For parents

Why Families Choose AhmedPrep

Preparation in Astoria, Queens built around how each student learns, with clear communication for the family at every step.

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.
