About

Do you find grammar and mechanics rules particularly challenging or annoying? This four-lesson supplement is designed to help you master the Standard English Conventions section of the SAT and significantly improve your score in this area.
﻿
In each session, you'll work with me and a small group of dedicated learners to practice questions, complete practice tests, and ultimately improve your grammar skills.
﻿
Day 1:
 - periods, semicolons, comma + fanboys
 - colons
Day 2:
 - dashes, appositives, comma + dependent clauses
 - name + title
Day 3:
 - pronouns, verb-tenses
 - apostrophes (possessive)
Day 4:
 - dangling modifiers
 - review and extra practice
﻿
*** Prior knowledge is strongly encouraged, as we will be focusing on medium and hard questions 
*** This series covers concepts similar to my "Cramming for Grammar" class, but it's presented more in depth and includes more practice questions.
*** Active verbal participation is strongly encouraged; please ensure that your microphone is functional!

Beyond my year on Schoolhouse, I have tutored students online in various subjects since 2022. I was in precalc honors last year and am currently enrolled in honors English and AP Calc BC. In my spare time, I enjoy classical music and ballet as seen in my profile pic :)
