Our Team
Our Founder’s Story
Before she founded Enhanced Prep, Rachel Mead spent decades as a professional tutor. And before that, Rachel was a high school student witnessing, firsthand, the tremendous impact that a single test score can have on a student’s life. After she saw how effective tutoring was for a close friend who struggled to secure a hard-earned athletic scholarship because of his test scores, Rachel knew that she wanted to remove the barrier that standardized testing poses for many students.
Rachel worked with some of the top test prep and tutoring companies for over 25 years. Throughout that time, schools became more competitive, students needed higher test scores and GPA’s. But the traditional tutoring methods weren’t getting the results they used to. Rachel realized that something was missing from the experience for both students and parents – a tailored, personal approach. Enter, Enhanced Prep.
The Enhanced Prep team is made up of some of the best and most passionate tutors and education professionals. Our tutors teach for the love of helping students achieve scores and grades they never thought possible. We take the best parts of traditional tutoring services and build upon them to create a unique game plan for every student.
We work to set students up for success in both the classroom and throughout their lives by giving them the tools and helping them build the habits they need to achieve what they set out to do. We are so proud of the work our students put in and the results they achieve because of it.
