REMAIN CLAM!

These books review the topics and types of questions on each respective test. Additionally, the series teaches students how to read, write and process their math and all work better. Most importantly, our Remain Clam! series uses humor, stories and clear instruction to show students how to come to know their own minds, overcome bad habits and manage time and tests with poise.

TESTIMONIALS

WE ARE IBID

ibidPREP tutors are a special bunch. They’re not teachers in the conventional sense. They are writers and actors and artists and lawyers and physicists and public health experts and journalists and chemists. They are warm-hearted individuals committed to imparting the material, methods and attitude necessary to make their students happy and successful in their studies and their tests. Over and above these qualities, we stress that our general tutors be adept at teaching both Math and ELA.

All tutors listed below are current and active with ibidPREP.
