Our preparation methods are so effective when properly followed that we guarantee you will improve your SAT score (for example) by at least 100 points on actual tests. We don't play games as some courses do by giving you a contrived, difficult test the first day and then counting your increase based on that artificially low score. We work individually (but affordably) to ensure that each student gets the attention he or she needs; this is not a factory approach. We prep all year round and customize both curricula and schedules for your convenience and optimal results. We also help with essays for college and scholarship applications.
We work with students wherever you are, and our tutors are phenomenal! We also offer an extremely effective online PSAT/SAT prep course that uses video and audio to teach everything that appears on the SAT, with unlimited access 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for up to a year (extensions are available).
We also offer individual tutoring sessions for students who need help with a particular subject.

"Just an update on Tommy's SAT. He took the test in Dec and scored: M=780, W=720, CR=640. I was somewhat worried about the CR and felt that he might have rushed it that day as we were going out of town. Yesterday he got the March score report. M=800, W=750, CR=760. We are done! Thanks to you and [his tutor] for all of your help."

"You are VERY intelligent; I've never met anyone who knows the answer to any question and WHY it is the answer, and the definition of every word; you're great! You were also always willing to help....The Words You Must Know! and Vocabutoons help a lot in terms of learning the words I will need for the SATs. The best part of the book though is the Word Building & Discovery section and the worksheets that follow: it's amazing how much larger your vocabulary can improve from knowing the roots of a word and breaking it up....Vocabutoons are very helpful in learning the words; not only do you learn the concrete dictionary definition of it, but you also get a feel for the word, which is very helpful on the SATs."
