Frequently Asked Questions
Currently, I tutor exclusively via Zoom, which allows me to tutor students from around the world.
Typically, either 60 or 90 minutes.
I'd suggest taking a practice test for both, and seeing which test you prefer. Historically, the SAT has been more "tricky" and the ACT has placed more of an emphasis on speed, but this might change with the advent of the new SAT format and online testing beginning in 2024.
Many students start prep the summer before junior year. A bit earlier is OK too.
I’m a big stickler for using official materials whenever possible. Third-party materials (Princeton Review, Kaplan, etc.) are often inaccurate in emulating the tone, difficulty level, and structure of the actual test. The main books I use are the SAT blue book, the ACT red book, and the ETS official guides for the GRE. I also use materials by professional tutors such as Erica Meltzer, that are widely read and have proven to be of high quality.
