Private instruction with Breakaway includes the following:
Discussions with the parent and/or student to identify the student’s academic strengths and whether the ACT or SAT is the most appropriate test.
The creation of an individualised test prep plan in light of potential exam dates. It is important to have a larger plan in place to help ensure that a student will be prepared to meet college application deadlines.
