NCSA Partners with Academic Approach
November 3rd, 2008 - byNCSA is pleased to announce our newest partner, Academic Approach. Through the partnership, Academic Approach will provide NCSA student-athletes with highly effective online SAT and ACT courses that will assist them in scoring higher. These courses will help assess a student-athlete’s academic gaps and virtually spot-treat these gaps by teaching them the solid content they need. Academic Approach calls this approach “Teaching Beyond the Test.” They don’t teach games or gimmicks, but the academic content found within the test itself. CEO Matthew Pietrefetta will lead bi-monthly conference calls with groups of student-athletes to speak with them about the nuances and strategies of getting into competitive colleges.
“We’re thrilled to provide SAT and ACT education to NCSA’s student-athletes and help provide the necessary academic skills to take their game to the next level,” says Matthew Pietrafetta, founder and CEO of Academic Approach.
“Working alongside NCSA, we will be able to have a positive impact in the lives of thousands of student-athletes to not only improve test scores but also to build lasting confidence, motivation, and abilities that will extend beyond their college careers,” says Pietrafetta.
