Grade Expectations: Regents Success

That Regents Success is the prep program of choice of high-school students and their parents is not surprising. Coordinated by Eddie Martin, an educator par excellence who established the program 18 years ago, Regents Success has helped thousands of high-school students throughout the Five Towns and Brooklyn prepare for and score high on the New York State Regents Exams.

So successful is this superb program that Mr. Martin begins receiving inquiries regarding registration for the courses offered as early as in November. At Regents Success, mediocre scores are never an option. Every one of the courses offered features six hours of intensive topic-by-topic review with an emphasis on key questions. Regents Success provides students with a comprehensive review of all topics, as well as test-taking strategies to help students maximize their scores.

To fully prepare students for each of the three New York State Regents examinations in mathematics, Regents Success offers six-hour prep courses in integrated algebra, geometry, and math B. The living environment, chemistry, earth science, and physics courses are outstanding in scope, as are those offered in global history, geography, U.S. history and geography, as well as English.

“Every one of our teachers is New York State licensed and certified,” Mr. Martin said. Each teacher is a consummate professional and is an expert in the subject and Regents examination material he or she teaches. Prior to teaching their respective courses, all of our teachers spend months of prep time familiarizing themselves with the details and intricacies of the most recent Regents exams. All of our teachers return year after year and each one is an integral part of the Regents Success team, working in tandem to maximize every student’s score. Two of the math Regents curricula have recently undergone drastic changes; our teachers have written the Regents exams and are eminently qualified to prepare our students for Regents success. In addition to teaching their respective topics and test sophistication skills, our teachers infuse their students with a sense of confidence and truly prepare them for Regents success.”

Regents Success prep courses are given at HAFTR High School and at their Brooklyn center at Yeshiva of Flatbush Elementary School. Advance registration is requested and advised; walk-ins are accepted. To register for Regents Success, please call Mr. Eddie Martin at 516-568-7996. Please see their ad on Page 34 for course dates.
