Zakaria - Get to know your SAT tutor
I am a Bachelor’s graduate from one of the most prestigious liberal arts colleges in the United States, with a passion for helping students achieve their academic goals. I specialize in SAT Math, Reading, Writing, and Verbal preparation, providing personalized instruction tailored to each student’s strengths, weaknesses, and learning style. My teaching focuses on building a strong understanding of core concepts rather than memorization, allowing students to improve both their scores and their overall academic confidence. I create customized study plans designed to maximize progress, whether you’re aiming for your first SAT or striving for a top score. During our sessions, we work through practice questions, full-length practice tests, and real exam-style problems while developing effective test-taking strategies, time management skills, and critical thinking techniques. I also provide detailed feedback, identify areas for improvement, and adjust lessons to ensure steady progress. My goal is to make every student feel prepared, confident, and capable on test day. I am committed to helping you reach your target SAT score and supporting you every step of the way toward your academic success.

SAT concepts taught by Zakaria
The Student and Tutor discussed the optimal structure for their SAT preparation, agreeing to dedicate the initial 13 sessions entirely to Math. The lesson focused on quadratic equations, covering their graphical representation as parabolas, key features like the vertex and intercepts, and how to interpret different equation forms. For homework, the Student will receive 3-5 practice questions on quadratic equations and will complete a diagnostic SAT Math test before the next session.
