Personalized SAT Prep for all sections at all levels!
Nairobi or Online
Good prep isn't one-size-fits-all. I specialize in personalized SAT support that's shaped by how you learn, what you're aiming for, and where you're starting.
ABOUT ME
Hi there! My name is Becca and I am originally from North Carolina in the U.S. I have a Bachelor's degree in International Relations from Pepperdine University and a Master's in Development Economics from Université Paris-Est Créteil. With over 5 years of SAT tutoring experience, I've had the privilege of supporting more than 300 students throughout their college preparation journey.
Specializing in all subjects of the SAT and having designed customized curricula for the evolving digital format for multiple SAT agencies, I understand the exam inside and out. Whether students are aiming for a significant score boost or refining specific areas, I take a personalized approach to assess strengths, address weaknesses, and develop a tailored plan. I focus on mastering content, building exam confidence, and creating a supportive space where students feel empowered to succeed. Over the past two years, each one of my students, including those already scoring in the 1500s, has shown a score improvement.
Standardized testing can feel overwhelming, but with the right materials and a clear plan in place, the SAT becomes a manageable (and dare I say, even exciting) exam to study for. By breaking down complex concepts and focusing on strategic, step-by-step progress, I help my students build confidence and walk into the exam fully prepare to reach their goals.
"Her teaching style is engaging and incredibly effective, making complex topics easy to understand"

SERVICES
My Approach
Every tutoring journey begins with a collaborative approach designed to meet each student's unique needs. All students are asked to complete a practice exam first. During an initial consultation, we'll discuss the student's goals, review practice exam results, and outline a personalized study plan that targets key areas for improvement. This plan is flexible and evolves alongside the student's progress.
Sessions are a partnership. The student and I work together to set homework expectations that feel manageable, and I provide all the necessary study materials. If a student already has their own resources, I can adapt the study plan to incorporate them as long as they're suitable for the student's level and the current version of the exam. I have accumulated folders of SAT study materials over the years, including past digital exams, practice problems, and resources based on research, agency collaborations, and feedback.
My approach emphasizes building familiarity with the test to help students recognize the common question types and better understand what is being tested. This approach strengthens content knowledge and builds confidence for test day.
Whether working remotely or in person, I strive to create a friendly yet professional environment where students feel comfortable asking questions, clarifying what they don't understand, and speaking up for themselves. I work to both improve SAT scores and help students become more confident, independent learners.
Progress Tracking
Progress is tracked regularly through practice tests and performance assessments, allowing for tailored adjustments to the study plan. Students receive feedback on strengths, areas of improvement, and actionable steps for continued progress.
Remote and In-Person Sessions: I've been exclusively teaching remotely for the past few years, working with students from around the world, and am comfortable with an online classroom set-up. However, if you prefer in-person sessions, I am available for tutoring in the Nairobi area, whether in your home, my home, or at a local coffee shop.

TESTIMONIALS
Sarah from Norway improved 190 points!
"I would highly recommend Becca as an SAT tutor. Her teaching style is engaging and incredibly effective, making complex topics easy to understand. She tailored lessons to my specific weaknesses, which helped me improve my score significantly—from 1080 on my practice test to 1270 on the actual SAT. Becca's encouragement and structured approach made the whole process less overwhelming, and I'm really grateful for her guidance."
Morgan from Florida improved 180 points!
"My mother and I decided to get an SAT tutor at the last minute. Becca improved my score by 180 points in total from the time we started. Having ADHD made it hard for me to focus and pay attention, but Becca surprised me. What made her stand out was her willingness to work with my attention span and keep me engaged; her patience was unmatched. I went from failing in some categories on the SAT to achieving perfect scores, I never thought it would be possible. Becca was very helpful and understanding of me, she really did help me and I am grateful my mother and I found her."
Finn from Germany improved 110 points to receive a 1530!
"Becca is a fantastic tutor who knows how to break down tough SAT concepts in a way that makes them manageable. Her structured approach and tailored strategies helped me focus on my weak areas while building confidence in my strengths. Thanks to her guidance, I improved my time management and gained confidence in solving hard questions."
Manuel from Lisbon improved 100 points in less than a month!
"Becca is kind, energetic, and an SAT-expert. She knows all types of approaches that will help you organize your time better and focus on the essentials for perfectly solving the different questions. She gives helpful tips and has a huge number of practice exams for you to train. I strongly believe that I wouldn't have improved so fast without Becca's help and positive attitude."
Jack from the UK improved 190 points!
"I highly recommend Becca for practising and reviewing for the SAT. My experience was very positive. I was able to be in control of my schedule along with having times and dates for assignments and meetings. Becca was extremely reliable and set me up for success come test day."

Peter from the UK improved 200 points!
"I highly recommend Becca for SAT tutoring with Manhattan Review. As soon as we got set up she made a structured plan for me but was super flexible whenever I needed to adjust my schedule. Not only did Becca give me many resources to take home and review but she thoroughly analysed my strengths and weaknesses and adjusted the work that we did accordingly. Lastly, Becca is a great tutor who makes a very friendly and welcoming environment while being very professional!"
