SAT & ACT Prep

Don’t Let the SAT or ACT Get in the Way of College Dreams

Sylvan of Mineola's SAT and ACT prep programs will help your son or daughter manage the pressure, feel confident on test day and raise those crucial scores.

With Test Prep at Sylvan of Mineola, your son or daughter will:

• Master the skills to raise scores! Six to eight weeks — that’s all it takes for many of our students to master the skills they need to raise their scores.

Feel confident and prepared on test day

With Sylvan, your teen gets a personalized lesson path. Plus, he or she will be able to take advantage of our core-tutoring curriculum to target and improve the skills and subjects that need the most work. It’s so much more than practice on worksheets!

Sylvan Is the Best at Math Tutoring

Here are just a few reasons why:

• Your child will learn in the best way for him or her. (No one-size-fits-all.) Your child's learning needs are unique, and so is our approach. We offer diverse math programs to make sure your child is learning in the way that works best. And we create highly customized learning plans to ensure your child gets the exact support he or she needs.
• Your child will get hands-on experiences with how math is taught in school. Class time isn't enough to learn concepts, so at Sylvan of Mineola, we make sure your child gets high-quality practice time too. That way, concepts stick, and you don't have to become an expert.
• Your child will feel cared for and confident. As families in Mineola will tell you, our math teachers genuinely care about your child's future. And they excel at making math relatable (whether your child is catching up or highly advanced.)
