Test Prep
For better or worse, standardized testing is part of the American educational system and students must become familiar with test-taking strategies in order to excel.
A high quality test prep tutor can help students master the substantive material that appears on the exam, learn general test-taking strategies and strategies that apply to a specific test, and identify the patterns that appear in each question type.
Preparing for a standardized test is just as much about learning how to take the test as it is about knowing the material. When it comes to test prep, it’s all about practice, practice, practice. Some students are capable to practicing on their own without any guidance while some prefer a formal classroom setting where an instructor guides them through material and requires practice tests. All students, however, could benefit from one-on-one test prep tutoring

Cancellation Policy
If the client cancels a tutoring lesson less than 24 hours before the appointment, the client must pay a cancellation fee, which is one half of the applicable tutoring rate.
