About

Reading isn’t just about seeing words - it’s about interacting with them.
In this session, you’ll learn how to turn any text into a conversation. Whether you’re reading fiction, nonfiction, or even dense academic articles, we’ll show you how to annotate like a pro - using symbols, questions, highlights, and quick notes that make meaning jump off the page.

This hands-on session will help you:

- Highlight key ideas and arguments

- Spot literary devices and author techniques

- Break down confusing sections

- Ask smart questions as you read

- Prep for essays and exams like the SAT more effectively

Bring a highlighter, a curious mind, and something you’re reading!
