About Rick

Rick [Last name], founder and tutor. Name and scores pending

I scored in the 99th percentile on the tests I teach, and I am the person in every session. There is no roster and no "whoever is free." The tutor who reads your diagnostic is the tutor at the whiteboard in week fourteen.

Before Giant Prep I built an adaptive SAT practice app because I was tired of watching students do a thousand random questions and plateau. The app and the tutoring do the same thing: find the handful of question types costing you points, and fix those.

I will tell you in the first hour what a realistic target looks like. If I don't think I can move your score, I'll say so and point you somewhere better.

To recordRick to camera at his desk, window light, 2x lens. Script: who he is, his own scores, why he reads every diagnostic himself, and the one sentence he says to every parent in the first hour ("I'll tell you the ceiling before you pay for the climb"). No music. One take if possible.

How a session runs.

Before

The test from last week

You took a proctored full-length test. Rick has read every miss and sorted them by question type before you sit down.

First 10 minutes

The pattern

What moved, what didn't, and which two question types this session is for. No warm-up worksheets.

40 minutes

The work

One question type at a time, on the whiteboard, from easy to hard, until you can say the move out loud before you start.

Last 10 minutes

Next week

What the app will serve you between sessions, what to redo from the test, and when the next proctored test is.

Start with the free first hour.

SAT and ACT students: one free hour with Rick. Every other test starts with a proctored diagnostic and a one-hour debrief.

To recordRick to camera: when he replies, how the first hour or the diagnostic runs, what to bring. Same desk and light as the other videos.
