1. Mail Payments (Make checks payable to Beechwood ACT Prep.)
Do you register me for the ACT?
No. You must register yourself for the ACT via the act.org website. We do not register you because (1) your personal information is too sensitive for us to collect. ALWAYS protect your personal information! (2) Although we could guide you through the process, we don't want to take class time registering you - it is quite lengthy -and we want to get started teaching CONTENT and STRATEGIES right off the bat.
When should I take your class?
We prefer that you take the ACT at least once during high school prior to taking our course in orderto get a recent baseline score; however, you can take our classes without having taken an official ACT test.
Do non-Beechwood students attend your classes?
Yes. In fact, they make up most (if not all) of the class, so you will be in good company with, mostlikely, students from your school and from other schools in Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. We’ve even had kids from Tennessee, Indiana, West Virginia, and Iowa take our classes! You just never know whom you will meet in ACT Prep Class!
What are your class sizes?
Class sizes can be hard to predict, but we try to keep classes as small as possible. Ideally, we shoot for 30 students per class.
How long are your sessions/classes?
Each session is comprised of six (6) classes. Each class lasts four (4) hours with a ten-minute breakin the middle. Depending on the number of registered students, we split our classes into two (2) sections; when one class is covering English and Reading, the other class is covering Math and Science. The classes are then flipped so that all four subjects are taught.
Do you offer a guarantee that my score will increase?
Yes. It doesn’t happen often, but if your COMPOSITE score does not increase after taking our classes, we will stick with you until it does! We don’t provide a money-back guarantee, but we will invite youback to our class FREE OF CHARGE if your composite score does not improve. Please note that you must attend EVERY class to take advantage of this offer.
What kind of score increase can I expect to see?
We are sure that you understand that we cannot blindly predict or guarantee how much your score will increase, especially without knowing anything about you as a student. An increase in score depends on the following:
Do you offer makeup classes if I miss a class?
No. We do not make-up classes that you miss. We will be more than glad to provide the notes and materials from the missed class on the day of the class you miss. Students are expected to makeup this work prior to attending the next class.
Who are the instructors for Beechwood ACT Prep?
Julie Rash, who teaches the English and Reading sections, is a 25-year veteran, full-time Englishteacher and teaches English III, AP Language/Composition, and Remedial Reading/English forCollege Readiness at Beechwood High School.
What exactly do you teach in your prep classes?
Through a tremendous amount of analysis of official released ACT tests, Mrs. Rash and Mrs. Gatens have pared down what content students need to know to be successful on the English and Math tests. After practicing ACT skills with hundreds of hours with thousands of students, Mrs. Rash and Mrs. Gatens have chosen the most effective strategies to sharpen the skills to be successful on the Reading and Science tests.
