"Dalby Tutoring is the students' choice for SAT preparation," said Kate Dalby, instructor and company vice-president. She has been involved in SAT prep tutoring (http://www.dalbytutoring.com/) since 1985, after graduating magna cum laude from SUNY Albany, giving her over twenty years of test preparation experience.
When asked why students should go with Dalby Tutoring, co-founder and company president Rick Dalby stated, "We are the top-rated SAT preparation course in the DC area according to the Washington Checkbook." The popular consumer guide, using various survey methods, rated Dalby Tutoring's SAT prep classes at the top of the list in the categories of student improvement, student enjoyment, amount of individual attention given to students, and the quality of the instructors.
The SAT prep tutoring scholarship offered by the company covers the cost of class time as well as instructional materials, including the College Board's The Official SAT Study Guide for the New SAT. The class is grouped by math ability and limited in size to ten students. A three and a half hour diagnostic pre-test is required up to two weeks before the beginning of the course.
