SAT/ACT PrepSAT In-Home TutoringMany students find that augmenting what they have learned in school with individualized tutoring as the exam approaches engenders increased self-confidence and enhanced test scores. Most students also learn better (and faster!) in a one-on-one setting, or they may require a more flexible schedule due to extracurricular activities. Finally, one-on-one tutoring also allows students to focus on just the areas of the SAT where they experience difficulties, rather than sitting in class listening to explanations of things they already understand.A student who is psychologically prepared for the SAT examination has a greater chance of performing at his or her highest potential. Our tutors spend a significant amount of time providing students the tools they will need to approach the exam free of misconceptions and anxiety. 
I wanted to let you know that my son came up 200 points on the SAT. Please convey to Ellen, his tutor, our gratitude. His score in critical reading improved greatly. He now feels good about himself and this experience has helped build his self-confidence
Our tutors will address the following:
Changes in SAT ExamThe SAT examination changed in March 2005. The most significant changes were the addition of a writing/verbal component that comprises 800 of the new 2,400 points, the elimination of the analogies section in the verbal section of the exam, and the bolstering of the math portion to include Algebra II and other, more advanced, math concepts. Our tutors are prepared to address these changes. Our individualized, one-on-one instruction also will recognize and adapt to these changes. |
