Not from the KC Area?

Get Smarter Prep has worked with thousands of students, but not all of those students are local. Our tutors are equipped to help students virtually as well as in person. If you aren't from the area, we offer Online Private Tutoring to help you get the score you need for the school you want.

Online Academic Mentorship

The learning process has shifted over the last couple years, and students are feeling overwhelmed. We want to help students identify their learning style and apply that information to areas like: role taking, general test prep, homework planning, etc.

Online Private Tutoring

The most custom approach when it comes to the ACT. This 1-1 Tutoring is a perfect fit for students who are looking for the highest increase in the ACT score, students who have a gap (6+ points) between their sub-scores, or students who have a busy schedule.

Most students have timing issues on the ACT. During Flex Tutoring, students can complete timed drills that fit what they hope to achieve on their official exam and receive feedback and guidance before and after the drill.

ACT Accomodations

At Get Smarter Prep, we understand some students may have testing accommodations to be used on the ACT. Our tutors are happy to allow those accommodations with proof of official ACT accommodations, IEP documentation or 504 plan.

ACT Test Accomodations

We will honor those accommodations on the ACT Practice Test, Midterm, and Final as well as how our tutors instruct their students with official documentation.

We want what’s best for our students, which is why ask for documentation (official email from ACT) prior to testing or tutoring.

If you don’t have an official email from ACT yet, we will make exceptions for current accommodations in high school such as an IEP or 504 plan.

Please see the ACT Policy for Requesting Accommodations at ACT.org as well as the ACT Accommodations Eligibility Requirements.
