CLOSE THE GAP
AT A GLANCE
We are unique in several ways. We start working with young students, as young as the 4 th grade, and we keep working with them until they go to college. Our curriculum includes learning a 2,000-word college vocabulary, from our own seven vocabulary lists. In fact, we produce all of our own study materials. Having a
large college-level vocabulary is a vital preparation for the SAT. Another major focus is math. We work at getting our younger students ahead in their math classes, and we help students enter the highest math classes, starting in 6 th grade. By staying in the advanced math classes, students will be properly trained for SAT math. Advanced math is also a vital adjunct to AP science classes in high school. Colleges take advanced track students more seriously. We provide free weekly math tutoring throughout the year.
