This three-hour seminar will cover the ACT, with tips and tricks to maximize your score

Through studying more than a dozen ACT tests and working with dozens of students, we have distilled out the essence of what students need to know to perform well, what common mistakes can be recognized and avoided, and what additional methods can be applied to handle the trickiest and most confusing problems.

​

We demystify the test. Attend this seminar to maximize your ACT score.

Adam Wells is a proven educator with a track record of helping students succeed at the ACT and SAT

Adam graduated high school as a National Merit Scholar and Valedictorian of GHS, then got his Bachelor's Degree from the University of Pennsylvania, an Ivy League university. In addition to his full-time tutoring business, he has taught both English and Math in the classroom, and has worked in education and ACT test prep for more than 12 years. He has designed ACT curricula for local high schools, and for the last two years has taught ACT prep for the local GEAR UP program.

​

Students in big cities have access to test prep programs that haven't previously been available in SE New Mexico

Students in Albuquerque, for example, can choose from at least three test prep programs that give them a leg up on their standardized tests.  Mr. Wells was trained by a nationwide test prep program and combines that training with years of practical experience to offer students from Roswell, Dexter, Hagerman, Artesia, and Ruidoso the same advantages.

Standardized tests have patterns that can be recognized and exploited

Students, parents, and teachers often believe that there is no productive way to prepare for standardized exams like the ACT besides the standard course of schoolwork.  But the ACT consistently tests particular skills in specific ways, and Mr. Wells can share his expertise to make any student more effective on the test.

The next ACT date is:
APRIL 13th

Students can register for the above test through March 8th at no additional charge, or register during the late registration period at additional cost through March 25th.

   For those students that took the opportunity to attend [Adam's] sessions, these students had an increase of 3 to 5 points on their second ACT exam. In some cases, some students that applied the information provided by Mr. Wells have received a full college tuition based on ACT scores.
