DISCLAIMER:

Peak performance strategies for SAT/ACT prep and/or Coaching Sessions include light to moderate physical (aerobic) exercise, stretching, safe and appropriate supplementation, and optimal/sensible nutrition for maximum results. It is recommended that Parent/Student thoroughly research and/or consult with a competent health professional prior to engaging in such activities as they relate to the services offered by SATPG to be able to confirm best practices for optimal success. SATPG or SATPG Coaches are not responsible at any time for illness or injury due to these activities. Because SATPG Coaches cannot take or assist with actual SATs/ACTs for students, cannot control the actual test site environment, cannot anticipate student study skills, and cannot control unanticipated student test anxiety during actual SATs, SATPG makes no guarantee of results. Additionally, if any Session/Sessions require a mutually agreed upon alternate location, Parent/Student is responsible for all transportation to and from said location. SATPG or SATPG Coaches are not responsible for any accident(s), illness(es), or injury(ies) to Student/Parent to and from locations and/or before/during/after classes provided by SATPG. Furthermore, please secure and remove any fragile items from the area where the SATPG Session takes place. SATPG is not responsible for any damage or breakage of these items.

3. Location of Services.

SATPG provides in-home, in-class, and on-line Coaching. Occasionally, with the  advanced agreement of all parties, a secondary public location is permitted. For classes of 4 or more students, a  location other than one of the Parent/Student households may be provided. If Parent/Student cancels 3+ scheduled Sessions within a single/multiple-test cycle of actual SAT/ACTs, the remaining sessions may be  completed online. 

4. Cancellation of Session Policy.

Under normal circumstances, Parent/Student must provide at least 24-hour  phone/text notice of cancellation/rescheduling to SATPG/Educational Coach prior to a scheduled Session.  SATPG/Educational Coach must also, under normal circumstances, provide at least 24-hour phone/text notice  of cancellation/rescheduling to Parent/Student prior to a scheduled Session. If sufficient notice is not provided  by the Parent/Student to SATPG/Educational Coach, particularly after confirmation of Session has been  acknowledged by both Coach and Student/Parent, then the Session may be counted as one of the Sessions  provided (certainly for a no-show or canceling within a few hours of the scheduled Session) and may not be  made up. If an emergency takes place to either party, phone/text notice must be given as soon as possible prior  to a scheduled Session. After the original schedule is pre-set between the Student/Parent and the SATPG Coach,  a maximum of 2 Sessions may be rescheduled by Parent/Student. If the SATPG Coach must reschedule a  Session, then that would not count as one of the aforementioned rescheduled Sessions.

5. Parent Responsibilities.

For SAT or ACT in-home Coaching Sessions, a parent or guardian is recommended to be present. All in-home Sessions shall be held in a common area: kitchen, dining room, professional home office. Parents are also encouraged to employ positive and supportive reinforcement whenever possible and  NOT overly micromanage the SATPG Process, unless requested by the SATPG Coach with specific instructions  on functionally enhancing student progress. Typically, SATPG Coaches maintain a full schedule of Students;  therefore, it is important to understand the importance of flexibility when scheduling and having at least 3  options during each week of SAT prep so we can proceed functionally. Communication is key: if questions or  concerns arise about the Coach/Coaching process, then please contact SATPG for assistance.

6. Materials.

SATPG will furnish all proprietary and copyrighted materials, equipment and supplies used to provide the services required by this Agreement for delivery to the Parent/Student. SATPG will provide all of  the course materials necessary for the success of the student. The prices are outlined in Section 12: Tuition  Rates and Other Services.

7. Exclusive Agreement.

The SATPG Agreement for Parents and Students is the entire Agreements between Provider and Parent/Student.

8. Modifying the Agreement

This Agreement may be modified only in writing if signed/agreed by both  parties. In the case of any modification, the remainder of the Agreement remains intact and binding to all parties involved. 

9. Intellectual Property Ownership.

Student/Parent understands that SATPG owns all intellectual property for  SAT/ACT Dominance!TM Training Program materials. Parent/Student agrees not to use, sell, or share in any way any of the copyrighted or proprietary materials to any other party from now until the end of time without  Provider’s (SATPG) prior written permission. Furthermore, SATPG has the right to confidentially publish  Student/Parent testimonials and SAT/ACT results. SATPG’s online spreadsheets maintain anonymity and  privacy because no names are provided to the public.

10. Confidentiality.

Parent/Student acknowledges that it will be necessary for SATPG to disclose certain confidential and proprietary information to Parent/Student in order for SATPG/Educational Coach to perform  his/her duties under this Agreement. Parent/Student acknowledges that any disclosure to any third party or  any misuse of this proprietary or confidential information from any SATPG physical or virtual domain  would irreparably harm SATPG. Accordingly, Parent/Student will not disclose any  proprietary/confidential information or compete with SATPG in any way, shape, or form, either during or  at any time after the term of this Agreement. 

11. Applicable Law, Severability and Indemnity.

The common laws of Florida State and the United States  Republic, with SATPG headquarters located in Broward County, Florida, will govern this Agreement. In the  event of any disagreement between parties, mediation will be attempted first. If any provision or provisions  shall be held to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable or in conflict with the law of the US Constitution, the validity,  legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby. Furthermore, each person pursuant to this Agreement agrees to engage in an air of civility with each other  throughout the process of test prep and beyond for the highest good of all involved. In the case of extreme  violence toward the SATPG Coach (physical attack, inappropriate language, or any other form of unnecessarily  dangerous situation, SATPG has the option to suspend/cancel the remaining sessions and provide a pro-rated  refund for the remaining sessions less half the cancellation fee.7 In addition, cheating is counterproductive to  student progress. Should a student by any means procure the answers to an assigned practice test in advance and uses those answers-in whole or in part-to falsify the results, SATPG has the option to suspend/cancel the  remaining sessions and provide a pro-rated refund for the remaining sessions less half the cancellation fee.7

2. Ultimate SAT Preparation results are based on at least 8 sessions. In the event of a time crunch due to last minute senior scheduling timeframes prior to a final  SAT administration, a minimum of 5 Sessions must be scheduled at a rate of a minimum of 80% of the above selected tuition level.

5. SATPG Address: 11350 Heron Bay Blvd., Unit 2623, Coral Springs, FL 33076. For Parents/Students who choose 2 or 3 payment plan option must remit using valid  credit card only for remaining payments. If initial or subsequent Client payment is declined, not received, or a check is returned unpaid then SATPG reserves the right  to suspend or terminate any pro-rated remaining sessions until payment is procured. There will be a $35 fee for each declined, late, or returned payment.

6. For Domestic wires, please add $15 per wire. For International wires, please add $35 per wire. Wire option in one payment only.

7. Please note that all or a portion of the tuition payment is due at the initial consultation meeting prior to scheduling SAT or ACT Coaching Sessions and release   of confidential and proprietary materials. As a result of the initiation of this Agreement, SATPG will incur unrecoverable costs for marketing, referral rewards,   data entry, printing, materials, and scheduling. Therefore, a cancellation fee of $600 will apply if Student/Parent cancels any or all pre-scheduled sessions prior   to the beginning of the course or at any time prior to the completion of the course. If a refund is requested after Sessions have been completed, then those   completed Sessions will be deducted proportionally from the original tuition amount paid by Client to SATPG in determining the refund; a cancellation fee of   $600 will also be deducted. The remainder of this Agreement, including confidentiality/ intellectual property ownership, will remain in effect even in the event of   a refund. 

8. Because the Student makes the commitment through this Agreement to strive for at least 80% compliance with the responsibilities and recommendations on   page 1, and because SATPG also agrees to work with Students who make the diligent and consistent effort to comply with the 80% responsibilities and   recommendations, If after at least 5 sessions into the SATPG program the Student is under-performing (under 50% overall), unmotivated (under 50%), generally   unwilling to move toward proven successful strategies, and/or not diligently/consistently completing the recommended homework/practice test assignments,  then SATPG has the option to suspend/cancel the remaining sessions and provide a pro-rated refund for the remaining sessions less half the   cancellation fee.
