Specialties
At Main Line Test Prep and Tutoring, we have been tutoring children, teenagers and adults in various subjects and standardized test prep for over 15 years. We have helped students of varying skill levels (from grade school children to Rhodes Scholars) sharply boost their test scores. Our tutors are patient and make learning fun. Most importantly, we instill confidence in our students by making tough concepts easy to understand and apply.
How can you be sure your tutor knows what he is teaching if he hasn’t taken the test in decades? We don’t just teach the SAT, we take the SAT too!

Steve also took the September 2013 ACT, scoring in the 99th percentile with a score of 34. He also scored in the 99th percentile on all four sections (35 writing, 34 math, 35 reading, 33 science).
