About

Hey everyone! I'm Amelia and I'm looking forward to working together to build skills for the Reading and Writing sections of the SAT. I'm excited to get to know all of you. In my free time, I like to read and draw. I've helped tutor my classmates in the past, and I like to focus on building a logic behind what we're learning instead of trying to memorize answers. We'll be learning and growing together, so know that it's okay to not be perfect! I hope that through this program we can learn a lot and get more comfortable with the SAT :)

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.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please do not miss more than one session over the four weeks, as that will negatively affect your learning and may also take up a spot from another learner who could have attended every session.

If you reach two unexcused absences, your tutor may remove you from this series.

Note from Schoolhouse: This series has sessions with required attendance. If you need to miss a required session, submit an absence using the "Submit Excused Absence" button on the series page. Multiple unexcused absences may lead to a suspension of your Schoolhouse account.

About the Tutor

Hi I’m Amelia and I’m here to gather all the information I can to improve and prepare myself for my future. I enjoy teaching and helping others, whether that be through peer tutoring or community service. I like to read, draw, and play a few instruments. My favorite subject is probably science :)
