About

Hi there!😸🌟As a 1470 scorer (730 reading, 740 math), I want to lead each and every one of you to achieve an amazing score on the SAT so you can score even higher than I did! I studied tirelessly for the SAT for nearly six months straight, took the test twice, and participated in two SAT boot camps, so rest assured that I have gathered some amazing tips and tricks along the way to share with all of you. Let’s get that score up to 700+❗💯
﻿
This boot camp is a judgment-free zone. I really hope that we can feel comfortable with each other so that everyone can share their thoughts and ideas without any worries. I know how it feels to be anxious or scared to speak up in a room full of other people. Nobody here is going to judge you for speaking up! We are all in this together💫💖
﻿
I am so excited to meet you all! I hope that you can leave this bootcamp feeling confident and ready to ace that SAT. See you all soon✌️
﻿
In this course, I will share my personal study guide I used to study for the SAT. This includes resources from YouTube, BlueBook, and Khan Academy, as well as some additional sources. 
﻿
As always, I encourage everyone here to share their own tips/tricks they have learned along the way. I know that you all have amazing things to contribute to this course! We do not all learn the same way, which is why it is so important that we can share our diverse opinions and ideas as a group. 😺
﻿
﻿

This four-week tutoring series will help you prepare for your upcoming 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. 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.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

Please do not miss more than one session over the four weeks, as that will negatively affect your learning and may also take up a spot from another learner who could have attended every session.

If you reach two unexcused absences, your tutor may remove you from this series.

Note from Schoolhouse: This series has sessions with required attendance. If you need to miss a required session, submit an absence using the "Submit Excused Absence" button on the series page. Multiple unexcused absences may lead to a suspension of your Schoolhouse account.

About the Tutor

Hello everyone! I'm currently enrolled in classes at my local community college. Outside of academics, my hobbies include cooking and baking. I own a cookie-baking business, which is supported by a collaboration with a family farm that sells my products through their website. I am really excited to start my own SAT tutoring boot camp! I feel confident in my abilities to pass along the information I have learned to others and I hope that I can lead others to achieve a high score just as I did :)
