Expert Guidance, Personalized for Your Student
Your journey with Summit begins with a personalized consultation with your Program Director, who takes the time to understand your student’s unique needs and goals. From there, they design a tailored tutoring program, carefully matching your student with a compatible, experienced tutor who fits their learning style.
But our support doesn’t stop there. Your Program Director will monitor progress, provide ongoing guidance, and check in regularly to ensure the program stays on track. After each tutoring session, you’ll receive a detailed lesson recap email so you’re always informed about your student’s progress.
With our concierge-style approach, parents stay engaged, and student success remains at the heart of every tutoring program.
"Three months ago I never would have believed that I could score 700 on the reading section. I wholeheartedly believe that my success can mainly be attributed to your tutoring; thank you so much for your help!"
Tim D., Student
"My daughter’s score increased over 100 points from her first practice test to her most current one. Her tutor is very helpful and explains everything so it’s easy to understand."
Lisa T., Parent
"My son's tutor was excellent! He quickly established a positive relationship with him and did a great job of targeting the 'high value' areas for improvement on both the math & verbal sections. He also did a nice job of assigning the 'right' amount of follow-up homework that focused on areas of need vs. covering all the bases."
Katie D., Parent
"Our son's tutor significantly helped him improve his score on the SAT. He particularly needed help with his math score and this was accomplished"
Alexis B., Parent
"Our tutor is the best out there! He knows and understands the SAT test inside and out and has been able to communicate the best working strategies to help our son achieve his best score. His personality is a perfect fit for our shy son too. He is outgoing, enthusiastic and encouraging about our son's potential while also being realistic and sincere."
Karen L., Parent
"My son had an excellent experience with his tutor. He came up with a solid plan for preparing my son to take the SAT in late March and then quickly pivoted when our son needed to take the test sooner than planned. From the first session, they established an easy rapport. Our son mentioned that his tutor taught him concepts in English that were entirely new to him. I appreciated the thoughtful and detailed post session summaries, which kept me in the loop while allowing my son to take the lead in managing his work between sessions."
Julie G., Parent

When Should You Take the SAT?
Choosing the right SAT test date is an important step in your student’s test prep journey. We recommend allowing 10–16 weeks of preparation leading up to test day. Since most students take the SAT two to three times to maximize their scores, a well-planned timeline can make all the difference.
SAT Test Date Options
National SAT Test Dates
The SAT is offered multiple times a year on national test dates. Planning ahead ensures your student can prepare effectively and take advantage of multiple testing opportunities.
School Day SAT
Some schools offer the SAT on designated weekdays through The College Board’s fee-based School Day SAT program. Check with your student’s school to see if this option is available.
How to Register
To register for an SAT test date, your student must create an account on The College Board website and select their preferred test date and location.
By planning ahead and choosing the right test date, your student can approach the SAT with confidence!
