On-Demand Tutoring! Limited hours available starting January 14.

At First Choice Prep, we believe in Choice. Not Chance.

We whole-heartedly support every student on their academic journey. It’s a promise we make to every family. Whether that’s prepping for the next big test, getting some extra help with a tricky concept, boosting knowledge with enrichment or preparing for a high school or college admissions, we’re in your corner… to increase your choices, and not leave big academic moments up to chance.

How Do We Deliver On Our Promise?   

Building The Foundation

For tutoring, students build the foundational skills necessary to achieve success throughout their academic journey, exploring areas for growth while increasing proficiency and mastering skills. We’re content experts in a number of subjects and we’ll help our students master the content from the ground up.

For college consulting, we work together to set student goals, create a road map to success and establish a competitive student profile. In tandem, we develop reachable college lists and work together through the college application process, essays, interviews and everything in between.

Applying The Skills

For tutoring, we utilize data to teach students, reviewing past problems and internally curated material to continue building skills in a nurturing environment. Our tutors work tirelessly to get to to know each of our student’s individual needs and personalize learning to fit those needs through every lesson.

For college consulting, we guide students through a proven timeline and process while ensuring students own the next steps and action items. For essay development, we allow the students voice to drive the narrative to develop their writing skills and tell their story.

Testing And Adapting

Throughout tutoring, students practice newly internalized skills in a simulated testing environment to build confidence and mastery.  This is beneficial to both their academic journey and towards success in higher learning.

Our college consulting curriculum depends on continuous one on one check ins to discuss and revise academic and collegiate goals. We continuously assess students’ interests as well as general college admissions trends to adjust and adapt our admissions strategies to yield success for students.

Through monthly check ins and guidance around course selection, extracurricular activities, volunteerism, and work experience, students develop a strong profile for college selection and applications.
  • Our College Application Advising focuses on students’ junior and senior year, with college list development and a structured timeline and process for completing college applications, essays, recommendation letters, interviews and more.  We work side by side with students to ensure everything is completed and submitted on time, and continue our support through the transition to college.

We are so happy with our experience at First Choice Prep. Our daughter was finally able to achieve the ACT score she had dreamed of and we are thrilled. We will 100% use FCP again with our son.

First Choice Prep is awesome. They have tutored three of my children who have gone on to great schools (Yale, Harvard and Stanford). They still stay in contact with my children and are available to help at the college level too.

James speaks in a way that makes kids ‘hear’ him. He was easy to talk to, and tailored the verbal reviews to my son’s math brain. He went up 330 SAT points.
