Do you meet in person or online?
Both. In-person sessions across Cranford, Westfield, and surrounding towns; online sessions everywhere else. Same materials, same method, same tutor — many families mix the two.
Who does the teaching?
Luca. Every session, every week. There are no handoffs to junior tutors and no rotating staff — the person who builds your student's plan is the person who teaches it.
How long is each session?
Sessions run about an hour, scheduled weekly at a consistent time. In the final weeks before a test date we can extend or add sessions as the plan requires.
What happens if my student has to miss a week?
Let us know in advance and we reschedule within the same week whenever possible. The program pauses rather than skips — your student never loses a week of the plan.
When should my student start preparing?
Work backward from the target test date: the program takes twelve weeks, so start at least three months out. For most juniors that means beginning in the fall or early winter for spring test dates.
SAT or ACT — how do we choose?
If your student hasn't decided, the week-one diagnostic covers both formats. The choice falls out of the data: which test suits their pacing, strengths, and target schools — not guesswork.
Is sophomore year too early?
For the formal 12-week program, usually yes — junior year is the sweet spot. But sophomores with foundation gaps in algebra or reading benefit enormously from course tutoring first, so the prep program starts from strength.
Which test date should we target?
The first official sitting that leaves room for one retake before application deadlines. We map this out together in week two so the whole season is planned from the start.
