Athletic Advising
Our Athletic Advising program is designed for student-athletes who aim to compete at the collegiate level. We connect families with experienced advisors who understand the recruiting landscape, NCAA regulations, and the expectations of college coaches. Many of our advisors are former college athletes or have worked directly in athletic recruiting, giving them insider insight into what it takes to stand out.
We begin by evaluating the student’s athletic profile, academic record, and college goals to create a tailored recruiting strategy. This can include identifying target programs, building a highlight reel, and preparing outreach to coaches that communicates both athletic ability and academic fit. We guide students in maintaining the grades, test scores, and character that college programs expect, ensuring they are as strong in the classroom as they are on the field, court, or pool deck.
Our team also assists with the administrative side of recruiting, including NCAA eligibility requirements, compliance documentation, and completion of recruiting questionnaires. Throughout the process, we provide honest feedback, strategic advice, and ongoing support so families can navigate recruiting with clarity and confidence.

Academic Tutoring
At Luminus Prep, academic tutoring goes far beyond homework help. Our team of Ivy League graduates, veteran AP teachers, and expert instructors knows how to make complex material clear, engaging, and approachable. We cover every core subject as well as all AP courses, tailoring our approach to each student’s learning style, strengths, and challenges.
Our tutoring programs are fully customized. We begin by understanding the student’s academic history, current workload, and personal goals. From there, we design a structured plan that builds skills systematically while addressing immediate needs, whether that is mastering a specific concept, improving writing skills, or preparing for an advanced assessment. Along the way, we teach organization, study habits, and problem-solving strategies that extend far beyond the classroom.
Whether a student needs to reinforce fundamentals, catch up after a challenging semester, or push toward the top of the class, our tutors bring the structure, patience, and depth of knowledge to meet them where they are and elevate them from there. By combining subject mastery with mentorship, we help students achieve higher grades, greater academic independence, and lasting confidence in their abilities.
