History

Established in 2011.

A+ Test Prep emerged from a home-​based tutoring business into a full-​fledged locally-​owned business that is proud to support the educational needs of students and their families. With over twenty years’ experience in test prep from its content-​creation side to the grading side and an 18-​year career in NC public schools, the founder has herself coached students to perfect and near-​perfect scores on the SAT and ACT and has assisted students in securing hundreds of thousands in scholarship dollars.
