AP Preparation

Early preparation is key. Starting AP test prep at the beginning of the school year — even just one hour per week — can dramatically improve performance on both class tests and the AP exam. For students who start later, we offer review courses beginning in February.

College Application Essays

Through one-on-one workshops, we focus on:

  • Brainstorming strong, personal essay ideas

  • Structuring essays for clarity and impact

  • Editing for style, grammar, and voice

  • Making your story memorable for admissions officers

Arranged hourly; flexible scheduling available.
