About Iona
Hello! I am a high-achieving student who recently conquered the Digital SAT with a score of 1470, placing me in the top 1%.
I understand the adaptive digital test inside and out. I specialize in helping high schoolers eliminate test anxiety, master digital test-taking strategies, and dramatically boost their scores.
Before we start regular lessons, you’re welcome to schedule a FREE 30-minute consultation :) We’ll figure out what you need to study the most and where your strengths are. My mission is to get all my students the highest possible score with the least possible studying!
Why Pick Me?
Standard tutoring companies charge $100+/hour for adult tutors who haven't looked at an SAT question in a decade and don't understand the new digital app. As a peer mentor, I know exactly what it feels like to sit in front of that screen under a countdown timer. I don't just teach the material—I teach the mental stamina, pacing secrets, and confidence strategies.

These intensive prep sessions are designed for Grade 10-12 students who want admission to competitive universities. We'll focus on plugging your specific content gaps and using test-taking strategies to boost your score.
The SAT has changed. It is no longer a test of memorization; it is a test of logic and strategy. My methodology focuses on two pillars: Data-Driven Content Mastery and Digital Interface Strategy.
For Math: I teach students how to master advanced algebra, use the Desmos calculator to solve problems as efficiently as possible, and avoid all the trap answers.
For Reading & Writing: I provide concrete frameworks for breaking down dense vocabulary-in-context, craft questions, and grammar modules.
The Adaptive Test: I explicitly train students on how the exam's multi-stage adaptive scoring works, teaching them how to secure a spot in the harder Module 2 to unlock their maximum score.
Standard Lesson Plan (typically 60 mins, open for discussion)
1. Diagnostic Review (10 Mins): Dissecting homework questions or recent practice test results to analyze exactly why you picked a wrong answer.
2. Strategy & Concept Studying (25 Mins): Deep-dive into a specific high-yield question type (e.g., Command of Evidence or Systems of Equations) using proven frameworks found in top prep materials.
3. Timed Bluebook Drills (20 Mins): Live, timed practice which simulates real test conditions. This will build pacing and stop you from being nervous on test day.
4. Action Plan (5 Mins): Assigning targeted official question sets for the week ahead.
