MCA-II Testing, Testing, Testing...
If your child "stresses out" over tests, or if he or she is having slight difficulties with reading, writing, or math, our high school graduation test preparation gives students both the direct instruction and practice needed to develop their skills and boost their confidence. Our preparation pinpoints specific weaknesses and gives students ample instruction and
reinforcement, using both our curriculum, and actual practice with graduation tests. Along with boosting academic skills, we spend time with test-taking skills to ensure that the students we work with are well prepared for “the big test.”

Private School Entrance Exams
Private schools are becoming more selective each year, and every fall and early winter we work with an increasing number of seventh and eighth graders preparing for the January and February entrance exams to St. Thomas, Visitation, Cretin, St. Paul Academy, Breck and other private high schools in the Metro Area. Our preparation for students typically includes a pre-test of basic skills in reading, writing and math. From the results we focus on the subject(s) with the most need. It is important that the "basic skills" in each area be fully mastered. It is these skills that will make or break a good score on an entrance exam. From there we work with more advanced skills in each subject area to increase entrance exam scores even more. Along with content area instruction, we teach test taking strategies that include time management and "intelligent" guessing strategies (only to be used as a last resort of course). If your student has even slight academic difficulties, it is important that preparation begin long before the actual test, preferably during the summer when keeping up with school work is not a concern. Please call with any questions.
Community College/ Technical School Entrance Exams
Going back to school? Let us help you save money, and more importantly, time. Many adults have utilized our services to brush up on their math, reading, writing, and foreign languages. Going into the exam "cold" will likely result in a lower test score and subsequent placement into a lower level class, spending months reviewing what together we could have covered in days. A typical program starts with a pre-test to find out what you remember. With those results we begin teaching those skills forgotten, and then assigning enough homework so that those concepts will not be forgotten again any time soon.
Other Test Preparation
As with most of our test preparation, instruction focuses only on the area of need. Either students come to us with specific concerns to be covered and reviewed, or a pretest with that particular exam can be administered to find out what skills need to be focused on. Because of our one-to one instruction and experienced staff, we can usually provide preparation in most basic and advanced test subjects. Please call us if you are interested, and we will design a program together to prepare you for your next big exam.
