Assignments
1 hour per week. Homework is optional, but students are not going to understand or get all the information just by attending class. There is so much more to this test. I have worked very hard to create notes and interactive/gamified assignments. They are introduced in Canva. They get to do things such as digital escape rooms and other puzzles that go along with notes. They get points to for doing them, which is registered on a Leaderboard.Assessment
I always know what kind of understanding is happening because I am constantly talking with the students and asking questions. I can tell if they understand the rules. Sometimes, If I need to know more, I will have them do a small selection of questions from a practice test so I can get a sense of what they know and how much time it is taking them to do it. Also, in a couple of weeks, we are gamifying the classroom even more with an SAT LEADERBOARD. This is optional. However, it will have one or two questions that will help me know if they did the work and might help me understand it. Again, this is optional.Class Experience

I'm still working on some) TABLE OF CONTENTS: WHAT DO I TEACH INCLUDED IN THIS CLASS APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY STRUCTURE WHAT DO I TEACH IN THIS CLASS: -Reading Comprehension: This can be tricky unless you know the test is based on fact. Most students don't know this. It has a huge bearing on your answers. -Conventions of Standard English (Grammar/Punctuation): Learn the rules, and get through these questions FAST! Amazing shortcuts if you are willing to learn grammar and punctuation a little differently. -Math: Math concepts range from basic to advanced. However, they are not as bad as they seem. Many depend on logic, and some have great shortcuts. INCLUDED IN THIS CLASS: -Notes-Made by me and specifically related to what we learn in class -Optional Homework that are gamifeid and interactive -Extra SAT questions embedded into homework and notes, complete with answer explanations -Additional concept worksheets for math support -Prompt feedback and communication with parents -Supplementary tips, videos, and class slides -A relaxed and approachable atmosphere to encourage questions and comfort COST VS VALUE: You get all the things above in a comprehensive tutoring experience, in addition to a teacher who was trained for this test and devotes a significant amount of time in making this the best class possible to help you know this test. APPROACH, STRUCTURE, AND THE GAMIFIED CLASSROOM: -I provide a comfortable space where students will interact with me without fear of being wrong or hurried. -I strive to increase student understanding by going the extra mile when the student doesn't understand something, communicating effectively, and asking questions. THE GAMIFIED CLASSROOM: This means in additional to real SAT questions in class, occassionally we do games to help students learn grammar rules, how to do math, or things to look for in Reading Comp. Homework assignments are also gamified and engaging with puzzles, escape rooms and more. EXPERIENCE AND TRAINING: --Specialilzed training in SAT preparation by an expert who has studied the SAT extensively. -Three years of SAT prep tutoring on Outschool, both in paper and digital formats -Bachelor's degree with ongoing education toward two additional degrees -ESL certification -Former BookNook teacher -13 years of teaching experience in both traditional and online settings -Also a Writing instructor on Outschool A FEW OTHER THINGS: -Cameras must be on during class to ensure engagement. -No video sharing allowed. -Outschool policy state I stay in class 10 minutes if not one is showing. If you are going to be later than that, send me a message so I stay. Once class begins, I cannot reschedule or refund any money. -Please leave a review
