About the Tutor
Hi everyone! My name is Richie, and I've superscored 1590 (with an 800 on the R&W section) in the SAT. I started out in the 1400s, and self-studied my way to a 1590, using free & accessible resources that I'd like to share with all of you. I understand first-hand the struggles of the SAT -- from the complex vocabulary to the often confusing paragraphs -- and my goal is to help everyone demystify the test and achieve your target scores. Some of my hobbies being a huuuuge McLaren fan in Formula 1, listening to music, and exploring new places :)
