Expert instruction, made personal

Chattahoochee High School sits at the border of Johns Creek and Alpharetta, drawing students from some of the most affluent and education-driven communities in Metro Atlanta. The school’s AP participation rate is among the highest in Fulton County, and its science department is widely regarded as one of the strongest in North Fulton. Many Chattahoochee students compete in Science Olympiad and regional math competitions, and the school’s college placement record reflects a culture where rigorous STEM preparation is the expectation, not the exception.

Chattahoochee students often arrive to SAT prep with strong academic fundamentals, but the jump from classroom performance to competitive test scores is not automatic. The SAT measure speed, strategy, and pattern recognition in ways that classroom instruction does not directly teach. Students who earn 4.0 GPAs can still underperform on standardized tests without targeted, test-specific preparation.

My No Assumption methodology starts with a diagnostic that measures exactly where your student stands on the SAT or ACT. I do not guess based on grades or class rank. I measure, identify the highest-impact areas, and build a plan from there.

Chattahoochee High students get 1-on-1 instruction with Michael, SAT prep and academic coaching built around the Hooch academic calendar. Every session is with the same instructor, with the continuity that group classes can't replicate.

What I help with

SAT preparation

A diagnostic-first test prep program that works from where the points are actually leaving. Chattahoochee students targeting UGA, Georgia Tech, Emory, and out-of-state reaches need test scores that match their transcripts. I build a plan around your student’s score profile and test date.

AP & honors course support

Private instruction in math, science, and English at the AP and honors levels. Chattahoochee’s AP culture means students often manage four or more AP courses simultaneously. I provide the individualized depth that helps students keep performance high across all of them.

College admissions strategy

Chattahoochee sends a large, well-qualified class to college every year, and standing out requires strategic positioning. I help with course selection, transcript narrative, and application strategy tailored to your student’s target schools.

Subject-specific tutoring

Focused support in math, science, and English for students who need to strengthen specific areas. I identify the exact concepts causing friction and close those gaps before they affect GPA or standardized test readiness.

Not calculus, not physics, and not the ACT as a whole. If that is what your student needs, I’ll say so on the first call and point you to someone who does it well.

Remote sessions that fit a Chattahoochee schedule

Chattahoochee students are busy. AP course loads, varsity athletics, clubs, and community involvement fill every hour. My remote sessions eliminate commute time and fit around your student’s existing commitments.

Every session is live, one-on-one, and fully interactive: video, shared documents, real-time whiteboard work, and direct instruction. No driving to a tutoring center, no group classes, no time spent on material your student has already mastered.

Not another tutoring franchise

North Fulton is saturated with tutoring options. What most of them share is a one-size-fits-all approach that does not match the caliber of student Chattahoochee produces. I work differently: small roster, custom plans, diagnostic-driven instruction, and documented outcomes.

My average student improves their SAT score by 140 to 260 points, across 45 test takers in the last twelve months. Every engagement begins with a first call where I assess fit, map your student’s academic profile, and determine whether Rainwater Private Tutoring is the right match for your family.

Chattahoochee has one of the highest AP participation rates in Fulton County, a strong STEM focus across its science and math departments, and an excellent college placement record. Students regularly earn admission to UGA, Georgia Tech, Emory, and competitive out-of-state universities. The school’s culture of academic achievement means students are surrounded by motivated peers, which raises the bar for everyone.
That depends on your student’s college list. For UGA, a competitive SAT score is typically 1300 to 1400+. Georgia Tech applicants should aim for 1400 to 1500+, and Emory targets generally start at 1450+. I use a diagnostic to identify your student’s starting point and build a plan that maps directly to their target schools.
Yes. AP Chemistry, AP Biology and on-level chemistry are all in scope, and they are where most Chattahoochee families come to me. Physics is not something I teach. If that is the course in trouble, I’ll say so rather than take the work.
Every session is live, one-on-one, and fully interactive. I use video, shared documents, and a real-time whiteboard so the experience is as productive as sitting in the same room. Sessions are scheduled around your student’s activities, athletics, and coursework, no commute required.
Franchise tutoring centers typically use standardized worksheets and group instruction. I take a fundamentally different approach: every engagement starts with a custom diagnostic that measures your student’s specific strengths and weaknesses. From there, I build a private, one-on-one plan that targets the exact areas where your student will gain the most ground. No worksheets, no group classes, no generic curriculum.
