Why College Prep Tutors?
College Prep Tutors' proven track record is the result of our CORE VALUES that have guided us for the past 20 years:
​​​​
Expertise: We only hire professional educators with advanced degrees and extensive experience working with tweens, teens and young adults.
​
Personalized Attention: CPT is privately owned and managed by Dr. Donna Risolo who oversees all aspects of each client's tutoring and college admissions coaching experience; while other firms have scaled, CPT has remained boutique and bespoke by design.
A Dynamic Approach: We are more than just tutors; we are educators and experts in our fields, who are constantly honing our test prep strategies and college admissions methods to ensure the best outcomes for our students. Dr. Donna stays abreast of the trends in college admissions, ensuring that her guidance will yield the best possible outcome for each client.
Lifetime Relationships: We cultivate long-standing relationships with the students and parents we serve, taking clients through the entire admissions cycle of test preparation, college selection, essay writing, application preparation, scholarship negotiation, and we continue to support our CPT students in college, when its time to apply for that first job, and with graduate school applications.
