Who will teach your child

I am a structural engineer turned educator:
M.Tech from IIT (ISM) Dhanbad, a former Associate Professor in Civil Engineering, with over 22 years of professional and teaching experience. Engineering taught me that every answer rests on a clear concept and a logical chain of steps, and that is exactly how I teach SAT Math: first why a method works, then the quickest reliable route on test day, on paper or in Desmos.

Many students lose points not for lack of ability, but because of gaps in their fundamentals. I find those gaps early and close them, so your child walks into the test confident and independent. I teach every class myself.

How it works

A clear plan from the first class to test day.

Free demo class

Your child joins one live class. You see the teaching before you pay anything.

Starting point

We use the PSAT score report, or a first official practice test, to find strengths and gaps.

Weekly classes

Two live sessions a week, unit by unit, in the College Board's own order.

Official practice tests

Full official practice tests, reviewed question by question in class.

The full syllabus: 19 topics

Every topic on the Digital SAT Math section, grouped by area. Joel teaches all 19, area by area, in this order.

Desmos: used the right way

The Digital SAT has the Desmos graphing calculator built in. Knowing when to use it, and when paper is faster, saves real time.

Graph it, don't grind it

Systems of equations, quadratics, and many "how many solutions" questions can be solved or checked in seconds on Desmos.

Understand it first

Every topic is taught on paper first, so your child knows why the answer is right, not just which button to press.

Graphing calculator illustration: the curve y = x squared minus 4 and the line y = 2x minus 1 cross at (minus 1, minus 3) and (3, 5)y = x² − 4y = 2x − 1−31484(−1, −3)(3, 5)
Solving x² − 4 = 2x − 1 by graphing both sides: the solutions are x = −1 and x = 3.

Questions parents ask

Do you guarantee a score?

No one honestly can. After the starting test we agree a personal target with you, and you see progress through official practice tests along the way.

When are the classes?

On weekdays and at weekends. The times are published in India time (IST) in the booking box below; choose your time zone there to see them in your own time. We agree the exact slot with each student.

Is it one-to-one?

It can be one-to-one, or a small group.

What does my child need?

A laptop or tablet with Zoom, the College Board's free testing app, and a quiet place to work. Desmos is free and built into the test.

What if we miss a class?

Just let us know. An extra session can be arranged, depending on the situation.
