SQUARE THE CIRCLES
At Square the Circles, we believe that tutoring and college prep is more than just helping students improve their standardized test scores; it’s a way to motivate and prepare students to achieve their academic and professional goals in a competitive world. Scroll below to view our select services.
COLLEGE COUNSELING
It is not just the destination but the journey.
We begin by brainstorming with students to identify their passions, ideally in 9th grade. As those passions take root, students can delve deeper and authentically into an area of interest which can be showcased to colleges. More importantly, though, your children light up as they develop new skills and find their voices. We take a comprehensive and collaborative approach to create a plan, program and college list that matches each student's personality and academic needs. We assist with identifying and gaining acceptance to summer and internship programs.
ESSAYS & APPLICATIONS
Applying to college requires patience and planning, especially with students' busy schedules. The Common or Coalition App is often just the beginning, as many schools require customized supplemental submissions.
Once enrolled in college, students often seek admission to specialized degree programs that require detailed applications. We have a 100% success getting students into their chosen transfer program.
We are here to help.
INTERVIEW PREP
Interviewing is a learned skill, and too often students focus on perfecting their written product rather than interview skills. These soft skills are not taught in school, and can make the difference in video calls or in-person meetings. We prepare students to showcase their strengths and accomplishments with confidence, so that they can present the best version of themselves to college representatives or interviewers for internships or jobs.
TUTORING SAT & ACT (& SSAT/ISEE)
In one town, we are known as "the closers." We are often called in once a student has seemingly plateaued, and use our proprietary techniques to achieve dramatic score improvements. We tailor our tutoring (currently available online) to fit the unique needs and circumstances of each student. With our professional tutors and your dedication to succeed, we guarantee results.
