Why use Origins Tutoring test prep materials?
Our goal is to provide you with the best gifted and talented workbooks and materials, and the very best value for your money. We created our gifted and talented workbooks and practice tests because, as a tutoring company, we could not find enough good practice material to effectively prepare our students for gifted and talented exams. As tutors in New York City, we have used the various test prep books and we have found them to either have an incorrect difficulty level (too easy) or be very expensive. After studying original materials from test creators and testing them on children, we believe our materials and tests adequately prepare students to do their very best on the official Gifted and Talented NYC test.
