  • FAQs: PREPSKILLS

What is PREPSKILLS?

The PREPSKILLS® mission is to provide advanced preparation for students to be able to have endless opportunities. At PREPSKILLS®, we provide the highest quality of preparatory learning experiences that serve to help maximize individual potential, impart skills for leadership and inspire lessons in life long learning.

How can PREPSKILLS help my child?

THE BEST WAY TO PREPARE YOUR CHILD IS TO START WITH PREPSKILLS®. PREPSKILLS® prepares students for the admission tests, focusing on test-taking strategies, essay writing, and skill building exercises in math and language. We offer a unique and challenging program in which we strive to develop not only test-taking skills but also to build each student’s self esteem and confidence, thus enabling the student to reach his or her full potential. The program is designed to help students entering private/independent schools or American universities.

Why choose PREPSKILLS over other commercial products and tutoring services?

We are SSAT and SAT specialists, not generalists in academic tutoring. PREPSKILLS® goes beyond getting the high-test mark. We aid not only the students but also their families with the entire admissions process. We give students the tools and resources to build their confidence in their own academic skills. We teach test-taking skills, instead of simply content. Knowing geometry or vocabulary words isn’t good enough for most admission tests; you have to know how to apply the knowledge. Our Certified Teachers for SSAT programs and Expert Instructors for SAT will help students make the critical connection between the material learned in school and how to apply it on the test.  Learn more about Our PREPSKILLS Story.

How long are the courses?

Program length varies. Please contact the PREPSKILLS® office for details. Call 416.200.7728.

What materials and support will my child receive?

Students receive the full compliment of test preparation material. Materials include a course book, exercise books, practice tests, flashcards containing the most frequently used words on admission tests, and the COMPUTEST™ diagnostic. Students have access to on-line math and language resources. In addition, parents will receive progress reports after the diagnostic test and the PREPSKILLS®-simulation test. Upon completion of the course, PREPSKILLS® offers a simulated test; administered under “real test” conditions. The students find this experience to be the highlight of the course as strategies learned are reinforced and test-taking fears dispelled. Unique to PREPSKILLS® is a résumé and interview skills workshop for our SSAT students.  U.S. College and University Admission information seminar is a highlight for SAT students and we host several events to help families engage with Private Schools, Colleges and partners to network and navigate the admissions process. As a Canadian company we understand the Canadian requirements and how to transfer the Canadian curriculum knowledge to impart the skills necessary to maximize test scores. Our SSAT/SAT prep proprietary materials are specially developed with over 25 years experience in education.

Will my child be assigned homework?

Homework is designed to reinforce the content while improving the students’ application of strategies. Repeated practice is the key to success in order to reap the benefits of the course. PREPSKILLS® is primarily a training program, not a course of study. It is strongly advised that students complete all homework assignments prior to the next lesson. The commitment of both parent and student is essential. Remember, you only get out what you put in.

What are class sizes?

The pupil-teacher ratio is up to 12 students per class, with an average class size of 8 students. Our certified teachers provide individualized attention and tailor the curriculum to the student’s needs. Private in-home or online instruction is also available.

What are the teacher qualifications?

Our teachers are hand-picked enthusiastic, caring, and passionate educators! Most are Ontario certified teachers with Masters or PhD qualifications. Our instructors are dedicated and understand the needs of the students they teach. The objective of the PREPSKILLS educator is to motivate each student to reach their full potential through advanced preparation and ensure that students have endless opportunities! All teachers/instructors must attend PREPSKILLS® seminars, training and workshops. They are well versed in the PREPSKILLS® philosophy, curriculum, methodology and strategies.
