Welcome to my profile! With a strong foundation in Statistics and Machine Learning from Carnegie Mellon's Tepper School of Business, I bring a data-driven approach to SAT coaching.

Over the years, I've successfully coached 25+ students, guiding them to achieve their target scores and gain admission to their dream schools. Whether you need help with strategy, practice, or confidence-building, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let's work together to unlock your full potential on the SAT!

Hi! I'm Bruce Hanson and I've coached the SAT for 10 years both as an instructor at UCLA and as the founder of First Choice Admissions. I specialize in getting students elite scores and I've helped hundreds of students just like you hit their goals! I created a highly effective SAT curriculum at UCLA - hundreds of students went through the program and then I further honed it through thousands of hours of teaching private students. The lessons, practice sets and teaching approach have all been battle tested over 10 years and have helped hundreds of students get top scores - I'd love to help you too!

Hi! I'm Sarah, and I'd love to help you reach your SAT goals. I earned a perfect 1600 on the SAT and have spent the past few years tutoring students for both the SAT and ACT. While I'm proud of my own score, what matters most to me is helping my students achieve theirs. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing a student go from feeling intimidated by the test to walking into exam day feeling confident and prepared. Every student learns differently, so I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. During our sessions, we'll figure out where you're losing points, strengthen the concepts you're struggling with, and develop strategies that work for you. We'll review practice questions together, break down challenging problems step by step, and focus on understanding the reasoning behind each answer. I'll also share the test-taking strategies that helped me earn a 1600 and have helped many of my students improve their scores. I'm known for being patient, encouraging, and thorough. I know it's easy to get discouraged when preparing for a standardized test, so I aim to create a relaxed, supportive environment where you're comfortable asking questions and learning from mistakes. My goal is not just to help you raise your score, but to help you build confidence in your abilities along the way. Whether you're trying to reach a target score for your dream school, improve by a few hundred points, or simply feel less stressed about the SAT, I'm excited to help you get there. I look forward to celebrating your progress every step of the way!

Since 2014, I have been prepping students for the SAT across three different versions of the exam. In the course of my time as a full-time tutor, I have worked with more than 500 SAT students. My experience is not limited to just those hoping for super-high scores to get into elite colleges, although I have certainly worked with such students. Instead, I have worked with students starting at every stage in the prep process and every starting point in terms of score. I offer full test preparation for both the Math section and the Reading and Writing section. Students who spend at least 10 sessions with me are likely to see at least a 100-point improvement in their composite score. Those with more than 20 sessions often see improvement more in the 150-200 point range. However, even those who book only a few session can also benefit, as time going over test-taking strategy and calculator skills can provide a boost of around 50 points.

In our work, we encounter a wide range of difficulties students face, from pacing issues to question misinterpretations. Drawing on our experience, we help students develop practical skills for each section, like quick reading strategies for the Reading section, effective elimination techniques for English, and clear, methodical approaches to the Science and Math sections. Beyond test content, we prioritize helping students become resilient and adaptable test-takers who can manage stress, stay composed under pressure, and ultimately achieve their best possible score.

Reading and writing can seem unscientific, but I can help bring some method to the madness. I received a 780 on the section in high school (1 wrong), and have since helped tutor many high school students during college. There are common patterns for the types of questions you'll get asked, and I will help you think like a test-maker and test-taker.
