Standardized Test Prep We Provide

  • Our SAT Prep Program leverages official College Board SAT materials and private sessions to prepare students to take the SAT. Our tutors meet 1:1 with students, ensuring each student receives personalized instruction. This means tutors can meet each student where they are and help them progress by leveraging the strategies that will work for them and focusing on the specific content they need.

    Students who have worked with our expert SAT Bootcamp Tutors have gained confidence and an average score increase of 100-150 points.

    With a focus on measurable results, we ensure that SAT prep is just one component of a holistic academic strategy—grades, extracurriculars, and essays all contribute to college admissions success.

  • For students aiming to transition into a private school environment, taking the SSAT (Secondary School Admission Test) and HSPT (High School Placement Test) is a critical step in the admissions process. These standardized tests assess a student’s academic readiness and help schools evaluate their potential for success. At GLLS, we understand the challenges and pressures associated with these exams, and we are here to support your student on their journey toward admission into a private middle or high school. Our tailored programs and expert guidance can help enhance their skills and confidence, ensuring they are well-prepared for this important milestone.

  • We don’t give excessive amounts of work, but given the short time frame (especially in 4-session packages), practice between sessions is key. Parents and students should expect to put in effort outside of tutoring, because practice makes progress.
