For current students of international schools
Middle School Support Course
Grade 6 – Grade 8
We offer support for the unique goals of international school students like "I want a deeper understanding of my lessons so that I can achieve high scores on my quizzes and tests," "I want to raise my GPA by 0.5 in half a year," or "I want to score a 90% or higher on the IGCSE/MAP test." Our international school graduate teachers will give careful guidance and support in everything from the basics to specialized topics. We also help students develop the ability to study independently.
High School Support Course
Grade 9 – Grade 12
We provide complete support for students to improve their grades and test-taking strategies for IB (International Baccalaureate), AP (Advanced Placement), A-levels, and other classes, and to improve aptitude test scores for the SAT, SAT II, ACT, TOEFL, etc. We also correct essays to be submitted when applying to universities, provide tips for filling out application forms, and provide guidance and support for any other necessary matters when applying to overseas and domestic universities.
