SAT and ACT preparation begin with a comprehensive assessment and a very targeted customized approach. Previous years' tests are easily accessed and students can drill on their own. Value is added by identifying those concepts that an individual student has not fully grasped. Preparation is ideal when it includes more than test tips but rather a reinforcement of subject matter that includes full explanations.
Algebra and Geometry lessons are offered as a means to keep current with classroom topics or as a preparatory class before school begins. Help is also offered on an ad hoc basis as needed and is often free of charge.
