Our introductory course is the first class that all prospective students must take. Classes are a set base three hours per week. Classes either meet once per week for a three hour long class or twice per week for 1.5 hours on Monday and Wednesday or Tuesday and Thursday.
For the first two weeks of class, students learn strategies on how to both tackle each test section and correctly answer each question type. The session begins with lessons taught in a small group setting to foster a collaborative learning environment. In conjunction with lesson plans and homework to help students memorize the new concepts that they are being taught, tutors incorporate educational games to help drive excitement and interest. Excitement and interest spur students to study more!
After the first two weeks, a tutor will sit down with each student individually to create an individual plan on how to increase a student’s composite score. While all students will have a foundation in each test section, every student has different strengths and weaknesses. Tutors are trained to analyze a student’s starting point and class progress to find a student’s sweet spots (easiest areas for students to see the biggest jumps on their ACT/SAT scores). From there, the tutor will map out with the student their ACT/SAT section goals, how much to study for each subject, and specifically what to study for each section of the tests.
For the next few weeks, the tutor will work with each student individually during classes, giving each student worksheets and practice tests curated to help the student reach and often surpass their set goals.
