How can ACT tutoring help boost my child’s college admission chances?

College admissions are no joke—especially in Washington, D.C., where the competition is as fierce as a Georgetown debate team. Whether your child’s aiming for an Ivy League, a top-tier public university, or one of those dreamy liberal arts schools that read essays like novels, a strong ACT score can tip the scales. And that’s exactly where tutoring comes in.

At Cardinal Education, we don’t just go over math problems and grammar rules—we build game plans. Our ACT tutors teach strategy: how to beat the clock, avoid second-guess spirals, and stay sharp through all four sections. We run mock tests that feel like the real thing, then use the data to fine-tune your child’s prep until they’re testing like a pro.

Think of us as academic trainers, not just tutors. Whether your student is STEM-bound or eyeing an arts program that still likes strong scores, we’ll make sure they walk into test day feeling focused, fearless, and fully prepped.
