We generally work 6 days a week (Sunday-Friday), and we often work late to accommodate students' busy schedules.

While this rarely happens, we can and will switch tutors. This may involve having to tutor on a different day as the potential tutors may already have students at your specific time slot — but we will make the switch.

While we have a superior track record and have helped thousands of students to dramatically improve their test scores since 2003, there are only two things that are guaranteed: death and taxes. Offering score guarantees is not only an undeliverable promise — no one can guarantee how a student will perform test day — but it also sends the message that students don't have to work hard, because their parents paid for a guaranteed point increase. We work hard to show students that with dedication and practice they can dramatically improve their scores. Our testimonials are a great place to get a sense of how our students perform. It's important to note that scores do not always increase as a result of nerves, illness, fatigue, a distraction on test day, or because the student did not do all of the assigned homework and did not fully apply him/herself during the time we worked together. Preparing for a standardized test is much like preparing for a piano recital: practice and hard work after each tutorial are what give each student the best chance to achieve higher scores, which is why we work to inspire students to work hard.

You may cancel up to 24 hours prior to the tutorial without penalty. After that, there is a $60 charge if we are not notified 24 hours prior to the tutorial. If a student cannot attend a tutorial due to illness, there is no charge if we are notified 6 hours prior to the tutorial - otherwise, there is a $60 charge.

Payment is expected to be made in full prior to the completion of a student’s tutoring program.
