- Want to retake a test to boost their score
- Want consistent, professional help over a 12-week period to build the “mental muscle” necessary to take tests with confidence.

Our dedicated tutors are focused on helping you or your student:

Our 15+ year veteran tutors have helped hundreds of students maximize their scores. We teach students the structure, scoring, content, and strategies to help them achieve their highest possible score.
Shift your mindset.
From test anxiety to admissions and scholarship pressures, our team helps clients reframe their thinking, relieve overwhelm, and overcome the mental blocks that keep them stuck.
Get inside the test.
Our experienced coaches help students understand the psychology behind the exams. We utilize College Board tests and materials to ensure that students see every possible test question and master strategies for answering each one. Students learn to manage time and think like test writers to navigate the exam like a pro.

Practice, Practice, Practice.
Our students take multiple practice exams so when they go to take the test, the exam feels familiar and they feel completely confident.
Improve admissions and scholarships.
Achieving your highest score boosts your chances of getting into choice schools, and securing scholarships to help with college tuition.
Gain valuable life skills.
Approaching a big test is an excellent training ground for improving overall study skills approaching any big challenge in life. Our strategies build confidence and life skills students will use in the classroom and beyond for years to come.

“Our daughter has had a wonderful experience with Tutor Partners for SAT Prep. The entire management team and her tutor, Adam, are top notch. She has learned great study skills, strategies and test preparation for the SAT that are influencing studying and test taking in her high school schedule. Thank you for the wonderful work you and the team are doing, Karima!”

“Tutor Partners was fantastic for my daughter in preparing her for the SAT! They were accommodating to her busy schedule and found a time that worked for everyone. After each session I received a detailed email on the progress that was made and any next steps. She felt confident in taking the SAT and most importantly her score went up 250 points. We would highly recommend Tutor Partners.”
Sara Corckran
“My daughter received excellent tutoring in preparation for the SAT. Her individual sessions were custom tailored to her needs, and perhaps more importantly, to her learning style. They were also super strategic and helped her focus on increasing her capacity in areas that would have the most impact. A month of weekly tutoring resulted in her getting into her first choice college!”

Let’s get started.
Get in touch today.
One of our Academic Advisors will contact you to identify your student’s testing needs and create a personalized plan for success. We’ll also ask for any previous SAT/ PSAT/ ACT scores, if applicable.
Meet your tutor.
We’ll match your student with an expert tutor and/or small group, and establish a weekly schedule that fits your life.
Learn and practice
Your student will work with their tutor for one hour each week, for an average of 12 weeks. Your student will receive assigned practice “homework” between meetings, and parents will receive feedback after each session.
Track your progress.
Your tutor/coach will send a feedback report after each session, and our Family Engagement Specialist will check in regularly for feedback and support as well.
Refine as you go.
With each session, we’ll adjust your tutoring plan to help you achieve your highest score when the big day comes.
FAQ
The ideal time to start working on test-taking skills and strategies is the summer after 10th grade.
Yes! We take a holistic approach to supporting students of all backgrounds and needs, including students with learning disabilities and IEPs.
If you have a test scheduled in the next few weeks, we recommend a few a la carte 1:1 sessions and ideally, joining an 8-hour small group to prepare for an upcoming test. Once you have your scores, we’ll recommend a tutoring plan for taking the test again using your first score as a baseline. Contact us to learn more.
No. We don’t promise specific results, knowing that every student learns differently and at their own pace. Instead, we believe that test prep should be done over time so students feel less overwhelmed about the process. Our approach helps students truly build and master skills for the test in the same way that they learned other core skills, like reading, math, or playing an instrument or sport – skills that last a lifetime.
