Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why are your classes only two hours long?
A: According to Statistics Brain, the average attention span is 8.25 seconds. With this in mind, The Coach Kam Method focuses on delivering the right information in a concise form to optimize students' attention span during class. Our very interactive and intense coaching sessions get results without forcing students to sift through a lot of filler. Additionally, Coach Kam's students are busy with sports and extracurricular activities, so we ensure that we make the most of our time in class.
Q: I have a learning disability. Do you cater to that?
A: Of course we do! Coach Kam has worked with students with various learning "opportunities." The Coach Kam methods work well with students who have various learning needs . We highly recommend that you sign up for a small group, doubles, or individual tutoring so that we can attend to your needs more intimately. Please email or call us so that we can address all your questions.
Q: I need to miss a class. Is it possible to attend another session?
A: Because your classmates are your teammates and we assign cohorts for learning purposes, it is difficult to switch from class to class without disrupting the team dynamic. We highly recommend that you sign up for a class that will fit your needs for the entire six weeks. However, we will treat each individual request on a case by case basis.
Q: I am hesitant about taking the class because I need more attention. What do you recommend?
A: We keep our classes small for a reason. We believe it allows our instructors to provide students with one on one attention and have all their questions answered. However, if you still believe you might require additional attention, we recommend supplementing the workshops with individual tutoring.
Q: Which test should I take, the ACT or SAT?
A: This is a hard question to answer because each test appeals to students for different reasons. The choice is really up to you. At Coach Kam, we teach strategies and methods that will adequately prepare students to excel on each test.Here is a chart that explores the differences between the ACT and SAT.
