Interview Workshop 

Many students find that talking about themselves is uncomfortable -- to which we say: WHY? You're great! Let's enjoy it.

We cover how to speak about your accomplishments with confidence, how to assert yourself, and how to have an enjoyable interview experience.

RECOMMEND: 4-7 hourly sessions

ISEE or SSAT Preparation- 20-40 hours

We recommend 20 hour, 30 hour, or 40 hour tutoring prep for the ISEE/SSAT -- that gives us 2-3 months on the low end to prepare to raise your scores. 

RECOMMEND: 30 hrs.
