Elite, Premium, or Professional Tutoring?
All Bell Curves tutors have extensive training, experience, access for their students to all our materials, and use the same fundemental approaches and strategies. Our tutors are drawn from our pool of classroom teachers and have all been working with us for at least a year. The primary distinction between tuor levels is experience
Elite Tutors
In order to qualify as one of our Elite Tutors, a tutor must have taught the SAT with exceptional results for at least 10 years, teach other standardized tests, participate in the creation of instructional materals, and train new teachers. Our elite tutors are individuals who have chosen careers in test preparation and have over the years taught thousands of students, trained hundreds of teachers, and analyzed and written scores of questions.
