Expert Guidance

Expert Test Prep
Unlike Anything Else

Expert Guidance: Our instructors are not just teachers; they're mentors who've been in your shoes and know exactly what it takes to excel at the ACT. They're here to share their insights and strategies, making your journey to a top score smoother and more achievable. They also save you valuable time, by helping students target the areas where the most support is needed, to minimize study time and maximize results.

No Rigid Programs, Low Stress. Always Customized to Your Needs and Budget.

We offer complete flexibility. We always start with a report and let the numbers do the talking. Your student may need a comprehensive approach or just a small boost. We don't have a minimum and we don't have a prescribed "program." Your student gets exactly what they need - no more, no less. We work hard with each student to give them the very best opportunity to improve all-around score results with the most up-to-date strategies and exam know-how available today.

No Added Stress. Much Less Homework!

This generation of teenagers are the most stressed in history. We are committed to reducing their stress, not adding to it. Our test prep does not add hours of homework to their week.

You've probably heard from other companies, "their score depends on how much they work." Nonsense! It's not about quantity, it's about quality. Students do the hard work with their tutors and just bring home some light review.

Sound strange? Well, it works!!

Taking our FREE diagnostic ACT exams are a great way to begin preparing.

“You have given Luke the desire to do well. I’ve been working on that for 4 years! He was so excited to show me his grades and current jump in overall GPA. I don’t know what you are doing, or how you are doing it, but thank you!”

Parent, Glencoe

“Just wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of you for all the support that my son got over this first semester in high school. It seemed that he had no idea what he was doing at the start of his freshman year. Your tutor assisted him with organization, study, writing and most importantly thinking skills... best of all, my son loves working with him! Your tutor completely changed the course of his first semester.”

Parent, Northbrook
