About

NOTE: In preparation for the August 28th SAT. CLASSES WILL HAPPEN EVERYDAY OVER THE COURSE OF AUGUST. In this series, lasting through the month of August, we will go over the entire SAT Writing course to help reach your goal score. This series will eliminate all of your weaknesses and introduce you to the most important concepts in SAT writing. An understanding of basic grammar topics is expected, but I will be going over all topics as necessary. Official practice tests will be given every Saturday over the course of this series in order to simulate a real SAT writing environment! Please come prepared for an intensive series, ready to absorb information and have a good time!

About the Tutor

Hi everyone! My name is Sophia and I joined schoolhouse because I know just how valuable tutoring is. I have received help from tutors, family members, and friends throughout my school experience, and I know that without the support I received, I would not be where I am today. I'm super excited to offer my services to schoolhouse and hopefully give back to the community that made me who I am today.
