All Dugan Prep tutors use a boutique SAT textbook designed by founder Tim Dugan.
The book holds 108 Chapters, one for each problem type.
Each chapter includes easy, medium, and difficult problems from previous exams.
Textbook only available at Dugan Prep.
Textbook included in price of tutoring.
Questions on the ACT and SAT follow a pattern.
We discovered 108 categories of questions that students will see on the Reading, Writing, and Math sections.
Our tutors teach students how to recognize every question in every category.
Students will be taught the exact technique to solve each problem type.
Techniques will be reinforced by in-class example and homework, with one chapter dedicated to each one of the 108 categories.
Instead of guessing or hacking together a solution, they will know exactly what to do for each problem.
The Socratic Method was developed by Socrates of Athens. Following his method, everything we teach is presented in question and answer form. First, we teach students notes, facts, and methods to solve problems. But after they learn, we challenge kids to explain how they solved each problem. We ask “why did you make this decision here?” to create a deep understanding. Our notes are also available online in Q & A form for students to quiz themselves for homework.
“I worked to create practice SAT exams from scratch to simulate the real exam. So I understand just how testmakers create the test, and I understand how to help kids beat it.” -Founder Tim Dugan
For the toughest cases, we use a Guided Practice SAT.

Students must announce how to deal with the problem.
