SAT Math 800/800 | I specialize in helping students who struggle

Cooper K.

I scored an 800/800 on the math section of the SAT, without extra time or other accommodations, even though I went through high school with undiagnosed and unmanaged ADHD and Dyscalculia (math dyslexia). I am also a National Merit Finalist after scoring above the national cutoff for the PSAT. I only learned of my handicaps after being recruited and matriculating as one of the top 50 applicants to the University of Michigan college of engineering, where I have since graduated with a Data Science Engineering degree. Despite these obstacles, I secured a perfect score on the math section of the SAT after delving into the research behind standardized exams, learning as a whole, as well as every mathematical trick / shortcut imaginable.

For over ten years I've adapted and developed my tutoring style to fit each student's needs, and have helped many transition from average to top grades. My methods go beyond content delivery ~ I emphasize understanding the student's learning style and enhancing test-taking strategies. My personalized approach stems from the belief that mastering material and navigating exams are equally critical and distinct skills that must be independently assessed and strengthened.

My tutoring experience spans from high school to college levels in subjects ranging from chemistry to advanced calculus. I've worked in various settings, ensuring that each session is as unique as the student's needs. My professional background as a software engineer enriches my teaching, allowing me to offer real-world, practical applications of complex theories.

In every session, my goal is to demystify intimidating concepts and inspire confidence by leading with intuition. With a decade of experience and a personal understanding of overcoming learning impediments, I'm committed to helping students excel in SAT Math and beyond.
