About

Hello! This series provides learners with a strong foundation to solve any questions they may encounter. Each session will be dedicated to a certain topic and will start with an explanation of the topic and learner questions, followed by a short quiz to ensure the topic has been effectively grasped. We will then go over the questions and anything that is not clear.
The rest of the session will be group problem-solving- everyone will solve the problem or problem set and we will go through the methodology used to solve it.
Please be ready to take notes during the learning sections, as we will be going over different ways to solve problems but also which methods are most time effective.
At the end of this series, you will not only have a good understanding of the topics covered but also an effective list of strategies for approaching problems even if you are unsure about the exact content. We will cover everything from grammar to structure and analysis.
﻿
International students are highly encouraged to join- I've studied abroad in Spain, Turkey, and China and I have C1-C2 certifications for them. I can answer questions and explain topics in any of the languages above.

About the Tutor

Hi everyone! I'm Mar, a rising high school senior in New York City. My academic interests range from STEM to humanities, but my most knowledgeable area is Science and medicine. I speak English, Turkish, Spanish, and Mandarin fluently, so I am more than happy to translate or explain any content. My favorite hobby is playing the violin, you can always find me in an orchestra!

Session 1

SAT Reading & Writing

Sun Jul 21, 4:00 PM

Welcome! For our first session, we will introduce the materials this series intends to cover, followed by a preliminary quiz (very simple, do not worry) to gauge the level of understanding, followed by going through all the problems.
We will take a break at the 30-minute mark for about 5 minutes, and resume until the final 5 minutes which are reserved for questions. Please bring somewhere to write on for note-taking and problem-solving.
Hope to see you there!!
This session does not have a specific topic, we are starting with a general review.

Session 2

SAT Reading & Writing

Sun Jul 28, 12:00 PM

Topic: Grammar and structure, sentence structure
For our second session, we will start with a 10-minute review of last week's content and any questions.
We will then do an explanation of the following topics:
- Subjects and verbs
- Dependent and independent clauses
Depending on the time, we may cover more topics about structure. There will be time after to ask any questions.
This will be followed by a short quiz: You will be given 15 minutes for the quiz, but it will likely take you less time, and the rest of the 15 minutes will be your break.
Afterward, we will review, and then spend the rest of the session going through questions as a group.
