We are really excited to start off our live ACT prep for those in Youtube land and for my Mason and Cincinnati, Ohio, scholars away for Christmas.
This eve's live ACT preparation (most of which being in Cincinnati) will focus on the English section, sharing the same techniques that have helped our pupils obtain up to perfect marks on their ACT tests.
A portion of the excitement has been not only our move of the test prep business office for the SAT and ACT to Cincinnati, but also the beginning of 10 years of service given by A+ Tutoring Test Preparation. We have now tutored 800 students in the South Florida and Greater Cincinnati areas!
We will begin by discussing the four different "tests" of the ACT, setting out with the English section, where we will decompose the 4 basic classifications we follow to assist our students get perfect marks.
Sure, thoughts are free. But proven teaching can set hard-working students free!
The strategy, obviously, contains greater than four simple pieces. We will also get into sentence structure and the types of questions that overlap between the English and Reading tests.
Though the English test is perhaps one of the most challenging and rule-oriented of all the tests on the ACT, understanding how to find verbs, subjects, and any conjunctions and other parts of speech gives us the foundation for knowing each of the other rules and recognizing other grammar scenarios.
We will refer to grammatical marks, modifiers, the different elements of verbs, and parallelism to catch mistakes, as we look for accuracy and efficiency in the sentences we are presented with. Syntax will be coped with as well, as we cover main idea and inferential reasoning questions.
Please interject with any questions as we show authentic ACT questions and how we deal with them. We love to hear your feedback and wish you the very best score imaginable as you give your ACT test prep your best shot!
Commemorating our 10th anniversary in SAT and also ACT preparation (most of which being in Cincinnati), A+ Tutoring/Test Preparation is happy to commemorate this celebration by distributing our finest exam preparation methods for the SAT and also the ACT test.

Some of the excitement is the move of our test preparation program for the SAT and ACT to just north of the Queen City in beautiful Cincinnati, where we landed 2 weeks earlier. So, we are basically handing out the bank, revealing the exam preparation methods that have assisted our 800 students acquire even excellent marks on the SAT and also ACT.
We will begin by handling the different "sections" of the ACT, beginning with the English area, where we shall break down the 4 fundamental components we use to assist our students to acquire excellent test scores. The sessions, obviously, have greater than 4 simple components, however some of the process is the structure we have to develop for our scholars to successfully finish our program.
Though the English is perhaps one of the most challenging and also rule-oriented of all the examinations on the ACT, we do finish our series of steps, including the best ways to locate verbs, the subjects, and also any conjunctions that might change subject/verb or pronoun/antecedent arrangements. We go on to syntactic marks, modifiers, the different aspects of verbs, and also parallelism to capture any more mistakes, as we check for precision of language and also the shortest was to get at the idea. Of course there are main idea and also inferential thinking components we have to additionally think about. We will certainly cover all these in our first session in the course, a video that will certainly focus on the ACT English.
In the 2nd session, we will certainly be looking at the ACT Math exam. Though there is a variety of challenging problems in the ACT mathematics area, the problems on the test have particular characteristics in common, and getting ready by complying with the system we've created we have found highly efficient in getting optimal marks. But, plainly students ought to capitalize on knowing their formulas and also the classroom lessons they have imbibed in their high school to maximize their planning for the exam. We start that Math test with underlining our mathematics concepts, setting up the problems, then filling out relationships, simplify/factoring, and then checking the operation and also substitution. It can not be emphasized sufficiently that students ought to have substantial prep work in mathematics concepts from fundamental maths to trigonometry or even pre-calculus succeed on the ACT exam preparation.
In the 3rd video lesson we will certainly be entering the Reading Comprehension exam, which is much more predictable than exactly what we discover in the English or Math examination (the substantially more content-driven examinations). When we start reading, we would like to start by underlining any context ideas in our inquiries, so we can know where and also the best ways to look for the solution. This then permits us to visit the correct part of the essay, so we can then locate the most pertinent material, underline it, and also put together those clues in order to make excellent predictions.
The Science test will certainly be the subject of our fourth video clip. In it we will certainly enter into the very same fundamental steps that we use in Reading, however we will certainly be categorizing into inferential thinking and also "discovering details" questions-- the questions that are concentrated on in the Science area. Instead of focusing on the correct part of the flow, many times we will certainly be filling in our charts, tables, and also pictures as much as possible so we can see all the relations we should.
Of course there is additionally the optional composition portion, which is its very own mark in the final score, and also we shall cover our fundamental 4 paragraph essay to any question we are given on the exam. Though there is a particular amount of feedback necessary in our test prep, our company believe we have found the above formula to be crucial in getting the very best results with the 800 students we have seen.
Our ACT mini-series will certainly be then adhered to by the steps we use to ready students for the SAT. The SAT exam preparation will certainly focus on the three fundamental sections of the exam test: Reading, Math, and also the Writing section (Grammar), however additionally the Composition, which is commonly constructed from three paragraphs.
We anticipate discussing the keys of the success we have actually had with pupils throughout Greater Cincinnati in Ohio. It hasn't already mattered where they were located: West Chester, Loveland, Mason, or Cincinnati itself, we have observed effort-taking youth with excellent potential increase their marks to sensational degrees. But the key part we have found is structure and also discipline. Simply put, students needthe clear focus of the steps just described. Kindly join us as we finish our move to Cincinnati near West Chester, OH. We look forward to it as we help young persons in Cincinnati and around the world improve their SAT and ACT exam prep.
