Our Philosophy

Raising Academics Excellence

Making a Difference in Our Community

1. You students have amazing potentials waiting to be unlocked. The average student only uses 10% of his or her brain.

​

2. We want to help your student to increase that by 1% or 2%, which will put them in the 85, 90, even 99 percentile SAT score in the nation.

​

We have been doing this for years. How do we do that? What is our philosophy & approach?

Our Philosophy

An IBM intern asked Thomas Watson, founder of IBM, how to be successful. Watson answered …

Self-study: 1000 problems, other centers: 4000 problems, our students: 5000-6000

Our Philosophy

An IBM intern asked Thomas Watson, founder of IBM, how to be successful. Watson answered …

• Self-study: 1000 problems
• Other centers: 4000 problems
• Our students: 5000-6000 problems

• Attend all lectures: improve 70-80 points
• Every additional hour spend doing homework daily: improve 30-40 points
• 3 hours of homework a day: improve 150-200 points throughout the course.

Our Philosophy

It’s better to miss 1000 questions before the test than to miss 100 questions on the test day!

We assign a lot of homework and we need YOUR help encouraging/nudging our “Athletes” to get mentally conditioned

Our Philosophy

SAT Prep is more like a sport of mental training than a traditional class at school. It tests both knowledge and mental endurance.

Our Philosophy

Doesn’t matter how good the coaches/teachers are – at the end of the day, the athletes have to work at their own physical or mental training.

In other words, they have to do their homework!

We need your help reminding them daily.

2. Schedule

(www.summersat.net/schedule)

• 10 minutes early: on-time
• On-time: late
• Late: unacceptable

3. Materials

a. eBooks, printouts, software are all included.

b. Item that is not included but really nice to have: Windows laptop – to watch videos and run my software. MacBooks are okay but we have to tweak them.

c. Item that is not included but really nice to have:

• Rocketbook Notebook. Students can easily submit their homework $23. -
• Without this notebook, they still can submit homework by taking pictures of their work, upload to my GoogleDrive to be checked; however, this notebook allows searching and annotation, so it’s very useful.
• After they use up all the pages, they just need to use a wet paper towel to clean the whole notebook and re-use it. I’m not affiliated with RocketBook, I just find it useful. They can re-use after this class - in HS or college.
