SAT Mastery Seminar

The Shoreline’s Premier SAT Preparation Experience

🎓 About the Instructor

Daryl Capuano has devoted over two decades to helping Connecticut students reach their full potential. A graduate Georgetown and Penn Law, Daryl combines the analytical precision of a lawyer with the motivational insight of an educator.

Since founding The Learning Consultants, he has personally guided thousands of Shoreline students to higher SAT scores and successful college admissions outcomes — including acceptances to the Ivy League and top 50 national universities.

🚀 Why Our SAT Mastery Seminar Is the Best Choice

1. Direct Instruction from the Area’s Top SAT Expert
Unlike franchise programs where students are taught by part-time instructors, every class is led by Daryl Capuano himself, the Shoreline’s most experienced SAT educator.

2. Seven Weeks of Comprehensive Preparation
Six focused instructional weeks plus one make-up/review weekend—providing structure, accountability, and mastery across Reading, Writing, and Math.

3. Flexible Format
Students can attend virtually (9:00–10:30 a.m.) or in-person in Old Saybrook (10:30 a.m.–12:00 p.m.) each week, allowing families to adapt to changing schedules.

4. Proven Curriculum & Materials Included
All participants receive carefully selected SAT books and proprietary practice materials (a $30 value). Every lesson integrates real SAT-style drills, strategy refinement, and performance feedback.

5. Exceptional Value
At $495 for the full seven-week program, families receive elite-level instruction for a fraction of the cost of large national prep companies—taught by the Shoreline’s leading test-prep professional.

Overview:

We believe our class has been so popular due to the results and our teaching.

Our classes have proven clearly superior to in-school programs but our super flexibility also has helped our busy students and parents.

Regular breaks are given.  The class is lively and energetic.  Students are usually surprised that time passes so quickly!!!

THE BEST PRACTICES OF TEST PREP

We train our students in the best practices related to reading comprehension, grammar, math, test-taking strategy, self-study, and performance psychology.

Yes, we teach content also.

Unlike other providers that focus only on the “tricks” of test prep, we also teach content. Students report finally understanding math concepts, as well as learning grammar rules and understanding how to read more effectively after going through our program.

Motivation is our secret sauce

We know with certainty that after we get our students to care, they will work harder not only for test prep but in school and in preparing for their college journey. Through the years, countless parents have commented that something shifted in their children after attending our seminars.

We help our students get ready for college

Parents repeatedly tell us that previously stressed conversations about college become easier after the SAT Mastery Seminar because their children finally understand the life altering transition that they are about to undertake. They feel “inspired” rather than anxious after our seminar and coaching.

Individual Tutoring

Most of our students take our seminar and follow with individual tutoring.  Some students exclusively work with our expert tutors.
