Want affordable SAT prep for the three remaining paper SATs ever? Graduating senior? Don’t trust the new SAT digital format? Or perhaps you’d like to try both paper and digital SAT! I’m offering SAT prep classes for $35 per hour, at two hours per session. So it’s $70 per 2-hour session. Classes will meet once a week in downtown Oakland. I’ve taught SAT prep since 2002, with many great reviews from satisfied students. Class size limited to 10 students. I will add more classes if there’s demand.

But wait, THERE’S MORE! You get a brand-new copy of Barron’s SAT, Barrons’ SAT Math Workbook at no additional charge. I have additional SAT practice books I can provide you. THERE’S EVEN MORE! You get online time and in-person time before and after class sessions, as available. I’ll be doing this SAT from (September 2023) until December 1, 2022 (the day before the last paper SAT). You can also use this test prep to work on the new digital SAT. I’m also an experienced ACT tutor – let me know if you’re interested in individual tutoring or starting an ACT prep course!

See my Facebook reviews: https://www.facebook.com/linneballtutoring/reviews and reviews from Thumbtack (a service from which I get many referrals for tutoring)
https://www.thumbtack.com/profile/services/213831566874944709/reviews and my Yelp review page https://www.yelp.com/biz/john-linneball-san-francisco?osq=john+linneball+tutoring (Do take a look at the reviews that "are not currently recommended by Yelp - they're perfectly valid, but Yelp has a weird of deciding what reviews are good and which aren't).

Source Material For this Video:
• This video is based on my general knowledge of US history, Barron’s AP US History (4th Edition and/or the 5th Edition) and what I could access/verify using Bing/Google.
• While this should help you do well on the AP US History test, I can’t be responsible for what your teacher asks you about on tests, in homework, etc. Please read your class text(s) and pay attention to what your teacher says in class.
• Any webpages / resources referenced below. Links for References/Links to Relevant Topics: Bing search : value of 40 acres and a mule today $15M per black San Francisco resident – proposals range from $5M cash per adult African-American resident, to guaranteed income of $97,000 per person for 250 years, to homes of $1 per family… So this is between $24,250,000 to $5M, and whatever the value of a home in SF would be after being sold for $1.
