SAT Reading & Writing Expert | Former College Scholarship App Reviewer

Brian K.

I have dedicated more than 10 years assisting high school students with test prep and college admissions. I am passionate about sharing my strategies as well as original practice tests and study guides so that students can get a unique experience on their way to building their confidence and getting their target score. In order to improve an SAT or ACT test score, there are two keys to success: 1) good practice problems and 2) a good understanding of how the test is designed. I use only the best curriculum. If you have already exhausted the free practice tests available online, do not worry. You will have access to original practice tests that will prepare you well for the actual test. And I will guide you to your "matrix" moment (a movie starring Keanu Reeves). Once you fully understand how the test is designed, you will see how various strategies can have a synergistic effect with your skills to improve your score.

Furthermore, I have not only assisted students and families with the college application process but also provided guidance in planning for admissions to the college of their choice. I do not use a cookie-cutter approach. I truly believe that each student is unique in his/her own way, and I will work with you to bring out the best in you. My philosophy is to make your strengths even stronger to truly differentiate you from your competitors rather than to have you play catch up and follow what others are doing. I can provide an "insider" perspective on how applications are evaluated that has helped many students get accepted to their top choice.

I have a degree in History from UCLA. I have worked at an internationally-recognized educational institute as an SAT/ACT teacher and college admissions consultant for more than 10 years. I have also served in the review committee for college scholarship applications. I look forward to working with you!
