Private SSAT Tutoring Testimonials |
What our former students and their parents say about PREPSKILLS's Private in-home SSAT Tutoring.
"Michael was accepted at both Schools we applied for. Thank you very much & please note that we think Tracey did an amazing job with Michael. She is a great teacher! We are moving to Miami on June 15th and Michael is very excited to go to Miami Country Day...Floridas best private school! Thanks Again!"
“Catherine has been with BSS this past two years and has blossomed in that enviorment.
“Cole will be starting UCC in the fall and is very excited about his choice. We were very happy with the PREPSKILLS program and of the course the results. We will look to do the same for Jake in the fall of 2009 when he enters grade six. I am reviewing the requirements for entering UCC in both Math and French and may call you for a review session in Math."
“We have been successful and both Gereon and Constantin have been accepted at Mulgrave School. Thanks a lot again also to Meghan, she did a great job."
“My son attended PREPSKILLS® SSAT workshop and PREPWRITETM two years ago. Not only has he improved academically, he has gained confidence and familiarity in taking the SSAT exam as well as private school application/interview process. He has told me that he enjoyed the PREPSKILLS® sessions because he felt challenged by his peers and that the discussions were interesting. He felt he had learned a lot from the sessions. Now, two years later, he asked if he could take a PREPSKILLS® program again in the summer while normally he would hate tutorials of any sort. He sure knows what is good for him!"
"Our son received early acceptance from St. Andrew’s College and St. Thomas of Villa Nova, thank you PREPSKILLS® Your cooperation in working around our busy schedule was very much appreciated. We couldn’t have done it without you!"
"Thank you, PREPSKILLS® for preparing our son in the summer for his SSATs and for referring us to St. Michael’s College School – our son is really looking forward to going in September."
"I'm glad to inform you that my daughter was accepted to UTS. It's a big achievement for her and she is very proud and happy about the result of her efforts. All our family would like to thank you and your wonderful colleagues for exceptional tutoring! Many thanks and best regards from our daughter!"
"My son has been accepted to the school of his choice, St. Michael’s College School. As a matter of fact he was accepted to all 3 schools that he applied for. As a parent I found that not only did PREPSKILLS assist him in doing well on the SSAT Exam but it gave him great confidence during the school interviews. I have also noticed an overall improvement in everything from his essay writing to his general school assignments. Thank you and once again we have no problem in recommending PREPSKILLS to any child looking to improve themselves."
"I chose PREPSKILLS® because of the professionalism of the organization and the confidence in knowing that my son would be prepared to the best of your ability. The practice SSAT test was great too. I would recommend your service and use it again if needed."
