OUR METHOD

Why the Avery Prep approach works for ACT

The ACT rewards speed and breadth. Our approach builds both — starting with your student’s specific scoring patterns, not a generic curriculum.

01

Baseline + scoring pattern analysis

We identify where points are being lost and the fastest available gains before writing the plan. Smart targeting beats brute-force drilling.

02

Timing and pacing systems

Section-specific pacing strategies so your student stops leaving points on the table from running out of time.

03

Accuracy under time pressure

Accuracy first, then speed — so improvements don’t come at the cost of careless errors.

04

Built to hold under pressure

Neuroscience-backed retention so what’s learned in session transfers to real test conditions — not just practice.

05

Krystyna reviews every plan, weekly

Leadership oversight means the plan adjusts in real time — not at the next session when a week is already lost.

The result

A student who moves through all sections with calm, consistent execution on the day that matters.

“There’s a plan from day one — and it adjusts as we go.”

— Parent of SAT student

STRUCTURE

What tutoring actually looks like

Most students meet 1–2x per week. Every session is purposeful — not a passive review of what went wrong.

  • Targeted skill work across English, Math, Reading, and Science
  • Timed drills with immediate, detailed review of errors
  • Mistake pattern identification — and concrete steps to stop repeating them
  • Between-session practice calibrated to the plan, not a generic question bank

Session focus shifts across the prep cycle — earlier sessions prioritize skills and strategy, later ones shift toward full timed sections and stamina.

WATCH DREW’S INTERVIEW

In the interview, Drew explains exactly what changed — not in the abstract, but the specific systems we used. It’s worth watching even if your student is just starting out.

TIMING

When should you start?

The earlier the start, the more room there is to build skills, run diagnostics, and sit the test with confidence — not urgency.

Ideal: summer after Sophomore year

Maximum time for skill development, diagnostic testing, and strategic retakes before college applications come into view.

Starting as a Junior or Senior? Still worth it.

Many of our strongest ACT results come from students who start later and go all-in. We’ll build a focused plan around your test date.

FAQ

Questions worth asking

If something isn’t answered here, ask us directly. The consultation is free and there’s no pressure.

We recommend running a diagnostic on both before committing. Some students naturally score higher on one — if that’s the case, the choice is easy. The ACT rewards speed and breadth; the SAT rewards methodical thinking. Most students have a clear gut sense of which felt better after both practice tests.

Yes — with a strong focus on strategy, pacing, and extracting information efficiently. ACT Science is less about memorized science knowledge and more about data interpretation under time pressure. That’s a skill we build explicitly.

Yes. Timing systems are a core part of ACT improvement. We build section-specific pacing strategies and drill them so they become automatic — not something your student has to think about mid-test.

Not at all — an official test result gives us a clear starting point. We know exactly what sections to target and can build a plan to raise your score before your next test date.

Every Avery Prep tutor goes through a rigorous vetting and training process. We recruit experienced tutors from around the country with strong academic backgrounds and a proven record of results. From there, tutors are trained in the methods Krystyna has developed over the last 15 years to help students reach perfect and near-perfect scores.
