Personal SAT Tutor in Newport Beach — Built Around Your Student by the Engineer Who Placed 80+ at Top-20 Universities

1:1 monthly SAT, ACT, and AP tutoring for Newport Beach families. Your child practices daily with a custom AI study tool tuned to exactly the questions they get wrong, then meets monthly with Peter Lee himself for strategy and progress review. Same engineer. Same human accountability. Without the freeway drive.

Built for Orange County

Designed for the Newport Beach families already pushing hardest on college outcomes.

Most students we work with in Newport Beach come from Corona del Mar High, Newport Harbor High, and Sage Hill School — high-rigor public and independent schools where the SAT score and the AP load both matter. The 1:1 monthly program is built around the materials your child is already using at school, so the daily practice reinforces what they are learning in class rather than starting from scratch.

What you get

A custom AI study tool, daily practice, and monthly time with the founder.

  • A study tool tuned to YOUR child

    In the first one or two setup calls, the AI study tool is configured to your child's diagnostic score, weak-spot patterns, prep books already at home, and how they actually learn. It remembers every wrong answer across every session.

  • Monthly 1:1 with the founder himself

    Roughly three hours of Peter's personal time per student per month — strategy block at month start, mid-month progress check, and reserved time for mock-test debriefs and score-report reviews. Not a junior tutor.

  • Anchored to a specific test date

    Every month is pinned to the next concrete milestone — next SAT date, AP exam window, PSAT/National Merit, or earliest college application deadline. No "ongoing enrichment."

  • Carries through every future test

    The same study tool — and the same engineer — carries your child from sophomore PSAT through senior-year AP exams and the Common App essay window. What you pay for this fall keeps working for two to four years.

Cost in Newport Beach context

Less than $35 a day — and less than half of typical Newport Beach tutoring.

A typical Newport Beach SAT tutor at $150 to $200 an hour for three hours a week runs $1,800 to $2,400 a month — without a custom AI study tool, without daily practice between sessions, and without monthly time with the engineer who built the program.

The 1:1 monthly program is $1,000–$1,250 a month (subject scope) plus a one-time $750 custom AI build — the most important week of the program, when the founder personally configures the study tool around your child. No multi-year contract. Cancel any month.
