Every week, I will provide detailed explanations for a brand new ACT reading passage from the Official ACT Prep Guide 2022-2023 Edition. There are 24 reading passages in this book, and each week we will go through 1 passage each week. Students may join or leave the class at any time, since each class will present explanations for a unique ACT reading passage. After we have covered all 24 passages in 24 weeks, we will begin to use the Official ACT Prep Guide 2023-2024 Edition, which will be published by then. Students are required to purchase the Official ACT Prep Guide 2022-2023 Edition (at the link below) to participate in class. 

It is important to note that ACT Reading passages do not build on each other. Each and every passage is a stand alone assessment that tests the same skill set. Students do not need any prior experience with the ACT Reading section in order to be successful in this ongoing course. The "Beginner Level" is meant only to denote the speed of instruction and depth of explanations, and is not an indication that students need to have completed a certain number of ACT Reading passages prior to joining the class. 

Week of August 7th: Reading Passage I from ACT Practice Test #1 in the Official ACT Prep Guide 2022-2023 Edition 
Week of August 14th: Reading Passage II from ACT Practice Test #1 in the Official ACT Prep Guide 2022-2023 Edition 
Week of August 21st: Reading Passage III from ACT Practice Test #1 in the Official ACT Prep Guide 2022-2023 Edition 
Week of August 28th: Reading Passage IV from ACT Practice Test #1 in the Official ACT Prep Guide 2022-2023 Edition 

Since there is no end date for this class and it will be taught on an on-going basis, a new passage will be taught every single week. We will never cycle back to the beginning, but will cover 1 passage per week from the 2022-2023 version of the Official ACT Prep Guide each week (over the course of 24 weeks since there are 24 reading passages in this book.) At the end of the 24 weeks, we will repeat this pattern with the newly released 2023-2024 Official ACT Prep Guide. In other words, the same reading passage will never be taught twice. A brand new passage will be taught every single week for as long as the course continues, using the Official ACT Prep Guide. A new passage will be covered in every single class session. 

I will teach my signature methods for answering questions on the reading section of the ACT. Students will learn how to efficiently manage their time on this section, how to understand what the questions are asking, and how to easily eliminate incorrect answer choices. They will also learn how to navigate the passages without getting overwhelmed and build confidence in their ability to answer ACT reading questions. By the end of each class, students will be able to explain the steps for navigating questions smoothly and demonstrate their understanding by applying the methods on a practice assignment. 

This class is designed specifically for students who currently have a score of 20 or lower on the Reading section of the ACT, or who simply prefer a slower pace of instruction and more detailed explanations.
