Diablo Magazine’s 2011 Best of the East Bay SAT Prep Program

The Most Comprehensive SAT Prep Program
01
Our complete SAT Prep program includes 9 small classes organized by ability level, 3 hours of private tutoring, 3 practice tests/assessments with detailed analysis (that we respond to), 4 workshops, and unlimited follow-up support.  Our students also complete homework assignments after every class.  More importantly, we review the results so we can  cover the problem areas at the beginning of the following class.

Differentiated Instruction
02
We group our students by ability level and offer relevant, focused instruction. While other companies lump everyone together, we provide accelerated instruction for advanced students, and appropriate instruction for our other groups.  This is EXTREMELY important if you want your child to achieve the highest score increase!

Ongoing Assessment
03
Our students complete up to four practice tests, and we carefully analyze the results.   More importantly, WE respond to the analysis to ensure that our curriculum is appropriately focused.  Most companies give their students access to limited data and then expect the students to respond.  Only a small percentage of students actually look at the information and even fewer respond.

Small Classes..Private Tutoring..Weekends or Weeknights
04
Our sections have a maximum of 12 carefully matched students, who are led by one of our gifted, engaging SAT coaches.   In addition to eleven classes, we include three hours of private tutoring and a variety of subject-specific workshops. Although we now offer weeknight classes, we encourage you to register your son or daughter for one of our weekend sessions. Students are well rested on weekends and they aren’t worried about homework or an upcoming test. Our weekend students are always welcome to attend a weeknight class if they miss one of their weekend sessions.

The Exam Cram packet he gave us helped a bunch. It was a better review than I could ever have done by myself.

I benefited from the SAT prep and Shadow Classes - obviously, since I was accepted and have enrolled at UC Berkeley. Thanks.
