About Us

At Edison Prep, we firmly believe that the quality and experience of our tutors are paramount. We are proud to say that our founders are the most experienced SAT/ACT tutors in Georgia by a significant margin, and they teach all of our group classes exclusively and have trained our entire team of tutors personally. Their exceptional knowledge and skill, honed over years of successful tutoring and creation of our custom Edison Prep curriculum, are a testament to their commitment to helping students achieve their academic goals. When you choose Edison Prep, you can be sure that you’re getting the very best in test preparation.

We are passionate about our craft (see picture at left); Silvia still insisted on our annual tradition of taking the real SAT test even when 8 months pregnant with twins, and of course beat Brian by 20 points in the process!

Our Tutors

Our small team of tutors is the most experienced in Georgia, with over 160,000 hours of combined teaching. We intentionally keep our team small to ensure personalized attention for each student, since approximately 60% of our students begin with a group class before their first exam, followed by private sessions with our expert tutors. The number of full-time SAT/ACT tutors in Atlanta is about 60, and we’re proud to say that almost half of them work at Edison Prep.

All tutors undergo extensive training with Brian and Silvia and collaborate regularly to hone their teaching abilities and discuss strategies. Our tutors are highly committed, with the vast majority doing SAT/ACT instruction full-time, and most doing the same amount of private tutoring in a day as our founders do in a week. Every lesson is tailored to the student’s individual pace, and all tutors assign weekly homework to reinforce learning.

While most of our team meets in person, they are also available for virtual sessions when needed. With a wide range of expertise across subjects like math, physics, chemistry, English, and test prep for AP/IB exams, SSATs, and more, our team is well-equipped to help students succeed—if you’re unsure whether we offer a particular service, just ask!

Personal Test Experience:

In High School: Top 1% scores on the PSAT, SAT, and ACT

Present-Day: We both still take the SAT and ACT each year to keep current, and score in the top 1% (usually top 0.3%) each time, a unique attribute among Atlanta tutors. The most recent scores include 36, 1590, 1570, 1560 (new SAT), 2370, 2350 (old SAT), five perfect composite scores, and back-to-back-to-back perfect 36’s on the ACT. Many tutoring companies simply require tutors to have top 15-30% scores or administer their own inauthentic certification exams (or have no requirement at all). All tutors at Edison Prep devour all new tests as they’re released from the SAT and ACT each year so that we can provide the best assistance to our students. Accountants and other professionals keep current with continuing education each year; tutors who are professionals should be no different!

Data-focused beyond just the SAT/ACT

We pride ourselves on staying current with admissions changes, test optional data, grade inflation, UGA admissions trends, and other items that help us add value beyond the test. Our free info sessions provide immense value into ever-evolving college admissions trends!

We are frequently interviewed on national podcasts on topics such as cutting the cost of college and grade in addition to test prep, and we serve as one of the founding members of the National Test Prep Association.
