Dalby’s Private ACT Tutoring

Are you fed up with the SAT? Does the thought of getting to the test center at 8am and leaving after 1pm (with only 2 five-minute breaks) leave you feeling overwhelmed? Does the idea of writing a timed essay make you anxious?

You are not alone. SAT scores all over the country are dropping and the word on the street is that the SAT is too long. Unfortunately it will be a few years before the College Board gets the message. In the meantime, we recommend taking the ACT.

Advantages:

It’s shorter (2 hours and 55 minutes)

The essay is optional (30 minutes)

No guessing penalty

Achievement based

(Click here if you are confused about ACT vs SAT scoring?)

What’s involved? We are offering students a flexible one-on-one tutoring program that is tailor-made for their needs. Low scoring students usually need ten hours or more of private instruction; average scorers need eight hours. High scorers often need as little as four hours of instruction - often broken down into half-hour sessions.

Not sure about the available testing dates? Here is the official ACT calendar.

What materials? We will be using The Real ACT Prep Guide, published by the makers of the real test. We will also be using published copies of exams given in previous years. It is important that the student bring his or her book to every session.

Still not sure if the ACT is right for you? Visit the ACT official site to try some sample ACT problems.

* There is a one-time registration fee of $200 (waived if you paid the registration fee for SAT tutoring) which includes the cost of the diagnostic test and subsequent practice testing sessions.
* Each full hour of tutoring is $150; a half-hour session is $75.
* The registration fee and 1st hour of tutoring ($350.00) are due when you sign up. After the first hour of tutoring, we will make a recommendation as to the total number of hours needed to achieve goals. All scheduled appointments must be prepaid or secured by credit card.
Your seat is guaranteed only upon payment in full.

* A full refund (minus a $100 non-refundable fee) is available up to 48 hours before the diagnostic test.
* Should you cancel after having taken the diagnostic test an additional $100 will be deducted from the refund.
* Should you cancel after having taken the first tutoring session there are no refunds.
* We require a full 24 hours to cancel a tutoring appointment for any reason, icluding sickness, but excluding weather (Fairfax County school policy dictates), or the full hourly rate will be forfeited.
