About

Hello! I'm Josh, and in this course I hope to work with you to untangle one of the more potentially time-consuming components of SAT math - systems of equations. Though often seen as intimidating by first-time test takers, all SAT equation systems can in fact be solved quickly, intuitively, and with only a few techniques! Proficiency and speed with these types of problems will allow you to focus on more work-intensive questions, saving valuable time which could considerably boost your SAT math score.

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

This is a flexible series - if you are not available on a given day, please just let me know in advance. Each session will start with a recap of the past one, and I am available to catch you up one-on-one if needed.
