Dear Parents and Students,

Welcome to A+ Skills SAT™ & ACT® Prep where we are dedicated to student success on the SAT™ and ACT® exams - And where our student’s scores go up big-time!

Working under the tutelage of our highly trained staff and in a small group setting - our program will help each student to increase their confidence and their SAT™ and ACT® scores! 

The objective of A+ Skills SAT™ & ACT® Prep™ is to increase each student’s emotional confidence and SAT™ and/or their ACT® scores significantly.  That said, it must be understood that achieving this goal takes student dedication to the SAT™/ACT® test preparation process including attendance at all scheduled sessions and completion in a timely manner of all homework assignments.  Also, we suggest that students practice, practice and more practice so that they become easily comfortable with the instructions and formats, etc.

Included in the course will be a sophisticated and individualized SAT™ or ACT® optional free diagnostic test for each student based on real SAT™ and ACT® practice tests in a simulated test-taking environment. This diagnostic test which we highly recommend, will be administered at the beginning of each SAT™ and ACT® course and will provide the student and instructor the kind of information that is used to focus student attention during the course. Also included will be general and specific problem strategies to maximize each student’s results on the SAT™ and ACT® exams.  Students will also learn and practice alternative strategies and methods to solve certain types of questions and will practice self-pacing for the lengthy exams.

To accomplish the stated objectives the following are the outlines and the schedules for the small group SAT™ and ACT® courses for Fall 2008:

Upcoming Fall 2008 Student Opportunities

Each student is different – hence we are offering our SAT™ and ACT® program in three ways:

  • Either as a complete 5 week small group course that covers the Mathematics, Science (ACT®), Reading and Writing Sections;
  • Or in two half small group courses – each covering only the Math and/or Science (ACT®) Sections or the English, Reading and Writing Sections – for students who only feel they need assistance in a portion of the SAT™ or ACT® exam;
  • Or as One-to-One Tutoring where the tutor can totally personalize the experience including the tutoring times.
