Our comprehensive test preparation sessions are fast-paced, fun and designed to capture your child’s attention. Taught by highly qualified test preparation instructors, one-on-one instruction ensures individualized attention. Students are taught content, specific skills, and strategies tailored to each student's needs and goals.

Students are given proctored practice exams that closely simulate real testing conditions. This enables us to establish a baseline for student performance, as well as identify strengths and weaknesses to emphasize critical areas for individual improvement. Moreover, research shows that taking practice tests is one of the single most effective ways for students to increase their standardized test scores!

HSPT (High School Placement Test) Preparation

One-on-one and small group course options enable your child to prepare and gain confidence for this important entrance exam.

• Our courses are intentionally kept small (8 students max.) to ensure individual attention
• We emphasize both skill and strategy instruction as standardized tests require more than just skill level demonstration
• Full-length practice exams are included. Why are practice tests important?
  • They give us an idea of the skill level of each student, enabling us to tailor the course content to meet current student needs
  • Practice tests help students with pacing and endurance
  • Students gather confidence by understanding what to expect with the actual test
  • The initial practice exam gives us a baseline for student performance, and the final test helps us see student progress and any remaining areas students may need to improve upon
