Course description
​
With live, interactive Zoom sessions, we approach the learning of SAT-level vocabulary as we would the study of a foreign language. A far cry from “texting” vernacular or even much modern American speech/writing, the language tested on the new Digital SAT has proven to be daunting for many SAT test-takers.
In order to facilitate long-term memory retention, sessions take place late in the evening; ideally, this will be the last task students do before bed.
Over a two-week course of daily evening sessions, students will:
-
Commit 500+ vocabulary words to memory
-
Study word roots
-
Use images, memes, and emoticons to keep language fresh
-
Read classic texts and pre-1900s poetry
-
Speak, write, and teach vocabulary for long-term retention
