About

Hi, my name is Gabrielle. Currently, I'm taking a gap year and am looking for opportunities to volunteer and help others. The course that I will be hosting focuses on the Reading and Writing sections of the SAT. During our sessions, we will review key tips on annotating passages and questions, analyzing different types of texts, and summarizing the meaning of the text. Furthermore, we will learn about the basic rules of grammar and punctuation. I am really excited to meet you guys!

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.
