STUDENT FEEDBACK AND REVIEWS

Mika: Straight to the point. Fantastic for motivated learners.
Michelle Rotteau: If you are looking for a step by step guide to writing the SAT Essay, look no further. The videos in the series are long enough to give you everything you need but short enough that you won’t be tuning out. Additionally, there are downloadable pdfs to have in front of you while you are watching the lessons. These elements combine to make this course a barrier free learning experience for students who need clarity on how to approach the SAT Essay. First, Mrs. Yoshida introduces you to the elements of the prompt and scoring that you need to know in order to satisfy the scorers. Then, she clearly explains the most common types of persuasive devices found on SAT Essay passages. Next, she visually demonstrates how to mark up the passage, identifying the persuasive elements. But most importantly, she guides students through the writing process to help them create a clear and well-organized analysis essay.
Harrison Publius: With this guide, I don’t have to do any extra research, except looking for more examples to practice. The PDFs that she utilized throughout are very helpful. I’m honestly surprised how she can put together so much information in such a short amount of time, if I have to put it in one word, it’ll be ‘perfection.’
Peter Gaige: This course is well organized. Students will obtain a strong understanding of what is expected in their essays. Well worth the time and money. The perfect refresher and change of pace from that “metropolitan sized phone book” review book you have been using. Whichever school district employs Prof. Yoshida has a talented teacher working with their students. Concise and well done. Thank you.
Gerry Sharp: This is a very informative, insightful study of the SAT essay. The course is very clear and well-organized. As a veteran teacher in Southern California I have taught the “3 Things” multi-paragraph essay at many grade levels. However, Ms. Yoshida has a talent for recognizing Persuasive Devices and presenting them in a palatable manner, making this class worth every penny for the tuition paid. I would recommend her class to any student preparing to take the SAT, even if they are enrolled in one of the most notable test prep programs in their area as it will enrich their preparation greatly.
Maria Eduarda Gumiere Leal: Really helpful! I completely recommend this course! Thank you, Elizabeth!
Caroline Gladstein: This course is the most concise, smart way to learn how to write for this! Awesome!
Bishal Bagale: Yes
Brian Lazaro: This course has some useful resources that help with the sat essay. It walks you through it pretty well. Even if one isn’t the greatest writer, one seems able to mimic what this course teaches.
