Do you have any tutors?
No. This is a one-person operation. I may consider hiring employees, and vetting/training tutors in the future. Right now it's just a variable I'd rather not have to deal with. I'm a tutor myself, so if you absolutely need your child to work with a tutor you can contact me at simon@simontutors.com.
Did you create any of the assigned work yourself?
No. I quickly realized that would be a waste of time when there's already a ton of quality content already publicly available. I believe successful prep is all about practicing with high-quality materials and completing the work in the right order. Some workbooks are better used later than at the very beginning of the prep process.
Can I use this with another tutor?
Yes. All they need to know is the current assignment your child is working on and which questions they are having trouble with. The LMS is designed to outline the coursework. Individualized tutoring can only complement it. I cannot offer any recommendations on tutors however.
Do you offer group tutoring?
No, but as we approach the exam dates I will be organizing group mock exams for all Plus and Premium members.
Do we have enough time to prepare?
Yes... but the more they prep, the better they will feel on test day. The biggest indicator of success is the number of practice tests students complete. If they start the process too late, they may have to skip some of the foundational work.
When is the SHSAT?
Mid-October for most students, and in early November for students who are allotted additional time.
