The PSAT is a crucial step toward college readiness, and a chance for high-achieving students to earn National Merit recognition. We build content mastery and test-taking strategy that also lays a strong foundation for the SAT.
We work with students from Berkeley High, Albany High, Piedmont High, Head-Royce, and College Prep.
Book Your Free Consultation
Start with a free consultation. We learn your student's current ability level, target score, test date, schedule, and goals, then recommend the right path forward.
Your student is matched with an expert tutor who uses practice-test results to identify the weaknesses with the biggest potential impact on their score.
After focused practice and tutoring, we reassess progress, identify the next highest-impact opportunities, and repeat the cycle until your student reaches their goal.
We use full-length practice tests to see exactly where points are being lost.
Strategy built for students aiming at recognition and scholarships, targeting the areas that matter most.
The skills and habits your student builds now carry directly into strong SAT performance.
We continually test, measure what's changed, and refocus on the next highest-impact opportunities.
Best for students with a shorter timeline or a few specific areas to improve.
Best for most students who want enough time to build skills, practice, reassess, and improve across the full test.
Best for students starting earlier who want the most thorough preparation and time for multiple improvement cycles.
Not sure how much prep your student needs? We'll recommend the right plan during your free consultation.

I am a math teacher with a BS in Mathematics, MA in Education, and working on a Master's in Mathematics. For over 10 years, I have …
View Profile →We've been very impressed with the methodical, detailed tutoring by Ingo. He's been working with our son on his SAT and ACT prep. Extremely pleased so far!
My children have loved every tutor we have used from High Performance. The tutors have helped them excel in their studies in the classroom and helped them succeed on the AP, IB, ACT, and SAT exams!
I've worked with Victor for over a year and I'm beyond satisfied with his expertise. He explains very thoroughly, and in a way that sticks! All A's on tests I study with him for. Highly recommended for subject tutoring and SAT/ACT prep.
A belated thank you to Liz for a semester of math tutoring. She essentially taught all of Algebra Honors II. My child received an A in the class and scored in the 99th percentile of the PSAT. We could not have done it without your kindness and teaching skills!
David took the ACT and SAT each only once after his tutoring, and he was accepted to Harvard. We'd love your very best tutor for our youngest now.
We've used High Performance for two years. Victor helped my son with Chemistry, his grade went from a D to a B+, and he ended up liking the class. They've also tutored him in Algebra and for the ACT. They genuinely enjoy working with the kids, and the kids enjoy working with them!
Gopi is an amazing tutor, my son's ACT score went up 6 points, from a 28 to a 34. Thank you!
Calling High Performance Tutoring was one of our best decisions after treading water with other options for our daughter's ACT. My daughter jumped 6 points on the ACT and felt great about her improvement. We'd highly recommend them for a motivated student eager to improve!
I took their ACT prep course and they helped me raise my score from a 26 to a 33! They knew exactly what I needed to practice and my tutor was outstanding. When I saw my score I was nearly in tears. I'm confident the change will be the difference between acceptance and rejection at my top-choice college.
My daughter Hannah raised her ACT score from a 26 to a 33 after completing an intensive twelve-week training program with High Performance Tutoring. This score will open up so many doors for her!
Chase's grades are improving on tests, and he really likes Ingo, which is an added benefit! Great work, Ingo!
Ingo is incredible, and we are so grateful for all the hard work he does with our son. We feel so lucky to have him.
“Is PSAT prep really worth it?”
For a motivated student, absolutely. A strong PSAT (junior year) can qualify for National Merit, and the skills transfer straight to the SAT. Starting early means less cramming later. Book a free consultation to plan it out, and your first session is free too for new students.
