Abigail Akseleod
Hey there! I’m Abby, and I get it - the SAT can feel impossible sometimes. But trust me, you’re capable of way more than you think.
I graduated from Cornell University with a degree in Computational Biology, and I’m heading to medical school soon! But before all that? I was a student just like you, staring at SAT practice tests and wondering how to get my score up. That’s why I became a tutor - because I figured out what works, and now I want to help you do the same.
My approach? Breaking the SAT down into patterns and strategies so you don’t just memorize - you understand. Whether you’re aiming for a top score or just trying to get past a frustrating plateau, I’m here to guide you step by step.

"Honestly, I wasn’t sure if tutoring would be worth it. My son is smart but wasn’t great at standardized tests, and I didn’t want to waste time and money on something that wouldn’t help. Abby proved me wrong. She didn’t just teach the material, she taught how to take the test, how to stay calm under pressure, and how to maximize every question. His score jumped 180 points,
SO worth it."

"I took the SAT three times before working with Abby, and my score barely moved no matter how much I studied. I was so frustrated. Abby looked at my practice tests and immediately spotted the patterns in my mistakes, stuff I never even noticed. She helped me change my approach, and within a few weeks, my practice scores started going up. Final test day? 150-point improvement. Couldn’t have done it without her!"

"I used to think the SAT was just a way to torture high school students. Every time I took a practice test, I felt dumber. Then my mom signed me up with Abby, and suddenly, the test clicked. She made it feel like a game - showing me the patterns, the traps, and the shortcuts that actually worked. I walked into my test feeling READY. Ended up with a 1420 (from a 1210!!). Abby, you’re a lifesaver."
