SAT Math Test Prep

Time to start preparing for the SAT.  The January SAT test date is right around the corner and sign ups for the workshop have already begun. Ms. Jones will be holding another 6-hour MATH SAT Prep Workshop consisting of two (2) three-hour sessions to help you prepare for the test by learning strategies specific to the SAT. Come learn the tricks and give yourself the greatest opportunity to score well!  Once the strategies are learned, students will practice them while reviewing and refreshing key math topics that will be covered on the test.  This class has had great success in the past and many students increase their initial math score by an average of 150 points.  

WHEN:Tuesday, January 14th, and Tuesday, January 21st, from 5-8pm.

WHERE: At Ms. Jones' home 230 Brook Ct. Athens, 30606 (behind the Publix on Atlanta Highway).  If the class becomes significantly large, I will notify you of a change in location.

COST: $75 (cash only), plus a small workbook--The Princeton Review Math Workout for the SAT, 3rd Edition. ISBN# 037542833X.  These are available at Barnes and Noble or many sites online.  You will need to purchase this book for the first session.  These books go quickly as the test date approaches, so go ahead and purchase the book as soon as possible.  I also recommend you have the calculator you plan to use on the test so that you can become familiar with it.  Graphing calculators are permitted, but not required.  A pretest must be taken prior to the first session, so please contact Ms. Jones as soon as possible so that you can have all the information needed in order to have the test completed on time.

This workshop is in preparation for the January test date, but you are welcomed to join even if you are not registered for the test.  

Tentative Future Workshop Dates:  
Feb 25th/Mar 4th for the March 8th  test date
Apr 22nd/Apr 29th for the May 3rd test date

**Dates and times subject to change. More details on these workshop to follow, but early registration is accepted.

    Spring Options:  
Individual One-On-One Tutoring for remediation of previous year’s math course, acceleration/preview of next year’s math course, or SAT/ACT preparation.  $50/hr
                  
Small Group Sessions (up to 4 students, not necessarily the    same subject)  Currently this is offered on Monday nights from 7:15-8:15.  No weekly commitment necessary, but it is a first come, first serve basis, so be sure to sign up if you want to come! $35/hr.

Ms. Jones offers one-on-one tutoring sessions for $50/hour throughout the school year, and during the summer. (SAT/ACT Prep or any math through Precalculus/Math 4).  Some students prefer the one-on-one setting, and I have several students that meet with me once or twice a week to help catch them up in their current classes, work ahead of their class in order to boost confidence and grades, or to prepare for the SAT or ACT.  These sessions are tailored to each student’s needs, and spring slots are beginning to fill!  Let me know if you need help!

Contact Lauren Jones for more information or to register.  770-633-8097 (call or text) or email lmjones531@gmail.com.  I look forward to hearing from you!
