Test Prep Course
The Write Well, Write Now USA SAT 8-Week
Writing Instruction course is exceptional for building knowledge and confidence
in all high school students preparing for their SATs.
The Write Well, Write Now USA 8-week
course prepares students to respond quickly and confidently. Students write 10 SAT-style essays on a broad
range of topics. This makes them secure
in their writing abilities AND able to "think instantly" when
confronted with their actual SAT essay.
About the New SATs
The New SATs include a writing
portion in which students have only 30 minutes to open their booklets,
read a writing prompt, formulate their ideas, and write and proof their
essay. No matter how far they have gone
or how much they have written, after 30 minutes, they are finished.
The actual essays themselves are
provided to universities, as well as written scores from two judges.
Scores range from 0 to 6. A score of 6 is the ideal, top possible score
and our goal for each one of our students.
The total, combined score from the two judges is worth one-third of each
student's overall SAT score.
With just 25 minutes to prove that a
writer is competent, thoughtful, a deep thinker, and capable of analyzing a
concept and writing well including adding political, historical,
literary, and personal references, it is critical that students are fully
versed in this type of essay writing. It
is easy to freeze or blank out when under test-taking stress, even for teens
that usually do pretty well under pressure.
Repeated SAT writing practice
coupled with excellent, timely feedback from highly trained and qualified
mentor teachers helps students reach a level of competency that helps them avoid
test taking "blank-out" and instead gives them security and
confidence.
How is the 8-Week Course Structured?
Two essays are written during a
6-hour in-person seminar under the direct supervision and guidance of their
mentor teacher. Intensive instruction is
given, along with ample opportunity to ask questions and practice the various
elements of SAT writing.
Eight weeks of online instruction
follows the in-person seminar. Eight
additional essays are assigned and written at a rate of one each week. Writing an essay each week helps place the
information into the student's long-term memory and will help reduce the
pressure brought about during the actual SAT experience, plus increases the
chances that the student will "hit" one of our SAT topics on the
actual test.
During both segments of the course
(in-person and online), the student's mentor teacher expertly scores each
student's essay and provides detailed feedback.
Web-based assignments designed to fine-tune and hone student writing
skills and are assigned based upon individual student writing needs.
