GLC’s Approach to SAT Prep – Trusted Since 1998

At GLC, we know each student is different and each student’s SAT prep plan must fit their unique needs. No matter what options our students choose, they will work face-to-face with our expert instructors that are energetic and passionate about helping students succeed and build confidence. Our instructors are graduates from top universities like Yale, Penn, UVA, Notre Dame, and Brown and have extensive experience working with high school students. Our full-time instructors have over 100 hours of training and are adept at connecting with students and teaching the most important strategies and lessons needed for success on the SAT.

We know that preparing for the SAT is stressful for parents and students alike. We’re committed to answering your questions to find the option that’s right for each family. Our instructors know that communication is crucial and provide families with regular updates about student progress. We also believe that relaxed, confident students are the ones that perform the best on test day. We teach students the material that’s most important for the SAT and provide ample practice opportunities so that they can be confident in their knowledge on test day.

What’s the Right Choice for Your Student?

The SAT Success Course is our most popular option, having served nearly 5000 students since 1998. The course delivers comprehensive preparation for all sections of the test – Reading, Writing & Language, Math, and the Essay. The course covers important strategies, reviews tested math and verbal concepts, and provides hundreds of real SAT practice problems. Students can reinforce what they’ve learned with weekly homework, SAT Study Lounge, and diagnostic tests.

Private SAT Tutoring works well for students that need a significantly personalized prep program. Private tutoring can focus just on student’s weakest areas and works well for students that have busy schedules, since private tutoring is offered Sunday through Thursday. It also is a go-to choice for students who have unequal scores in the math and verbal sections. We recommend private tutoring for students starting with very high scores and students that might need more instruction on academic content than is provided in the class. Students can schedule 6 to 14 or more private hours, and a director can help families pick the best package based on amount of prep needed, sections of the test to cover, and time to SAT test date.

SAT Success Plus is the best of both worlds. It includes the full SAT Success Course which gives students a comprehensive relevant SAT information plus two one-hour private sessions with an instructor. This option is perfect for students that want to make sure they cover all the important content from the class, but also have the opportunity to receive extra, targeted tutoring. We recommend this option for first-time test takers that may be anxious about test day, since some individualized attention and focused practice on weak areas can help student confidence soar.
