1:1 online tutoring

If you’re looking for something completely tailored to your student’s specific learning outcomes and schedule, 1:1 tutoring may be best. Learn what you can expect in a session by watching the intro video below or contact me to book a free consultation.

While every student is different, I typically recommend 10-12 weeks of weekly tutoring sessions (75 minutes each) prior to the first test date.

online tutoring pods

Tutoring pods are small groups (max of 5 students) that learn together over the course of 8 weeks. Students are grouped together by previous PSAT, SAT, or diagnostic SAT scores, with particular importance placed on math scores.

Sessions run for 90 minutes over an 8-week period.

Students may select 1-2 private 1-hr tutoring sessions as an add-on to the pod sessions.

Pod Tutoring vs. Private Tutoring

UPCOMING PODS

2027 March SAT and/or School Day SAT (starting the week of January 3rd)

There are two pod groups that will be grouped by math score. Overall score is taken into consideration as well. Annick may recommend or require 1-2 private sessions to students if they fall well outside of the median verbal score for the pod group.

Pod classes are currently scheduled for Sunday evenings, beginning January 3rd.

online courses

Group courses are a cost-effective way to approach prep. I typically recommend group courses for high-aiming students who need just a little structure and accountability but who are otherwise self-motivated. Group courses can also be a good fit for students with more general tutoring goals (e.g. building familiarity with the test and content rather than attaining a specific score).

Prospective group course students must have at least an 1150+ on a recent SAT or PSAT. If it’s been more than 6 months since the PSAT or a recent SAT score is not available, students may take a diagnostic to place into the course.

Group course sizes vary, depending on the type of course offered. Please see the Courses page for upcoming offerings.

school courses

I offer onsite school courses in the Ellsworth and Mount Desert Island area, as well as online school courses. Since 2018, I have designed and taught SAT prep courses for the Portland School District, Maine Coast Waldorf School, and Mount Desert Island High School. Each SAT prep course is designed specific to the needs of the students and the budget of the school or families. Please inquire directly about hosting a course at your school.

Contact Annick

  • Annick provided an SAT Prep course for our current juniors, in preparation for the April SAT.  The set-up of the course was seamless, as Annick was organized and communicative.  When the course began, Annick was flexible and considered the needs of all students.  She showed empathy and compassion when dealing with each unique situation.  She asked for feedback and gave students the opportunity to share their own insights, perspectives, and opinions.  Annick was incredible to work with and is now considered a part of our guidance family.  We can't wait for her next course offering to begin!

  • My daughter entered the SAT prep process fearful of being able to sit for long testing periods and nervous about how well she would do. Annick not only made her comfortable with both concerns but also made her a better and more confident student in school. Her grades improved and she became more comfortable with her ability to problem solve and complete her school work. So not only did she surpass her SAT goals but she also has done even better at school. So worth the time and money!

  • There is no one better for test prep than Annick! She worked with my daughter several years ago and when it came time for my son's test prep, she was our first and only call. Not only is Annick extremely knowledgeable in all things SAT but she is a gifted teacher, knowing exactly how to reach each student no matter how diverse his/her needs. My kids are very different learners and Annick adjusted her techniques to fit their tool house of skills. We are so thankful to have found Annick and would recommend her wholeheartedly.
