SSAT / CAT / SAT Preparation

About Our Programs

An approach that addresses your child’s specific needs.

The SSAT, CAT and SAT Test Preparation Courses offered by Aspire Learning Academy provide an opportunity to engage students in meaningful learning. Our teachers are warm, supportive professionals who have success in raising test scores and know how to make the classroom experience both academically enriching and enjoyable for the student. Our preparation courses are effective and efficient because of the high level of customized teaching we provide. Study plans are adapted to the specific strengths and weaknesses of each child in the class. We can prepare your child for success in testing by helping them to understand the test format and timing, the types of questions they will see on the test, and the instructions that will be presented to them. Your child will work through real simulation practice tests and receive feedback on their performance.

Our Method

ASSESS

Before meeting with the tutor, your child will take an initial diagnostic test. This exam helps us to provide a detailed report of your child’s performance in different content areas and question types. As the program continues, your child will take a number of practice tests to ensure that he or she is progressing as expected.

PLAN

We use the results of the initial diagnostics test to create customized road map to your child’s testing success. A private tutor can focus on specific strengths and weaknesses and move through content areas and strategies at a pace that is appropriate for your child. Aspire Learning Academy instructors are well-positioned to identify and address problem areas.

PREPARE

Homework is an essential component of test preparation – the more you practice the better your scores. As a result, we create a Personalized Homework Plan with practice problems tailored to your childs’ current mastery levels. As your child improves, we present increasingly difficult material to ensure that he or she is appropriately challenged throughout the program.

SUCCEED

The overall goal is to ensure that each student feels confident and prepared on test day, and that your child scores at or above his or her potential. We have a strong track record, and our students have gone on to some of the most prestigious private schools and universities in the world.

SSAT PREPARATION

If you and your child are considering private middle or secondary school, a strong SSAT score will be a critical element of your application. We believe our one-to-one tutoring is by far the best approach for students. We can prepare your child for success in SSAT testing, by helping them to understand the SSAT’s format and timing, the types of questions they will see on the test, and the instructions that will be presented to them. Your child will have the opportunity to work through SSAT practice tests and receive feedback on their performance. We offer SSAT preparation for Elementary, Middle and Upper level SSATs.

SAT PREPARATION

A private SAT tutor can focus on specific strengths and weaknesses and move through content areas and strategies at a pace that is appropriate for your child. And since SAT tutoring provides a safe environment for your child to ask questions and admit when he or she is confused, the instructor is well-positioned to identify and address problem areas. We can prepare your child for success in SAT testing, by helping them to understand the SAT’s format and timing, the types of questions they will see on the test, and the instructions that will be presented to them. Your child will have the opportunity to work through SAT practice tests and receive feedback on their performance.
