About

Hello! My name is Mari and I've tutored a diverse range of students for the SAT, both in the Math and the R&W sections. My genuine belief is that absolutely anyone can reach their own score goal if they work hard enough for it. Personally, my most recent SAT score was 1550 (770 R&W/780 Math). I didn't start off at a 1550, and neither will you! With enough dedicated practice and guidance, I can help you climb that way up to your dream scores :)
﻿
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.

Hi! My name is Mariana, but I usually go by Mari :) I'm a senior in a dual enrollment-specialized high school and my SAT score stands within the 99th percentile. Over my time in the American school system, I've learned that improvement is always possible as long as you understand what works for you and how to take full advantage of your resources. I adore pre-20th century literature, as well as philosophy. I hope that by being here I may help others in all academic endeavors!
