It’s hard to figure out those tests on your own!
What’s on them? How do you manage your time effectively? What should you practice in order to have the most impact?
We’ve done our homework and figured this out, so you don’t have to! Use your time to maximize your scores instead.
Together, our tutors have more than 50 years of experience in working with high school students and test preparation. We believe strongly in the unique potential of each student, and we strive to help you believe in that potential as well. We thoughtfully assess each student’s goals, circumstances, and demonstrated performance in order to make individual preparation plans for each student we serve.
No two students are the same. No two goals are the same.
Scoring well on standardized tests requires knowledge of core content, effective pacing, and applicable approaches. We call them savvy strategies….and we’ve got them!
Our new test prep packages allow families to select the best pathway to success, with no hidden fees or surprises.
Do our strategies work?
You bet! Check out our results!
“Wonderful, kind, and encouraging! Kristie got to know my son and what motivated him, worked with him, and helped his self- confidence at the same time. His SAT score went up by 130 points - to higher than we thought possible. - Kim (mom), Jacksonville FL
“Kristie is amazing! She helped me improve my ACT score significantly, all while actually having a good time!” - Anna, Columbia MO
“Miss Megan is a great instructor. She makes sure you know many strategies, and know which one works best for you. She has helped me a lot, and I hope that many more students can learn to succeed from her help as much as I did! -Emilia, Columbia MO
“I hit my target score!!! I’m so happy!!! - Kate, Columbia MO
Still on the fence? Don’t be nervous! Here’s what you can expect.
After your initial payment is made, we’ll schedule your first session - and it’s a freebie! This initial consultation helps us determine “where you are” and “where you’re going”. Then we can identify exactly how to help you reach that goal.
At the end of the initial assessment, we will set a schedule for our sessions …and begin!
After each session, students will walk away with practical strategies and a real ACT to use for practice.
Time to take the test!
Students will have the savvy strategies they need to succeed on test day! We also provide quick review guides (and even a nutritional guide!) during test week to help students be their very best on test day!
What about test anxiety??
We believe that knowledge is power, and that test anxiety is the result of not knowing what to expect a test to look like, not knowing what a test will feel like, and not knowing if you are prepared for that test. Who wouldn’t be anxious??
We help our students gain knowledge about the SAT or ACT…. and by doing so, we help them gain power!! Our students learn
what the tests look like
what the tests “feel” like
how to navigate the tests
what they need to know to hit their target score!
Being prepared for the tests is about more than memorizing formulas or comma rules.
Being prepared is a mindset.. Being prepared is being mindful and intentional in approach.
We want our students to show up on test day and think to themselves: “I’ve got this!!”
