Description
About this course
This comprehensive and accelerated TACHS prep course is specifically designed for students who have a 90+ average and are aiming for top high school placements. With a curriculum that focuses on key test areas, students will receive targeted instruction that addresses their unique strengths and weaknesses. Through personalized feedback, detailed progress tracking, and rigorous practice exercises, they will have the opportunity to refine their skills and build confidence. The course is structured to provide an in-depth understanding of the TACHS exam, ensuring students are well-prepared to excel and gain a competitive edge in the high school admissions process.
At Tutoring by Christine, TACHS class sizes are capped at twelve students, allowing students to ask questions and to get one-on-one support from expert instructors; hours range from 20 to 30 of intensive training and consist of two to three full length practice tests (depending upon session chosen). Students will be taught with a variety of materials, all of which will be supplied to them.
Students enrolled in our test prep program will receive intensive training to successfully complete all parts of the exam. Not only will students review tactics and content in reading, written expression, mathematics, and general reasoning, but students will receive instructions and practice in time management strategies. This is critical as many of the tests that students take in traditional schools are no longer timed, and students are often lacking in this area because of this. Students will take a minimum of two, timed full-length practice tests as well as weekly math quizzes.
Each year we train over one hundred students for the TACHS exam. We are skilled to prepare all students: remedial students who may or may not have an IEP, general education students, and advanced students. We pride ourselves on the individual attention we give to ensure that each and every student is well prepared to achieve the goal of being offered a seat in the Catholic High School of his or her choice.
Students have received acceptances and scholarships to Catholic High Schools on Staten Island and Brooklyn. Part of Christine’s success is that her first three years as a teacher was spent in the Catholic School system. In fact, it was then that she first began prepping students for the TACHS test.
