SAT Math Review – Below 600

Instructor

Kennon McCaa will teach the SAT Math Review – Below 600 summer program. Kennon is an expert on SAT prep and jokes that despite becoming a math teacher, his 14 year-old son got a better SAT math score than he did (a perfect 800)! Kennon will use his in-depth knowledge of what is (and what is not) on the SAT to review the key topics assessed on the SAT math exam.

Dates & Cost

Registration is now closed for this class. We strongly encourage students new to the SAT or students with scores below 600 to schedule individual tutoring throughout the summer.

This is a one week program. The dates are August 5 – 9 from 4:00 PM – 6:30 PM at Transformative Tutoring in Osprey. This course is priced at $400.Don’t want to wait until August to start practicing for the SAT? Great! Students enrolled in this program will receive $10 off per hour for all individual SAT tutoring from June 1 to August 30, 2019.

There is no better time to study for the SAT than in the summer! This course is scheduled for the end of summer so that students will receive a great warm-up for the school year and focused SAT practice right before the August 24th SAT test. Hopefully, this will enable all students to start the school year successfully and allow for a few weeks of extra SAT practice. The SAT is a reflection of a student’s preparation and motivation as well as their math skills. All students who have completed Algebra 2 know everything they need to know to get a perfect score on the SAT. Unfortunately, most students are too busy during the school year and fail to practice adequately, if at all.

Who Should Attend

Students who have completed Algebra 2 with a grade of B or higher who have never taken the SAT or have an SAT math score below 600 and looking to improve on their existing score and committed enough to complete one hour of homework each night. Proof of completion of Algebra 2 with a grade of B or higher is required for admission to this course. This course is not suitable for students who have not completed Algebra 2 or received a grade of C or below in Algebra 2. Students who do not meet the prerequisites for this course should schedule individual SAT tutoring.
