About

Hi everyone, I'm Mina :) Props to you for taking the initiative to sign up for this bootcamp! I'm a high school junior who studied for the SAT last summer, so I will be able to share tips and the study strategies that I used to get an 800 on the Reading & Writing section. I know that this can be a stressful test, so I hope to help you feel more prepared through ample practice during our sessions! This three-week tutoring series will help you prepare for the upcoming June SAT in both Reading and Writing & Language. 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 in June. 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.
