No More Guessing! SAT Reading: Detail Questions-Cert. Teacher/Exper. SAT Tutor

Now is the time to start prepping for the Spring 2025 SAT Season (March 8, May 3, June 7). If you find yourself guessing on reading questions, this is the series of classes for you: No More Guessing!

In Lesson 4, you'll learn how to approach Detail questions: how to identify them, how to read the passage with the purpose of finding the clues to the answers, how to avoid the traps the SAT lays, and what to do if you're spending too much time on one question. You'll also learn some strategies for careful reading that will also help you read textbooks and other reading materials. We'll also practice with questions from the College Board Question Bank. 

Instruction consists of teacher-made instructional material including slide presentations with original questions modeled after the College Board's questions. Additionally, I highly recommend that students purchase this book for homework practice: The Critical Reader: The Complete Guide to SAT Reading by Erica L. Meltzer. It has a lot of practice for each question type. The student will also use the College Board Question Bank for practice. 

In order to see a score increase, it's essential that students not only attend the session but also continue to practice after the class, take practice tests, and, if necessary, study vocabulary on their own. I offer Vocabulady's SAT Vocab Game Night classes on Outschool to help with this. They're fun and effective. 

I am patient, kind, empathetic, creative, and flexible, and your success is my goal. I've spent two years studying the reading and writing section of the test, and I know what you need to look for when you're answering questions. I can also help you see why the wrong answers are wrong. (And my jokes are hilarious.
