INDIVIDUAL SAT PREPARATORY PROGRAMS

Our individual programs fall into two categories. Our on site program is described first. We have had students from Houston, Oklahoma City, Memphis, Waco, Abilene, Ft. Worth, Maui, and Paris (Texas) as well as Dallas take our programs. We will explain how we have modified those programs to work with students off site via the Internet. The most requested programs are our SAT/ACT & GRE improvement programs. We will describe them in some detail and address other programs briefly.


ONSITE
Typically, students come in here in Dallas for three individual one hour sessions where we take apart the SAT or GRE and explain to the students the math and verbal skills they need to master in order to beat the test. The analogy we make is that doing this is like teaching someone how to hit a backhand in tennis. Once we show you how, you need to practice it.

That's just what they do, they get a book of actual SATs or GREs and take the tests. Once they are finished, we go over each test and try to amplify what they're doing right and modify what they're doing wrong.

Of course, there is a large amount of individual instruction regarding specific situations encountered on the tests. We also provide extensive vocabulary work with vocabulary workshops and vocabulary words presented on video.



OFF SITE
We have two ways of doing this off site. The same text and basic program are utilized as we have explained earlier. We modify them accordingly. One way is for the student to be able to make periodic visits here for the individual classes and going over the tests. The other way is we use videotapes of our sessions, the same text and test book, and answer questions about the classes either by phone or email. In both cases test evaluation and question answering is done via the phone, fax, and email.
