Meet Tariq Ahmed

Diagnostic-based instruction
Every student starts with a diagnostic, so lessons target the skills that need work instead of a generic syllabus.
High-attention teaching
Small groups and one-on-one sessions mean the instructor sees each student's work, not just their final answers.
Direct instructor access
Families work directly with founder and lead instructor Tariq Ahmed, not a rotating call center.
Structured homework
Assignments follow each lesson and practice the exact skills that were taught.
Progress tracking
Practice sections and full-length tests are reviewed so the plan can be adjusted as the student improves.
Parent communication
Parents hear what was covered, what to practice next, and how the student is doing.
Free Sunday classes
Beginning January 2027, free live SHSAT and Digital SAT classes are both offered on the same every-other Sunday: SHSAT at 6:00–6:45 PM ET and Digital SAT at 7:00–7:45 PM ET. Open to any student who RSVPs.
