Package Description:

A focused 90-minute strategy session designed to give your family a clear, honest read on your student's current SAT positioning and the highest-leverage path forward. The right starting point for families who aren't sure yet how much SAT prep their student needs, where to focus, or whether SAT or ACT is the better fit. Before our session, your student takes a full-length proctored diagnostic SAT under real test conditions. I review the results carefully, not just the score, but the patterns: which question types are missed consistently, where time pressure is hurting performance, where conceptual gaps exist, and where small strategic shifts could unlock significant point gains. During our 90-minute video session, I walk through the diagnostic results in detail with your student (and parents, if you'd like to join), explain what the score actually means in the context of target schools, and lay out a specific roadmap for prep, including how many hours of work the score gain is realistically going to require, what to focus on first, and what timeline makes sense given the student's testing window. We also discuss SAT vs. ACT positioning if that decision is still open. Within 48 hours after our call, I send a written follow-up summarizing the diagnostic findings, the prioritized prep plan, and clear recommendations for next steps. The full $599 cost can be credited toward any larger SAT package booked within 30 days, so this also works as a low-risk first step if you're considering longer-term tutoring.

Additional details

Coaching delivered via live sessions.

I take a structured, no-fluff approach to test prep. Before our session, your student takes a full-length proctored diagnostic SAT and I carefully analyze the results, not just the headline score, but the patterns underneath it. During our 90 minutes, I'm direct: I'll tell you exactly what I see, where the highest-leverage focus areas are, how many hours of prep the target score realistically requires, and what timeline makes sense. My goal in this session is simple: leave your family with a real picture of where your student stands, a concrete plan for what to do next, and clarity on whether ongoing tutoring is worth the investment.

Refund Policy

Format: A single 90-minute live 1-on-1 video session, plus a written follow-up sent within 48 hours. Pre-session diagnostic: A full-length proctored SAT diagnostic must be completed before the strategy session. I provide the test materials and proctoring guidance. The diagnostic must be completed at least 48 hours before our session so I have time to analyze the results. Scheduling: Sessions are scheduled at a mutually convenient time via my calendar. Cancellations require 24 hours notice; no-shows or late cancellations forfeit the session. Written follow-up: A written summary of diagnostic findings, recommended prep plan, and next steps is sent within 48 hours of the session. Upgrade credit: The full $599 cost is creditable toward any larger SAT tutoring package booked within 30 days of the strategy session. Refunds: Refunds are available before the diagnostic test has been taken. Once the diagnostic has been completed and the analysis has begun, this package is non-refundable.

SAT Expert | Perfect 1600 Score | 16+ Years, 3,000+ Students Coached

I scored a perfect 1600 on the SAT - and I've spent the last 16+ years helping students get as close to that ceiling as possible. Across 3,000+ students, my SAT tutees average 200+ point gains, with many breaking 1500+ on their way to admission at top US universities. I graduated from NYU Summa Cum Laude with a double major in Economics and English, and earned my MBA from Columbia Business School in 2020. Before joining Leland, I founded and ran my own boutique tutoring firm in New York, leading a team of tutors and developing proprietary SAT curriculum used with thousands of students. My approach is built on pattern recognition, test strategy, and disciplined execution, not endless practice tests. The SAT rewards students who understand how the test is designed, where the traps are, and how to manage the clock. That's what I teach. If you're looking for structured, strategic SAT prep, not generic test prep that treats every student the same, let's talk
