The TestTakers Philosophy

When Frank Pomilla founded TestTakers in 1983, he started with just 8 students. Although our program has grown dramatically, we ensure that all of our courses provide the same individual attention, customized help, and personal connection that made those original eight students the first TestTakers fanatics. We have grown almost exclusively through word-of-mouth recommendations, and we would much rather invest in ways to provide the best education possible than in slick advertising campaigns.

We believe the SAT and ACT essentially test skills that all students can develop. By teaching our students the test-taking techniques necessary to tame the test, we help them refine their reasoning processes and see the keys hidden within each question. Our methods, materials, and teachers are the best around—and we have the highest score improvements to prove it—but we truly believe the key to our success is the personal relationship we build with every student.

The best way to learn about Test Takers SAT classes and private SAT tutoring is to pick up the phone or drop an email to one of our Site Directors. They will be happy to speak to you personally about the TestTakers experience.
