The SAT Reading section is really an argument-analysis exam, and Elena — currently in law school at the University of Chicago — spends her days dissecting exactly these kinds of dense, evidence-based passages. She teaches students to identify what each question is actually asking before returning to...

Most SAT Reading mistakes come from one place: students answer based on what they think the passage means instead of what the text actually says. Asta, a University of Chicago political science graduate trained in close textual analysis, teaches a disciplined evidence-based approach — pairing every ...

I'm referring to math, of course, but I didn't always like the subject. Until about age 16, I thought of math as a boring, mind-numbing process of blindly memorizing formulas and then forgetting them after the test, but a series of wonderful teachers showed me the truth. I had thought that everythin...

Most SAT Reading mistakes come from one place: students answer based on what they think the passage means instead of what it actually says. Jessica, who earned a 1590 SAT, teaches a disciplined evidence-matching approach — pairing every answer choice with a specific line or phrase — that strips away...

I have been tutoring math for over four years, both at Fenwick High School (where I attended) as a peer tutor and with Mathnasium. I teach Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Geom...

The SAT Reading section is really a test of argumentation — can you identify a passage's central claim, trace how evidence supports it, and spot where the author shifts tone? Jeff's philosophy degree from Princeton and his history M.A. from Berkeley mean he's spent over a decade doing exactly that w...

Industrial engineering trains you to optimize systems — and Oliver treats SAT Reading the same way, breaking each passage into a process where students identify the author's central claim first, then systematically match evidence to answer choices instead of re-reading entire paragraphs. His 1590 co...

Outside of school/tutoring, I spend time volunteering for my university's annual Dance Marathon fundraiser, a member of Camp Kesem, working as a study group mentor, and I'm al...

I'm thrilled to work with anybody on any subjects of interest, reach out with any questions!

Scoring 1560 on the SAT gave Sanjana firsthand insight into the Reading section's structure — particularly how every correct answer traces back to specific textual evidence, not general impressions. She teaches students to identify the function of each passage segment and eliminate answer choices sy...

I am comfortable tutoring a variety of subjects, I am most passionate about writing and language, and I truly believe that strong writing skills are an asset in every area of life. Through my experience as an after-school program manager, I learned to build relationships and work well with students,...

The SAT Reading section rewards a specific kind of close reading: finding what the passage actually says versus what it implies, and matching evidence across paired questions. Sam, who scored 1490 on the SAT, teaches students to treat each passage like a data set — extracting claims, identifying str...
