Highland Tutoring FAQ
Highland, Utah, has a population of approximately 16,000. Located just 30 miles from Salt Lake City, it is part of the Provo-Orem metropolitan area. The city got its name due to the resemblance of the Highlands of Scotland.
Ranked number five in the state, Lone Peak High School is located in the Alpine School District. The school offers Advanced Placement courses and exams. One way to potentially improve on that important exam is by connecting with a private Highland tutor who has both in-home and online tutoring experience in instruction for test prep. Skilled in-person or online Highland tutors might help students get ahead in their courses or test prep with one-on-one tutoring sessions. A mere 30 miles away is Salt Lake City, home to multiple colleges and universities, including the University of Utah, Western Governors University, and Westminster College.
