ACT Prep with Dr. Yo
Your child may not need more ACT practice.
They may need better ACT strategy.
If your child is taking practice tests, studying on their own, or working through ACT prep materials — but their score isn’t where they want it to be — more practice isn’t always the answer. They need to know where they’re losing points, how to approach the test more effectively, and what to work on next.
2-hour live sessions, personalized to your child. Choose 1, 5, or 10 classes.
Don’t just take more practice tests
Find out where the points are going.
Your child may know they’re struggling. But do they know why?
- A Missing questions they should know
- B Running out of time
- C Struggling with a particular section
- D Making the same mistakes repeatedly
- E Unsure how to approach certain question types
- F Stuck around the same score
Dr. Yo works with your child to identify what needs attention and then focus the session where it can help most.
The goal isn’t simply to do more ACT questions.
It’s to unlock the score for their dream college.
ACT prep built around your child
Not a one-size-fits-all class.
If your child already knows what they want to work on, they can bring that focus into the session. If they’re unsure, Dr. Yo can help identify areas to prioritize.

The results speak for themselves.
She got a 34 composite, with 36 reading, 36 english, 33 science, and 32 math… Your class was definitely helpful. It definitely motivated her to do all those practice tests in a way she wouldn’t have done on her own.Parent
After taking the test this past month, I scored a 33 composite which is now finally allowing me to seriously consider all of the colleges I am interested in… I feel that without the tips, tricks, and advice you gave me this probably would not have been possible.Ben S., Student
Hi Dr. Yo! I wanted to let you know I got a 31 composite on the ACT and I am SO happy (and so are my parents…whoa!). Thank you so much for helping me get there!Catherine E., Student
I just want to say thank you for helping me get a 32 on the ACT and a 2200 on the SAT! I really couldn’t have done it without your help and advice and I am now so much more confident about and excited for college!Andreea D., Student
These are individual student results, not guarantees. Each student’s starting point, goals, and results are different.
