Some students believe that studying for a test such as the SAT or the GMAT, which includes reading, math, and grammar sections, is the same as reading, learning math, or learning grammar. Students are incorrectly led by typical academic education into believing that a test is always measuring their knowledge, their ability to retain information, or, even worse, their intelligence.
The truth is, when you study for these tests, you're doing just that: study for a test. So, your goal is not to learn math or grammar, or to completely understand the passages you're shown in the reading sections; your goal is to understand exactly what the test is asking from you, and to perform accordingly.
Following the way of the test implies understanding the exact test you're dealing with: the question types, the alternative types, the common mistakes to avoid, and strategies to take. Each test has its own way, and our goal is to understand it and follow it.

Acerca de mí
I started teaching math fresh out of high school when I was 15. From then on, I continued teaching (mostly math) as a side job until I graduated from college. After college, I worked in my field for some time, but then, after travelling for a while, started tutoring for the GMAT exam in 2013, and for the SAT in 2014. I also worked for some language institutions as a ESL teacher, but then went back to tutoring for exams, which is what I like the most. I've worked in many academies and with many different methods, and finally decided to put a name to my own method (which is a combination of the many different things I've learnt and others that I "found out" myself).
I don't waste class time with activities my students could just do by themselves (reading long passages, taking practice tests), and I actually encourage my students to do most of the work at home. I think most students don't really need to spend many hours with a tutor, and a tutor should be there just to guide and solve specific issues a student may come up with.
I understand the needs of my students and, most importantly, understand that they need to reach their goal score in a test, so we focus on that. The idea is to study for the specific test that they need, to understand the way of the test, and follow it.
