About Blake
For our first session, you get 70+ free released practice tests, a complete study schedule, 18 ACT calculator programs, and completely free subscription to my complete online ACT course in addition to the weekly zoom meetings. On average, I increase english scores by 5 points after two sessions. I graduated Harvard this year in the top 5% GPA, have 6+ years of ACT/SAT/SSAT tutoring experience, scored 35 on the ACT, and have helped several students enter the mid 30s from low 20s. This year, I have helped five students get interviews to Harvard. I offer tutoring of the highest quality to students each week over zoom. You get all these benefits for $75 in muy ACT source. I also offer tutoring for my standard rate of $200/hr. I will explain how personalized tutoring works as well. I can't wait to help you increase your score!
Why do I coach?
Having graduated from an institution like Harvard, I'm acutely aware of the value and opportunities that an excellent education can offer. Yet, I also understand the pressures and challenges of preparing for competitive tests like the SAT and ACT. I believe my experiences and insights can help guide students through these challenges and demystify the process. Moreover, I also understand that standardized test coaching can be expensive, creating barriers for students from lower-income families. By offering my services altruistically, I hope to remove some of those financial barriers and contribute to educational equity. Finally, my coaching isn't just about test scores. I aim to help students cultivate critical thinking, problem-solving, and perseverance—skills that are not just crucial for these tests but are lifelong assets. I find immense fulfillment in knowing that I am helping to shape the minds of the next generation, and potentially giving them the tools they need to succeed in their future endeavors.
