Do you help families decide which program is the best fit?

1.

2.

Do you offer SAT® and ACT® support?

Yes. We offer SAT® and ACT® prep, including guidance on which test is the better fit based on a student’s diagnostic performance. Most of our classes are SAT®-based as we tend to get more demand for SAT® courses.

How far in advance should a student start prep?

3.

Most students see the best results starting 8–12 weeks before a test date, though earlier starts are recommended for students planning multiple attempts.

4.

When / in what grade should students start test prep?

When to start test prep depends on a student’s current math class, NOT on their grade level.

Students can begin prep once they are halfway done with Algebra 2. This tends to be halfway through sophomore or junior year depending on if a student is in advanced math or not.

Do you work with students who have test anxiety or learning differences?

5.

Yes. We regularly work with students who experience anxiety, ADHD, or need a more individualized approach, and we’ll recommend private tutoring when appropriate.

Do you guarantee score increases?

6.

No — and we’re transparent about that, as we cannot control student effort or test-day mishaps. What we do guarantee is strategic, data-driven instruction, realistic goal-setting, and an honest assessment of what is achievable within a given timeline.

100%. We work hand-in-hand with our IEC partners to ensure they are up-to-date on how their students are doing, as we understand test scores can greatly impact school list and admission prospects. It is essential we are all on the same page so we can best support our shared students.

Will you keep me updated regarding my students’ progress?
