When I am not tutoring, I enjoy baking desserts, reading novels, and sketching cartoons.... See one,...

Rockville SAT Tutoring FAQ
The Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) is a critical and challenging test that many students struggle to prepare for on their own. Let Varsity Tutors find you a skilled SAT tutor in Rockville, MD, who can offer your child individualized one-on-one attention.
Most colleges and universities either require or accept the SAT, so a high score is important. The test consists of two main sections, Evidence-Based Reading and Writing and Math. Both sections contain three subsections that test a range of language arts, reading comprehension, and problem solving skills. The reading and writing sections test the student's ability to read and analyze written passages, rather than testing the basics of word usage and sentence structure. The Math section tests knowledge of algebra, trigonometry, and geometry as well as some advanced math involving functions that STEM careers require. The scores on these two main sections are combined into a composite score of 400-1600. An optional essay section assesses the student's ability to analyze an argument and write about it effectively. The essay is scored separately, so it does not affect the composite test score.
