Preparing Westwood Students for HSPT Success

Westwood is home to some of Los Angeles’ most ambitious students, with access to excellent schools like Fairburn Avenue Elementary, Warner Avenue Elementary, and private institutions such as Geffen Academy at UCLA. Many families in the area have their sights set on selective Catholic and private high schools, where a strong performance on the High School Placement Test (HSPT) can be a deciding factor in admissions.

At Groza Educational Center, our HSPT Test Prep in Westwood is designed to help students excel on this important exam. We combine targeted instruction, proven strategies, and realistic practice to ensure students approach test day with skill and confidence.

Our program covers all five sections of the HSPT—Verbal Skills, Quantitative Skills, Reading, Mathematics, and Language—while tailoring instruction to the unique needs of Westwood students.

Prepare for HSPT Private Tutoring

At Groza, we believe the assessment is the key to HSPT success. We begin with a practice HSPT which provides a thorough HSPT score report and test analysis. This assessment provides a roadmap that your Groza private tutor will use to create a custom lesson plan. Your student’s private HSPT tutor will work with your high school student to reach their target HSPT score needed to get into their top-choice schools. 95% of our test prep students get into the top three schools of their choice.

Real Test Score Improvement

We pride ourselves on delivering real HSPT score results for our students. Our private tutors are experts in all sections of the HSPT, including Math, English, Reading, Science, and Writing, and can provide in-depth assistance in each subject. Not only do we focus on mastering HSPT subject matter, but our tutors help students fine-tune test-taking strategies specific to the HSPT. On average, Groza students see an increase of 4-10 points on their scores.
