PreACT Tutoring FAQ

Writing skills
High school preACT tutoring gives you the chance to feel comfortable with the structure of the test. Working with a preACT tutor allows you to practice test questions that resemble the same structure found on the ACT. You can also practice using the vocabulary that will be found on the test. If a student feels comfortable with the structure of the test, they are less likely to miss a question due to misunderstanding. Working with a tutor can also help build the student's confidence going into the test.
PreACT tutoring also allows you to practice the format of the ACT. Each core area of the test is allotted a certain time limit for a certain amount of questions. A timed test can bring anxiety towards students. By practicing timed tests, students are able to get a feel for how much time they have to answer each question.
