About

Hi, my name is Abhi and I have taken the August SAT. I will be your tutor for this bootcamp and I am excited to start teaching you guys! This is the Reading and Writing bootcamp, and I will also be holding a Math bootcamp to prepare for the math section of the digital SAT. 
﻿
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 Abhiraam, but you can call me Abhi and the tutor who will help you reach your dream SAT score. I am currently an incoming junior attending high school in Massachusetts. I took the 2024 August Digital SAT and scored in the 95th percentile, scoring 700+ in reading, writing, and math. Outside of the SAT, I am a student interested in STEM, mainly neuroscience and AI, and how those fields intersect. I have taught 6 highly engaging bootcamps in both sections of the SAT to date and am currently in the process of becoming a senior tutor. In my free time, I like to play jazz piano and run outdoors. I can also assist with math topics such as Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Geometry, and Algebra 2. I am also familiar with Java and Python, so I can help with Computer Science whenever needed.
