Our ACT Tutoring program in Burbank is by far the most specialized in Southern California and possibly even in the country. Our program is so different because of how and why the ACT Tutoring Program was written to begin with. What many people don’t realize is that every large ACT Tutoring company hires writers to put their large programs together. But are these writers in touch with the students' needs by working as ACT tutors in the past? Often times not! Believe it or not, many ACT Tutors in Burbank use courses that are put together by the larger companies and are not written with the typical student in mind. These companies invest heavily in the look and feel of their course, while often times neglect investing critical attention to the minute, individualized details which our company focuses on. Unfortunately, more often than not, a student needs exactly that.
That is why Tier One Tutors was created, and is also why we've been so successful the last few years. The ACT Tutoring program was put together over a long period of time, and is based in part on actual ACT questions. Unlike every other ACT Tutor in Burbank who wrote programs before they even knew what exactly was going to be on the new test, we pushed the money aside and strove for perfection. The fruit of our labor has finally shown through in our specialized and unique approach to the ACT!
The writers of our ACT Tutoring program are the two young, dynamic, and ambitious owners of Tier One Tutors, Steve Dorfman and Brian Mupo. Both of them have spent untold amounts of hours writing and developing this system. Their unique SAT and ACT programs are the backbone of Tier One Tutors which serves all of Southern California, including Burbank.

Burbank
Overview
Burbank is a major city city in Los Angeles Country in Southern California. It is dubbed the Media Capital of the World due to its proximity to Hollywood and the many entertainment media companies that have their headquarters here. It is named after Dr. David Burbank, a dentist and entrepreneur originally from New Hampshire.
Location
Burbank lies 12 miles (19 kilometers) Northwest of the city of Los Angeles. It is situated along two distinct areas, with its Downtown along the slopes of the Verdugo Mountains to the Northeast and the rest in the flatlands of the San Fernando Valley to the west.
The Golden State Highway runs through Burbank.
History
The city of Burbank occupies land that was originally part of two Spanish and Mexican-era colonial land grants, the Rancho San Rafael and Rancho Providencia. It was the sight of a battle that deposed the Spanish Governor of California to be replaced by the Mexican Leader Pio Pico.
Dr. David Burbank established himself in the area by purchasing portions of the former Verdugo and Providencia holdings and raising sheep and wheat during the time the San Fernando Valley became the largest wheat-producing area in Los Angeles county. He began to speculate heavily in land around the area and in Los Angeles.
A group of speculators bought much of Dr. Burbank's land in 1886 for $250,000, after a severe drought. They established the Providencia Land, Water, and Development Company and developed the area as the town named "Burbank". It grew from a farming community through the establishment of cross-country railroads and tram lines to Los Angeles and nearby factories.
Demographics
In 2012 Burbank had a population of 104,391 with a median age of 38.9 years. Their median income was $64,147, which is higher than the California average.
The population is broken down into Causiasian (72%), Hispanic (24%), Asian (11%), African-Americans (2%), and others (11%).
