About

Hi, my name is Zach and I am excited to help you prepare for the November SAT. Over the course of our training, I hope to help you develop the skills and “reader awareness” that has allowed me to do well on my own SATs. While I view language as a creative art, I am very receptive to the impact that words have on an author's message, a skill I hope to share. Over the course of our training, we will focus on boosting our reading and writing scores through a focused review of questions and paying close attention to what the questions are actually asking. I am happy to share my lessons learned and excited to meet everyone.

This four-week tutoring series will help you prepare for your upcoming SAT in both Reading and Writing & Language. By the end of the series, you will have completed multiple practice tests and worked through a number of problems from previous SATs, helping you build confidence for your upcoming exam. You’ll spend each session with me and a small group of other learners who are also working towards taking the SAT. Since it’s a small group, you can expect sessions to be very interactive as you work together towards improving your SAT skills as much as you can! Note: Cameras should be on so we can all get to know each other! If you have a specific reason why you can’t have your camera on, please notify me ahead of time.
