Tutoring options
Pick the format that fits your family.
In person
Face-to-face instruction for families in the tri-state area.
Remote
The same quality tutoring in an online format via Zoom.
Students working remotely will still get all physical materials delivered to their home.
The work
Teach the test content and the test decisions.
Students need content knowledge, but they also need to know what to do when the clock is running and the answer choices are designed to punish shallow thinking.
Find the point leaks
Identify the student's biggest losses: content gaps, pacing, careless errors, section strategy, or stamina.
Build the missing skill
Teach the grammar, math, reading, science reasoning, and test habits that create better decisions.
Practice under pressure
Use timed work and review so students learn how to execute when the test gets uncomfortable.
Real ACT® test forms
Real ACT® test forms > mock ACT® look-alikes.
Derby ACT Prep is a licensed participant in the NTPA ACT Affiliate Tutor Program and a Licensed Provider of Official ACT® Content. This means students use actual released ACT® test forms from previous years, including forms as recent as the April 2026 ACT® test, for practice testing, not "mock" tests that fail to replicate the actual ACT®.
Why it matters
Practice should expose students to authentic ACT® structure, wording, timing, scoring, and difficulty.
