Many of the major learning centers have tutoring for the college entrance exams. But I also wanted to say please get her accommodations for the test through the college board. She should extra time, frequent breaks and maybe reading print a loud. Just apply when you fill out her application. I think it is still through ETS ( educational testing services). Best of luck!

I would go to this site and it can help. It says that you should set things up with the school she is attending now.

Good luck!

When my daughter was in high school her counselor was able to work with the SAT people to get the test divided into two Saturdays with extra breaks.

Hiring a tutor is a nice idea. When my sister's child was in an accident, he had two broken legs. And for some reason, no one from school offered them assistance in the form of homeschooling and other things, because they do not have insurance, in general, it was a very difficult situation so can't tell you more about the case. Anyway, they decided that they will start learning/studying at home with tutors. It was a great idea and they took advantage of the platform yourmoneygeek.com.
