About

Hi there! I'm Gavin, and I look forward to supporting you on your SAT journey.

I have taken the SAT twice myself, increasing my Reading & Writing score by seventy points between those attempts. I'm excited to share my experiences with you and help you improve your scores as well!

Over the next four weeks, we will prepare for your upcoming SAT in Reading & Writing. By the end of the series, you will have completed several practice tests and worked through numerous problems from previous SATs, which will help boost your confidence for the exam. Each session will be a small-group experience with me and other learners who are also getting ready for the SAT. Since it's a small group, you can expect highly interactive sessions as we work together to sharpen your skills.

This is just a friendly reminder to keep your cameras and microphones on so we can get to know each other better and have a more engaging learning experience. If, for any reason, you can’t do this, no worries—just give me a heads-up beforehand so I can make a note.

Hi, everyone! I am a senior in high school, and this year, I am taking Calculus and Physics through dual enrollment. I took AP Chemistry and AP Precalculus last year, so I can help in those areas as well as more elementary mathematics courses. In my free time, I like to play the piano. Though it is mostly classical stuff, I have begun to compose some of my own pieces.

What you'll do
