What is a Semi-Private Class?

Semi-Private Class

Share the cost of a senior tutor with 2 to 5 other students and learn in a group setting! Students benefit a group because they learn from each other, hold each other accountable, and have fun together! We don't believe that classes of more than 6 students have the same effect, so we call our classes "semi-privates."

Private Tutoring

Private tutoring has its benefits too. For the most personalized test preparation services, you'll want to work with a tutor 1-to-1. The curriculum and learning style will be uniquely matched to the student. Many of our clients start with a semi-private class and continue with more targeted, private prep closer to the test date.
