A quick review of current score(s), goals, and timeline
Where your student is losing the easiest points (timing, strategy, accuracy)
A clear next-step plan for the next 2–4 weeks
A simple yes/no on whether Crownridge is the right fit

How it works: Choose a time → answer a few quick questions → you’re booked.

Is Your Student Capable of More Than Their Current ACT Score Shows?

Many high-achieving students know the material — but struggle to translate that knowledge into consistent ACT performance.

Parents often reach out when they notice:

Strong grades but ACT scores that don’t reflect true ability
Students losing points due to timing, second-guessing, or avoidable mistakes
Anxiety or pressure affecting test-day performance
Plateaued scores despite studying hard or using traditional prep programs
Uncertainty about when to start or how to prepare strategically

Crownridge Coaching is designed for students who are capable of more — and need a precise strategy to unlock their full potential.

Is Crownridge Coaching the Right Fit?

This program is a strong fit for:

Students with strong academics whose ACT scores don’t yet reflect their true ability
Families who want direct access to a single expert coach — not a rotating roster of tutors
Students preparing for selective college admissions, honors programs, or merit scholarships
Students who struggle with timing, pacing, or test-day anxiety despite knowing the material
Families who value a strategic, personalized approach over generic group prep
Students who are motivated and willing to do focused work between sessions

This program is probably not the right fit if:

You’re looking for the lowest-cost option available
Your student needs only light, occasional review
You’re expecting results without consistent practice between sessions
You’re looking for a group class or self-paced video program

If your student fits the first list, a free strategy call is the best next step to find out whether Crownridge is right for them.

Not Group Classes. Not Generic Tutors. Not Mass-Market Test Prep.

Most ACT programs focus on volume — more worksheets, more classes, more tutors.

Crownridge Coaching focuses on precision.

Every student works directly with Grace Dunn in fully personalized, one-on-one sessions.

There are:

No group classes
No generic lesson plans
No rotating tutors
No outsourced instruction

Instead, Grace identifies:

Where points are being lost
Why mistakes are happening
How to fix them efficiently and permanently

The result is smarter preparation — not just more preparation.

“Grace connected with my daughter immediately. Her feedback was specific, motivating, and kind — exactly the combination that made her believe she could hit her ACT goal of 35. She did."

"My son had tried a self-paced prep program before Grace — it wasn't enough for a student who needed real accountability. Working directly with Grace, she gave him a system for performing under pressure that made the difference. .”

Parent of Dartmouth College Student
