paced, balanced plan for most students preparing for an upcoming test.

  • students with ~6+ weeks before test day

Comprehensive Program — 40 Hours 

Best for:

  • maximizing score potential (up to 200+ points)

  • multiple test dates

  • high or competitive score goals

  • longer timelines (10–12+ weeks)

Beyond 40 Hours

For students pursuing very high scores or preparing across multiple test dates, additional tutoring is available. At this stage, we will have a more targeted conversation about goals, progress, and the most effective way to continue.

Scheduling & Format

  • Online via Zoom

  • Flexible scheduling

  • Typically 1 or 2-hour sessions

  • Homework between sessions

How Improvement Typically Works

Results depend on the individual student, starting point, prior prep, timeline, and consistency outside of sessions.

  • Early hours often produce the largest gains.

  • Longer timelines usually allow for stronger overall improvement.

  • Additional hours are often most valuable for students pursuing more ambitious goals or trying to maximize their ceiling.
