We take score increases seriously and we believe that with our customized sessions and teaching strategies, any student can improve.
In fact, if a student completes a Basic, Skills, or Master program, including all homework and practice tests, we guarantee a score increase. And, if not, three sessions are on us!

"Both of our kids had great success with EC Tutoring in helping prepare for their SAT. Both times, EC did a terrific job of pairing my child with a tutor who matched their style and was able to connect. In each case, the tutor took an interest in their success and the progress was amazing. Highly recommend."
- Gwyn, Parent
"We received weekly updates about the progress in each session and the tailored goals for the next session. In the end, our son’s composite ACT score was 5 points higher than his practice ACT, with increases in the individual sections ranging from 2 to 9 points. We believe the coaching, the practice, and the overall test-taking skills gained from Educational Connections were instrumental to this improvement."

"Very impressed with this 1 on 1 tutoring. My daughter started with a 24 and is now up to a 35 in the ACT. She has yet to take the actual official test but I am confident she will do well. She needed to learn a lot of Math and grammar content/rules and her tutor was able to teach that to her in addition to testing strategies/timing -- filling in the gaps where school classes didn't cover well. Highly recommend."
