Test Prep with Ivy Tutors

Weekly mock testing is included in the price of our hourly on-on-one tutoring services. Why? Because studies show that students who prepare with practice tests are more likely to remember what they learned - even when they’re stressed during the actual test. This makes it not only a great way to solidify what was studied, but an excellent way to combat test anxiety. Bottom line: mock testing leads to better scores.
Mock Testing = Improved Scores
Our SHSAT classes combine the best parts of personalized education with the best parts of a group class. We match students of similar skill levels, creating small groups of six learners max., so students can have the individualized attention they need and learn from each other.
SHSAT Prep
Different schools have different strengths. The key to scoring well on entrance exams like the ISEE, SSAT, SHSAT, and TACHS is evaluating what you (or your son or daughter) already know and identifying any knowledge gaps that could lead to poor performance. A diagnostic test provides this information and then one of our experienced tutors steps in to help you improve your scores in weak areas.
ISEE & SSAT Test Prep
When it comes to earning the scores you want on AP tests, don’t guess at what you know well, know for sure. A diagnostic test is a quick way to evaluate your readiness for a particular subject’s exam so that you can study smarter, not just harder, and feel confident when you sit the real test.
Earn High AP Scores
Our data-driven - yet personalized - approach means the best quality diagnostic and mock testing tools with a detailed analysis of every test taken. Every year, we have students who achieve a perfect 1600 SAT or 36 ACT, while others break a 1400 or a 32, scores they previously thought were impossible. Many of our students go up by as many as 300 points on the SAT or 5 points on the ACT from prior tests.
Improve SAT and ACT Scores
Great test preparation requires review of material as well as learning strategies to solve problems and identify correct answer choices quickly. Our Regents exam prep tutors are experts in building a personalized program for each student by finding the right strategies to help your child move from question to question with ease, and identify concepts relating to specific topics on the exam.

Thank you so much for recommending Andrew as a tutor for my son. They have worked really well together. My son was very happy with his Math score in the May SATs. It has been a pleasure working with you. I will definitely recommend Ivy Tutors to friends!

My daughter set out to close a 150-point gap for her SAT in less than 6 weeks. Mark was very poised and professional in his approach. Given my daughter's individual strengths and weaknesses, he curated a lesson plan that had the necessary vigor, interest and milestones to achieve the goal.
