Since 1988, we have specialized in individualized, one-on-one, in-home test preparation.
We also partner with local schools and community centers to provide effective test-prep classes.
Whether it's one-on-one or in a classroom, we know that our instructors are the most important part of our students' success.
We seek to develop and support the best instructors in the profession.

Working with Summit
Summit's instructors are not only test prep experts, they are also enthusiastic teachers who are committed to helping each student reach his or her potential.
More than 80% of our clients choose us because of a word-of-mouth referral from friends, guidance counselors, school administrators
or educational consultants, and we believe that this is a direct result of the quality of our instructors. We're committed to providing the very
best service to every Summit family and we expect every instructor to exhibit this premium level of dedication and pride in service.
All of our tutors and teachers are provided with thorough training on Summit's curriculum and our approach to test preparation. They're given the
tools they need to tailor each program to the individual needs of each student. Customization and consistent assessment of student
progress is our way of making Summit tutoring programs successful. This approach applies to our classroom programs as well; we keep
class sizes small and focus on each student's performance throughout. Our industry-leading technology means you can spend more time teaching
and less time performing administrative tasks. The Summit extranet connects management, tutors, students, and parents so that you have
24-hour a day access to your client information, lesson notes, practice tests, calendar, payroll, and feedback.
We encourage our employees to teach to their strengths. Therefore, we allow you to specialize in math or verbal
instruction and to express a preference for either one-on-one or classroom programs. We especially value people who are comfortable with a range of
subjects and are willing to expand their tutoring capabilities. While we provide you with extensive training, we also encourage you to infuse every session
with your own personality and teaching style. Together, we deliver programs that result in student achievement and impressive score results.
Most Summit tutors work between 5-20 hours a week, according to their own schedules. Because you are meeting students in their homes,
sessions tend to happen in the afternoons, evenings, or on the weekends. While in-home tutoring schedules vary from student
to student, classroom programs have a fixed schedule. You are expected to travel within a 30-minute radius of your home or workplace and
must have reliable transportation.
Outstanding performance is rewarded with increased opportunities and increased compensation. In addition, Summit will provide
you with ongoing opportunities to become certified in all of our different test prep programs. We offer programs for the
SAT, ACT, PSAT, SAT Subject Tests, SSAT/ISEE and most academic subjects.
