If you are looking for an SAT tutor in Lima, I have not yet found an in-person tutor to list. Below I explain how online tutoring with me works, where students sit the exam in Lima, and where to get college advising.
Online SAT tutoring with me
I tutor the SAT online, one to one, and I work with students in Lima. Before we start, I build a Precision Point Map™ from your son or daughter's score report, so we know exactly which points are missing. In session, I teach only what he or she doesn't know yet, instead of assigning practice problem after practice problem.
- Time difference: Lima is on UTC-5 all year, with no daylight saving. I am in Los Angeles, 3 hours behind Lima in winter and 2 hours behind in summer, so a 6:00 pm lesson in Lima is 3:00 pm for me in winter.
- Device for test day: A student who brings their own device uses a Windows or Mac laptop or an iPad with the Bluebook app, and runs the device check at least 30 days before. A personal Chromebook or a phone will not work. A student without a suitable device can ask the College Board to lend one, also at least 30 days ahead.
- Updates for parents: After every session I email the parents my session notes, so you know what we covered and what the student does next, wherever you are. I also keep you posted on the test registration and test-day details.
Schedule a no-obligation intro call
Pick a time that works for you and I will walk through your score report and what SAT tutoring would look like. Sessions are one-on-one with me, so I can take only 20 new students a month.
Taking the SAT in Lima
The College Board lists several SAT test centers in Lima, and the city has at least one on every test date from December 2026 to June 2027. Markham College and Colegio Franklin D. Roosevelt are listed for all four dates. Other centers are listed only for some dates, so check the date you want before choosing a center.
| Test center | Test dates |
|---|---|
| Markham College, code 86155, Augusto Angulo 291, Miraflores | Dec 5, 2026; Mar 6, May 1 and Jun 5, 2027 |
| Colegio Franklin D. Roosevelt, code 86150, Av. Las Palmeras 325, Camacho, La Molina | Dec 5, 2026; Mar 6, May 1 and Jun 5, 2027 |
| Colegio San Silvestre, code 86146, Av. Santa Cruz 1251, Miraflores | Mar 6, May 1 and Jun 5, 2027 |
| Colegio Villa María La Planicie, code 86459, Av. La Laguna 280, La Planicie, La Molina | Mar 6, May 1 and Jun 5, 2027 |
| Aleph School, code 12409, Alameda del Remero Lt. 5-6 Mz X, Los Huertos de Villa, Chorrillos | Dec 5, 2026; Mar 6 and Jun 5, 2027 |
| Newton College, code 94086, Ricardo Elías Aparicio 240, La Molina | Dec 5, 2026; Mar 6, 2027 |
| International Christian School of Lima, code 86153, 185 Calle Retiro, Miraflores | Mar 6, 2027 |
Outside Lima, the College Board also lists Centro Cultural Peruano Norteamericano in Arequipa (code 86105) on Dec 5, Mar 6 and Jun 5, and EducationUSA at ICPNA Cusco (code 91770) on all four dates.
Registration costs $68 plus a $43 international fee, $111 in total. Some centers add a local test center fee of about $24, so the total can run a little higher. The College Board fee waiver is aimed at students who live in the US, so a student testing in Lima should expect to pay in full.
Students from Peru in the US
IIE's Open Doors report counted 5,667 students from Peru enrolled at US colleges and universities in 2024/25, up from 5,505 the year before and 3,556 in 2020/21. About 46 percent of them, 2,599 students, were undergraduates. The states hosting the most are Florida, New York, California, Massachusetts and Texas. These are students already enrolled in the US, not applicants.
