College Test Prep Classes to Be Offered for First Time at Bronxville Adult School

laurawokingwstudentsformatted

Aug. 17, 2011:  Wouldn't it be nice not to have to drive your kids to test prep classes or pay for expensive in-home tutors?  And wouldn't it be nice to know they were receiving their tutoring from someone mentioned in the New York Times as "knowing a million test prep tricks"?

The Bronxville Adult School (BAS) is offering, for the first time, test prep classes for Bronxville and local area students.  In conjunction with WilsonPrep, the BAS will be offering classes for the three major tests--PSAT, ACT, and SAT--allowing students to prepare for these exams right in their community.

The classes will be held at the Bronxville School on Tuesday nights this fall from 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm.  First up will be a five-week PSAT course, starting September 13, followed by a six-week ACT course and then an eight-week SAT course.  Students can register for any or all of the three.  Enrollment includes free WilsonDailyPrep, a set of online daily questions to further aid preparation.

The courses will be led by WilsonPrep of Chappaqua, recognized as an innovative and dynamic leader in preparation for college admissions exams.  Founder Laura Wilson has authored numerous test prep books (including Write the SAT Essay Right!:  10 Secrets to Add 100 Points to Your Score) and has tutored for more than 20 years.

Wilson feels that test prep is all about building self-esteem.  "A good test prep teacher motivates through dynamic, engaging lessons," she states, "so that students can go into the exam and answer with confidence.  Any student with practice and the right instruction can improve significantly.  I hold students accountable to daily and weekly practice because I know it is the practice and utilization of strategies taught in class that produce results."  WilsonPrep says that it has produced those results consistently since its founding in 2001.

To get a good idea of what is offered and to have your questions answered, meet founder Laura Wilson on Tuesday, September 6, from 7:00 pm to 8:00 pm in the Bronxville School multipurpose room.

Registration is limited and can be done online at www.bronvilleadultschool.org, by mail, or by calling the BAS office at 914-793-4435, Monday to Friday, 9:00 am to noon.
