The biggest key to my PSAT and SAT success was having the Boost Your Score curriculum and face to face time with Ms. Mattox and Mrs. Walker. I learned how to better understand the different types of test questions and exactly how to approach them.

I worked with Mrs. Mary and Ms. Sandy during my junior year. As a result of my ACT score, I was accepted to Duke University and the University of Texas at Austin Business Honors Program with a full scholarship. Ms. Sandy and Mrs. Mary were incredibly personable and a joy to be around; they helped me with every section of the tests. I can honestly say I would not have obtained my U.T. scholarship offer without their help.

This is the best program in DFW because it is a one on one training so they can pinpoint what the child needs to work on. Every child is different and they focus on the individual learning techniques.
It is a game changer.

Ms. Mattox was such a help when I was preparing for the SAT. My scores rose dramatically after doing sessions with her. Ms. Mattox helped me with pacing, testing strategies, and punctuation.

When my daughter retook the SAT, her scores were significantly higher--enough for her to apply confidently to colleges that previously seemed out of her reach. Sandy’s approach to prepping for the SAT produces dramatic results in a short period.
Judy,

With Ms. Mattox’s help I was able to score a 35 on my ACT. Thank You! In such a short time I was able to learn so much from Ms. Mattox in prepping for the ACT. She helped me learn how to pace myself, explained concepts to me clearly, and gave me testing strategies that work.

I approached Boost Your Score online in hopes of increasing my ACT score to at least a 33. Through the Boost Your Score program, I was able to achieve just that. The program offered unique strategies for each section that were tailored to my strengths and weaknesses. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and the results I was able to achieve and would definitely recommend the program to those desiring to boost their test scores.

With Mrs. Walker's help, I was able to boost my SAT and ACT scores dramatically. Both my older sister and I were tutored by Mrs. Walker for SAT and ACT prep, and we both think the world of her. Mrs. Walker was always patient with me and explained everything perfectly. If I ever had any questions outside of tutoring sessions, she was always available to help me.
Emily

The Boost Your Score test strategies were so helpful for my SAT and ACT scores. My reading and writing scores improved significantly. Ms. Mattox knows the tests like the back of her hand, and her method works, unlike the methods of other programs I tried.

My son's PSAT and SAT scores on practice tests have consistently risen from an average of about 500 to as high as 700 points since working with Sandra Mattox. My son's academic confidence has soared. I would recommend these techniques to anyone.

With SAT based easy to learn grammar lessons, a formula for success pertaining to the essay, and a mentality reflecting no short-cuts, there is only one thing that can be said about Ms. Mattox's testing strategies—they work.

My daughter’s SAT scores have improved immensely under Sandy Mattox’s guidance. She teaches in a way that every student can understand and learn PSAT and SAT skills. She is an amazing teacher.

Lexi is finishing up her Junior year at Guyer HS and needed to improve her previous ACT score to be more in line with her GPA before she applied for colleges this summer. Sandy and Mary pushed Lexi in a way to pull out what she didn't see in herself and gave her the confidence to face test anxiety. They reinforced helpful tips and gave different test-taking strategies, reviewed practice tests and analyzed areas to improve upon. Overall, Lexi's ACT score improved 3 points and she scored a 36 on English! Highly recommend Sandy and Mary!
Tamara

If you need PSAT or SAT help, Ms. Mattox will save you! Since Ms. Mattox has tutored me in SAT reading and writing, my scores keep increasing. After a couple of sessions with the student, Ms. Mattox knows what the student’s weaknesses and strengths are. She explains the material thoroughly and in such a way that students don’t feel insulted.
Emily

Thank You, Mrs. Sandy. My Son Devansh worked with Mrs. Sandy during his junior year for ACT and SAT preparation. Devansh’s scores improved drastically in both ACT and SAT because of continuous guidance and specific test strategies from Mrs. Sandy. My daughter is already her student and doing very well in school and on STAAR tests. Mrs. Sandy is a very good teacher as well as a very good human being. Our daughter will continue to work with her for ACT and SAT preparation in the future.
Pradeep

Thank you, Ms. Sandy and Mrs. Mary. I had Mrs. Walker and Ms. Mattox tutor me for much of my junior year. They taught me how to time myself and increase my knowledge before the ACT. I noticed such a big improvement in not only my ACT but also my English, Reading, and math skills.
Lauren

My son worked with Mrs. Walker for ACT Math Prep. Mrs Walker's tips and guidance helped him boost his ACT scores to almost perfect. Mrs. Walker was able to recognize his problem areas and help him work on those specifically to achieve a higher score in ACT math. We are grateful to her for taking the time to work with him.

I had my son, who is an athlete, start with Mrs. Mattox around January his junior year. He was previously enrolled in other (commercial type prep. classes), in which he didn't improve much and didn't get the scores he expected, which indirectly put him in a time crunch in regards to his athletic recruiting. Mrs. Mattox is extremely helpful and understanding…..she knew exactly what we were going through and helped him improve a lot .She is one of the best teachers we ever had in our kid’s life! Such teachers are extremely rare and difficult to find. She has tremendous knowledge in this field...knows exactly what she is doing and keeps herself updated with this changing world at all times! She had an answer to every question I had. Cannot wait to get my younger one started with her! Best Teacher Ever...highly recommend her.

I spent 6 weeks working with Mrs. Mattox and Mrs. Mary during my junior year. I would call myself a pretty average student and was very intimidated about taking the SAT or ACT test, but thanks to Sandy's and Mary’s tutoring help I was able to score a 32 on my ACT, which makes me competitive for many more scholarships. I am so thankful for their help and support which has opened so many doors for me as I apply to colleges. Prior to the tutoring, I had taken a couple of practice tests, and I was unable to finish any of the sections and felt very overwhelmed,.... but Sandy and Mary helped me so much with pacing and strategies and overall confidence. They had me very well prepared for the test format, so I knew exactly what to expect on test day and how to approach the test. I much preferred the one on one time with each of them instead of a large class of students, because it allowed me to get the most out of each session without interruptions. I can’t recommend them enough and am so thankful for their help.
