Eric
Certified ACT Math Tutor
Eric
BA University of Michigan
1+ Years Tutoring

Earning a 36 ACT composite, Eric approaches the Math section as a pacing and pattern-recognition challenge as much as a content test. The first 40 questions reward speed and accuracy on pre-algebra through coordinate geometry, while the final 20 demand quick thinking on trigonometry and matrices — and he teaches students to shift gears between those two phases deliberately. His method turns the 60-minute time crunch from a source of panic into a manageable strategy.

6+ Years Tutoring

After scoring a 36 ACT composite, Sreya reverse-engineered the Math section into the handful of concept clusters that appear most often — coordinate geometry, logarithmic and trigonometric identities, and probability. She teaches each cluster with timed mini-sets so students build both accuracy and the speed needed to reach the final ten questions with confidence.

Mathew

7+ Years Tutoring

Scoring a 35 ACT composite means Mathew knows how to navigate the math section's time pressure — especially on the later questions involving matrices, logarithms, and trigonometric identities where most students lose points. He breaks each problem type into a quick decision framework: identify what's being tested, eliminate traps, and solve efficiently.

Sophia
BA Yale University
6+ Years Tutoring

Most ACT Math questions test algebra and functions concepts that strong English students already use intuitively — proportional reasoning, pattern recognition, translating words into equations — they just need someone to make that connection explicit. Sophia earned a 36 ACT composite and tutors both calculus and algebra alongside her English work at Yale, so she bridges the gap between 'I get it conceptually' and 'I can execute it in under a minute per question.' That cross-disciplinary fluency is especially useful for the word-heavy problems in the middle of the section where reading precision matters as much as math skill.

Raveena's bioinformatics program at VCU is essentially applied math — algorithms, statistical modeling, data structures — so the algebra, probability, and function questions that dominate ACT Math are territory she navigates daily. She scored a 35 ACT composite and uses that experience to teach students how to read each problem for exactly what's being tested, cutting through the extra wording that eats up time on the 60-question sprint. Rated 4.9 by students.

I am a chemistry/math tutor with hundreds of hours teaching both subjects. What separates me from other tutors is my fantastic attention to the learning styles of different students, and my ability to attune my teaching style to each individual student. I am a big believer in letting students utilize tutoring time in the way they believe best, and I try to make myself a resource more than an instructor, which reinforces good study habits as well as lets me help the student with subject material. I will be attending the University of Michigan to major in Mathematics in the Fall.

Pratik
BA Cornell University
8+ Years Tutoring

Pratik's 35 ACT composite came partly from treating the Math section as a pattern-matching exercise — most of the 60 questions recycle the same algebra, coordinate geometry, and trig setups in slightly different packaging, and learning to spot those templates is faster than re-deriving every solution from scratch. As a premed biology major at Cornell, he's stayed immersed in quantitative coursework (biostatistics, chemistry problem sets, physics) that keeps those core math skills sharp and ready to deploy under time pressure.

Furthermore, I am also flexible with content/styles of sessions and can change the focus or style (ie: content review, homework help, general conceptual lectures, etc) accordingly to meet individual needs. Outside of academia I enjoy camping, hiking, reading (books and science papers), playing video games, and watching sports (basketball and football). I also have experience in assisting people with "mental blocks", testing anxiety, and related feelings of academic failure. I am open to sharing both my personal experience through my academic journey as well as hearing yours and offering advice if so desired. At the end of the day, I love to learn and it brings me happiness to be able to help others have that same feeling of success in academics.
