Company Description
Lafayette Academy is a family owned and operated educational services company headquartered in Lafayette, California. It's services and products include Standardized Test tutoring (SAT General and Subject Tests and the ACT, in both private and group formats), private 1-1 subject tutoring (various K-12 subjects) and "Shadow Classes" (see below).

Shadow Classes
Shadow classes are small group (1-10 students) courses designed to "shadow" particular courses at local high schools. In a given shadow class, all students are enrolled in the same course (the one being shadowed) at the same high school. Shadow class instructors reteach material students may have missed in class and provide "coaching" (see below) for challenging assignments and homework problems.

Standardized Test Preparation
The Lafayette Academy provides private and group tutoring for the following tests: SAT Reasoning Test, SAT subject Tests, ACT, AP Calculus AB/BC Exam, AP Statistics Exam, AP US History Exam, and others.

Private Tutoring
The Lafayette Academy provides individualized instruction in a broad range of subjects. Private lessons offered by Lafayette Academy are tailored to individual students needs and are distinct from Shadow Classes which are designed to mimic the curriculum of a particular course at a particular high school. Typically, private tutoring sessions are subject-specific and taught by specialists in the given field of study or one that is closely related.

History
Lafayette Academy was founded in 1995 by owner Mark Bessler.
