Subject Material - We do it all! Math, Reading and Writing

We show our students exactly how to handle every part of the test. We come to a lesson prepared with our own 250 page comprehensive SAT manual. 

Here's what our students will learn:

  Math Tricks: We really hate to call them tricks, because they are actually very clever alternate methods for solving SAT math problems. Let's just say they are your best lifeline when things get tough!

  Math Concepts: You didn't think we were going to only teach tricks did you?! We will teach every Math concept that is necessary to ace the SAT and tailor everything to the student's specific needs.

  Critical Reading: That's what they call it now, but we still call it 'Reading Comprehension'. We teach specific techniques that show a student what to look for when reading an SAT passage. You only need to glean a few small things from an SAT reading passage to do well, but don't think we're going to give away all our secrets here!

  Vocabulary: Many students get very stressed over vocabulary on the SAT. However, the real trick is knowing how to use the vocabulary you already have to. It's not that hard to do once we show you!

  Grammar and Writing Skills: Have people been telling you that this section doesn't matter because it is new? The truth is that it does does matter  - the college board added this section because colleges had been complaining that the SAT did not provide an accurate way to evaluate a student's writing skills. Colleges asked for it and that means we need to pay attention to it!

  Essay Writing: We've got it covered. We teach you how to write a great SAT essay by literally giving you a step-by-step formula. It doesn't matter if you are a good writer or not because techniques for writing an SAT essay can be easily learned. It's all in the format!
