I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

Quinn

Calculus Tutor • +17 Subjects

I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.

Samuel

AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!

Charles

AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects

I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Frequently Asked Questions

Students typically struggle most with word problems involving rates, work, and mixtures—especially when multiple variables interact. Data sufficiency questions also trip up many test-takers because they require a different logical approach than problem-solving questions. Geometry (coordinate systems, 3D shapes) and probability/combinatorics round out the top pain points. A tutor can identify which specific topics are dragging down your score and build targeted strategies rather than reviewing everything.

The Quantitative section gives you 62 minutes for 31 questions—roughly 2 minutes per question. Many students waste time on hard problems early on, leaving them rushed at the end. A strong approach involves recognizing question difficulty quickly, solving easier questions first, and knowing when to make an educated guess and move on. A tutor can teach you how to spot trap answers, use elimination strategies on data sufficiency questions, and practice with realistic time pressure so you're not panicked on test day.

Data sufficiency questions don't ask you to solve for a specific answer—instead, you determine whether given statements provide enough information to answer the question. This requires a completely different mindset: you're testing logical sufficiency, not calculation. Many students make the mistake of actually solving the problem instead of just checking if it's solvable. Tutors help you master the unique logic framework, practice the five answer choices (A through E), and avoid common traps like assuming you need both statements when one alone is sufficient.

Word problems require translating English into equations, which is where most errors happen. The key is developing a consistent process: identify what you're solving for, define variables clearly, and write equations step-by-step rather than trying to do it all in your head. Common traps include misreading what the question actually asks, forgetting to account for units, or setting up the wrong relationship. A tutor can teach you how to annotate the problem, organize information visually, and check your setup before diving into calculations—this saves time and prevents careless mistakes.

Score improvement depends on your starting point and effort. Students who are weak on fundamentals (struggling below Q35) often see 5-10 point gains by filling knowledge gaps and building confidence. Mid-range students (Q40-45) typically improve 3-7 points by refining strategy and eliminating careless errors. High scorers (Q48+) need precision work on the hardest questions and mental stamina—gains here are often 2-3 points and require consistent practice. The timeline varies, but most students see measurable improvement within 4-8 weeks of focused tutoring combined with regular practice.

Practice tests serve two purposes: diagnostic (identifying weak areas) and performance (building stamina and test-taking rhythm). Early on, take full practice tests untimed to see which topics need work—your tutor uses these results to create a focused study plan. As you improve, take timed sections and full tests to build pacing and endurance. After each test, review every question you missed or guessed on, not just the ones you got wrong. Your tutor can help you analyze patterns (Are you rushing? Misunderstanding question types? Lacking content knowledge?) so you're not just taking tests but learning from them.

Test anxiety on Quantitative often stems from either unfamiliar question formats or lack of confidence in your math skills. Tutoring addresses both by building genuine competence (so you trust your abilities) and exposing you to realistic test conditions repeatedly. When you've solved similar problems dozens of times under timed pressure, the actual test feels familiar rather than threatening. Tutors also teach mental strategies like recognizing when you're overthinking, using process-of-elimination confidently, and knowing it's okay to move on from a hard question. Consistent practice with a tutor transforms anxiety into familiarity.

Beyond strong math knowledge, an effective GMAT Quantitative tutor understands the test's unique logic and strategy—not just how to solve problems, but how GMAT constructs trick answers and tests reasoning under pressure. They should diagnose quickly where you're losing points (careless errors vs. conceptual gaps vs. pacing issues), adapt explanations to your learning style, and teach you to think like the test-maker. They also recognize that GMAT math is about efficiency and strategy, not just correctness. The best tutors combine content expertise with test-specific experience and the ability to build your confidence alongside your skills.
