The Students

We find great success with students who consider themselves bad test-takers, and have not traditionally done well on standardized tests. Our methods also work well for students who are given testing accommodations for ADHD, dyslexia, and other learning differences.

About Us
John-Cochener-Headshots-BW-

Hi Guys!

I'm John, the founder of Academy Tutors. I've been tutoring since 2006, with a primary focus on SAT test preparation. My background includes a BA in Cognitive Science from Northwestern University, MA in Social Sciences from University of Chicago, plus a California teaching credential in Exam Mathematics from NDNU.
My background in Cognitive and Social Sciences plays an important part in my ability to connect with students and understand their frustrations with the test. Over the years, I've developed specific strategies for different types of learners and test takers.

FLEXIBLE COURSES FOR BUSY LEARNERS

Our courses are designed to fit with busy schedules and unpredictable lives of college-bound teenagers. Drop into our regularly scheduled group sessions when time allows. Add individual sessions as needed to cover challenging content.

Group Strategy Sessions

Regularly scheduled weekly sessions cover strategies for both sections of the SAT test. Each session is taught by our founder, John Cochener, who has coached SAT and similar tests since 2006. He is funny, engaging, and motivating; students end each session looking forward to the next.
