SAT Preparation Classes

For our SAT preparation courses, we have now partnered with Hanover County Parks and Recreation. Beginning in January 2009, we will be offering our classes at various county facilities throughout Hanover County, Virginia. Classes will remain small--always less than 10 students--and intensive. The classes will consist of eight 2-hour sessions and will include homework to further learning.

In addition, we will continue providing one-on-one tutoring for those students who need extra help, want specialized attention, or simply are not able to attend the classes. The tutoring can be for SAT preparation, but can also be for English, math, or science.

For further information about the SAT preparation classes or one-on-one tutoring, or to offer suggestions, contact the professors or call 804.883.7480.
