Private SAT Prep at GLC

Private SAT Prep – Personalized Help for Top Scores

Private SAT Prep can be the perfect option for many families that have diverse needs. Private tutoring has both scheduling and content flexibility, so it’s a popular choice for students with busy schedules or students that need a more customized prep program. We recommend Private SAT Prep for students who have lopsided scores on their first diagnostic and will need to focus more on one section of the test. Private SAT Prep is also the recommended route for students that score in the lower ranges and need more academic material review and for students that have initial SAT scores in the highest ranges and will benefit the most from pinpointing their specific missed question areas. We know that some students learn best in a private tutoring environment rather than in a group class and we can cover all the material from our SAT Success Course in a private setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I schedule private sessions?
Email the office director to schedule Private SAT sessions. The office director can provide scheduling options, recommendations on the appropriate timing, advice on the best instructor fit for your child, and help building your test prep plan. Most families will schedule one or two sessions weekly.

How does GLC choose the instructor for my child’s private session(s)?
We take three things into account when selecting an instructor for the sessions. First, we know it’s crucial to find an instructor with the best teaching style for a particular student’s learning style. We know that some students work better with a more structured teacher, while others work better with a more laid-back teaching style. Second, we take into account the specific score goals for a student. If a student needs to focus only on the Reading section, for example, we would pair them with a strong verbal instructor to best meet the student’s needs. Third, we consider scheduling constraints for both the student and instructor. We also always check in after your first session to ensure we have found the right match! If for any reason we have not, we are able to adjust based on current availabilities.
