US Exams Tutoring

US Elementary & Middle School Tutoring

ISEE and SSAT are used for application to some secondary schools in the United States. We can provide tutors who are experienced at teaching and mentoring students through their preparation for these tests. But we can also monitor progress through mock exams we organise. Our tutor (and you) will be able to see student progression and test feedback; we use this to tailor our tutoring approach to maximise impact.

See more detail on our ISEE and SSAT tutoring or read about the differences between the ISEE and the SSAT.

We help families moving to the United States every year to select schools in areas ranging from Seattle to Houston, LA to New York, and Greenwich to Baltimore. Each year we also help many students gain access to the UK based American schools such as ASL, ACL and TASIS. Additionally we tutor, on a weekly basis, numerous students attending these UK based American schools.

US High School & Preparing For College

The SAT I assesses the skills that are taught in all schools: reading, writing, and mathematics. It lasts 3 hours and 45 minutes. The Critical Reading section asks questions about sentence completion and passage-based analysis through the use of long and short texts. The Mathematics test has two types of questions: multiple choice and student-completed. The Mathematics portion assesses numeracy, algebra, geometry, data analysis, statistics, and probability. The Writing portion of the exam is divided into two parts: multiple choice questions based on error detection and a long essay. We provide classes before some of the SAT I exam dates so please contact us to discuss your needs.

Some students will prefer to sit the ACT which is similar to the SAT but has four sections: Critical Reading, Writing, Mathematics, and Science. There is an erroneous perception that the SAT I is “more valid” than the ACT as both are widely used and accepted. We recommend that any prospective student take a practice test in both before choosing which test to take.

The SAT IIs are hour-long tests that assess specific subject knowledge such as Mathematics level I, Mathematics level II, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, French, Spanish, German, Latin, US History and English Literature. The material on these tests is different to the standard UK syllabus and therefore warrants some extra preparation. Please contact us to discuss your needs.
