SAT Math Expert Tutor + How to Master Desmos

Haris S.

Hi! My name is Haris, and I am a recent Summa Cum Laude graduate from The Ohio State University with a major in Computer Science and Engineering and a minor in Business. I have over three years of college-level teaching experience and specialize in SAT Math tutoring.

Five years ago, I scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT Math section, giving me a strong firsthand understanding of the content, strategy, and problem-solving skills needed to succeed on the exam. Over the past year, I have helped students improve their SAT Math scores by combining a strong foundation in the underlying math with the new powerful tools available on the digital SAT.

My tutoring focuses heavily on leveraging Desmos to improve both accuracy and speed. I teach students when to graph, how to solve equations efficiently, how to check answers quickly, and how to avoid unnecessary algebra. Used correctly, Desmos can be a major advantage, but students get the best results when they also understand the math behind the problems. Understanding how to use Desmos allows students to accurately answer about 80 percent of sat math problems within seconds. This then leaves much more time for practicing and understanding the more challenging problems to push their scores to the extremes. I help students with algebra, functions, quadratics, word problems, geometry, trigonometry, and data analysis, while also teaching sat-specific strategies, time management, and common question patterns.

My tutoring style is patient, organized, and step-by-step. I focus on helping students build confidence, understand what each question is really asking, and walk into test day with a clear strategy for solving problems accurately and efficiently.
