The University of Tennessee at Martin Office of University Outreach is offering a series of online ACT prep courses throughout the fall for students preparing for the test.
The ACT Digital One-Stop Success Tactics workshops will teach students test-taking strategies over Zoom in either two two-hour sessions on the first Tuesdays and Thursdays of each month or a four-hour session on select Saturdays. Math and Science Reasoning will be taught on Tuesdays, and English and Reading will be taught on Thursdays.
The four-hour Saturday sessions will cover all subjects on the ACT and will be held from 9 a.m. – 1:30 p.m., Sept. 12 and Oct. 10. The registration fee is $60.
The two-hour sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays will be taught from 5 – 7 p.m. Registration fees for each course cost $30.
- Math and Science Reasoning: Aug. 4; Sept. 1, Oct. 6, Nov. 3 and Dec. 1.
- English and Reading: Aug. 6, Sept. 3, Oct. 8, Nov. 5 and Dec. 3.
University Outreach is also offering the ACT Mastery Classes, which provide expanded, in-depth ACT prep instruction. Students will also be able to take a full practice exam and learn strategies not taught in the success tactics workshop. Each course has a registration fee of $50, but students will receive a $20 discount for registering for all four courses.
All classes are offered from 5 – 7 p.m.
- English Mastery Course: Sept. 21
- Math Mastery Course: Sept. 22

UT Martin adjunct faculty member and author Alex Beene will teach the courses. Beene currently serves as a lead instructor for Tennessee Adult Education in three counties and works primarily with rising high school juniors and seniors needing academic help with standardized testing.
