About

I am Folasona, a graduate of Mathematics from Howard University. I also hold an M.A. in Humanities from New York University. I have extensive experience and specialization in teaching test-prep for the SAT exam. I scored a perfect 1600 on the SAT.

I have helped countless students strive for their full potential on standardized university entrance exams including the SAT, SAT subject tests, and the ACT. I have helped both highly achieving and struggling students make significant improvements by mastering not only the material, but also the timing, format, and style of these exams. It brings me great joy to see my students gain both the confidence and competence to expand their future educational opportunities.
