Our competitors with lower instructor standards often claim that teachers with high scores do not necessarily make the best instructors. We couldn’t agree more, and that is why we do not hire many of the qualified applicants we interview. We also look for teachers who can patiently, effectively, and humorously explain the ideas presented in our SAT course, people who can interact well with others in a classroom setting, and those who truly enjoy working with teenagers. Finding instructors like this is not easy, and that’s why we offer one of the highest starting salaries in the industry. In addition, we put our instructors through a rigorous training program before they ever set foot in a real class.

We recognize that the instructor will have a tremendous effect on the class and we take instructor selection and preparation very seriously. Each day students come to our teachers and say, “I want to score in the 2000s.” With our hiring standards and extensive training, our instructors can confidently say, “All right, here’s what it takes and here’s how you can do it.”
