About

The SAT doesn’t measure genius, just teachable skills. With the right preparation, you can score like a top test-taker. I’ve helped students raise their scores into the 1400s and 1500s, and many of them now tutor on Schoolhouse themselves. 
﻿
As a Senior SAT Tutor with a 1520 score, I’ve guided students toward proven results you can trust.

(out of 30k tutors on Schoolhouse)
﻿
In this course, we’ll cover all four SAT Reading and Writing sections: Information & Ideas, Craft & Structure, Expression of Ideas and Standard English Conventions
﻿
Over twelve sessions, we’ll focus on the question types within these four sections the College Board repeats, building strategies to work efficiently and avoid traps.
﻿
Each lesson comes with clear notes, curated practice, and access to the best free SAT resources, along with original guides I’ve created to simplify advanced topics. 
﻿
We’ll use educator-level College Board question banks without spoiling Bluebook tests, so you’ll still have official exams to track your growth.
﻿
The format is flexible. Each session stands on its own, so you can join at any point and attend the lessons that target your weaknesses, or stay for the entire series to build complete mastery. 
﻿
My students consistently report not only score gains but also newfound confidence and calm on test day, knowing they’ve seen the toughest material in advance. 
﻿
Whether you’re trying to break through a 600 plateau or aiming for a 750+, this course will give you the tools, resources, and mindset to make it happen. 
﻿
Join anytime and take a step towards excellence in SAT English!
﻿
﻿
I highly recommend joining my SAT English supplemental course that meets right after this course in order to get additional practice on the topics we cover in class in addition to any topics that you and other students request.
