I'm looking forward to working with you!

I am an undergraduate student at Washington University in St. Louis majoring in Neurobiology (B.S.) and minoring in Jazz Studies and Biomedical Physics. While I tutor many areas within math, science, and standardized test preparation, I am most passionate about biology and algebra because of my interest in these subjects as well as my belief in their importance. I have always been the friend who fellow peers go to for guidance with work and because of this, I have learned the value of patience, communication, and empathy in the education process. I firmly believe that every subject I tutor is vital in a student's path to success and a greater understanding of the world, and because of this, I will fully commit myself to making sure my tutees have a solid grasp of the concepts being taught as well as the ability to apply them to real-world situations.

I'm always up for the challenge of changing my methods of instruction and breaking down topics to foster a deeper understanding of a subject. On a different note, I generally spend my spare time playing lacrosse or running outdoors when possible. I also play the violin with a school quartet, and teach lessons to beginning students working through the Suzuki program.

Majoring in both psychology and mathematics at UGA — with awards for her math coursework — Hailey brings genuine number fluency to SAT Math prep rather than just test-trick memorization. Her 1570 SAT means she's already conquered the section's trickiest passport-to-advanced-math questions, and she teaches students to recognize when a problem is testing exponential vs. polynomial reasoning so they pick the right approach before wasting time. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am a college sophomore at Brown University. I've been involved in tutoring and mentoring since high school, and I'm excited to get to continue with that work here on Varsity Tutors! My past experiences include working as an instructor at a math learning center for K-12 students, as well as private tutoring for middle and high school students. I would describe my teaching style as conversational; my goal is always to work with you to find a perspective on a topic that makes sense to you. I find that I like to I emphasize a concept's relevance and applications while providing explanations, as well as by providing useful practice scenarios or past examples.

Matthew earned a 1580 on the SAT and brings a systematic approach to the Math section that treats every problem type — from passport-to-advanced-math questions to data analysis — as a pattern to recognize rather than a puzzle to panic over. He's particularly sharp at teaching the algebraic shortcuts that save time on calculator-free problems.

Scoring 1550 on the SAT gave Tyler a sharp sense of how the math section tests concepts — the way it buries straightforward algebra or coordinate geometry inside unfamiliar word problems designed to slow students down. He breaks questions into what they're actually asking versus what they look like they're asking, a distinction that consistently unlocks faster, more accurate problem-solving.

I am here to help you succeed. But what does it mean to succeed? I think success is not simply a matter of knowledge or ability; it is also about attitude and confidence. Through working with me as your tutor, I hope to help you develop your confidence in your abilities and cultivate a positive attitude that allows you to tackle any challenge that comes your way.

Computer engineering coursework means Sasha solves systems of equations and manipulates polynomials the way most people read sentences — fluently and fast, which is exactly what the SAT's no-calculator section demands. She scored a 1570 on the SAT herself and uses that recent experience to teach students the specific time-saving setups for Heart of Algebra questions that separate a good score from a great one. Rated 4.9 by students.

The SAT Math section rewards students who can read a word problem, identify the underlying algebra or geometry, and execute cleanly under time pressure. Alexandra scored a 1510 composite and brings a scientist's precision to test strategy — she walks through each problem type, from systems of equations to scatter plot analysis, showing exactly which approach saves the most time.

Jennifer scored a 1520 SAT and brings particular strength to the Math section, where her background in calculus and quantitative coursework at Emory pays off. She digs into the specific algebra and advanced math concepts that make up the bulk of the test — systems of equations, quadratic modeling, and interpreting nonlinear functions. Her approach emphasizes recognizing problem structures so students can pick the fastest path to the answer.

Every SAT Math question falls into one of a handful of categories — linear relationships, quadratics, ratios, or data interpretation — and recognizing the category instantly is half the battle. Chandler scored a 1560 and uses that experience to drill pattern recognition so students spend their time solving, not figuring out what's being asked. He's rated 5.0 by students.

Every SAT Math question can be solved in under 90 seconds if you spot the right approach — and that pattern recognition is exactly what Aditya teaches. His own 1580 composite came from treating each problem type as a category with a go-to strategy, an approach he now breaks down for students tackling everything from quadratic modeling to systems of inequalities.

Scoring a 1510 on the SAT means Isabella has firsthand experience with the specific traps the math section sets — problems that look straightforward but require careful interpretation of word problems, data tables, or system-of-equations setups. She teaches students to identify what each question is actually asking before touching their calculator, a habit that eliminates careless errors on the no-calculator section especially. Her MIT math degree ensures she can explain any concept that appears, from advanced algebra to passport-to-advanced-math topics.

Three science degrees from Harvard — including neurobiology — meant Marion spent undergrad buried in quantitative coursework, from statistics to research methods, building the kind of algebraic and data-analysis fluency the SAT Math section leans on heavily. Her 1540 SAT score confirms she knows how to execute under timed pressure, and her years teaching high school science give her a sharp eye for the conceptual gaps that cause students to second-guess themselves on ratio, function, and modeling questions. Rated 5.0 by students.

Burhanuddin scored a 1510 on the SAT and knows exactly where the math section tries to trip students up — especially on passport-to-advanced-math questions involving quadratic manipulation and systems of nonlinear equations. His physics training at Georgia Tech means he approaches every problem by identifying what's actually being asked before touching any algebra, a habit that eliminates careless errors under time pressure. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am a Biotechnology Master's Student at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, ETH Zurich. I completed my undergraduate degree in Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering from Georgia Tech in 2018 while minoring in Biomedical Engineering.

Five attempts and a 1590 final score mean Jackson has reverse-engineered the SAT Math section thoroughly — he knows where the College Board hides difficulty in passport-to-advanced-math questions, how to shortcut systems of equations, and which calculator strategies actually save time. He brings that hard-won, test-specific knowledge directly into sessions. Rated 5.0 by students.

Theater might seem unrelated to SAT Math, but Merav's 1560 SAT and magna cum laude Northwestern degree prove she's got serious quantitative chops — and her psychology minor means she understands why students second-guess correct answers or misread carefully worded problem setups. She zeroes in on the geometry and additional-topics questions that many prep plans underweight, teaching students to sketch diagrams and label constraints before solving so they stop losing points to misvisualized problems.

I'm Rob, a 2015 Stanford Graduate and full-time writer living in Atlanta, Georgia. I have four years of experience tutoring and am excited to work with any students on SAT test prep, as well as any college or high school essay writing. Please reach out, and we will set up time for a session!

I am a 3rd year bio major at GT with minors in biochemistry and computer science. My tutoring subjects are math, bio, and chem. I have tutored for a few years, and I have also TAed! My favorite subjects are general chemistry and molecular biology (: My personal belief is that anyone can enjoy a subject once they truly understand it.

I am an undergraduate at Rice University in Houston pursuing a Bachelor of Science in Biochemistry and Cell Biology. I have both formal and informal tutoring experience: I worked as an assistant teacher in my high school's math department in Atlanta teaching geometry, algebra and pre-calculus to students over the summer. As an Academic Fellow at Rice, I provide academic assistance to my peers in the natural sciences, specifically chemistry and biochemistry. Although my studies are focused in STEM, I am a strong writer and I excel in helping students improve grammar and essay organization. Additionally, I have abundant experience in both standardized and AP testing. I am a friendly and empathetic person, and I want to do whatever I can to help other students succeed!

Finance majors live in quantitative reasoning — modeling, percentages, interpreting data — which maps neatly onto the SAT Math section's emphasis on real-world problem setups and statistical analysis. Rinky pairs that quantitative background with a 1520 SAT score, meaning she's already proven she can execute under the test's time pressure. She's especially sharp at teaching students to convert the SAT's wordy scenarios into clean algebraic expressions before solving.

Paula earned a 1520 SAT composite and brings a methodical approach to the Math section, especially the no-calculator portion where algebraic fluency and number sense matter most. She breaks problems into categories — linear equations, quadratic modeling, data interpretation — so students learn to recognize what's being tested before they start solving. That pattern-recognition skill is often the difference between a good score and a great one.

John scored a 1510 on the SAT and uses that experience to walk students through the specific math concepts the test actually emphasizes — linear functions, ratios, percentages, and the handful of quadratic and exponential problems that appear consistently. His strategy prioritizes accuracy on the no-calculator section first, since that's where most students leave the easiest points behind.

Nikhil earned a 1530 on the SAT, and his math score reflects deep comfort with the algebra, advanced math, and data-analysis questions that dominate the section. He pinpoints the specific question types — quadratic modeling, systems of equations, or probability — where each student loses the most points, then builds targeted drills around those weaknesses. That diagnostic approach turns study time into actual score gains instead of aimless review.

I am a rising junior in Cornell University in the College of Engineering. Currently, I am studying Computer Science and Education with the goal of becoming a high school teacher for Mathematics and Computer Science. I have educated others in a wide variety of age groups and settings from public schools to private tutoring to summer camps. With the rise of computer science and programming I have firsthand experience on what the future of someone pursuing that field is like and how to prepare and stay motivated in that field. In my time aiding students I saw that motivation and having a goal is the most important part of learning the subject and becoming a better student to help accomplish the set goal.

Applied economics at Emory means Jesse spends most of his coursework building and solving quantitative models — the same algebraic reasoning and data-interpretation skills that dominate the SAT Math section. His 1560 SAT confirms he knows how the test actually works, and he zeroes in on the geometry and advanced-math questions where students who are otherwise strong in algebra tend to leak points. Rated 4.9 by students.

Engineering coursework at Georgia Tech means Katherine solves problems involving algebra, data interpretation, and advanced math concepts every week. She applies that fluency to SAT Math prep by teaching students how to recognize which tool a problem is really asking for — whether it's setting up a system of equations or reading a scatterplot — so they stop second-guessing themselves under time pressure.

Scoring a 1520 SAT composite gave Sylvan firsthand knowledge of how the math section tests algebra, data analysis, and problem-solving fluency under time constraints. He teaches students to recognize the handful of question structures the College Board recycles — especially the tricky no-calculator problems involving systems and quadratics — so nothing on test day feels unfamiliar.

Finance majors live in algebra — modeling revenue, interpreting cost functions, building projections from linear and quadratic relationships — which means Vignesh drills SAT Math problems with the fluency of someone who uses these tools daily, not just for test prep. His 1530 SAT confirms he knows how to execute under timed pressure, and he's especially sharp at teaching students to avoid the calculation traps the College Board buries in "Problem Solving and Data Analysis" questions involving percentages and ratios. Rated 5.0 by students.

I'm Thomas, a sophomore Computer Science student at Georgia Tech. While I may be a STEM major at a tech school, I've always been skilled in reading and writing, never earning less than A in an English class throughout my academic career. If you're looking for someone with a high success rate in English, whether it be standardized testing or general writing, you're in the right place. In high school, I received a perfect score on the SAT writing section (only missed perfect on Verbal by 10 points), won first place in the UIL Regional Ready Writing Contest, and served as an editor on the school newspaper. While completing my university English requirement, I created an online tour stop for Atlanta's National Center for Civil and Human Rights.

I am a graduate of Duke University with a Bachelor of Arts in Latin American History. I recently received my Juris Doctor degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and began my career as an attorney. I am passionate about continuing my work in education through tutoring. I enjoy tutoring many subjects, particularly History, SAT Reading and Writing, College Essays, and Spanish. I love assisting students in implementing simple but effective changes in their preparation for Standardized Tests that show immediate results. I find this motivates students to continue through struggles in their educational pursuits. When I am not working, I enjoy yoga, running, cooking, traveling and playing the cello.

I am able to relieve the stigma of certain subjects, especially math, in order for a student to perform well. I hope my work with different students is able to promote the importance of education!

Addison scored a 1550 on the SAT and brings a math-heavy background from Rice University's biochemistry program and a STEM magnet high school where she completed coursework through multivariable calculus. She breaks down SAT Math by question type — heart of algebra, passport to advanced math, problem solving — and teaches the shortcuts that turn a 700 into a 780.

Every SAT Math question falls into one of a handful of concept buckets — linear relationships, quadratics, ratios, or data analysis — and knowing which bucket you're in determines your approach. Jen scored a 1500 on the SAT and completed Georgia Tech's quantitative-heavy Honors Program, so she can quickly show students the underlying structure behind problems that initially look unfamiliar.

I am a senior Psychology, Spanish, and Religion major, and I have been tutoring for over ten years. I love working with students of all ages, and I have five years of experience working with students with learning differences! I specialize in English literature, writing, learning differences, and Spanish.

Philosophy majors spend their days pulling apart arguments to find the hidden structure — and Bruce applies that same logic-first instinct to SAT Math, particularly the word-heavy algebra problems where most points are lost before a student even picks up a pencil. His 1510 SAT means he's proven he can execute under real test conditions, and he teaches students to convert cluttered problem setups into clean, solvable equations by isolating exactly what the question demands.

I am a graduate of Haverford College, where I studied history with focus on modern Europe and Asia. In 2014-2015, I completed pre-medical course work at Agnes Scott College, and I am currently applying to medical school, with a goal of becoming a primary care physician. As a pre-medical student, I understand how to approach standardized tests, and enjoy helping others succeed. I have two years of experience as a reading tutor in elementary schools. I enjoy sharing my love of learning and watching as my students gain fluency, confidence, and enjoyment in a subject as we work through material together. In my spare time, I make wheel-thrown pottery, go hiking, and sing in my community choir.
