About

Running out of time? Keep getting stuck because every problem looks too much like Calculus? Wondering what it takes to understand and solve these problems quickly and efficiently? This series is for you! In these sessions, we'll cover all of the nuanced SAT Math hacks you won't find in the College Board's review guides, and that high-scoring test-takers use to maximize accuracy and minimize confusion and time spent. This includes (but is not limited to): ✅ Simple tricks that will save you valuable minutes on even the most complex quadratic equations questions! ✅ The method of "solving for the expression," and how it can eliminate hassle from systems and linear equations! ✅ The value of knowing the Pythagorean triplets, and how you can use them to find the dimensions of any right triangle in seconds! By the end of this series, you'll be able to: 🌐 Apply the tips and tricks you learn to real College Board-approved SAT Math problems ⏩ Quicken your ability to tackle seemingly complex problems on the SAT without losing accuracy 💪 Build your confidence on the SAT by expanding your problem-solving toolkit! 🛑 PREREQUISITES: Please come prepared to each session with a writing utensil and scratch paper. An approved graphing calculator is recommended but not required. All score ranges welcome!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

This is only a five-part series and it leads directly up to the 11/4 SAT, so it is within your best interest to come to every session. That being said, you are free to come on your own time!

About the Tutor

👋 I'm Owen! As a tutor on Schoolhouse, I take a tailored approach to helping you understand the material on your own terms, rather than following a rigid study plan--in other words, ask me anything, and I'll fully commit to clarifying your concerns and working toward your success! I'm a rising college freshman from New York. When I'm not tutoring or grinding out homework, I enjoy reading, running, listening to classical music, and playing Minecraft. Can't wait to meet you!
