CHICAGO, March 18, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- To help the many high school and college learners now at home during this global pandemic, Tree Falls Productions is offering a free sample of the test prep book Annihilate the ACT & Subjugate the SAT: The Easy New Way to Read, Annotate & Dominate Texts. Written by online tutoring expert Karin McKie, the book is a useful teaching tool for distance learning and for families looking to access homeschooling educational resources.

"Since many high school and college classes are moving online or to homes during this public health crisis, we wanted to offer resources including a free reading retention book sample, as well as virtual tutoring options for students," said McKie, who has spent over a decade helping learners around the country and abroad.

"We know students can experience the 'summer slide,' a reduction in retention over the three-month holiday, so we hope to address similar issues during these sudden and possibly lengthy school closures and novel learning situations," she added. "In this rapidly changing environment, reading support and distance learning can help mitigate educational challenges in this time of social distancing."

Parents, grandparents, and caregivers can sample and buy the book at KarinMcKie.com to help students who are now learning at home to keep up with their classwork and to prepare for upcoming standardized tests like the SAT, ACT, AP, GRE, GMAT and LSAT.

The complete book Annihilate the ACT & Subjugate the SAT shares a clear, concise method for reading comprehension on standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, and with any high school and college texts. The Repetitions and Opposites Reading technique is a simple system to track and summarize the thesis. Using simple recaps and annotations, RAOR provides easy strategies to power through passages and retain key points in any reading.

McKie's tutoring students achieve measurable results. Test prep student Tara said, "Karin's tips and tricks are unlike anything I have learned from test prep books and other tutoring services. She was able to greatly improve my score."

McKie is a lifelong educator with degrees in communications, creative writing and improvisation. She writes for ThirdCoastReview.com, EDGEMediaNetwork.com, CircusTalk.com, and has received writing scholarships from Chicago Dramatists and the Philadelphia Writers Conference.
