Why Dalby? Rick Dalby
is, hands down, the number one tutor for graduate school entrance test preparation. For twenty years he has helped students maximize their scores on the MCAT, LSAT, GRE, and GMAT and achieve their graduate school goals. Other companies have their elite tutors, but Rick outclasses all of them.
What's involved? We offer students a flexible one-on-one tutoring program tailor made for their needs. Low scoring students usually need 12 hours or more of private instruction; average scorers need eight hours. High scorers often need as little as four hours of instruction. (Compared to as much as 24 hours with other companies.) All tutoring is scheduled for weekdays i.e. Monday through Thursday. Practice testing is by appointment.
Can I improve? Students wonder how much they can improve through Dalby's preparation. Results vary but one thing remains true, the conscientious student can attain significant score improvement.
What is the cost? The cost of the preparation varies with the number of hours of instruction. Each full hour of tutoring is $190 and partial hours are prorated at the rate of $50 per quarter hour. There is a separate charge for materials unless you supply your own (Mr. Dalby will not work with anything but material from the actual test makers such as ETS). There is a $50 charge for any on-site diagnostic testing. There is no minimum number of hours you must sign-up for.We accept Mastercard, Visa, cash, or checks.
What materials? We primarily use material produced by the test generator, that is, official test material from ETS, etc.
