How I Teach

If you’ve looked at these exams enough, you’ll realize the repetitive nature of their questions. Imagine two different math word problems where only the numbers are different. After you’ve solved one, the second is trivial: you use the new numbers but do the same thing. That’s how ACT/SAT question types are. We get hyper-specific on question types, learn them, and learn their process. It’s not about learning Math, English, or Reading concepts.
