Program Description

All of our tutors are either retired or current certified teachers at some level. Many of our tutors have a Master's Degree, Nationally Board Certified, and/or are award-winners. We have a collection of over 200 years of experience among our 20+ tutors. We conduct individual and small group tutoring for specific subjects (such as reading, writing, math, social studies, and science) from K-college. We also conduct small groups and classes to support students preparing for various tests: PSAT, SAT, ACT, ASVAB, AP exams, and state tests. Our test prep programs help students earn over $20 million in scholarships every year the last few years.
