CollegePrep Workshops

 Be Prepared for College!

Our CollegePrep Workshops are only held during the summer months. They are four days long. We start with a 4 hour session, to get through the essentials, and follow that up with weekly 3 hour sessions which build upon the initial foundation. Each class has lots of drills and practice, to reinforce their new skills. Students are expected to practice at home on their own, following a provided lesson plan.

The CollegePrep program was designed for college bound seniors. They also are useful for high-school students, and students that are already in college and looking to do better.

The CollegePrep program is longer than our FasTrack and TestPrep programs. It covers the same reading skills, but goes into deeper study for the note-taking and retention skills. It also has a special program for dealing with more difficult readings, such as those found in University textbooks.
