So you got the Math covered and you just need to boost your ELA score? Here’s the perfect class for you.
Five consecutive weeks taught by English & Language Arts licensed teachers who have in-depth knowledge of the students’ development. This course starts with short subject diagnostic test followed by explicit focus lessons, timed practice tests, short quizzes and homework for progress monitoring.
Some of the ELA concepts that the students have not learned in school yet will need to be front loaded (taught ahead of time) in anticipation of more difficult questions in the exam.
