Preparation
Cupertino Tutoring's SAT/ACT
Test Preparation programs are based on one-on-one,
in-home, focused instruction. The student receives
tutoring that is personalized to their unique style and
capability. Our learning plans include realistic
and agreed upon goals, flexible scheduling and periodic
testing and feedback. This approach yields for the
student, his or her best chance at attending a top
college or university. Several standardized
programs of different duration and focus are available
(see below). Tailored programs are also available.
All of our programs include the following:
Diagnostically Speaking
Students take a diagnostic
test before the program begins. The results of this test will allow
us to
understand the student's specific strengths and weaknesses.
The results will also give the assigned tutor insight into how to work
with each student and create the most optimal plan for achievable goals.

Our Strategies
We show our students great strategies
in test-taking. These methods will not only be
addressed within the tutoring sessions, but the student will
use them on their home assignments as well. This will
prove to be an exciting learning experience!
The Fundamentals
Our program
will provide the student with a solid foundation in math,
English, and science. This is where the weaknesses
discovered in the diagnostic evaluation will be transformed
into strengths.
Scheduling
This part is highly flexible and will
be in sync with the student's current school schedule.
Our tutors will work within the time and location
constraints preferred by the student.
Course Materials
Our
ACT/SAT programs include all materials, including the course
book, flashcards (SAT only) and genuine ACT of SAT practice
tests.
Homework
The student's is usually
assigned approximately two hours of homework per session.
Remember, this is where the American Tutoring
strategies are used and mastered.
