About

(MORE SESSIONS TO BE ADDED SOON!) 
The SAT may seem hard, but as I have learned there are many different ways to solve problems. In reality, you do not have to memorize every concept, during this course, we will go over important concepts, and tricks to get around certain questions! 
I will try to keep this class small so I can spend time addressing the concerns of every student individually!
Every day we will start class with a mini-timed practice quiz that covers the topic of the day. After this quiz, we will go through every question breaking down the incorrect and correct answers.

Text Structure & Pupose + Form, Structure, and Sense
Text Structure and purpose usually ask about how the text is structured or provide an underlined sentence and asks about the importance of that underlined portion. 
Form structure and sense questions are similar to words in context but instead of testing on vocabulary they test subject-verb agreement, verb forms, plural and possessive nouns, etc. (This session will be longer! Lots to cover if you want to be prepared for the Octomber SAT)
