About

Hey, my name is Samaira! I'm looking forward to offering you some guidance as you prepare for the SAT. I've been practicing for the SAT for a while now, and I hope to be able to share some of my learning with you.
﻿
This four-week tutoring series will help you prepare for your upcoming SAT in Reading & Writing. 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.

I'm a high school junior from Katy, Texas, interested in helping fellow students with SAT prep. I love playing my violin, writing, and watching history videos in my free time. Hi everyone! My name is Samaira (you can also call me Sami), and I'm a high school senior from Katy, Texas. My hobbies are learning pop songs on the piano, playing the violin, writing, learning about quirky historical events, and reading books (particularly books based on ancient mythologies). I took the SAT last year and hope to share the resources and tips that helped me with others on this platform! I would say my strongest subjects are chemistry, world/US history, and writing. These are also the subjects that I've enjoyed the most throughout high school--fascinating subjects that I'd love to share with everyone. Please reach out to me if you need help in any of these subjects. I am more than happy to help!
