An astrophysics degree from the University of Arizona and time spent programming for NASA missions like Cassini and Galileo means Chris brings genuine comfort with the quantitative reasoning and data interpretation that trip students up on the SAT. He scored a 1400 and breaks the exam into manageabl...

A 1450 SAT scorer with a creative writing degree, Kelly brings particular strength to the Evidence-Based Reading and Writing sections, where she teaches students to identify how authors build arguments and use textual evidence to eliminate trap answers. She also breaks down the grammar questions by ...

Medical school demands the same skill the SAT rewards — extracting the right answer from dense, unfamiliar material under serious time pressure. Alex, who scored a 1590, teaches students to treat the Reading section like a data problem: find the claim, locate the evidence, eliminate what doesn't mat...

I am a graduate student at Arizona State University studying Human and Social Dimensions of Science and Technology, and am passionate about the value of education at all levels. Previously I worked at the US Department of Energy on energy technology in Washington, DC. I have enjoyed setting up roots...

Chemical engineering coursework at ASU Barrett means Alex lives in the kind of algebraic reasoning and data interpretation that dominates the SAT Math section — and his 1560 composite shows he can execute on the verbal side just as effectively. He teaches students to spot the recurring grammar patte...

What separates a 1500 from a 1580 on the SAT often comes down to discipline in the last 20 minutes of each section — knowing which questions to double-check and which traps to sidestep under pressure. Jake scored a 1580 and now teaches the specific pacing and elimination strategies that work across ...

Having tutored across sciences, math, history, and English — and scored a 1550 on the SAT herself — Amanda covers the full exam without needing to hand off sections to another tutor. Her anthropology and biology training built the kind of close-reading and data-interpretation habits that translate d...

What sets Ajay apart for SAT prep is the combination of electrical engineering training and genuine strength in English — he teaches across both sides of the exam without switching gears, from algebraic reasoning and data interpretation in the Math section to passage structure and grammar logic in R...

Lindsay's biology and math double background at the University of Arizona means she can coach both sides of the SAT without switching gears — moving from algebraic reasoning and data interpretation on the Math section to passage analysis and evidence-based questions on the Reading and Writing side. ...

Elizabeth's master's work in Chinese politics required the kind of dense, argument-heavy reading that mirrors exactly what students face in SAT evidence-based passages — parsing complex claims, weighing competing interpretations, and identifying how authors support their positions. She scored a 1500...

Yale trained Annelisa to read like a critic and argue like a journalist — skills that map directly onto the SAT's evidence-based reading and writing sections, where identifying an author's purpose and supporting claims with textual evidence decides most questions. She scored a 1570 on the SAT hersel...

Most SAT score jumps come from fixing a handful of repeatable mistakes — misreading quadratic word problems, rushing through no-calculator algebra, or second-guessing evidence-pair questions. Yurok's dual physics and math training at Emory means he can diagnose exactly where those errors originate a...

Math research involving Markov chains and combinatorial optimization at Smith College means Emily thinks in exactly the structured, pattern-driven way the SAT rewards — especially on the no-calculator algebra and data analysis questions where setting up the problem correctly matters more than raw co...

Gordon's SAT prep breaks each section into repeatable strategies — identifying trap answers in Evidence-Based Reading, applying algebra shortcuts in the no-calculator section, and structuring grammar fixes around a handful of recurring rules. His experience through Teach for America and mentoring AS...

Three years as a primary instructor at a Kumon Math and Reading Center gave Megan a clear picture of where foundational gaps show up under pressure — exactly the kind that cost students easy points on SAT Math and Evidence-Based Reading. She scored a 1540 on the SAT herself and uses that experience ...
