Our Curriculum - We do it all! Math, Reading and Writing

We show our students exactly how to handle every part of the SAT. Our curriculum is the most refined and easy to understand that you will find anywhere.

Here's what students will learn from us:

  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 also teach the Math concepts that are necessary to solve SAT Math problems.

  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 of 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 get questions right. It's not that hard to do once you know how!

  Grammar and Writing: Have people been telling you that the SAT Writing section doesn't matter because it is new? The truth is that it is not so new anymore and that it does does matter. This section was added to the SAT in 2005 because colleges had been complaining that the SAT did not provide an accurate way to evaluate a student's writing skills. Around 50% - 60% of colleges are currently looking at the Writing section and that means we need to pay attention to it! We will teach our students 25 Grammar Rules and 3 punctuation rules that will lead to an amazing SAT writing score. It's as simple as that. Learn the rules - get a good Writing score.

  Essay Writing: We've got it covered. We teach you how to write a solid SAT essay by literally giving you a step-by-step formula. It doesn't matter if you are a good writer or a bad writer because techniques for writing an SAT essay can be easily learned. You just gotta give them what they want and you'll get a good essay score.
