About

Nothing complicated here, just learning and practicing for the SAT Reading and Writing sections. Sessions are usually every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday (MWF) at 3:00-3:40 PM PST. We'll alternate between practicing single passages in reading and writing each day from a real practice test. I may hold optional weekend office hours. Links to the test questions and answers PDFs are in the group chat. Direct any questions/comments to the discussion below, or directly message me:)

Schedule

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Very flexible, as each session stands on its own. HOWEVER, because I use a real practice test, I highly encourage you to attend all my sessions to maximize your "yield" from this test. ALSO, please message me when you cannot attend so I know how many students to expect.
