Is your child ready for the challenges and competitive nature of education in the 21st century?
From the University of California to the Ivy League establishment, it is a fact: there are fewer spaces available for an increasingly large pool of prep school and college applicants.
Make certain your child is not left out!
For those who do not know us, we have been assisting students in the San Gabriel Valley area for over nearly twenty-five years, concentrating on homework assistance, test preparation and college application counseling. In recent years there has emerged a rash of tutoring businesses that have attempted to duplicate our programs, with very limited success. Our instructors, from some of the top universities in the United States and the world, have a wealth of experience in preparing students for school and examinations -- especially in a small group environment.
We offer a full range of tutoring and counseling services for students from second grade through high school. Our expertise with the Common Core, PSAT, SAT I & II, Advanced Placement (AP), and College Essay & Application programs have enabled our students to attain their academic and personal targets on a regular basis. Our college placement results reflect the superiority of our program: over 99% of our seniors who apply to the University of California are offered admission -- for Ivy League Schools, Stanford and MIT, the rate is an industry-leading 85%.
Enroll now to secure a brighter future for your child by developing the tools necessary for success.
In a world filled with dislocation, financial pressure, and uncertainty, the academic world is in a forced transition to distance learning. While unquestionably a setback for our community and nation, it is possible to take advantage of opportunities for your child’s personal growth. The new “normal”, distance learning, is the future of education. But do you have the experience to home-school your child through his or her entire academic experience? Our personalized classes provide superior flexibility to accommodate all levels and manner of academic preparation. SGVA’s program director, a Harvard graduate, has had over twenty-five years of experience preparing students of all backgrounds. For more detailed information or private consultation, please feel free to call or visit in person.
This course has been designed for high school seniors who seek clarity and structure in the college application process, and includes a comprehensive review of all facets of obtaining admission to UCs and Ivy League schools, as well as other top-tier institutions. We offer individual supervision and intensive guidance for our students, and provide close direction to the art of crafting essays, choosing schools and proofing and filing college applications before submission deadlines. Limited to private sessions with our Program Director. Screening required prior to enrollment.

"Having had the privilege of knowing Curtis...as a mentor ...I can attest that he is the sort of instructor who really cares about students' learning and will put in the extra effort to ensure that each pupil gets the most out of his classes. Regardless of the size of the group, he always knows the learning styles and quirks of each and every student he teaches. Curtis does care about students succeeding on exams, but he goes beyond to create a fun atmosphere, all while cultivating the sort of critical thinking skills and cultural knowledge base that helps students excel at every level of education."
D. Lin - SMHS, Harvard Class of 2011.
"...thanks Curtis for all your help with my college applications, essays, etc. I had so much fun in your classes and learned more than I ever expected to ...in the SAT classes"
J. Mau - SMHS, Stanford Class of 2011
"Thanks Curtis for making SAT tutoring less of a nightmare and more of a fun, time-worthy experience. Thanks to your dedication and encouragement, I completely OWNED the writing section with an 800!!! Now I have bragging rights."
