It doesn't matter if you're just starting out on your SAT journey or if you've been studying for several months already, Varsity Tutors can help get you into the Nashville SAT prep course that's right for you. Like many high school students, you may be thinking about sending out college applications. However, you must first take an admissions exam such as the SAT before you start that process. Colleges will weigh many different factors when they look at your application, including your exam scores. This is why it's important to put forth your best effort when studying for this test.
If you are currently attending a school such as University School of Nashville or Hume-Fogg Academic Magnet School, then a Nashville SAT course could be an excellent option for you. If you decide to accept this kind of help, you will be able to study with highly qualified instructors and collaborate with your peers. When you're studying for an exam like the SAT, it can be immensely helpful to engage in collaborative lessons, which have been shown to give students a greater understanding of the material.
What concepts will I study in a Nashville SAT course?
The SAT is composed of three primary sections, which include Reading, Writing and Language, and Math. There is also an optional Essay. The entire exam should take you three hours without the Essay section, but you will be allotted 50 extra minutes if do you decide to take the Essay. Since the SAT requires a strong grasp of an array of subjects, it is a good idea to take advantage of a Nashville SAT course that can help boost your confidence in your own abilities.
The Reading section tests your ability to read passages and extract meaning and logical inferences from them. This means that you must be able to efficiently read over the given passage, understand the main points, and make use of context clues to determine the meaning of words that you might not know. It requires a strong ability to critically analyze text. Here you will have 52 questions and 65 minutes to answer them.
When you get to the Writing and Language section, you must answer multiple-choice questions that will be based upon passages. In this section, you will be exercising your editorial skills to improve the grammatical and stylistic content of the piece. This requires a deep understanding of English grammar and style. For instance, you may have to identify awkward sentence structure and make decisions to improve the content. Here you will be given 44 questions and 35 minutes to respond to them.
In the Math section of the SAT, you must answer a series of 58 math questions. You will have 80 minutes to answer these questions. Please note that this section is divided into two parts: a 25-minute session where no calculator is allowed, and a longer, 55-minute section where you are permitted to use a calculator. Here you must demonstrate a thorough understanding of how to solve problems in fields such as algebra and data analysis. This will require a razor-sharp ability to carry out mathematical calculations both quickly and efficiently.
The Essay portion of the SAT, if you decide to take it, will examine your ability to critically evaluate an author's argument. This will require you to provide evidence from the text and examine how the author makes use of persuasive strategies. Note that you will not be expressing agreement or disagreement with the author's argument, but rather evaluating the argument itself. You will need to know how to develop a well-organized essay that demonstrates a strong command of written English.
What can a Nashville SAT class do for me?
When you sign up for SAT classes, you will be able to access a collaborative virtual classroom with a highly trained instructor who supports you in your mission to succeed on the SAT. In your class, you will be able to work with your instructor and your classmates to improve upon the skills that are necessary for the SAT. You'll have the chance to discuss the SAT topics that you may be struggling with. For instance, if you have a question about the most efficient strategy for solving an algebra problem, this is something that your instructor can help you work through. Perhaps you want clarification on a grammatical concept. This, too, is something you can work on in the class. Additionally, you'll be able to collaborate with classmates who may also be able to provide insight into the topic. If you are really struggling with a topic, you can even speak with your instructor one-on-one. The instructor can provide you with personalized instruction to help clarify the topics that you are having a hard time with.
Since you are most likely going through a busy time in your life, classes have been designed to be convenient. New class sections begin on a weekly basis. When you sign up for classes, you may choose between a two-week session and a four-week session.
Also, don't forget that these classes take place in an entirely virtual environment, so you don't even have to leave the house! Provided that you have a strong internet connection, you may participate in classes from any location that you want. You won't even have to worry about parking or any of the other hassles involved in getting to a physical classroom.
How can I join a Nashville SAT class?
Investing the appropriate amount of time and effort that it takes to succeed on the SAT will pay off for years to come. Not only will classes enable you to feel more confident when you sit down to take the SAT, but they could also teach you skills that will be valuable throughout your academic career. You've already put a lot of effort into your education, so why not take it to the next level?

...company while I was a student at Columbia University in New York. While there, I had the opportunity to teach students of all backgrounds and levels of ability.

My expertise in "big test" prep translates to the regular school environment as...

...I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems....

I believe all students can learn, it just takes the teacher and tutor to find how that student can best understand the content given to them. That's my goal with working through Varsity Tutors, to find that place of understanding with students to help them connect with the content they're learning.... My teaching philosophy is that every student can learn. We as tutors have a great opportunity to find the right method to engage a student to grasp a concept. It is our job to find the right key to unlock the potential in every student.
