Last updated Feb 5, 2021

Your student has worked hard to build a college résumé with good grades and solid extracurricular activities, so his or her preferred school is bound to send an acceptance letter, right? As we all know, unfortunately it’s not that simple. Standardized test scores also play a big role in colleges’ decision making, so you want to ensure your student is doing everything possible to maximize his or her ACT score. act_tutoring

One-to-one ACT tutoring instruction is a great way to improve his or her score on this important test and increase your chances of admission to your favorite school.

Here are five reasons to consider ACT tutoring from our team at A+:

1. Personalized Help

At A+ Test Prep and Tutoring, we are well aware that each student has different strengths and weaknesses. Instead of using a generic test preparation book made with a “one size fits all” approach, our one-on-one ACT tutoring program is customized to your student’s specific learning style and needs. Our experienced tutors will analyze your student’s skills, teach all the necessary content, and share effective test-taking tips and strategies. Furthermore, A+ offers personalized online tracking of your student’s one-on-one sessions and practice exams results so that you can review his or her progress.

2. Practice Makes Perfect

Included in your student’s personalized ACT tutoring program is the opportunity to take three actual ACT practice exams. These practice tests allow your student and you’re A+ tutor to see what strategies you have applied correctly, and where you need more practice. Additionally, research has shown that 57% of students who take the ACT more than once increase their composite score upon retesting, so taking practice tests ahead of time can help your student score higher when you take the actual test.

3. Dedicated Tutors

We require our tutors to take the same test they will be preparing your student for—and not only do we require them to take it, but they must also score in the top 10%. After performing well on the ACT, our tutors go through a rigorous screening, interview, and training process. Furthermore, our tutors represent a wide range of professions—from writers and editors, to engineers and medical students—who not only assist your student in preparing for the ACT, but can also answer your questions about careers and life beyond high school.

4. Available Anywhere

While A+ Test Prep and Tutoring is a Philadelphia-based company with offices in Jenkintown and Montgomeryville, our tutors are available to serve you wherever is most convenient. In-home tutoring is available, as well as on-site tutoring at local schools and libraries throughout the greater Philadelphia area and the Delaware Valley. If none of those locations work for you, meet us in our custom designed virtual tutoring rooms for online tutoring, available to anyone.

5. Happy Clients

We know that the services we offer are top-notch, but you don’t have to take our word for it. Since 1992 we at A+ have helped thousands of students prepare for the SAT and ACT. Parents and students alike comment on how helpful the personalization of the ACT tutoring programs are, and the positive effects they have on building student confidence and improving students’ standardized test results.

   Best Decision Ever!

A+ Tutoring proved to be a transformative experience for me, surpassing all my expectations. Without hesitation, I wholeheartedly recommend A+ Tutoring to any parent or guardian seeking academic improvement and aiming to unlock their child’s full potential.

Prior to selecting A+, I carefully researched and evaluated other services. My goals were twofold: to prepare my son for the standardized testing required for preparatory school and college applications, and to enhance his time management skills and study habits.

Mr. John’s personalized approach resonated with my son’s personality and specific learning needs. Despite my son’s demanding sports schedule, Mr. John was incredibly flexible and accommodating. The sessions were comprehensive, combining instruction, engaging conversations, and homework assignments to reinforce existing concepts and introduce new ones in advanced math, English, and science.

The tangible outcomes were apparent: not only did my son’s grades improve by at least one grade level, but he also secured early admission to prep school! Moreover, I observed a significant boost in his confidence and overall demeanor.

I am deeply grateful to Mr. John, Ms. Dorothea, and Mr. Dan for their exceptional dedication and support. They truly went above and beyond to ensure that we felt fully supported throughout the process. Their contributions have made a profound impact on my son’s academic journey, maximizing the value of my investment.

   I just wanted to thank A+ for helping my son achieve his goals. He worked with 2 instructors Andrew and Barbara for both the SAT and AP exams. Whatever they did it was magic! Not only did he get the results he wanted- he surpassed them. It was hands-off for me, he scheduled and communicated with his instructors on his own, which taught him responsibility and accountability. Yet, their lesson follow-up emails kept me in the loop. I can’t recommend them any more highly. If you decide to use them you won’t be disappointed, you will see a student who is better prepared for their studies as well as any tests they choose to take- they even seem more mature and confident. A+ I’m giving you an A+ Thank you so much, Leah Reinhard.

   A+ Test Prep provided superior tutoring custom-tailored to meet my son’s specific needs and learning style. His SAT score increased by 160 points with 12 hours of tutoring!!! That put him well-within range for all of the schools to which he is applying. A+ truly listened to make sure they exceeded our expectations starting with matching our son with Rob. He is an experienced tutor who set goals and developed a specialized plan. Rob taught clear, structured, organized lessons, helped my son plan his practice and homework, and taught test stress-management and relaxation techniques. These lessons also helped fill-in gaps from the pandemic.  The writing, reading and math lessons and strategies  Rob taught gave Dylan a strong foundation of critical-thinking skills which will serve him well in college, the work-force, and beyond.  A+ staff, including Rob, gave prompt, detailed and insightful feedback after each session. You will get ENORMOUS value for your financial investment with A+.  I investigated 6 other tutoring companies and am confident A+ was the best for tailoring their tutoring to a program that best fit my son’s learning style!!

   This tutoring program literally changed my daughters test scores by 1000 points, and they were so helpful, and communicative with me the entire time. I really recommend them for every student, whether they are trying to make their test scores better, or make their scores above excellent

   We chose A+ for Preparation to help our daughter prepare for college entrance exams. May daughter had Pam for the verbal portion of the exam. Pam was amazing! She asked about extra-curricular activities and demonstrated genuine interest in my daughter's role as a student in and outside of the classroom. Pam also noted how important these activities are to colleges. John was the tutor for math and science. He helped my daughter feel comfortable and confident in her skills. My daughter's ACT composite score went up 5 points! I would highly recommend A+ for Test Preparation!
