My instructor was Ilia Kolmagorov and he was absolutely amazing. He was very engaging and captivating and was great at conveying the information. His tactics such as refocusing exercises, and using humor to help with memorization were very effective. So far my PSAT score has improved by 190 points with one more practice test to go. Aside from Mr. Kolmagorov’s own teaching methods, the content taught in the course was extremely helpful. There are numerous strategies that I have now fully adopted to my test taking skill set for the SAT or for other school tests. Strategies like BOSS (where you build your own solution to the problem), and types of words to look out for are incredibly useful. Additionally, the Hard Math Quizzes were very assistive in being ready for tricky questions and getting used to difficult math. I’m am definitely more of a math person so I really liked the math strategies but still am very grateful for the reading and writing one as well. The 50 different strategies we were taught helped me greatly improve my score for those sections. I would definitely say that this course is worth it and I am very thankful for the help it provided me.
