If you're gearing up for the SAT and dreading the verbal section, think of Simon as your new study buddy. His casual, relatable tone turns what could be a tedious process into something more like a chill hangout that just happens to enrich your vocabulary. Plus, his anecdotes and quizzes make sure you're not just memorizing words, but actually understanding and using them like a college student would.
